    I wish that would happen sooner rather than later. If not direct support, then a truly massive increase in equipment and monetary aid. If we won't do the work then we need to get serious about giving them what they need. They're fighting Russia for all of us, paying for our peace in their blood. The Putin regime has to be dismantled one way or another, he's the greatest threat to the whole free world we've seen in our lifetime. Any talk that isn't in support of complete victory for the West is only serving him.

    With the rising rate of alcoholism in the US, it wouldn't surprise me either way, whether you think he's a hypocrite or not.

    I'd say just take the W. It's not your fault. I still haven't paid into my student loan and I've been out of college for many years.

    Still salty that I was approved for forgiveness and the Republicans took that away. So maybe I'm a little biased.

    I wouldn't be worried about any ramifications though if I were you. They'll update you if it's truly important.

    Been seeing a lot of forced birth protesters around here lately this week near our planned parenthoods. Unfortunately I left my bricks at home that day so I couldn't counter protest properly while I was driving by.

    Personally I've found the lowest rates with Liberty Mutual for renter's insurance and Clearcover for auto insurance. I was paying like $40/month for car insurance but it's climbed a good but it's climbed a lot over the past few years. I got new quotes from the other companies and they were astronomical, so I'm still with them. They're newer and only are available via the app and site, which makes sense in an overhead way. But I've not had to test their claim system. I think it depends on your location and situation quite a bit.

    I would recommend not using those OBD devices for the discount though. I tried that once with Progressive and the slightest braking would set it off. Absolute garbage.

    Vollmer Rd railroad bridge in Olympia Fields is 11 foot 9. I take that way to work everyday and it's regularly hit or closed to let trucks turn around https://maps.app.goo.gl/pynCTw7ihv3VBK7w6

    I feel like you're hitting on something. Who cares that much about appearance? If your friends care about whether you're drinking or not to this degree then I would hesitate to call them good friends. My advice is that all nonalcoholic alcohol-like drinks are shit and just drink some tea, coffee, or y'know, whatever you damn well please.
