I mean, the entire song was making fun of the Gangnam District being wealthy. It has the highest average income per resident in South Korea. I wouldn't exactly say that's people already in a bad situations.

There are of course exceptions, but a massive fire in Manhattan is totally different than one in the Bronx for instance.

It's low lying, but this is the Internet and thus a requirement.

A reminder that the push for gun control legislation in California started under Reagan in response to the Black Panthers arming themselves and cop watching back in the 60s. And was supported by the NRA, in case you ever thought they might not have had a racist undercurrent at any point on their history.

History repeats, roughly every 80 years or so as the generation that experienced the events directly all die off. A little early this time, but...

We have the Black Panthers in Minnesota now watching the cops yet again.

More likely 10% that are tired of the shit, don't know what's real and fake anymore, or who to trust as an authoritative factual perspective. So it's easier to just live their daily life, which is already a pain in the ass.

Really makes you wonder with the incompetence, how long could you last just not doing shit before they figure it out and fire you?

Then reapply, probably get rehired, and do it all again.

Once you get past the Kazon it gets more varied. The Kazon are just terrible and they drag the show down with them.

That being said, some of my personal favorite VOY episodes are in the first few seasons, they just don't involve the Kazon.

Picking the most incompetent administration to take this on is a smart move. They're extremely likely to fuck up defending it.

Can't really blame them for trying to get some of their money back.

Unadulterated technical incompetence from a tech company is par for the course these days though.

Sounds like Minnesota needs to require all ICE planning to be handled out of state, all planned actions to be notified to the State ahead of time and approved with all teams having local officers shadowing. Refusal to do so resulting in the arrest of all officers. Let the courts deal with it later, since that's what the Feds seem to want to do anyway.

And yet here we are.

ICE shouldn't need weapons at all unless they're directly finding someone with a violent conviction.
