What?! The administration run by a man who is famous for not paying people didn't pay some people?!

I don't really understand my parents and they don't understand me. And I don't really understand my kids and they don't really understand me.

I feel like the only person who really understands me is my wife.

"that was a different London than you have today. Today you have people being stabbed in the ass or worse... it's crazy," he said.

Donald needs to stop believing all the bullshit Fox News and their ilk are spewing out. Because the only thing involving asses in this situation is Trump talking out of his (yet again).

So FIFA got rid of the bribery charge from this administration by bribing this administration with a pointless award. Cool, cool.

Thank you for this! I need to come up with some stocking stuffer ideas for my wife to get me. And I've been struggling. But something like this would actually be useful and fit the bill very well.

Did he bring up the epic war between Aberbaijan and Albania again? Or the war between Albania and Thigh Land?

and questioned whether certain nations can remain reliable allies

Funnily enough most of Europe has been asking the same question about the US under Trump. I guess Russia has got a psychological win (even as their military fails dismally in Ukraine) by corrupting a key player from the inside and then pitting old allies against each other.

There are usually two factors that can cause auto insurance rates to change:

  1. Something happened to you personally that caused your rates to change. Like if you were in an accident (and especially if you were deemed at fault), or if you're vehicle changed in some way. There are other factors too, but those are probably the most common ones.
  2. Your zip code was reassessed and is now deemed to be more or less risky from an insurance perspective. This decision is separated from your personal actions, but it can still have an impact on your individual rates. And there's no really transparency on how or why the insurance company comes to a conclusion on this aspect. Which sucks.

My guess is the second factor is thinking into play for you and your rates.

Just like they were ready to fully conquer Ukraine, fight?

I keep reading on articles, even those from this year, that Signal has an offline communications ability.

The articles talk about "Signal Offline" as an app. But that seems the same as the main Signal app?

Additionally, is there some functionality in Signal that allows you to connect with nearby users in the event when WiFi and cellular networks are down (like via some sort of a mesh network approach or Bluetooth)?

Edit: Thanks for the information to those who replied.

Damn. Poor Trump. First he had to deal with a rift with his new (former) bestie Musk when everyone started saying Elon was the real power behind the throne. And now his two original besties have iced him out.
