The issue is that de minimus is for the *importer* (the person receiving the package) not the exporter. Temu are mostly a warehouse overstock clearinghouse, selling off the dregs of industrial mass-manufacture for pennies on the dollar rather than destroy/waste them. 🤔
It is wild that Congress is even involved at all. Apologies for my ignorance, but has this ever happened before? Where the Federal Congress is so involved in the details of a case against a private citizen? Is that even in their scope?
It it like "Suthuk"?
Good! Make those motherfuckers regret ever thinking about it, much less building it! Get that shit dismantled immediately, if not sooner. 😡
Good theater staff know to fill the bucket partway, butter, then fill up and butter again. Some will even add a little at the bottom. 🤔
Come and work for us. You can do from home it in your pyjamas, there are no work socials ever and we will never, ever, refer to our workplace as a family.
It's like people completely forgot we used to have to build giant walls to keep our settlements safe before alliances started doing that instead.
America is a big *pair* of continents. 😜
Btw: you dont have to feed him dog food or worry about dog mess. An occasional soul will do. (Sung in joseph techicolour raincoat style)
I'm sorry, respectfully, his name sounded like "Pack My Food" and you're just gonna drop that as a throwaway? May he be blessed but please tell me he worked, like, a falafel truck in his youth!? 😅🤣🙏
A man with three buttocks!
This reminds me of that 90s movie, "Blank Check" where a kid becomes a millionaire and buys a sick mansion and throws ice cream parties. It would be cool as, like, a kids' museum but seems *awful* to live in.
They do have the au-cat-city, though. 😋
I don't need my own personal baby donkey, but I'd sure love to cuddle somebody else's for a little while. Guess my puppy will just have to do. 😜
Really tired of people who chose to follow an awful person claiming they were "brainwashed". Bitch, no, you let unethical bullshit slide and now you don't want to be held accountable for it.
I think it's the largely culture against education, personally. Even when taught, students often ignore information or just don't bother to retain it. That "When am I going to use this?" attitude that we seem to encourage.
They want you to think he's the problem and that it'll all be over if he just dies already. Meanwhile, they're consolidating real power and making irreversible moves in our faces.
So a video of NGs standing around while clearly-identifiable Metro PD arrest people?
H0RNY ACTIVISM pt. 795 Evangelicals: Women have long hair because the bible says their hair is glory unto god. Men aren't attracted to women with short hair just like women aren't attracted to men with long hair. *Sexy Jesus has entered the chat*
I don't know that I've ever seen a man who looked better with short hair than long. 🤔
I wanted so much to be a fan of it but just couldn't get into it. It's like the Hardy Boys to Buffy's Nancy Drew and I'd already watched that show, as it were. 🤔
And what are you doing to help the unhoused? Nothing? Oh no, you're actually making things *worse* for the most marginalized people in society. Shock, a rich white dude hates poor people. 🙄
If you're arrested in Illinois protesting the planned ICE HQ in North Chicago, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at sheryl@weikallaw.com. As always, I will take as many cases as I can.
Huh, neat!
Wait, y'all call Putin "Poutine"!?! Like the food? (I presume that's just the francophone spelling, but he's cheese curds and gravy on fries forevermore in my mind, now)
Oooooh, what's the symbol on your arm!?!
Asking somebody to keep it down after 10pm isn't being a cop. Busting down the door and spraying indiscriminately (while possibly justified) would be. 🤔😜 (Hope you got some sleep)
And now I follow you. As above, so below.
Yeah, duh, that's the point of the post. 🙄 jfc
You know, it's a huge pain in the ass it prove you're not dead once a Certificate says you are. The DC Coroner's office could do the funniest thing…
Good! More of this, please!
Genuinely misread that table as a wall and radically changed what's going on here in my mind. 😳🫣
Wait, is that the same bear-spray cop from the BLM protests? You know the one who was spraying people who were already seated in cuffs?
