The ultimate answer is that nobody ever truly knows what is going on inside another person's head.

Yeah, I have them on my truck, and they are just naturally bright. If I'd had the option to not have them, I wouldn't.

The first sign I got old was not wearing shorts in snowy weather anymore.

Both. Pipelines are more efficient (read: cheaper) delivery systems than ships.

Not to say the ones she prevented would have mattered specifically here in MA though.

Would be surprised if someone didn't buy that spot up.

Nah, Bloomberg has a massive ego. Baker has always had a pretty obvious disdain for national politics.

If his last name was anything other than Kennedy, he'd be thrown aside.

Lmao, the dude killed a woman. He should be memory holed as the piece of shit he was.

I think they tried this once, and what tanked it was kids going to school in the dark.

I believe it just started as a means of "maximizing the daylight."

So when you wake up at 6-7AM, the sun will be up, whereas if we didn't move the clocks back, it would be dark until almost 8-9am.

As a general rule, if I am going, say 75 in the left-hand lane and we are passing everybody, I'm making the dude riding my ass wait until I am done passing people.

Well, the issue is created by too many people crossing illegally (hence the asylum claims, as it forces the system to accommodate them in the meantime). I'm all for people wanting to move here, we just need to disincentivize people coming in droves and ultimately doing it the right way by applying etc. We just can't handle it, and it's not really fair on anyone involved. Nor is the status quo at all sustainable.

As the person who also replied mentioned, most border towns are way way overwhelmed. They're doing their best to help both the people crossing over and those towns who really do a ton to help them.

I don’t think a lot of people who live far away from border states realize the amount of effort localities put into trying to help these people. It's just too tall a task to do it well. ICE is equipped to turn people away, not house them.

In most cases, it's ICE. Most individuals make asylum claims, so they get shuffled around while awaiting the appeal of that claim.

Not so much a 'who' so much as a 'what' with federal bureaucracy.

Eh, OP does mention he signed an agreement. Unsure of the binding nature of it but that might complicate things.

If your employer is paying you, they're going to expect something out of you. You're not forced to stay where you are. Find somewhere that will give you what you want. I could leave for an hour every day on my lunch break if I felt like it.

Get a job where your break is your own time.
