  • 2002’s “A Very Muppet Christmas” is an “It’s a Wonderful Life” style movie where Kermit temporarily wishes himself out of existence and is allowed to observe the resulting timeline. Shots of the Manhattan skyline in the main universe show no Twin Towers as expected, but there’s a shot that clearly shows them in the background outside alternate Piggy’s window. Wasn’t an intentional bit of canon, just an little detail that arose from the set designers not realizing the Towers were in that old window backdrop they used, but the implication is hilarious





  • Conspiracy theorists are wild. Here we have Jeff Epstein’s best friend, who admitted he had the same “On the younger side” tastes (in addition to on his own time bragging that if he found someone attractive he sexually assaults them and he’ll get away with it because he’s famous, but you aren’t allowed to use that confession against him because he was in a locker room when he said it), and was in charge of the prison where he died, wished the woman who trafficked for him well, explicitly says he probably won’t release files on Epstein because of “false accusations”, and they don’t bat an eye for even a second. But if it was anyone but Donald any one of those things individually would have them screaming that it must mean something.













  • Some of those 7.25s will technically be even lower, that’s the federal minimum that will apply to pretty much all jobs, but they still have it on the books that if they could, they’d fuck you over even harder. Georgia’s for instance is 5.15 which can come up in some niche circumstances, and some don’t even have a listed minimum




  • Depends on the state. Looks like Carter is registered in Georgia. According to an article from 2020 when Republicans were bald face lying that long dead people were voting a lot, someone from the Georgia Secretary of State’s office is quoted as saying secrecy rules don’t allow rejecting a ballot when a voter dies before Election Day.

    “You can’t go back and get that ballot back out. It’s just physically impossible, given the privacy rules in our state,”. May or may not still be accurate, or may have never been accurate, but that’s what the first article I found when searching says.