Unfortunately, that's not the case, as is covered in this video: youtu.be/TwPLqGkYnBA?...
The library isn't about honor, it's about record-keeping. As such, we need his library more than almost any other. We must record and read and understand what he did and why so we can prevent this ever happening again.
Can we please, as a society, stop pretending Heaven is an actual place? It's fine if a personal belief helps you stave off the existential horror at the inevitable end of your own consciousness, but that doesn't make it real. All punishment/reward happens here, during life.
"What if housing was a right?" is the most capitalist-assed question. Tf you mean "what if?" 🙄
Does The Blotch know why Dib's head is so big? 🤔
Apropos of nothing at all, I'm sure.
Just because you haven't seen something doesn't mean nobody's doing anything. 🙄
We literally are not, wtf are you talking about?
This! "They asked me to go against my conscience so I'll get out of the way so they can hire somebody without one" is a hell of an attitude to have in the face of fascism. You resign because of *your* wrongdoing, not for standing against your erstwhile boss's. 🤔
If you treat a person like they are only capable of unspeakable evil, what incentive do they have to even try otherwise when they will be punished the same no matter what? It doesn't make the evil OK, it just makes you complicit in it. 🤔
Which is why it would be helpful if they did. The longer and more loudly we define what a group of people will do, the more likely they will be forced into that action. If we allow ourselves to believe Republicans don't have to follow him, they can believe it, too.
My husband devours several light-novels a week through Kindle Unlimited.
Once again, a wealthy white man gets all the credit for a Latin woman's work. 🙄
But KDH is just Korean Frozen…? 🤔 It's great, but it's not *that* original.
Like… there was an actual report of something like this, but there was no talk of people having been intentionally positioned to commit these heinous crimes.
I think we need to commit to violent resistance against these masked kidnappers posing as law enforcement. They need to learn the meaning of fear or they will never stop escalating their open trafficking operations.
"That annoying start-stop feature…" is he talking about the thing where the pump stops when your tank is full? 'Cause I've watched somebody overfill their tank before and we do not want to go back to that. 😬
It would be pretty helpful if some Republican governors could join in as well.
And the century of chaos and devastation that usually follows their end?
Oh get you a partner who does headbutts and nuzzles; it really is the best.
Uh… nonce means pedo, though. 😬
Beware of pirates at that first stop. I've heard they'll leave you alone if you're an orphan, though. 😜
They're people. Fellow US citizens. And they aren't the ones doing the fascism, actually. They're mostly just standing around and, as pictured, serving the community. I assure you, Guardsmen do not deserve your ire. 🙄
I think you're confusing The National Guard with ICE. Guardsmen are under contract, like soldiers, and don't have the option to just quit.
I mean, you do have to get the right kind of beans for it to taste good, but yeah, pretty much.
Go fuck yourself.
Came here to say this.
You know what? Even though I don't care about them, I'm really happy for them. I genuinely wish them well and hope they only ever fall more deeply in love with each other.
real event today: found rare bee rare bee flew directly into a plant stem, fell to the ground I laugh "Stupid bee!" Bee lands on new coneflower, posing beautifully I step close enough to photograph for detailed ID Sandaled foot lands directly on a yellowjacket nest FUCK
But did you laugh and think, "Stupid me!" 🤔😜 (I hope you got away before the yellow jackets got you!)
Good for both of them. They look like they're very happy together and who doesn't want a big strong man who can show his delight about a squirrel? Kronk af and we should all be here for it.
Seeing an awful lot of white men on these lists…
Why are people still acting like Newsom is somehow our only hope for 2028 when 1) it is 2025 and 2) Pritzker is RIGHT THERE
Agreed. I might text my son a question, but I've also made it clear that no message from me is ever worth getting in trouble at school. Texts are meant to wait.
Those are your literal words. I can accept that my interpretation of your meaning was inaccurate, but you can't say that's not what you said. 🤷 I can also admit I'm just really sick of Christianity and my response was more about that than your message which was unhelpful.
