I can’t seem to find The National Chicken Council’s 2024 Wing Report to view how they counted a wing. The wing of a chicken consists of 2 muscle groups which are usually divided and sold as ‘wings.’ Each chicken would (usually) have 4 such wings; meaning it’s only 362.5 million chickens. Even if they’re counting whole wings it’s only 725 million chickens. 4 billion does seem to be an exaggeration.
Run for VP with crony as pres. crony resigns. Wasn’t elected as President. Loophole!
Some states allow counting for early/mail in/ absentee voting before election day but they all prohibit release of counting information early.
do you have to say it while flipping your finger up and down over your lips?
Oh, no! Not again!
Missed an opportunity to title it The Minecraft Family Robinson.
I’ve been thoroughly enjoying the Alexandrite interface and it has what you’re looking for in a collapsible menu.
“It comes from a very ancient democracy, you see…"
“You mean, it comes from a world of lizards?”
“No,” said Ford, who by this time was a little more rational and coherent than he had been, having finally had the coffee forced down him, “nothing so simple. Nothing anything like so straightforward. On its world, the people are people. The leaders are lizards. The people hate the lizards and the lizards rule the people.”
“Odd,” said Arthur, “I thought you said it was a democracy.”
“I did,” said Ford. “It is.”
“So,” said Arthur, hoping he wasn’t sounding ridiculously obtuse, “why don’t people get rid of the lizards?”
“It honestly doesn’t occur to them,” said Ford. “They’ve all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they’ve voted in more or less approximates to the government they want.”
“You mean they actually vote for the lizards?”
“Oh yes,” said Ford with a shrug, “of course.”
“But,” said Arthur, going for the big one again, “why?”
“Because if they didn’t vote for a lizard,” said Ford, “the wrong lizard might get in. Got any gin?”
“What?”
“I said,” said Ford, with an increasing air of urgency creeping into his voice, “have you got any gin?”
“I’ll look. Tell me about the lizards.”
Ford shrugged again.“Some people say that the lizards are the best thing that ever happenned to them,” he said. “They’re completely wrong of course, completely and utterly wrong, but someone’s got to say it.”
“But that’s terrible,” said Arthur.
“Listen, bud,” said Ford, "if I had one Altairian dollar for every time I heard one bit of the Universe look at another bit of the Universe and say ‘That’s terrible’ I wouldn’t be sitting here like a lemon looking for a gin.”

Digital age verification is only advocated by people who don’t know how the internet works. All it’s going to do is drive usage away from regulated sites to unregulated ones.

summary of the bill:
child support may be retroactive to nine months prior to the date the child is born if the order is entered within the first year after the birth of the child.
Even shitty lawmakers think of things like that.
I thought that was cool so I read the wikipedia page you linked…and that’s not what he did.
Carnegie’s funds covered only the library buildings themselves, and Carnegie gave library buildings to cities on the condition that the cities stocked and maintained them
He built the buildings but required the cities to pay for the upkeep. We want it the other way around. The libraries already exist but someone has to pay to keep them running.
It’s fire stations right? There were those laws that let you abandon children at fire stations without repercussions.
There are already non-EU members that are members and participants in Schengen.
