I think this is exactly what Alito meant by the "domestic supply" of infants available for adoption.

Costume Quest and Costume Quest 2 would be something you could play together. The player character is the twin of your choice, a girl or a boy, on a mission to save their sibling. You would have to read it to her and probably solve the puzzles, but she would be able to do the fights once you got going since it is turn based. It's very kid friendly.

We have about 25 years worth of experiments with it in various states, so it's been well studied. Legislating is a skill that needs to be developed, just like anything else, and a bunch of term-limited newbies have no incentive to do anything except get ready for the next thing, which only enhances the possiblity of corruption.

A mandatory retirement age is a different suggestion than term limits.

None of that has happened in the states that have term limits. If you think Republicans, no matter how long they have been in office, are going to start putting anyone other than Federalist Society drones on the courts, I'm not sure I can have a good faith argument with you.

Term limits empower lobbyists and career staffers and encourage legislators to give less of a shit about their constituents. I know "career politician" is often considered a dirty word, but having competent, knowledgeable elected officials is a good thing.

Was it? I'm a few episodes behind, but maybe I'll catch up tonight. Overall, it felt like one of the most egregiously overproduced seasons I can remember, so it was hard to stay interested.

All the wildlife in my relatively small, suburban yard really makes me happy.

I found myself in a similar place a few years ago. I ended up putting what was left in a very large, heavy planter that I could take with me when we moved.

I had a cat like that. She was 100% stupid baby at all times. I tried on a fabric baby carrier/wrap and put her in it to see how it worked before my first human baby was born, and she was completely content in it.

It's very good at self seeding, so I started with two and now I have lots.

Not yet, but I'm expecting them soon in North Jersey. They prefer my swamp milkweed, but I don't have great conditions for it so it's not very big.

They aren't the most cooperative photography subjects for group photos, but I'm pretty sure I saw bumblebees, honey bees, and small carpenter bees.

Yes, he was too little to understand he was missing out when I started, so my older kids got some of my first efforts. He borrowed my very first one while I worked on his once he realized he was the only kid without one.

He has two older siblings and was very patient with me (by 4 year old standards) while I got it done.
The pattern is called Gigi Square by QuiltCakes. ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/e152a057-b02b-4720-bb6e-037a88409e19.jpeg) ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/aec58061-23d7-4f8e-8461-50fe035a50de.jpeg)
It's not a great picture, but he ran when I tried opening the door.
I used recipes from Rose Levy Beranbaum's Cake Bible. The cake is her classic chocolate butter cake, baked in three 6 inch pans rather than two 9 inch pans, then cut in half. The frosting is her chocolate silk meringue with 3 egg whites rather than 2. I eliminated the water and heated the egg white and sugar slurry over simmering water after I failed twice to get sugar syrup into my stand mixer at her suggested temperature.
I was able to take the piece with the handle that was still around his neck off so he could come out with some dignity.
