Why is a state mandate unenforceable in California?

people looking to be outraged (the several women) and have confrontations and people who are all too willing to create situations to bait those kind of people (the "bebe" woman). ? The women speaking to the bebe woman are Trader Joe employees. The bebe woman says (in 2nd clip) "that man" harassed h...

Tried to watch Uncut Gems. Gave up after an hour. I don't get the rave reviews.

Opening day at Trader Joe's in North Hollywood

I'm late to this show. I finished season one. Great show. Needed the subtitles though. I wasn't expecting to see "Chibs" from Sons of Anarchy. Looking forward to watching the rest of the series.

The extra $600 per week on top of unemployment is tax free at least on the Fed level?

I don't know about unemployment/extra unemployment.

There are no Federal taxes on the individual stimulus checks ($1200 per individual, $2400 married, $500 per kid).

I watched Knives Out over the weekend. There are several big names in it, and they play off each other well (with the exception of Daniel Craig, didn't care much for his performance). Nevertheless, it's a light, fun movie.

I'm going the watch Uncut Gems this weekend.

As an aside, it will be interesting to see how the tax season goes next year - a lot of people are going to owe thousands of dollars because they collected unemployment and stimulus money without paying taxes on that income as they got it. The stimulus money is tax free for federal purposes. With r...

Things are a mess in Texas and Florida. Texas Children's Hospital is now admitted adult patients with Covid19 since the surrounding hospitals have no room. This is noteworthy since the Children's Hospital is located in Houston, and Houston has over 80 hospitals. Gov Greg Abbott still has not issued ...

Just finish the series The Last Kingdom (Netflix). Although the History Channel's series Vikings is entertaining, The Last Kingdom is much better.

Yesterday, the cop that shot the black guy twice in the back as he was running away after grabbing and pointing the officer's taser at him is being charged with 1st degree murder, making him eligible for the death penalty. I've seen/read news reports stating the cop knew that the taser had already ...

I am a fan of Fawlty Towers. The writers are satirizing racists through Major Gowan's ironic rebuke (as well as comically exposing casual English racism throughout the episode.) My point was that Cleese/his sitcom should not be lumped together with Churchill and Farage; on a micro-level Cleese criti...

Too many things are being lumped together (which clearly can be seen in the title of the article below). I have only pasted the part where Cleese is mentioned - the final third of the article. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/europe/winston-churchill-statue-boris-johnson/2020/06/12/f1dc4a48-acb0...

Tom Morello has been trending for days. Apparently people are just now discovering Rage Against the Machine are political.

You get no argument from me regarding how assinine the Trump/Church stunt was. The problem here is that in the likely event Trump loses in November, we'll still have inept leadership from the other party that will only continue the Washington political clown show. I would much rather take my chance...
