Kamala should start running against/debating with Nicky Haley and just ignore Trump, sends a signal and would likely result in an actual debate on policy… Imagine that!

The Supremes already declined to hear the case, it would be a little crazy if they changed their collective minds on that and took up the case.

Another thing to consider: nicotine accelerates caffeine metabolism. Therefore, if you are feeling irritable and have recently ingested caffeine (coffee, tea, energy drink, etc.) then you can expect a craving for the antidote.

Think of all those folks who used to hang out at coffee shops, smoking cigarets. Up on the cup of coffee, down on the smoke. Just riding the roller-coaster all day.

Which is weird, given that it's totally not a racist country… /s

It helps to contextualize this work in the movement it was part of: Dada. After the invention of photography the fine arts community was dealing with a crisis: painting was the primary form of art, and painting was meant to capture reality faithfully. Photography turns that on it's head and we get the beginnings of modern art with the Ashcan school in 1900 which makes everyday life, including the lives of the less fortunate, an acceptable subject of painting (previously it was nearly all portraiture, landscape and scenes from history or fiction).

Less representative paintings give way to abstract art, and just 19 years later we see that artists are pushing the bounds of what is considered "art". Duchamp and company were asking the question of "what is art" with each new piece and the overall movement of Data and it's descendants such as Fluxus has investigated that boundary for more than 100 years.

You would have to go on a long Safari deep in the mall to find something like that… Look for the bitten fruit from the forbidden tree.

Vegas is basically a big virus mixer, all super spreading all the time!

Having dated the polar opposite of that, it sounds very fun…

Purina? I hope they test on animals!

I've been noticing more and more basic grammar errors in reporting, even from relatively reputable news sources. Not usually misspellings, but words out of place or awkward phrasing, seems like there are no editors any more
