It’s an old saying. The Empire had colonies all over the world so at any point in time it was day for at least one colony. Therefore the sun never set on The Empire as a whole.

The joke is making fun of that old saying, pretending it means there is no night for the British isles and all the sun is causing the temperature of the isles to increase.

I hope that’s enough explanation to remove any humor from the joke.

Also in dreams.

This was my first thought too. I guess clouds are scary to me now.

DBZ Abridged Nappa is the only true Nappa.

Nice of the billionaire to vacate perfect real estate for city owned grocery stores

Luckily Lemmy isn’t that popular yet. (Plus we’re all poor.)

It does seem the power of the judiciary will be challenged quite soon.

It will probably be with a tweet saying “Make me. You and what army?” and the courts will need to rely on the US military choosing the Constitution over the Commander in Chief.

May we all have the fortune to live securely in less interesting times. I suppose it is our duty to make that happen.

Robert Moses?

I’m loving this saga. Better love story than Twilight.

Thank you for the write up. That distinction makes a lot of sense.

Ahh fantastic point. There isn’t really an incentive for the individuals to maintain/perpetuate the institution.

I understand the sentiment. I’m wondering about the efficacy of the strategies to achieve those end goals.

I don’t agree with this. Shareholders extracting value from a company is arguably more of an ‘inefficency’ than treating employees fairly. Well treated employees provide a benefit to the company while shareholders purely remove resources.

I have no data to back up my claim, just logic, so I could very well be wrong.

Congratulations (if this isn’t a joke)!!! I’d love to help make the world habitable for your child.

It’s a bird, so that’s prob the he.

That you very much for writing this up. It is super interesting, and I feel bad for dismissing her. Unfortunately, I will probably continue people whom are the vague they.

I disagree. Minimum wage is minimum wage. If you don’t care about the moral implications of the for profit prison system… Paying equal wages for prisoners will force higher wages in the non captive population.
