True, but Feudalism hasn't been a powerhouse of global politics as of late.

Each person's hell is unique and personalized just to them. Lemmy already has this ability to create your own hell built into its core design philosophy. Hell is whatever you make it.

Because the public school funding comes from public taxpayer money. This means the school does not get to choose how to spend it since the money belongs to the people. The people have voted and greenlit several pre-approved items for schools to spend money on, but anything outside of that needs to be approved by a vote.

Getting people to vote on this item is a Heraclean effort to say the least. Education budget often is the least immediately impactful thing on the ballot, if it makes it that far. Especially in states with strong traditional religious areas. For example, Puritans don't believe that sports are something that kids should take seriously cuz it's a game (literally something along the lines of: Games can be pleasurable, seeking pleasure is sin you should only seek God, therefore games are sinful). They don't want their taxes going towards such sinful programs so they will always vote against it. This perspective is rooted in zealous obedience and is not something other people are willing to fight against.

TL;Dr It's easier for schools to just get private funding themselves and sidestep the public budget restrictions, than it is to get a majority in the voting pool to approve the vote and implement new school budget item.

I rolled the dice once a day every day for 8 months and then I finally rolled a 12 which proves the dice can learn. Checkmate atheists.

Real fans would find a way to wait for the game to go on sale for $2.

True, a burger queue might be more advantageous.

Ahhh, so we're gestating our young in the corpses of their mothers now? That seems less than ideal.

Why break the ice when we could embrace the cold?

She signed up to be part of a singing contest. She sang, in the contest. Reading the article, there didn't seem to be any issues until she found out that her segment wasn't going to be in the final production 🤔🧐🤔.

~~She also should've figured out travel reimbursement BEFORE paying for travel. You have to figure that stuff out or else accounting WILL take the chance to suddenly change their mind about the rental car they originally provided. This is just one of the unfortunate realities of our current human civilization. You have to confirm first, or you'll be screwed later.~~

Inb4 this mystery bug is just about how it was too easy for users to disable some brand new data harvesting feature that scans anything plugged/connected and logs its data in hidden file on your one drive safely and securly in the hands of the Microsoft corporation.
