Overnight Open Thread (20 Feb 2016)

I think this movie poster pretty much sums up the primary season so far.

Laws of Economics

No matter how good it makes you feel to raise the minimum wage, the laws of economics still applies. Hey Seattle, how's that $15 minimum wage working out for ya?

Back to the 70's

The bad old days of NYC are back. So what self defense weapons are legal to carry in NYC? Harsh words? If only they had a knife free zone.

Moonlight Sonata

A-10

The U.S. Air Force still plans to prematurely retire the A-10.

Tech Companies

They're all evil. Is twitter silencing conservatives? Google now has an extension that will change pro-life to anti-choice. Facebook, well they ban anything seen as conservative. I really wish there were some non-progressive options out there in the tech world.

Buy Food Ethically, Unless It's...

Question of the Day

Heh. People will try anything. Can you really get high from smoking dried-out banana skins?

AoS Lifestyle

Drinking more coffee may undo liver damage from booze. Sweet.

Compared to no coffee consumption, researchers estimated one cup a day was tied to a 22 percent lower risk of cirrhosis. With two cups, the risk dropped by 43 percent, while it declined 57 percent for three cups and 65 percent with four cups.

Racism

So having a picture taken of you in the middle of a facial is now considered racist.
