The Jets, amid a nine-game losing streak, just erased a 4-0 deficit in the final minutes in Montreal. Shocker.

Well, it looks like today my state chose a survivor over a pedo defender... thank God...

@nerthos nothing much really... temperature is getting good lately

>my issue mostly with unskilled, not skilled.
most are skilled by necessity to begin with. its not the under privileged of other nations that are legally immigrating

>[h1b]
i agree with you. loads of issues with it too. but h1b isn't the only way skilled immigrants come over, either

>I just think its super easy to not fund programs that pay for it. there are even bigger issues, we should fix those too
yes and yes
im just saying i dont think there are that many programs paying for it. not only is legal immigration into the us not a walk in the park, but uscis is /entirely self funded/
your taxes don't pay for uscis to operate - the immigrants themselves do by paying thousands of dollars in fees

Holy. MF'n. CHIT!

I'm going to try something new.

This thread is a Claim Sales for some vintage books.

Each book will be posted in it's own post, with a price and additional info, obvious problems, etc. If you want the book, respond to the post with "claim" or thereabouts and I'll reach out to arrange shipping.

I'm asking for $5 flat rate shipping within the US for any number of books.

Mostly this will be old scifi paperbacks, but there are some other misc. titles that will enter play as well.

My phone's camera isn't the best, so please let me know if you'd like better photos.

I can take payment via paypal or venmo. If you must, I'll consider cash app.
