Lol when I lived in Texas you had to pay for fucking trash pickup. On the upside, I was able to read everything at my library branch over the course of a summer.
I think you mean that you enjoyed the Freedom to pay for trash pickup.

I live in a high tax state and have to pay a private company for trash pickup. Recycling is through the city and they stick a charge on the water bill every quarter.
We have private trash/recycling companies here. I hate it.
Where did the Early Retirement thread go?

Fetal personhood law having (possible) unintended consequences in Florida:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2023/02/22/pregnant-woman-fetus-jail-roe/
Norris’s argument, which posits that Harrell’s “unborn child is a person as defined under the Florida Constitution and United States Constitution,” is reminiscent of the concept of fetal personhood, the belief that a fetus is a person entitled to constitutional protections. The notion has picked up traction and shown a surge in relevancy since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade , which had guaranteed the right to an abortion, in the summer.
“Absent immediate release of UNBORN CHILD from the custody of Respondents,” the habeas corpus states, “UNBORN CHILD will be likely brought into this world on the concrete floor of the prison cell, without the aid of qualified medical physicians and paramedics, and in the presence of violent criminals.”
On Tuesday, Norris filed a response to the state’s motion to dismiss the petition, reasserting that the fetus is a person and that it has no other legal relief because it is not charged with any crime and thus has no ongoing court cases under which to file claims.

More exciting Aussie news.
And buried in the article:
Ellis’ injury comes after Australian porn star Keiran Lee recently revealed how her co-star Angela White nearly died while filming a sex scene.
Lee, a popular British adult performer, claims Angela, 37, was rushed to hospital with a burst appendix after filming the hour-long sex scene in 2013.
‘I put her into hospital and this was actually not on purpose,’ Lee, 39, told the Pillow Talk podcast last week.
‘We were shooting content and… we were going at it for over an hour. After that, I’m like ‘See you sweetheart, lovely day’’, he recalled.
Lee, whose nine-and-a-half-inch penis is reportedly insured for $1 million, said he was shocked to learn that his first scene with White had left her complaining of abdominal pain.

Although there is often only about a 10-15 degree difference in air temperature between my former town in NH and my new home in the DC area, I see today that it is snowing in NH while it’s currently 78 degrees in DC 
Raining cats and dogs with pretty good wind on this side of LA County. Snowed at my kid’s middle school yesterday. My house is at roughly 1000 feet of elevation so there’s an outside chance we could get some flakes here.

According to Weather Underground it’s snowing just up the hill. I put a star on my house’s rough area.
It’s cold and dry in Seattle and I’m getting popped every time I reach for a light switch or door handle. Hate this time of year and considered posting this in the non-political anger thread.
