What I would have done would be that he'd have to come clean about the prank to the girl and apologize. Then as an apology offer money for a fine dining dinner at a central location on his expense from his monthly allowance. He wouldn't be at the dinner.
What a dimwit son, I would have made him do all the chores in addition. 😡
@rbreich The less they are taxed, the more money is left (for them) in the economy. If the right wing complains of inflation, then the solution is to TAX the rich.
The #SCOTUS is merely correcting our misunderstanding of the Constitution. You thought "execute the Office" was about faithfully following the laws? Silly you. Execute means kill and now the #PRESIDENT can kill his office and any laws (or political opponents) he doesn't like. No idea why it took the six of them over 100 pages to explain such a silly little mistake.
@georgetakei I do not see much discussion of the approach of having a conversation with the other person where you explain how their behavior (lack of initiation of social situations) make her feel and giving the other person a chance to talk.

@arstechnica saying we need x or y while suggesting the set of solutions includes cars suggests what we really need is not going to happen. Unfortunately that seems to be what is happening, we keep raising the bar, not realizing we need to start lowering it to get anywhere. It comes down to energy used per passenger mile. This is all well understood. A 2 to 5 ton rolling brick of batteries does slightly drop CO2 per mile but can't scale like mas transit.
