I figure they have AI chatbots making the decisions and it can’t ~~term~~ tell the difference between talking about violence and advocating for violence

Are people with $20K lenses excited about kildeer?

I spent a couple weeks at a Southwest Pennsylvania RV park that had kildeer running around all through the greensward in the middle of it. Was I seeing something more remarkable than the usual run of things?

The thing about the more affluent areas is they generally don’t shoot people there very much.

My six-year-old and my eight-year-old started fighting and chasing each other around on a skinny trail at the top of the Grand Canyon with very long drop-offs and no fences to either side.

They didn’t die, then, but each time I remember it again they are at risk of being murdered

They seem to have detained some white tourists lately as well.

Am I missing something?

HandsOff2025.com is still talking about April 5 only, and fiftyfifty.one website says April 19 on the landing page but the “find an event” shows nothing for that day including in Washington DC.

What’s going on with that?

If that is true, please explain why all the chicken for sale in my country has gone to shit and good quality meat can’t be found anymore.

Regulations matter. Hold on to them.

I’m not saying “inflation means prices go up” I’m saying “inflation means prices went up”. There can be many things that cause prices to go up, inflation is one result of any such cause and of course then causes many things itself including further inflation.

In your scenario that’s inflation caused by price fixing. You seem to be saying these things are mutually exclusive but I don’t understand why you would say that.

Companies deciding to raise prices (for any reason — justified or not) is what inflation is made of.

Inflation just means “prices went up.”
