It's the only rational course of action we have left for them. They would be insane not to try. I don't know if they will succeed. Mosad seems all powerful, but they will certainly try.

When I first saw the pic it was clearly blue/black. I laughed out loud when my wife asked me about the white/gold dress. I showed her my phone, and she agreed she could kinda see the blue black. She showed me hers, and I could kinda make out the white gold.

The device you view it on matters, and the lighting around you. For a while I could switch between them with concentration.

This pic is obviously white/gold.

Spirit island is a game where "the spirits" have been living in harmony with humans on the island for generations, but now, new invaders are showing up with guns and cities and destroying the balance. You take the role of the spirits resisting the invaders to defend the island.

Gloomhaven is a massive experience that simulates a small group of adventurers dungeon delving in a fantasy world.

Terraforming mars is about.... Terraforming mars. Win historical recognition by making the greatest contribution to humanities most ambitious project.

This will be super regional. A lot of the US a trip the the grocery store is a 30 minute drive one way. They make that trip once a month and load up their SUV with all their groceries.

Some people work 3 Jobs and their schedule is super tight, so even a 10 minute trip is a burden they would rather risk porch pirates than deal with.

I believe there are lots of places that porch pirates make delivery to door or mailbox just unrealistic. Personally I have never been a victim of theft to my knowledge. My knee jerk response to mitigation strategies is "why? It's not a problem for me" and I suspect most of my neighborhood this would be true.

So I suspect Americans reaction will vary dramatically by region. I see the Amazon dropoff locations and the boxes in stores near me and I don't see anyone use them.

I sometimes wonder if I am ever broke and hungry if I could just grab some food off the pickup shelf in a restraint near me. I won't, because I am not broke and have never needed to skip meals, because I am fortunate to have friends and family support even when I was broke. But it must not be a huge problem where I am or those shelves would not have food on them.

The Democrats are a conservative party. They want to get back to the days when the parties had no ideological differences and were just clubs that voters picked personalities they liked most.

That ended during the progressive era, when some politicians (in both parties) got ideas about making the country better for working class people. The Republicans had more friends that were rich as fuck so they started propaganda campaigns among Republican voters and the progressive Republicans were primaried out of office.

Now the Democrats are stuck with the leftist label they don't really want. Some of their voters do, but only some. American voters want leftist policies to be enacted but are allergic to leftist politicians and organizing.

Madman? He knew exactly what he was doing. He's a maga murderer.

The church is large and complex and run by many different people. It has been a force for good and evil all along.

If they spent half as much time monitoring wmright wing murderers as they do peaceful left wing movements, the country would be a lot safer.

What do you think they should do? Go to Minnesota and wack two Republicans to balance the legislature back out?

If he wants to be an occupying army he shouldn't be surprised when he gets treated like one.

I would hang out with me. I would play boardgames and learn about obscure subjects that I am interested in.

I would have trouble coordinating schedules with myself.

Millennial, briefly experienced a life with limited access to information.

You are capable of more than you think. You wrote phone numbers down and memorized your own. You memorized the ones you used regularly. I had 7-8 friends and family numbers memorized.

You also only needed one phone number per household.

When you needed to know something like how to fix a car or replace a light bulb you asked someone. Often An uncle, aunt, or cousin. If nobody in your friends/family group knew, you went to the library.

Yellow pages and magazines and instruction manuals were constantly floating around with information. I never felt deprived of curiosity. I read a lot.

Biden made hay about selecting a Black Woman as vise President. That is declaring her heir apparent.

"The DNC" does not have the power to force Biden to step aside when he doesn't want to.

They aren't a military or a government. They are a club, and Biden was far and away the senior member.

That's not what they said.

Katy Perry. She got brain rot from dating Russel Brand.

I wasn't banned. I deleted my comment history with a script during the API fiasco.

China was facing the possibility of total collapse before the trade war, and they are more vulnerable than the US to the effects of the trade war.

I'm not saying the US will "win" the trade war, (no nation will be better off.) but if China comes through on top it will be analogous to Vietnam, where the US has every conventional advantage but political pressure at home forces capitulation.

Trump doesn't know what he is doing, but there is a chance he gets his way more or less just because he was handed a deck stacked wildly in his favor.

They are not our ally and you are arguing a strawman.

I suspect that when the holiday was getting going, it was spread by music, and "July 4th" doesn't carry the lyric .... Utility of "fourth of July"

The phrase "Born on, the fourth of, July!" Is buried in my consciousness but I can't name the song or any other lines to go with it.
