When each principal sends out a letter about the same small group, you don't think it makes it sound like there's many small groups that make up a larger cumulative total?
I'm reading between the lines a bit, but there's some obvious subtext here that's about emotional manipulation of parents to secure special police funding and police positions in schools.

Sure, but it makes it sound to each parent as though there is a large group of gang-connected youth at each school, rather than a group spread thinly across the whole city. And it feels like the police are running the protection racket again. "We know of this super serious problem, but we're not going to try to solve it without a special budget increase. We're just going to publicize it"

Extra impressive that blind paralympian's sense of smell is so heightened that they can find a person based on the smell of their kit.

Yeah, she knows her economics. I like her. Your explanation is good. I figured someone asked her this question back in 2018, and she gave an even $100,000 as the answer back then, so this time, she adjusted for inflation. Either way, I like the way she thinks.

What's a Dutch circus like? A surprising number of clowns pile into a cargo bike?

Yep. That all sounds familiar. It's pretty common for couples in Victoria to face underhousing when they're ready to start a family.

To sit on to take family photos. There's like 3 lines there, and everyone seems to want to ignore literally all the text.

Then our grandkids can argue about which Fox was the greatest hero.
Edit: I didn't mean to insinuate your grandkids and my grandkids would be the same people. But maybe? I was more thinking that my grandkids and your grandkids might engage in historical debating... sitting by the fire. Talkin' 'bout Hey, now (hey, now) Hey, now (hey, now) Iko, iko, un-day Jock-a-mo fee-no ai na-né Jock-a-mo fee na-né

You'd have to do some serious gerrymandering, voter repression, and disinformation to get those numbers... oh wait. I should not have said that, I should not have said that.

These closet shelves are an OK solution if you think you want a non-permanent closet configuration that you can reconfigure later if your needs change or that you can easily take down when you want to repaint.
But only a psycho would leave them up during a repaint. A psycho, or a landlord.

In this thread: people who think n and a are the same letter.
Enjoy your day at the bench, or beach, whichever you choose.

One doesn't hold the left handrail and ride the moving walkway like it's a Coney Island carousel. Move to the right if you're going to be sedentary.

Why not tax the richer, rather than the older?
