Chief Theetge said that city police officers responded to a residential cul-de-sac on Thursday, where they found a car that had been reported stolen in northern Kentucky.

One of the four people, identified by the authorities as Ryan Hinton, had a gun in his hand, Chief Theetge said.

the officer called out that Mr. Hinton had a gun.

Mr. Hinton fell to the ground and the responding officers provided first aid, Chief Theetge said.

A firearm was recovered at the scene, the chief added. Another gun was found inside the stolen car, the police said.

And we all know how much we can trust what the police say.

But don't worry, folks in the free world, this won't apply to you! Douyin (Tiktok in China) may restrict what kids see, but Tiktok abroad will still serve up to your tween daughter videos that tell her if she isn't pretty enough, she might as well kill herself.

Presumably, Starbase scrip will have a Shibu Inu on one side and "In Elon We Trust" on the other.

And a QR code linking to a 10,000-word list of Terms & Conditions, with points like:

• "You are only granted a license to use Starbase Coin, not ownership, which remains with the issuer at all times."
• "Your license may be revoked at any time and for any reason, including resigning from SpaceX, voting incorrectly in city elections, or saying mean things about the issuer."

Sooner or later, the cult of Musk will collide with the cult of Trump. There can be only one!

Like when that Qanon nut hired a sovereign citizen as a "lawyer" to represent them in court. It did not end well. IIRC the Qnut shot the sovcit dead.

Five problems with that for me:

1. "no help from anyone etc.": effectively a complete embargo, never gonna happen.
2. Effects on people inside the 'city' who aren't Muskovites, e.g. most decisions affecting them would be in the hands of an oligarch, with one fewer check or balance on his power. I really can't see how that's a good thing.
3. Effects on people inside the 'city' even if they work for SpaceX, see the fear and silence from them when campaigners tried to speak to them about voting against incorporation already when Musk/SpaceX is just their employer and their landlord, let alone their de facto mayor, too. (One may feel they 'deserve' it and could end it by 'just' leaving their jobs and homes, but I'd rather Musk didn't succeed in advancing and increasing fear of him in anyone, including employees of companies he's involved in.)
4. Effects on people outside the 'city', e.g. Boca Chica Beach is the place people from Brownsville (pop. ~200,000) and around can spend some time at the seaside in what little free time they have, and Musk is doing everything he can to completely control (i.e. cut off) public access to the public beach.
5. Effects on the environment, e.g. basically the entire delicate delta ecosystem will be completely open (even more than it is already, see Cards Against Humanity vs SpaceX) to being trashed for SpaceX development, eminent domain seizures etc.

I see two arms, so ¿why not both?

Mississippi goddam!

But... a dozen is one more than 11.

But don't forget to remind them they're actually celebrating Margaret Thatcher's day.

NATO needs to invade and correct its backsliding member...

It's OK now, they've changed their name to the Boston Commanders.
