It’s a small business and there aren’t any sort of laws regarding naming conventions or titles/roles that must be filled. Sometimes ‘owner’ is who runs the show after all

Makes sense considering many protections don’t extend to civil matters, and he wasn’t even acting in any sort of governmental role at neither the time of the incident which compelled him to make the payment nor at the time of the payment itself.

The payment happened in October and this may be a shitty analogy but imo it’s like someone running a dozen red lights because they’re late to a police officer job interview. I mean, it may help them get the job but they’re acting as a private citizen and not in any sort of governmental capacity and it’d be absolutely bonkers for them to argue that they should retroactively have any sort of immunity on the basis that they did in fact get the job

I like watching the changes. The world and everything in it, including me, isn’t in stasis. People get old, I’m getting old, wild to look back at ‘young me’ or think of a close friend at a time when they were totally unfamiliar. My hometown is 10x larger and looks wildly different but I can still point out some unchanged spots when I go to visit.

I wish I could stop time and do whatever but I acknowledge that I was thrust into this with no say in any of it, so I just strive to be at peace with it I suppose

Torx is cool and all but all the touted virtues such as less cam-out go out the window if you have to drive them in at wonky angles, like tight fitting spaces. If you gotta angle the driver it’s not gonna seat well at all, apt to jump and wear out your bit. And if your only T20 rolls away and falls under a deck, yuck, 10mm problems.

Phillips has a place and that place is ‘a wonky place to hold a power drill’. That said I’m a huge fan of square head because it’s a happy medium between those two

Any important document I have is named ‘yyyymmdd(number)(briefdescription)’. Sort by name or date, I don’t care

They’ll be thinking the same thing tho and if there is a greater than 20% chance of them pulling the lever it’d be worse in terms of losing family members than not pulling at all.

But in terms of overall death, not pulling the lever is 1 or 4, and pulling the lever is 4 or 13

The outcome from both levers pulled is so steep that it really makes no sense to pull the lever
