I'm a total wimp and I went upper outer thigh. Got it at a reputable place, but spur of the moment with a friend. Very little pain, almost always hidden, but as a bonus, gives me an excuse to hike up my shorts/skirt when it comes up in conversation.

So IANAL, but doesn't he have to prove the negative, that those claims aren't true (i.e. that he doesn't have money stashed in tax havens around the world)? Presumably by disclosing all of his financial information to the defense...

I don't think he thought his plan all the way through.

Also, the parent company of one of the stations he's suing, Sinclair. Good luck with that buddy.

I saw Minecraft and Stardew mentioned already. But not the ultimate time sink, Kerbal SP, especially with mods and documentation. Though I'm not sure 5 years is long enough, can I request an extension?

The full story is almost better than that. As told by his brother:

"Well, this old librarian, she says, 'This library is not for coloreds.' He said, 'Well, I would like to check out these books.'

"She says, 'Young man, if you don't leave this library right now, I'm gonna call the police.'

"So he just propped himself up on the counter, and sat there, and said, 'I'll wait.' "

[The police and his mother were called]

"And the police officer said, 'You know, why don't you just give the kid the books?'

"And my mother said, 'He'll take good care of them.' "

So, the librarian reluctantly handed over the books. And then, Carl says, "my mother said, 'What do you say?' "

And Ron answered, "Thank you, ma'am."

Full story: NPR

As a former teacher of younger kids, that feature probably makes them 10x less likely to be forgotten/lost. (The size is "youth 10-") Agree it's kinda gross, but kids are wired differently.

As an adult who grew up on sesame street and the muppets, it's just the unabashed wholesomeness that I love. They were preaching inclusivity when I was growing up in a time/place that tried to force conformity. They weren't cool, they were themselves, and that's never a bad message for kids (or adults).

The newer movie (The Muppets 2011), co-written by Jason Segal, who also grew up with The Muppets, captures that vibe perfectly IMHO.

Nice try OP, but I'm not clicking on that Rickroll link.

It's the "cheating" statement that's extra infuriating. This isn't a damn football game, we are trying to choose the best possible person to lead the country. YOU [the GOP] made the case that Biden wasn't that person and now you're mad they [the DNC] listened?

But it worked out so well for MyPillow...
