Least surprising revelation ever.

Wow. Haven’t seen a proper medieval-style Blood Libel in the wild for a while.

Either that or he’ll vote for Musk’s Epic Based Lulz Party

Dude slathers himself in antelope guts, jumps the fence into the leopard enclosure, then complains about his face having been eaten.

There’s probably a market for targeting people matching not only a demographic category but the combination of one and attempts to keep it private, like religious conservatives who browse gay porn in incognito mode or seemingly progressive people who have right-wing views they keep secret.

Threadbare. In cities like NYC, it approximates European transport, though is somewhat more dysfunctional. Elsewhere, you have things like “commuter rail” (like a regio/S-bahn, only with next to no off-peak service, running solely as a shuttle between CBDs and dormitory suburbs). There’s Amtrak, but it’s slow and infrequent and runs on tracks owned by freight railroads, and often is delayed by hours from waiting for freight trains to pass. Bus services have a stigma, associating them with poor (and typically non-white) people, to the point where people who have a choice avoid them, and vote to minimise the amount of their tax money that goes to pay for them. And in some Republican states, the government has scrapped even buses, replacing them with Uber vouchers mailed to households.

So yes, DB is creaking and needs investment to bring it up to scratch, but its service levels (even when wracked by delays) are utopian compared to most of the US.

The party could also split the Democrats, or at least split some of their billionaire patrons off, with “reasonable” “centrist” money no longer going to the “sensible grownup” corporate Dems.

What’s the frequency for forklift/crane certificates or similar? Driving a car should be regulated similarly (with the proviso that it is accepted that many blameless people will be found unfit to drive, and society should accommodate them by means other than lowering safety standards).

“Adrenaline-style policing”: new policing methodology just dropped. What are the pros and cons of it versus, say, Peelian community policing?

Cats’ hearts are also on the right-hand side of their chests, the opposite to where humans’ are. Not sure if this correlates with handedness.

All/most of them, or a few mediagenic alt-right examples the press can trot out as proof of “young men want fascism and Latin Mass” when they run out of MAGA-hatted Ordinary Americans in flyover-state diners?

Breaking the US from the failed 2-party system would require replacing first-past-the-post voting with at least ranked choice, if not a proportional system like Hare-Clarke, and probably scrapping the Electoral College altogether. Which may require constitutional amendments, or at least a partisan Supreme Court sympathetic to more democracy that would Chewbacca-defence it through regardless of legality.

If the US still had free and fair elections, they’d be worried

Every country has its Big Balls.

As the age verification technology would forcibly deanonymise all EU users, opening a huge new vein of behavioural surveillance data to the zuckerbots.

If the US dumps NATO, that’s all the more reason to increase defence funding. Either that or start learning Russian.

You love to see it.

Loyalty to the leader, and implicitly knowing whom to ratfuck to climb the ladder.

Sometimes discretion is the greater part of valour.

If you’re going to name a cat that, adopt two and name the other Weed or something.
