If the Chief Justice had any balls, he would deal with it.

Three comments on this. One, as you said, having kids later in life will allow parents to be better parents - be around more, not have to move as often due to financial problems, not have to 'farm out' childrearing to others. Two, if everyone starts having kids later in life, the human race will naturally start evolving towards longer lifespans with a higher quality of life for those years. This is just simple evolution; if the successful reproducers are in their 40s, the people who die early, become morbidly obese or infertile in their 30's, and make deadly life decisions early on will not have offspring and will be removed from the gene pool. Three, this will tend to reduce population (going back to your earlier arguments) since statistically the later in life you have kids, the smaller (average) number of kids per woman. Partly due to the evolutionary pressure above, and partly (I think) because older people tend to make better decisions, and are better equipped to buy/use/understand birth control. Of course all of that requires you fight the idiocracy default.

This example of politics driving SCOTUS recently came to light. https://www.cnn.com/2024/05/16/politics/alito-upside-down-american-flag-house/index.html

In practical terms that simply means that it will fit. But the manufacturer is trying to warn you that anything larger will not.

Thanks, I stand corrected! There appears to be quite a lot of publication bias on this which that study appears to debunk. There is however a hypothesized "Westermarck Effect" for humans which appears to result in low pairings in people who have been raised together as children. I stand by my point though - we don't need religion for morals anymore.

The position of Homemaker is outdated. Dishwashers, Laundry machines, Robotic floor cleaners, Factor food delivery, etc. etc. Pretty much all one has to do these days is make your bed, fold your clothes and nuke some food. Now both parents can make a home.

Always go right to the source. The manufacturers will pick up the phone - Mirage Containers CUSTOMER SUPPORT & SALES 386-740-9222 https://miragesys.com/ - they also have a chat function

I have no idea why Rob has not been here for so long. But I can tell you he has been a regular commenter on the FB riggers forum lately.

Hi 17, I've been thinking the same thing. I'll send him an email & see what he says. Jerry Baumchen

The Lincoln Project has finally turned its attention to the Hitler/ Trump debate. From 7 hours ago Pretty much nailed it.

Doesn't help at all. I can't see the computer monitor because of all the forest fire smoke in the air. Hopefully the wind will change then blow from the south and I can try tomorrow.

I was thinking about this thread, and decided that even though Hitler was undoubtedly in better shape than Trump, Trump would probably win an arm-wrestling match. For one thing, he’s significantly taller. Also, Hitler is dead. Wendy P.
