I think the whole 'destroyed the planet's ecosystem and annihilated themselves in war' might overshadow anything like that

Reply to comment by aristidedn in Makeshift sign over FDR Drive, NYC that reads: Arrest Trump by supercoincidence
Yes, I know this...When I questioned the poster he couldn't tell why he wanted an investigation. So he was uninformed and parroting. He was the anti Trump version of Tucker Carlson.

If you spray for less than one second there's still gonna be calories. The zero is due to how they're allowed to round calories.

Trump is currently under investigation by the Manhattan GA for tax crimes, under investigation by the NY State AG for tax crimes, under investigation by the Fulton County DA for election-related crimes, under investigation by the DOJ for election-related crimes, and under investigation by the FBI/DOJ for national security crimes.
And the above doesn't include any of the civil lawsuits he's facing.

Reply to comment by Dylsnick in My thermostat uses the expansion/contraction of a drop mercury to conduct electricity and trigger when to turn off and on. by Iain_MS
To be fair mercury is pretty magical if you don’t think about how toxic it is.

I'm more interested to know if Gertrude was any relation to William Faulkner!

HVAC tech here. You're all wrong. It's magic. Don't ask questions, just pay us to wave our magic wand and fix shit.

It's called a mercury switch, used to be pretty common.

Her obituary says she had 8 children and only one predeceased her. She died in 2020 so im certain there is somebody near the house where this was found that would be interested in having this document!

The mercury doesn’t expand and contract. The mercury vial is mounted on a bi-metal coiled spring that causes the vial to tilt during a temperature change. When it does, the mercury blob rolls to the other end of the vial and opens (or closes) the circuit.
