I remember hearing all the boomer "take my wife...please! Ole ball and chain" jokes growing up. I fuckin love my husband. I love being married. I feel bad for people who think resenting their spouse is the default. I get to touch butt pretty much whenever I want.

I didn't say she ran the show. She does the things her brother can't do without ruining his likeability. Everything she does is with his complete approval. She currently sits in the highest government position ever occupied by a woman and is in charge of all DPRK's propaganda (including her brother's public image) and she is the second in command, reportedly responsible for running the country when her brother is medically incapacitated. Kim Jong Un's kids are still too young to take power in his absence and if he dies before they come of age, Kim Yo Jong will rule in her brother's place.

Here is an article that states Kim Yo Jong called repeatedly for the collapse of the Joint Liason with South Korea office building before it suddenly...did.

Here is one: https://georgetownsecuritystudiesreview.org/2018/02/21/burying-our-heads-in-the-sand-female-participation-in-political-violence-the-kim-yo-jong-story/

There are also several books published detailing her brutal rise to power. Jong Un is the happy go lucky benevolent dictator who brought skiing and computers to North Korea. She's the one who blew up a building she had a meeting with South Korea's leaders in to make a point about where their diplomacy was headed.

I imagine Kim Jong Un doesn't want his soldiers spending time in Europe unsupervised before returning back to DPRK. Wouldn't surprise me if the order came from him to Putin.

EDIT: the order probably came from Kim Jong Un's sister, she's the brutal one. But it no doubt has his stamp of approval.

This looks great! I'm gonna give it a try one day.

I separate by the kind of detergent and cycle a thing is run on.

Gym/sleep t-shirts, denim, towels all get a hot wash with oxi-clean and fabric softener because I love the smell come at me bro.

Elastics - things that are mostly elastic/spandex/polyester - socks, underwear, leggings, sports bras. They get a hot/cold wash with a pre soak and extra rinse. The they get the free and clear detergent that washes cleanest and leaves no smell.

Daily wear/delicates - gentle cold wash with woolite with low tumble dry or hang dry. I only ever have like 4 of these with each wash. Generally the nice, more expensive stuff I wear in public that I want to last a long time.

I don't care what color anything is.

Only if he did it in Washington DC, on federal land. If he was in Delaware or Maryland or any other state (not Native American Reservation) they were probably state level drug offenses.

That... I do not have an answer for. πŸ˜₯

Drug related offenses are overwhelmingly state level crimes. The office of the President can only pardon federal level crimes. This is a feature of our system of checks and balances, not a bug.

Andy Beshear has the ability to pardon state level crimes, which counts for an overwhelming majority of drug related offenses. Biden did the same thing as far as his federal level powers allow.

He lied on the form, doesn't matter why, it was a crime. He came to an agreement to plead guilty with the prosecution that was thrown out. If he were anyone other than the president's son, it wouldn't have been, and he is at personal risk from a justice department with no accountability or integrity and a mandate to punish the soon-to-be president's political enemies, only because he is the soon-to-be-former president's son.

This has nothing to do with drugs.

Complain to your congressman about your drug problems, the president has no authority to resolve them for you.

I don't think he was ever arrested for it?

 
 

Just out of frame is a monstera I'm pretty proud of (my husband got one at the same time as me, and mine has exploded. His has...not died).
