Can he replace the Fed chair arbitrarily though?

Biden doesn't control the fed. It's an independent entity.

This is something I'm currently struggling with. I rent a house and the roof is leaking in two different rooms. Problem is that last time I had the landlord do any repairs he increased my rent by $300 a month. I know that having a leaky roof is damaging his property, but it's only a minor inconvenience for me at the moment.

I'm not about to spend an extra $6,000+ a year just to preserve his property when I can keep it from bothering me with a tack, some string, and a pitcher for the water to go into.

Do you honestly think Biden is making the argument that China will pay for these tariffs? So far he's been pretty clear that it's about giving American companies an advantage here, not about making China pay.

I'm sitting here wondering.. Do you think a bidet uses the water currently in the bowl? Or that it sprays through that water? Because it doesn't.

I'm seeing quite a few strings there around the nozzle and fan ducts. Another thing that can cause that curling is wet filament, which will also cause the stringing. So you might also try drying it.

Do you see the same curling with other filaments?

This can sometimes be caused by uneven cooling. I was able to resolve it by using a fan shroud that cools on both sides of the print.

You do realize that lots of people have friends that perform parenting roles with their kids, right? E.g. Couples who are friends that each babysit for each other.
The event of the friendship ending has the same psychological effect on the children as having a poly partner leave the relationship.

A lot of these imagined "harms" and weird situations are regular events that people already experience. It's the defamiliarization of seeing it in a setting that you perceive as weird that makes it seem harmful and/or weird.

It was pretty clear during the annular last year. Drove down to Lynndyl and had a great view.

Expanding on this it could be that women deal with catastrophe (e.g. SA/rape) much earlier in life so later catastrophes are perceived as imminently survivable.