Unless you have weak muscles/joints! Mine made me feel like I was either gonna suffocate or dislocate something. ☹️
You said, "Americans… need this sword now," which implies that it should apply to all Americans rather than just Christians, who definitely have never had a problem cutting people out of their (or all) life based on their beliefs. 🤔
If fucking children hasn't stopped people supporting Mango Mussolini, what makes you think anyone will give a shit about a thoroughly debunked rumor liberals made up? The President is just a puppet and his vice-boy will only continue that tradition.
Yeah, Christianity got us into this mess. It's Christians who are currently in charge. If your personal faith empowers you to fight fascism and love your neighbor, *good*, but please just keep it to yourself. It has no place in our government or policy.
Hypo-hondria… 😜
TWENTY YEARS AGO I posted about how easy it is to get around any sort of flag-burning law/amendment/executive order/whatever, and here we are today, having it have some relevance. Also our current president is a feculent spoon. whatever.scalzi.com/2005/06/23/c...
People need to stop being offended that other people know more than them.
I stg some of you have never interacted with an old person… they bruise easily, especially when a bunch of men with egos keep squeezing the shit out of each other's hands. This is the most nothing of all possible burgers. 🙄
She's in the UK. 🙄
Surely that's illegal.
He knew arrest was the inevitable consequence of this action and did it intentionally. Please frame accordingly.
Right? If they don't want to be the second most hated group in the US, they can just quit. There are plenty of other jobs available.
They have been doing it for years. I assure you, he doesn't *lead* jack shit. He's doing as he's told, signing what's put before him with no concept of what it contains, and blundering through international crises with all the grace of a newborn giraffe (kerplop!). He is a puppet at best.
I said bigotry, not just racism. In an ethical society, open bigotry would be an immediate disqualifier for service. It's not accurate that both parties are equally trash or that Dems don't do anything. Some folks are trying to serve the US, not just their party.
I'm not talking about projections or estimates, I'm talking about the proportion of the total population who actively voted for him. ~1/5 is that number.
It's actually pretty easy to teach kids self control, though, which is better than just taking things away. (I have a teenager with ADHD who's never been in trouble at school at all, much less over his phone).
Republicans aren't bowing to the President. They're doing what they've always wanted while the guy with the veto power is on their side and letting the President take all the "credit"(blame). He continues to cede all of the real power to the fascists he's surrounded himself with.
The weird thing is people commenting on another person's health. I could not care less. Focus on what this regime is *doing* and how much worse it will be if he dies in office and actually competent, intentional fascists gets the reins. 🙄
That's wild cause a judge just stopped them from banning a whole list of books last week. I doubt this will end differently. I'd stock it anyway.
If we're going to start socializing corporations like this, maybe we should socialize our national oil reserves and actually get paid for our natural resources like the Gulf States do. 🤔
He did nothing; they embarrassed themselves over him. It's a fine syntactic distinction, but it places the responsibility where it belongs.
No, Republicans win because way too many people either are bigots, are ok with being led by bigots, or can't be bothered to vote to against bigots. Remember that this President was only elected by 1/5 of the population.
None of those things are related to the fact that it is incredibly difficult to sue the federal government and win. Fuck's sakes, does nobody ever look at the conversation before responding? 🙄
No, roughly a fifth were cool with it.
Not sorry from the US, you're entirely correct. I fear for fans and players coming from other nations while we have masked gestapo roaming the streets, kidnapping people for being brown and detaining them in horrible conditions before randomly deporting them somewhere they've never been.
It was in 2020 while everybody was hunkering down at home. 😬
I love how she said, "so, of course, the homeowners returned fire," just so nonchalantly. Like, duh, you guys, wtf did you expect to happen, dipshits. 🤣 It sucks two people died, but they fucked around with the wrong folks.
He is not the federal government.
I wasn't claiming dogs don't have complex reactions to mirrors. That's just not the way a dog's mouth moves. 🤷
Happy birthday to your Dad!
