I’m waiting a month to see how public reception goes. Give the public a chance to marinate their response before I try it out.

I dunno if you’ve tried, but I’m here to tell ya, cobble stone streets will absolutely stop speeding really quick.

Oh for sure Israel is handing out some commendations. I’m just curious how they managed it because there could be implications that arise. If it was a company helping them, there could be financial repercussions, if it was the CIA there could be political issues.

They had to be designed or modified to explode. Which makes it a big question of where they came from. Lots of legitimate ways Israel could have done it, and a lot of ways that could involve violating laws and treaties.

The green party only exists because the GOP keeps giving them money. The only time anyone ever hears a damn word out of them, is when they’re showing up to split the Dem vote for the GOP.

Down right idiotic. I’m all for some better gun control, but this is just a stupid idea.

If Texas wants to put a bounty on women, we should be able to put a bounty on guns. It’d be a lot more effective too.

When did corporate Dems like Kerry and Clinton get confused with progressives?

Don’t bother, if they can’t leave a message, you didn’t want to talk to them.

I heard Hawaii, but that could be completely wrong.

The best restaurants in the world are in London. Of course they don’t serve English food. The Brits just knew to bring the best stuff home.

Yeah, but if everyone hadn’t played the game, that book would cost a thousand dollars.

So the headline just says physical edition, not PC or anything. Which had me thinking they printed out a book with all the maps and NPC stats and such as an adventure module. Obviously not true, but maybe it should be?

Look at you with your color vision being all elitist. Some of us old bastards don’t see them pretty rainbows so much any more.

It turns out the specialized medical needs are kind of special, and they fly people to where there are facilities when they’re needed. And only affects a special portion of the population. For everyone else it doesn’t matter.

For fuck sake people crossed the entire US in a god damn wagon while risking being shot at by random tribes and eaten by bears. What’s stopping people now is that they can’t afford food or a place to park the damn wagon without getting harassed by the cops.

Moving to more rural areas is what causes rural areas to build hospitals, and doctors to open clinics and offices. There are plenty of jobs everywhere that just involve sitting on your ass in front of a screen, or standing behind a counter. Even in rural areas.

Growth doesn’t just happen. People have to go places and build. UBI would make that process a shit ton easier.

Just letting the planet get hotter and hotter will have large risks for the natural world. We don’t need to know there are consequences, we need to know the comparisons.

They’re playing on the latent puritanism in US culture. The only reason it’s done is because it pushes peoples buttons and draws interest. The other options are what you see over seas, where either free speech is harshly curtailed, or people get over it, and advertisers stop because it doesn’t cause concerned citizens to lose their shit any more.

I knew it was water, the actual name of it though I had zero recollection.

Those are all the problems for places that don’t get the heat the AMOC moves. It doesn’t list the problem for the places where that heat doesn’t leave.

This is why I try to use authoritarian -ism when I’m not being lazy. The reality is it’s nothing to do with left or right, it’s about control.
