Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality. It's a rewrite of book one, but Petunia was disgusted by Vernon, and married a professor of philosophy, IIRC.
Camels, much like dogs, cats, and other domesticated animals, are constantly pushing their boundaries. The phrase "a camel's nose under the tent" is indicative of a camel that is attempting to find a way inside the tent so that they may eat the, most likely, food that has captured their attention with its scent.
This would be applicable to the Drumpf administration because they are, much like the camel, using a method of "throw everything at the wall and see what sticks," as well as a method of overwhelming the media with birdshot. Namely, if you're creating 50 stories a day, and doing 50 things a day, then the media and the government can't keep up.
Again similar to our camel that has enough strength to tip the tent over, and create a royal mess, in its attempt to get in.
Edit: First time I have heard the phrase as well,.but that is the meaning I would take from context.
They just illegally fired, and replaced the joint chiefs. What makes you think they aren't going to arrest and replace all the democratic representatives and senators?
We're already past The Reichstag Fire
He will be trying to make The Fediverse illegal in the US within the next 6 months.
I happen to live close to a couple of universities and have been friends with some of the CS faculty for a number of years. I generally just tag along with them.
That appears to be a Macintosh 128K and I can confirm that the one my dad got in 1984 still functions. It's not really useful for much these days, but it does work, and you can play Math Blasters, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, and it even has a monochrome paint program.
TIL The Baha'i Faith doesn't exist. You are being tankie-ish with this gatekeeping. We have exactly two options. No more, no less. Until we can get rid of our first genuinely honest mistake, FPTP will consistently make the vote a decision between literal evil, and harm reduction. I vote for harm reduction, despite calling them and telling them how to be better once a week. I don't have a better option, because sitting out allows fascism to take over.
Please tell me, a former USN Captain, an entrepreneur, and a finally retired food Safety manager, IT manager, and QA manager, as well as a literal Jack of All Trades, a master of a few, and a literal Nuclear Power Program Electronics Technician Instructor, what the ever loving fuck I can do? I am not allowed to be part of a political party, I'm only allowed to vote, protest, and take up arms against threats to my community.
Do not give tents directly to people in Fremont, near San Francisco. Give them to the charitable organizations, or you may face fines and arrest. The Fremont City Council has decided that homeless people aren't people, don't deserve help, and it is a crime to try to help them with any camping supplies.
Where in the fuck did I say anything like that? Stop projecting your own shit on to me. The Democrats are a corporatist right wing party that I only am willing to vote for because the opposition is literally fascist. Just because I am stuck in a broken system doesn't mean that I support it in any way other than harm reduction. Try and look at my name again before you assume shit about me.
