The pool of people who have never been critical of Trump on the Internet is hopefully shrinking rapidly.

The review of copyright policy is the big one.

I’d like to see the rest of the world return to sane copyright limits.

24 per cent is still WAY too high.

Funny thing is, the Bible really doesn’t speak of that. It speaks of the armies that come to destroy Zion as being destroyed themselves. The rest is opportunistic interpretation.

Whether Zion refers to Israel the nation, the spiritual descendants of Abraham, Jerusalem or the New Jerusalem is all in how you read it. And the Jewish scriptures are pretty clear that the land will be levelled in the fighting, after which people from all nations will be able to come to the rebuilt Jerusalem in peace.

I’ve never understood anti-Muslins… I mean, it doesn’t wrinkle and it breathes better than silk and linen… why the hate?

Those are unregulated already. Maybe nobody told him?

How? I just got my voting card on Monday!

…but some things don’t. “Locate Servia on a map?”

They can’t even blame that on autocorrect; obviously the text was originally written on a qwerty keyboard though.

Just as a point of reference, my 8th grade tests were harder than that one (in Canada).

This gets you “oh, I never got that email. It probably got blocked by the spam filter.”

To quote The Life of Brian:

“Yes, we are all original!”

I think this is fake news.

They’re all millionaires now.

And that includes to Canada.

Three guesses?

If you buy products subject to tariffs, on the one hand that puts money into the hands of the federal government to mismanage. On the other hand, it helps out Americans and foreigners who are being negatively affected by the government’s antics.

Personally, I’d recommend just ignoring them where possible and avoiding them where necessary.

For people outside the US: find alternatives, especially to products produced in Republican states.

I figured it out: tariffs are leeches. Trump is a lecher.

If you’re calling it antivirus, you need security software but probably don’t know how to properly implement it.

From my own observations, kids seem to mostly have a pretty informed and realistic perspective on things right now.

Wait… enough material for 375 million vehicle batteries?

In 2022, the US produced 17.3 million electric vehicles for domestic use, not counting imports.

Assuming no increase in production, that will last less than 22 years, if all lithium is extracted without losses and converted to vehicle batteries only.

Add in losses and other uses for lithium, and that deposit will last a decade, tops.

On the plus side, they don’t need to worry about environmental destruction, considering what currently sits on top of it.

Can we use an animal where that’s actually true? Crabs are very much intersexual, which isn’t quite the same thing as bisexual.

They just have to prove that he intentionally went back to his vehicle and then intentionally left it again to confront the people with the firearm.

If he’d run back to his vehicle and then tried to leave the area while waving his gun, that wouldn’t be premeditated.

But that’s not what he did. He intentionally escalated the situation while not being threatened.
