When the country's own citizens are the "adversaries", that's a highly fucked up government and government agency. If the people are the enemy the country is dead.

Silence is unnatural anyway. If you move to a rural area with no neighbors or traffic in sight, you'll still hear plenty of noises inside your house. Rather than rage about distracting noises, just turn on the radio or something to dro

After reading this and realizing that glycerol is processed in the liver like ethanol, I can't help but wonder if slushies will also cause adverse effects with medicines that interact poorly with alcohol.

China isn't interested in immigration. In a relatively liberal and democratic country like the US, immigration is a boon because we don't care all that much about political or economic stability and are used to not having it. In a

It's just a joke. A bad joke, but just a joke. Republicans are afraid to add Puerto Rico as a state for fear of it voting Democrat, they would never allow Canada to become a state even if you wanted to (or rather, 10 states), because

In ancient China, power and social status were gained through official positions, and merchants were considered the lowest of respectable occupations. This led to the exams attracting many of the "best and brightest" to government

That would make American businesses very happy, but what would be so good for China? There's a reason they made the decision to artificially suppress domestic consumption in favor of building a strong manufacturing base and export-focu

Mangroves aren't large or particularly tall or strong trees. Climbing one to sleep in would be difficult for even a child let alone a large group of adult men.

It's not that hard to understand when it's not fast like the fishing in bright light part you mentioned IMO. I've had much more trouble with some very thick NYC accents and Caribbean accents (although I put that down more to

Suggesting that she was "bought off" by Russia without even the slightest bit of evidence is pure idiocy. Attacking people as being foreign agents for not fully falling in line with the orthodoxy is really what I consider to be &

That's not how polls work though. A poll shows how a sample of people say they'll vote. An ideal poll would have the same proportions as the final popular vote count.

Trump got ~77M votes, not hundreds of millions. Sexism was probably a small part of why Democrats lost, but much more important reasons were the economy, alienating their base with their Israel policy, moving to the right on immigration ins

That's just not true. Even the New York Times had Trump projected to win on election day '24, before any state had finished polling.

If it were specifically done to make a political point, having the attack come from Ukraine could be symbolically important. I would expect a harassment DDOS to try to cover their tracks, but someone protesting Musk might purposely not obfu

In the US, we covered a lot of old world colonial abuses in AP Euro and World History, but they are only briefly mentioned in regular courses. Irish and Armenian genocides were given special focus, probably mostly due to the demographics of

I very strongly doubt this attack was state-sanctioned if it came from Ukraine... but it could very well be a Ukrainian vigilante. As seen by arson of Tesla dealerships in the EU, many are upset about Musk's involvement with the curren

Anything would have worked in 2020 as long as it had a pulse and wasn't named Trump. We got Trump policies with Democrat faces - there's no need to wonder why Democrats and left-leaning independents didn't rush out to vote

Every state has right-to-farm laws. Most only protect commercial farming, but not all and sometimes the definition of commercial is rather loose, so it might be worth looking into.

I'm sorry, but when you argue that Ukraine losing some territory is bad enough to call for the extinction of the human race, I can't help but think you're not sane enough to be taken seriously.

Emotionally it makes perfect sense, and it's great for propaganda purposes, but rationally it has no appeal. How does making Russia into an enemy that needs to be obliterated and destroyed for the safety of the world help anybody or se

In the case of nuclear war, everyone loses everything . For most of us in the US, and I'm guessing most people not directly impacted by the war, that's not an acceptable outcome (not that Russia seems to be able to take any more

It's also the best argument for nuclear weapons you can find. If every country had nukes, invasions wouldn't be very likely for states with any semblance of rationality.

This is basically just a roomba with trays on it, right? Are they being unloaded by the customers? The article gives the impression that it's just carrying the trays and a human waiter is unloading, which seems like just a very expensi

We can start by not separating everything into two sides, one of which we must take. Look at each conflict as a whole rather than a sports game with a winner and a loser or a Good and an Evil or a My Team and Their Team. Maybe one side real

You're not even wrong. No sane person has said we can't judge Nazis for what they did and believed. What we shouldn't do is set ourselves up to fall into the same trap by using binary narrative framings.
