Kissinger didn't give a shit about the Jewish people, or people at all, even after seeing first hand the horrors of the Holocaust. Kissinger backed the genocide of Bengali Hindus, personally approved bombings in Cambodia, directly influenced the reign of terror that would murder thousands of Chileans, and told Nixon that the gassing of Soviet Jews wasn't America's concern. He called US jews who called for action against the Soviets "self serving bastards" and completely ignored his own heritage when visiting his home town in Germany.

Amazing that you would claim him when he wouldn't claim you.

Scanning your own ID probably won't be a thing since it won't be able to determine whether the ID belongs to you or not.

Yeah money gets around, which means once you exchange it, it loses all connection to you. Merchants don't track serial numbers, and there's no guarantee those bills will be picked up in the next deposit to the bank.

That's why banks use dye packs, because once it's gone there's no actual way to track it. If there were, they wouldn't use dye packs...

Since when do cashiers actually look at serial numbers on dollars?

Reality is covid changed the way they did it, that and many stores closing on Thanksgiving. Then they realized they could still make a similar amount of money with less risk to people and property. And with digital retail becoming more popular they'll lose less product to theft and damages if you ship from a warehouse or have a personal shopper get it for you and bring it to your car instead of going into an overcrowded store.

Employees are less stressed, everyone is safer, and sales numbers are the same or better.

There's no state that allows recreational purchase under 21. Vapes are considered a tobacco product regardless of nicotine content and also require you to be 21.

Counter argument, Russian interference and political undermining has a direct and indirect influence on global politics.

"Russia should "introduce geopolitical disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of separatism and ethnic, social and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements – extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thus destabilizing internal political processes in the U.S. It would also make sense simultaneously to support isolationist tendencies in American politics"."

Maybe they misspoke, maybe they're just wrong. But it's still not an old reposted story as you suggested, which is what they were getting at. If you choose to be obtuse that's on you.

It literally was published 11/21/23, referencing a lawsuit filed Monday the 20th, and all other articles about it are a day old or less. It's an ingot story.

Is the ceasefire in Israel old news because the conflict kicked off over a month ago?

Do you add pasta when the water is boiling or do you add pasta when it's 100°C? Because right now the boilng point of water for my location is 95.23°C. If I were to go skiing and wanted to boil some instant Ramen does it matter that the boiling point is 90.04°C in Leadville, CO? Or do I just put some water on the stove and wait till it boils?

You're right, I read the headline too fast. Updated my comment.

That's a funny way to say "murder"...

I remember the dress. Mostly because it's related to a recent attempted murder. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/jul/14/man-mother-in-law-blue-black-dress-viral-charged-trying-to-kill-wife

Netanyahu saying there will be time to answer why he didn't do anything to stop that Oct 7th attack after the war has to be top of the list right now.

That's an interesting thought, but I would suggest it's the simple answer: the skin around your eyes is already fairly thin compared to areas that experience frictional forces more often such as the soles of your feet or palms of your hands, so your eyelid would also be a similar thickness to your face skin.

I don't think having thicker eyelids would be much of a disadvantage considering it's not readily visible so predators wouldn't know who's vulnerable like they do when hunting the young or injured, and since humans are social creatures any attack on one would alert the others via sound. Furthermore, how often would a threat cast a shadow over your face before it made itself known in other ways? Probably not enough to give an advantage to one-ply eyelid people to pass on thin genes over thick genes in enough of a way to cause human evolution to run that course.

It's possible, I just don't see it being likely. Like most traits, I think it's just random and has negligible impact on survival/reproduction meaning it doesn't change.

I could be wrong though

Good catch, I didn't even notice the percentages. I did look at the date but of course the meal was purchased on the one day this month where that's not helpful

Let's see... dollar sign? Well that cuts out a lot of the world. Written in English, so that leaves about 3 countries. Australia doesn't have a tipping culture the same way we do in North America so that leaves either Canada or the US, in which case you can replace state with province and cover your bases.

Well the Toybox killer for one...

Plot twist: he's been lost in the foggy woods for a year and has come full circle.
