To be fair, it is the united ´states´, not the united ´people living on the continent´. It wouldn’t be any more fair if California was making the decisions for 20 other states, just because they happen to have a crap load of people. The federal government is kind of supposed to be making decisions and maintaining things between states, not all these decisions affecting the people so directly.

I know it’s going to last a long time because the old lady said they used it everyday and it still looks practically new

For sure, anyone who has seen some of the videos of drink carts and luggage bouncing off the cabin ceilings during crazy turbulence shouldn’t have any questions about the utility of seatbelts in less than catastrophic events… Which of course is the goal even in ‘crash’ landings. There are crashes where seatbelts would obviously be worthless, but in anything short of that, you’ll be happy that you weren’t in a box with 300 human shaped dice being shaken up.

Imagine that actually goes through and one of the Republicans actually gets a conscience and falls on his sword and throws in for Kamala.

Also a separation so the smell can’t be directly attributed to him.

Not that there isn’t a lot of creepiness going on with this in general, but it wouldn’t be crazy to remodel without emptying a freezer. Assuming they weren’t on top of the rest of the food, stuff in the bottom of a freezer can easily be overlooked for years

Hey, where’s all the water going all of the sudden?

This picture of the apparent tornado, with alleged clouds and, i guess, some type of ‘land’ was captured with what has been reported to be a camera of some sort.

There’s no copyright involved in taking a picture of someone, or having a picture of someone… Your tourist pictures are fine. If you publicize then or try selling them, that might be an issue, but making it inconvenient for people to make money off of non-permission photos isn’t really concerning to most people.

Well ‘no benefits’ is a bit of a stretch.

Still doesn’t work in my head…‘GOP candidate tries hijacking Autism even and turns it into campaign fundraiser…gets asked to leave and not return…then tries to do the same thing at a church across the street and gets asked to leave’…

none of that is reflected in that title

Quite likely one feeding the other. He must have learned long ago that he’ll never be able to compete in brains, but money, threats and bravado will get someone like him a lot farther than he’d get otherwise. In the meantime, he may have accidentally convinced himself that his level of knowledge actually is big and beautiful and anyone who claims to know more is just bullshitting like he is.

You’re probably getting suggestions for what she should do different because, at least at a starting point, it could just as easily be something her phone is doing before sending as it is something your phone is doing on the receiving end.

I’ve had a phone say ‘video to big, do you want to crop or share through abc app’ before. Don’t recall the exact message, but seems more likely than you phone downgrading something it’s receiving.

Yeah, guess i meant i doubt Walmart chooses to sell his chocolate based on the chocolate. I mean it could be fine, but unless he’s really talented in chocolate making and extremely economical, I’m reasonably sure they’re selling a box with the name ‘Mr Beast’ on it that happens to contain chocolate. If that name ever becomes neutral or negative in driving sales, i would be shocked if they keep it based on quality.

Imagine the suspension of intellect it must take to admit that Russia is willing to pay you push the narrative you are already pushing, or are willing to push, and then considering yourself a victim for doing it.

You weren’t the target, you were the tool.

It doesn’t require suspension of critical thought when you can look around the world and see that nowhere does anyone have high speed rail spanning distances and population densities equivalent to what the US would need to go from, say, New York to LA, it East to West Coast in general. There are plenty of examples similar locally to East or West Coast population centers, but nothing in between. High speed commercial routes? Maybe. High speed commuter rail? It’s not even close to being worth the cost: utilization.

Not sure what you are arguing with exactly, theres a huge difference between commercial and commuter ‘profitability’. Things that freely allow for commerce like a road can be justified from many different direction where a periodic service only makes sense based on demand. That isn’t to say that maintaining an underutilized route with the goal of it becoming utilized based on is availability is always a bad idea, but a road can be built and it’s cost can at least roughly be correlated to it’s use. If you had to periodically rebuild every road, at roughly the same cost whether it was used or not, they would end up with the same ‘profitability’ concern, but mostly you have to build all the roads for minimal usability and then spend the most money on the most used roads. Freeways are understood to improve commercial visibility and are funded by taxes for that reason. The entire country benefits by having clear routes for good to move. Commuter rail primarily benefits a local area and is funded heavily by fares and local taxes.

This is a really old message, but if you’re still having the same question i could try to answer, but that kind of message is pretty context dependant. For that specific one, it sounds like your program is trying to access something outside your network, like they have a website they need to access to check for updates or something.

Him talking back to God doesn’t mean he would be annoying to talk to as a person. I didn’t know many politicians that would risk their position vs sucking up.

Maybe, but i doubt he’s selling at Walmart based on the chocolate quality.
