My high-school friend group adopted "it goes" from our French class ("Comment ça va?" "Ça va!", roughly meaning "How goes it?" "It goes!" being the common neutral greeting taught in French classes) and I slightly resent it being described negatively here.
The context of those passages, as I recall, is basically that "Jesus is gonna come back any second now, so don't bother with worldly concerns like marriage and making babies. Just devote your life to being a good Christian and leave the fornicating to the heathens, unless you absolutely can't live without getting laid on the regular." It's hard to understate the degree to which the early church was basically a doomsday cult. They were certain that the Rapture was going to happen in their lifetimes, and that short time horizon had a big impact on how they thought their society should be organized.
I wonder if the lack of decisions in some of these cases may betray a three-way ideological split on the court that makes it impossible to write a true majority opinion?
Something like Kagan, Sotomayor, and Brown Jackson off in one corner saying "actually we shouldn't burn it all down for no reason," Alito, Thomas, Kavanaugh, and Coney Barret in the other chanting "NO CHEVRON DEFERENCE! NO WOMEN'S RIGHTS! BURN IT DOWN, BURN IT DOWN, GIL-E-AD, GIL-E-AD!" while Roberts and Gorsuch are sitting in the middle asking both sides "won't one of you just sign on to this opinion that only burns it down a little bit? We'd like to go home to our nice comfy lives as wealthy white men who aren't affected by any of this, please."
It's the Chicago mob all over again!
Federal authorities raided a home belonging to Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao early Thursday as part of a California investigation that included a search of at least two other houses, officials said.... Agents also carried out searches about three miles to the south at two homes owned by members of the politically influential Duong family that owns the recycling company Cal Waste Solutions, the Chronicle said. The firm has been investigated over campaign contributions to Thao and other elected city officials, the local news outlet Oaklandside reported in 2020.
This one isn't all that far, geographically speaking from the megachurch down in Springfield that brings in tanks and armored vehicles for their conferences on "christian manhood" (pardon the reddit link...)
The American electoral system is turbofucked.
The average American house on a basement will have something like 40 m^3 of concrete in its foundation. If all of it could be utilized, that's still ~12kWhr of storage capacity. Nothing to be sneezed at.
It's French (on account of Exocet and Storm Shadow/SCALP both being French-made) and Exocet is saying "but what would you say to side-by-side with a friend?" To which Storm Shadow replies, "Ah, yes, I could do that."
Yep, but it doesn't change the fact that the most noteworthy targets of Exocets were British, with the missiles being launched by Argentinians.
Double funny that the Storm Shadow is part french, too...
EDIT: Realized they're both technically French missiles and that made it even funnier
Insert Legolas and Gimli meme here, except it's an Argentinian Exocet and a British Storm Shadow.
Hat tip to Kolanaki, I see I wasn't the only one with this idea.
I know I shouldn't be wasting brain cells on this AI-generated boomer-bait, but I have so many questions:
For serious, though, I pointed out after Austin last year that cutting across the entire track at the first turn of the first lap is awful racecraft from Sainz, and got shouted down by Russell-haters.
This strikes me less as fraud and more as a way to stay open to talent that you may not need immediately but still want to be able to add to your organization, in an era when basically nobody sends unsolicited resumes anymore. Like, maybe you don't have a project in need of a Whatever Specialist right now, but it's a field your company works in, and if a really exceptional Whatever Specialist is on the market, you don't want to miss the opportunity to bring them on.
