By the time they get their shit together, Russia is going to own the Donbas (source of neon and wheat, both of which China needs), and then China will own Taiwan.
TSMC better hurry up if they want to complete this while they're still a company.
No car or motorcycle should ever exceed 80db SPL at 2 meters. If they do, it's RPG time.
And that was before Pelosi made AOC fire her most visibly leftist staffers.
Communism is better than nothing, but it's going to have to be a global communism to make a difference, since any one of us on the planet can clearly consume 5x+++ their share of resources annually.
Even if we got 75% of the world population with the program, we could still have a consumption problem 5x that of America, because the greatest consumers will be the last to join the revolution.
Climate Stalin is the only thing that might, might improve the situation we're going to find ourselves in. Other than that, we're just going to pollute ourselves and everyone else to extinction, hence my belief that all non-human flora and fauna would be better off without us.
He is a dipshit, but there is also precedence for people cropping themselves to get on the dole:
And you are going to magically manage energy demand through gentle suggestion?
Coffee tastes bad, coke zero is great first thing in the morning, and egg nog is better without any alcohol in it.
Humans need to go extinct for the good of every non-human on the planet. We're never going to get a critical mass of people worldwide on the right page to continue increasing our population without wrecking everything.
Live long and die out.
We have cameras to see if the mail has come yet, which of us moved the big broom, check in on things while we're out of town, etc. They can be useful even if you're not in a risky neighborhood.
ETA: We have no firearms, because we don't have any interest in maintaining the proficiency necessary to ensure that we don't accidentally kill each other. Even aside from that, we have no interest in hunting, and the likelihood that a gun would ever make a positive difference during some remotely-possible home invasion is basically unmeasurable.
This is why I don't read Nextdoor anymore. I live in a boring, safe suburban neighborhood, and all I read on there were people freaking out about nothing, propagandizing themselves and each other. Fascist hellscape, Nextdoor is.
The Psychologists in my family only refer to Myers-Briggs in an anecdote from grad school: it was used as the ideal example of how to design a terrible test.
They say that, if you're going to do a personality test, long-form MMPI is the best of them, but personality tests are just academic exercises that don't tell the therapist as much as they could learn by just talking to the patient.
He'll step down, next guy will come in and start passing legislation. It'll be another fight over legitimacy, but they'll pass some bill about funding Israel, the Senate will take that one up, Biden will sign it, then we'll effectively never need a speaker again. Israel gets its money, and the government will still shut down on November 15.
Fuck this stupid government, seriously.
Uber Eats on my Android is 280MB for some reason.
Strangely, my largest app is Samsung SmartThings at 822MB. Maybe they include every driver for every possible device or something.
That is our word and you have no right to use it
