Making animal noises over quiet channels is a long running joke that has been going on for decades, at least. Someone at the FAA put their pants on too tight this morning, it seems.

Protests armed by the US, per Trump

Maybe your time would be better spent worrying about your own country?

Traveler threatened with jail or fine had phone forcefully searched and was denied entry after bald photo of JD Vance found.

Only state approved journalists allowed in White House press pool.

Pentagon removes internal press media offices.

Protestors charged with terrorism for wearing black clothing and handing out pamphlets.

US builds concentration camps for those disappeared by masked secret police, after killing citizens in street.

Masked secret police collecting DNA, face scans, license plates from peaceful protestors, for use in creating a database of “domestic terrorists”.

Trump wishes to imprison additional US citizens in El Salvadoran gulag after sending 280 immigrants.

Police arrest and attack citizens with chemical weapons, batons, and projectiles, injuring over 300,000 people per year.

US bankrolls, supplies, and provides troops to apartheid state conducting genocide.

But China (7000km away) is big meanie and if I can’t have pooh photo (if I ever travel 7000km to China (which I hate because pooh photo)), I will literally die.

Sun trail through a corn dog.

You don’t get one without the other. You don’t get to choose.

Wow, nice personal anecdote. It must be true, then. Let’s just ignore all medical evidence because you think it’s not true.

People age differently, and many people experience cognitive decline that impairs their decision-making, resulting in overestimation of their current, now-degraded abilities.

Your ability to evaluate yourself often degrades with age. It is the state’s responsibility to independently verify that the drivers they license are capable of driving safely.

If prison is for rehabilitation and not punishment, are you suggesting we rehabilitate this woman for being elderly?

The NY Post is a rag.

The driver is in her eighties, in poor health, previously had a clean record, was not intoxicated or distracted, showed remorse for what happened, and did not contest the charges against her. It is unknown if she suffered a medical incident at the time of the crash.

If prisons are truly for rehabilitation and not punishment, what is she to be rehabilitated for? She already doesn’t have much time left, and being thrown into an overcrowded, run down prison purely out of spite would only serve to further reduce her life expectancy and waste state funds.

If anything, this is a symptom of the state’s over reliance on cars, and insufficient testing and certification of elderly drivers.

Why should she keep her composure?

This is coming from the leader of the country that launched their own ‘surprise’ and killed over 250,000 of her country’s civilians.

Both are important.

Legal cases create precedents which can be used to fight similar cases in the future.

We can’t be giving the people what they want, now can we?

We say end the war

Yeah, but here’s the thing… Dem leadership is not saying they want to end the war.

Thanks for reading the article.

Is there a time besides maybe the 2010s where people had more disposable income ?

Yeah, bud.

It was called 1940-2007.

Line go down, rent go up. What do?

This is just not true for many people. A home is an asset. When paying a mortgage, you build equity that can be recouped if you decide to sell, or which can be used as collateral for another loan. When renting, you are still paying a mortgage, except is the landlord’s and you own nothing. Rent prices can also change at any time and by large amounts, forcing renters to move. The cost of owning a home is much more stable and predictable.

Homes are also typically bought with a loan and a relatively small down payment, making them a leveraged asset. Eg, if you put down 30k on a 300k house and prices increase 5%, the value of your home just went up 15k. If you instead just put 30k in stocks, you would need an increase of 50% to get the same result.

Regardless, when it comes to housing, your primary concern should always be stability and not “profitability”.

Private money cannot replace public funding of science

Ftfy

Front page isn’t too bad though, most of the time

Lmao

Yeah, Western broadcasters should instead use Chinese characters and not do any translations when covering China.

I am very smart.

Dozens of countries host US military bases. While currently unlikely, the individual host nations could absolutely forcefully overtake or otherwise expel the bases within their borders while the US flounders about in Iran.

The US has just shown it can’t protect it’s bases, and their presence only invites more conflict.
