Being a centrist is dumb AF, imagine thinking the half way point is always right. Statistically itโ€™s impossibly unlikely.

Itโ€™s like believing King Solomon was right, not because it revealed who the real mother was, but that the correct course of action was to bisect the baby.

Good idea! I'll reference you as a design reviewer.

Writing a new extension to grep that provides AI-like results by randomly including and excluding matches. Anyone want to invest in my start-up?

For some rural areas, yeah, it was the only access from home.

Deleting a post about Israel โ€œaccidentallyโ€ killing international journalists because I missed that they had declared them terrorists.

Everyone involved in this genocide needs to be sent to The Hague

This was in respect to someone decrying the brutal ICE raids. Enjoy the well-earned block.

What happens if you donโ€™t do background checks or training for thousands of people and you give them all total authority?

ICE has been caught looting and destroying property at Pittsburgh restaurants. They even tried to break into the safes. They loaded food, supplies and equipment into vehicles

On the other hand, heโ€™s harmlessly doing whatever the hell this is right now. If he got a real job, heโ€™d potentially be ruining a workplace and trashing someone elseโ€™s livelihood. So things are probably best as they are.

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.

I heard about one accident from someone who left the show and as on her way to fly around the world. The mishaps at the show were minor, as far as I know. One had a nose gear failure. Expensive but otherwise not bad.

A little bit of rain, but it wasnโ€™t bad at all. Nothing like last year.

I donโ€™t think Iโ€™ve had a bad one. Polish National churches are a good place to get them. Fry in butter until browned then add a generous amount of onion and sautรฉ until onions are translucent.

This Tuckahoe home won a $1.26 billion contract for an ICE detention center. The owner isn't talking. The companyโ€™s website is dated and largely accessible only via login.

how much of the money from the ICE/tax cuts bill is just going to go to scammers, do you think? www.richmonder.org/this-tuckaho...

Some. I spend more time looking at the crewed aircraft. Last year they had a large self-flying electric aircraft as part of the airshow.
