I guess we'll see if this shows up as the next car-stealing challenge on social media?

They want the government to step in and interfere with a contract between two private entities.

Without prior knowledge? The sites this is being sent to are fully licensed to handle the waste they're being shipped. They signed up to receive this stuff, and in order for it to be shipped, someone at the site needed to give them an affirmative. The TCEQ had to approve the application to be a hazardous waste disposal site. These are private companies being paid to perform a service. All waste shipments should be following all EPA RCRA and OSHA HAZWOPER requirements.
Any arguments from people that say this stuff is being sent surely don't want the government to step in and interfere with a capitalist enterprise, right?

Considering the prevalence for domestic violence amongst police officers, it would be a totally honest mistake to make.

Reply to 'Everybody is cheating': Why this teacher has adopted an open ChatGPT policy by TheDoctorOf1977
The cat is out of the bag, and it isn't going back in. My partner is taking an open approach to ChatGPT in an attempt to teach her students to effectively use it as another tool in their toolbox.

I don't feel much of anything for them. They jumped the shark a long time ago, and I am much happier just not reacting emotionally to any of them anymore. It is so much easier to just cut them off and invest my time in relationships that aren't toxic. Wife, kid, friends...I prefer to invest in people that share my values and aren't completely morally vapid.

Yes, many people do. And now OP is attempting to change the way they consume music by ALSO listening to albums. Both things can be true.

I was constantly bullied by the Evangelical Southern Baptists I went to high school with in South Carolina. I harbor a great deal of resentment, but I have never made threats of violence against anybody that is directly or tangentially associated with the Church.
I'm sorry he was bullied, but he can fuck right off with that bullshit victim mentality.

Look up braconid wasp. They're considered beneficial insects to any gardener and are harmless to humans. This is good biodiversity.
