But I won’t do that!

Aww, who am I kidding. unzips

Yep, but not just “look over here.” He wants them to move their resources and position their defenses to respond from an attack in those areas. That will potentially leave them out of position to respond quickly to whatever he actually does.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Please provide evidence of this uptick in violent leftist extremism.

True, but only if you exclude Russia. About 3.9 million square kilometers of Russia lies on the European continent. Columbia is 1.1 million km². The next largest country in Europe is Ukraine at .6 million km² then France at .5 million km². Columbia is by no means a tiny country. According to this Wikipedia page, it ranks 25th largest in the world in terms of surface area.

“There are other instances where officers will approach someone who’s at a urinal, the officer will touch himself or will just peer at the person, and if the person — who is there just trying to pee — responds in any way, that person is then arrested or at least charged with lewdness,” Trujillo said in his video.

This is quite literally committing the crime of public lewdness in order to justify arresting people for it. Every person arrested should tell the judge that they want to press charges against the arresting officer for public lewdness.

10 bucks says Hegseth meant to meet with a couple generals, but because he was drunk he accidentally sent the orders to every general and admiral in the military.

How is injecting a drug a way to subdue a person in custody? That’s fucked up.

Allow me to introduce you to the practice of police restraint by ketamine. No longer will police simply kneel on your neck and suffocate you. Now they will say you are experiencing excited delirium and have a medic take a wild guess at your weight and inject you with ketamine to ‘calm you down.’

Maybe, but most of them crime and sin their way through every day because they think that if they confess their sins every week then God will forgive them and they’ll get their golden ticket to the pearly gates anyway. I doubt much would change.

People should start posting that they know people who were raptured. That was way all the religious zealots will start to think they weren’t good enough and got left behind.

Edit to fix typo.

You ain’t kidding.

“I overindulged. I thank you all for caring, but I’m perfectly fine. I keep telling you all: don’t trust tabloids or AI!” he wrote on X.

Oz pledged in writing to close out by July 3, 2025 his stake in iHerb, an LLC that sells folinic acid supplements.

Oh look! A pledge from one of the lying liars in our government.

He won’t be impeached. That would piss off too many conservatives. He’ll be removed using the 25th Amendment once they can no longer prop him up and make him seem vaguely coherent.

As Arthur C. Clarke said, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”

I do not believe there is a minimum size for asteroids. They range from a few meters up to Vesta at 530 km or so.

Interesting. Never heard that term before. Thanks.

Ex-urban? Did some cities disappear leaving middle schools still standing?

I can’t seem to edit my original post but I wanted to another series of classic sci-fi compilations I have. These were published to honor works that were published before the institution of the Nebula Awards.

The Science Fiction Hall of Fame, Vol. 1, 1929-1964 - Includes the Roads Must Roll by Heinlein and Nightfall by Isaac Asimov.

The Science Fiction Hall of Fame, Vol. 2-A - Includes The Marching Morons by C. M. Kornbluth, and Who Goes There by John W. Cambell Jr. Who Goes There is the story on which John Carter’s 1982 film The Thing was based.

The Science Fiction Hall of Fame, Vol. 2-B - The Big Front Yard by Clifford D. Simak, The Martian Way by Asimov. This one also includes The Machine Stops that is included in the first compilation I recommended so there is some overlap.
