These plantiffs will have to come to my states courts to certify any judgement. Who of those whom live in other states are going to Calif law to dictate their lives ? I will write my state politicians to sponsor a bill to quash this behavior, make these actions null and void in our courts.
More or less: The pot calling the kettle black ?
If you research this you will discover St Pius is a quite conservative sect based in Switzerland, all their masses are in Latin and LBGT is not acceptable unless one remains celibate. On the other hand, the Vatican welcomes the LBGT community, and they had also some rather serious issues over decades with pedophilia.

Reports are he suffered a serious, life-threatening stroke in November 2024, which left him with significant health challenges including impaired speech, concerning memory loss, and initial confinement to a wheelchair.
Flip the script ? Appears the US will look worse by extraditing him in his current health state, instead the US will become the pariah.
Yup. US should keep withdrawing NATO based troops and equip to help pay for this "fine", compensate Google. The more the EU persists, the more the US withdraws, until down to ZERO if needed.
Hmmm. Well, I experienced "the stench" of typical Russian life in 1994 entering the apartment of my fiancee, and attempting to use the bathroom. They always kept the door shut, because the stench was unbearable. I learned this was common in Russia, guess they did not have access to bleach and the willpower too use it often.
When I used to advertise with Google Adwords, I protected myself from what I saw in posts by others complaining that Google "running wild with overcharges".
I would buy only prepaid CC's with say a $200 limit. It worked well for a time, until Google finally figured out a way to distinguish prepaids from regular credit cards. When they stopped taking the prepaids that's when I stopped buying Adwords, but I also noticed I had no reduction in business, it was virtually the same as before.
Nowadays if the business won't take a prepaid with a limit - - - I don't want to do business with them, cannot trust them as far as I can throw them.
I have not tried crypto, but seems that basically a one time crypto payment would be a fixed amount, once.
For me, giving someone your $5,000 credit limit credit card is just like putting a stack of 50 one hundred dollar bills on the table and telling them, take what you need, I trust you. Well, no I don't.
Also, I discovered that if a business is not observing your request to stop re-occuring charges on your card, like broadband internet cable companies, web hosting co's, and so many others, it was a waste of time calling them and complaining, or writing letters, etc. It was WAY easier just to call up my credit card customer service and report the card stolen, then the number is cancelled for good, they send a replacement card next week. I even ask for and receive "expedited" service, they overnight the new card to me.
I have been lied to multiple times, sellers claiming to sell me seeds for the relatively rare pink flowered version of "Pride of Barbados", most off Ebay, from foreign countries.
All of them germinated and grew to the common orange-yellow version.
What PROVEN new tech are these companies offering to eliminate oxidation hazards (and fires) from cheaper aluminum wiring ?
This was a big problem in house wiring years ago, why is it not still a risk, seems you see in the news a lot more stories about EV's burning up than gas cars - - even with copper wiring ...
Automotive industry people clam new special fastening methods and connectors with anti oxidant greases., but is the public being "setup" as beta testers ?
It is widely known that as electricity flows through and heats up the wires, aluminum expands. As it cools, it contracts. Over time, these temperature changes cause the wire to loosen at connection points, unless they are spring loaded or other special techniques.
There is no incentive from the banks and industry to offer consumers a very limited credit card so consumers can protect themselves. Like a $100 credit limit, (which I would pay an annual fee for - as a sort of insurance).
There are just too many sketchy online merchants out there who might just attempt to charge your card way more than the agreed upon sales price, then there are those who I disfavor who "pre-authorize" your card for $500 or more, like rental car companies. Every 6 months or less I call in one of my credit cards to the issuer, one at a time, so I have one still active, and tell them it was stolen. This "flushes out" your old credit card no. from hackers and sketchy merchants, gives you a brand new number. I also almost always only deal with brick and mortar merchants who off "touch to pay" (the chip), never swipe, since I have had my cards hacked at least 3x from swipe, it's old tech and being scammed at gas pumps nationwide.
