Etymology. African-American Vernacular English (General American would be baby's daddy) 1990s, popularized 2000s; compare baby mama. Possibly from or influenced by same term in Jamaican English, from Jamaican Creole baby-father, alternatively due simply to grammatical similarities between AAVE and Jamaican Creole.

My father was shipped by force of law to the Aleutian Islands to defend America against a Japanese invasion in 1942. The Japanese had an A-Bomb program, a biological warfare program, and even a death ray program using microwave technology. Yoshio Nishina, a close associate of Niels Bohr and a contemporary of Albert Einstein. Nishina established his own Nuclear Research Laboratory and built a cyclotron in 1936, In 1938 Japan also purchased a cyclotron from the University of California, Berkeley. Most of this info was kept secret after WW2 as we allied with Japan against the Soviets.

But true, Hattians have a dietary culture of eating cats, not so much dogs, and the people of Springfield, OH are on video record of their concerns and the stress the refugees have caused on local resources, including the police.

Oy a "settler colonialist" in the thread. Russia. In California there's a "Russian River" with a history of colonialism, only turned back by another colonial power, Spain. "Killed", check out the ethnic cleanings in Tajikistan during collectivization by the Soviets. WTF?

Nuclear electromagnetic pulse by China, Iran, or other enemies would NOT hit cities, but explode in low earth orbit which could take out communication and electric grid for days, weeks, months. No direct civilians deaths or property destruction. Drones are in the mix for WW3, but the real weapon is EMP. The US and the Soviets tested this outcome in the early 1960s

It's also a large "image" model, as it was recently used to create a photograph entered into an Art competition and won.

Yoo's Amicus Brief makes a compelling argument that a private litigant, like Norma Anderson, has no legal standing to use Section 3, and cites the Griffin decision "almost" precedent. John, loved reading about Chase and the Giffin case. I wonder if I could disqualify any judge using Section 3? Perhaps Trump should claim it against Jack Smith?

The Bank Term Funding Program offers loans of up to one year in length to banks, savings associations, credit unions, and other eligible depository institutions pledging any collateral eligible for purchase by the Federal Reserve Banks... These assets will be valued at par. The BTFP will be an additional source of liquidity against high-quality securities, eliminating an institution’s need to quickly sell those securities in times of stress.

"Native Land"? Where was Yasser Arafat born? How did the British Mandate's influx of money affect migration in the region. Is Tel-Aviv occupied land? The Hashemites failed, they lost the Hejaz to the House of Saud, there's been no peace since then. Report on the State of Palestine presented to the Right Honourable Mr. Winston Churchill P.C., M.P. by the Executive Committee of the Third Arab Palestine Congress. Jerusalem, March 28, 1921.

Stacey Abrams just set the stage in a recent campaign speech to again create doubt by saying even as record numbers vote in 2022, there's still "voter suppression" in Georgia.

Must read "Report on the State of Palestine presented to the Right Honourable Mr. Winston Churchill P.C., M.P. by the Executive Committee of the Third Arab Palestine Congress. Jerusalem, March 28, 1921." - Library of Congress

LOL, the will of Allah means all non-Muslims are 2nd class citizens under the Law of Dhimmi, something my family lived under for 500 years. Dhimmi. a member of any of various non-Muslim communities to whom conquering Muslims offered protection and the right not to convert to Islam in exchange for surrender, loyalty, and the payment of annual tribute. Hamas wants to bring that back in spades.

@bsmithhammer NO NO I'm all in, the new laser IRON BEAM is a great addition, too, and the amortized cost is a lot less. Great Stuff

@andersrasmussen5015 Agreed!

@samwise1790 Price well paid, but Israel does make decisions on when to use it based on the projected hit. If it's farmland they may not pull the trigger.

@bsmithhammer Agreed, the info was just info, nothing implied.

I was using Wordstar in the early 1980s at a law firm in San Francisco. Didn't think you guys were that old, huh.

don't think they are "freebasing" anything but facts. "Based" is a drug culture term.

Stephen, try Vaseline for the lip smacking, please.

Niall, not 1968, but as Newt said, it's 1972. I worked the McGovern campaign in SoCal and agree.

Show me a trusted judicial democracy in the region, and I'll have that conversation. Jordan still has a medieval King? Turkey and the UAE are backing genocide and ethnic cleansing in Ethiopia, and take a look at Syria, Lebanon and Yemen. Conversation? With whom?

Guidance from Biden admin said inflation "transitory", SVB made all in bets on that guidance, did not hedge, then panicked. We could all see the inverted curve?

If someone believes their one vote is at risk of not being counted decides not to vote because of that fear, I'd say that's a good thing. That person is most likely not having coherent thoughts about other things, too.

1.8 million Arabs are Israeli citizens, 21% of the population, they serve in the Knesset, the Supreme Court, and the IDF. One Million Jews were displaced from Arab and Islamic countries in the region, what reparations for that "ethnic cleansing".

"Teach Real Labor"? No, have them get up at 5am to deliver those newspapers by bicycle like I did in 1966.

Xi is a monarchist, he's grooming his daughter to take over the heraldry. Only those descended from those who swam with Mao in 1956 across the Yangtze will be chosen. That's how the hierarchy of the CCP works.

How Ironic, Jews and the Hashemites war against Turkey with the Allied Powers in WW1, now Turkey wants to "administer a mandate" in its former region of Palestine. LOL. In mid-October, following the UN Security Council’s failure to pass a Russian resolution calling for an immediate humanitarian truce in Gaza, Turkey proposed a “guarantor system” to end the fighting in Gaza and to secure a lasting Palestinian-Israel peace. Turkey’s initiative envisions foreign governments—including Turkey—serving as permanent mediators in the conflict and keeping Israel and the Palestinians in check over possible violations of any peace agreement that is reached.

Careful, think why the NYT likes this guy, and look at a different view of post 60's "stagnation" with Peter Thiel and Eric Weinstein https://youtu.be/nHXEjdYwoYE

Trump is a product of the media elites. He did movies with Whoopie Goldberg, appeared on Oprah and Phil Donahue, and was even featured on an episode of Seinfeld. Trump is their "post-truth" Frankenstein, and now they are with torches and pikes in the village attempting to kill him.

Trump is not "an existential threat" to the founding institutions, but to those who insist reality is a social construct, framed by personal truth and "stories". The fantasy will be destroyed by reality.
