I may not be dumber than I was in the past, but when I was dumber I may not have had the ability to know how dumb I was being.
If I'm smarter now I may know how dumb the mistake I've made is and therefore feel dumber than I have felt in the past.

If he stole all of the right shoes, that means everything's left.
And if everything's left, did he take anything?

It makes sense that there would be no evidence considering they almost certainly destroyed all of it the second they got their hands on it.

Who said the books were in English?
Greek and Arabic still exist today and are widely used.

This timeline is already fucked so I really can't make it any worse, so I'd go back just to fuck with the timeline.
Take written volumes on mathmatics, science, and engineering and hand them out in Greece and Arabia a few thousand years ago and see what kind of world we end up with instead.

Has anyone checked in on the conservative communities to find out how they are handling the news?

The people most affected by this in the US are going to be those in the Bible belt, the ones who most vehemently support this administration.

Even that wouldn't have been so bad if they didn't grind flat spots on the elbows to support the table.

I feel like a more realistic timeline for that is 2027 at the very latest

Putatues?

These idiots didn't wear medical masks during, I live in conservative hell and they all wore neck gaiters and kept them under their noses and still bitched that they couldn't breathe.

Iran, if you're listening....

I think it's less about what he's capable of doing and more about what he signifies.
Electing an openly socialist mayor to one of the biggest cities in the country is a huge step, one that could gain momentum and they definitely do not want more of that happening, especially in the house and Senate.
They think if they nip it in the bud now they may be able to get ahead of it, but I think they fail to realize they might make a political martyr out of him instead.

I wonder if he feels the same buyer's remorse about Trump as Tesla owners do about his cars.

I wonder how they'll rationalize "Democrats control the weather" now that the Republicans control all three branches of government

I still vividly remember them holding back Bernie and pushing Hillary in 2016.

Good point.
Let's tie it to the object itself then rather than a physical location. Look at any object and see it's past as far back as you want.
Pick a brick somewhere in the middle and keep going back until the bricks past shows it getting stacked.
Would be pretty cool for things found in antique stores.

But when they don't point it out everyone bitches and says "why won't they call them out on it!!"

See backwards in time from the exact location I'm standing.
How did the Egyptians build the pyramids?
I'll just visit Egypt and take a look back in time and see.

If the US leaves NATO, Europe would lose a lot of support.

If the US stays in NATO, they would refuse to support them anyway and could use their veto power to stop any potential action.

If they're not going to have the support of the US military either way, and the US staying in NATO could prevent the organization from taking any action at all, it may be in the best interest of Europe for the US to leave NATO so they can't cripple it from within.
