GROUND ALL BOEING AIRCRAFT PERMANENTLY

Not trying to argue against most of your points, but if you re-read book 1, you realize that people hate Sansa because (at the beginning of the story) she's a little brat who brazenly ignores what her father tells her to do and, in so doing, gets him killed and her entire families' lives (her own included) utterly destroyed (remember that while Ned idiotically warns Cersei that he's going to rat her out, it's Sansa who shows up and provides Cersei with all of the details of Ned's plans, in the process of whining about having to leave the city).

Obviously she grows a great deal as a character over the course of the series, but it's very easy to start hating her early on, and that kind of impression can be hard to let go of.

Not sure why CrimsonSage decided to delete her account :sadness:

The only thing worse than cool long-timers deleting their accounts is when they just go missing one day.

deeper-sadness I'm so sorry, comrade. I hate the way this system works.

My understanding is that the second financial advisor is correct. You should at least start trying to plan for the worst case scenario, and I really don't see another option besides pulling her out of the nursing home for at least a little bit, to buy yourselves some time. Medicaid typically has a five-year lookback, so giving the house away isn't really an option (you're not eligible for Medicaid for 5 years after such a transaction).

I'm very sorry to offer only bad news. I'm not an attorney, but everything I know about these rules suggests that it really is that bad, so you should be prepared to take whatever action you can to forestall losing the house.

Please remove the ableist language and add a CW for the SA reference (or just remove it). Otherwise this is a great comment.

Thousands could hide in the 250 miles of tunnels

How many thousands, Jonathan? There are 2300 thousands in Gaza, after all. Even if we take this stupid claim at face value, it still adds exactly nothing useful to the discourse.

The tiny T-Rex arms, combined with the T-Rex in the background...kinda amazing, ngl

Yeah the new active algorithm is awful. I see a lot of good posts that never get any traction when I browse /new (which I do a lot these days because Active is full of old, stale posts).

Maybe I'll go to the trouble of getting my dev env set up so I can reinstate the old algorithm (someone else was going to do that, but I haven't heard anything about it in quite some time).
