Take away democracy and it just leaves the other thing
I guess so and inflation threw off my intuition since the rate keeps accelerating. Cleopatra in '63 for 31 million would be over 301 million today in inflation adjusted dollars, and avengers in 2012 at 220 million would be over 318 million today. It’s staggering how much less a dollar is worth today than just 12 years ago.
It seems like the money laundering that has infested classical art has inevitably spread to movie and TV seasons, over 100 million budgets what the fuck
Is this like the affidavit Comer told the public on Fox ‘news’ was evidence of Biden committing a crime, then realizing it was misinformation fed to him by a Russian operative he completely fell for?
Just another reminder of the hypocrisy that Russia receives weapons and munitions from several countries and doesn’t restrict their use in Ukraine territory the way Ukraine has been restricted with NATO supplied weapons.
Why hasn’t the city released the full body cam footage?
I’m 30 feet tall and usually travel with a big blue ox
I’d have to go with a Meshuggah - Demiurge acoustic cover from a few months back, parts of it keep getting stuck in my head
Sounds like too many landlords, not too many immigrants.
Appointed by the person who ran every business he touches into the ground, including a casino multiple times. I don’t think efficiency means what either of them think it means.
With increasing temps less wool, more short pants with long socks, coats replaced with lighter material sweaters and jackets, and please some hat option other than baseball cap or newsie.
I once saw a documentary film about a man in Ohio who ripped a guy’s arm off in an arm wrestling contest then turned into a fly due to a teleporter mishap.
Demagogue is the old word for influencer, people that prey on emotions and prejudices to manipulate people to agree with them politically.
I use an alarm captcha, simple math problems so I can’t accidentally dismiss the alarm instead of snooze. I also keep a similar sleep schedule throughout the week so I’m sometimes already awake a little before the alarm and I have an alarm to remind me when to go to bed.
We judge others more harshly than ourselves or our friends and family, it’s often a tribal artifact of the environment our species grew up and evolved in through its infancy that has in part informed our acceptable behaviors as a social species who relies on groups for survival (justice, altruism, fairness, social contract, etc).
Sometimes it’s hyperbole, sometimes it’s incorrectly treating people different than ourselves as less than instead of different to, and sometimes someone violates common morality so abjectly that capital punishment is a popular acceptable outcome.
With the phone itself I miss a headphone jack (using an adapter USB c to 3.5"), no hardware keyboard, and no replaceable battery.
In general I don’t turn my phone off often enough, usually only once or twice a week I should turn it off more often.
“So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and its purpose in the service of your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people and grovel to none. When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.”

They still need to register under FARA though. Also you can’t claim ignorance if you’re actively trying to hide evidence like saying it was for phones instead of salary:
"Those shell companies initially received their funding from RT, and the subsequent payouts to Tenet were shielded not as salary payments but for electronic merchandise such as “BUYING GOODS-INV.013-IPHONE 15 PRO MAX 512GB.”
A corrupt-mayor-hiding-body-cam-video-evidence says what?
Also: “New York authorities have made reducing crime on the subway and buses a top priority following a series of violent attacks, robberies and murders. A crackdown on fare evasion is part of that push.”
One of these things is not like the others.
