A reminder that the taxes in question were levied to recoup the costs of French and Indian War, which the colonists started.

Multiple people are typing…

Is the sustainable jet fuel in the room with us?

Ackshually, he never specified that any of those were wishes.

Nah, Sleeping Dogs is on Steam.

Intelligence analysts used the advanced technique that insiders refer to as “basic pattern recognition”.

Market traders are probably the only entities on the planet who are still surprised by negotiations falling through yet again.
