The wheel of time turns and ages come and pass. There is no end to the turning of the wheel of time but this is an end.

They did actually sue someone for the exclusive right to call themselves "crappy tire":
IIRC someone was hosting a Canadian Tire complaint website "crappytire.com" and in trying to get it shut down Canadian Tire used the legal argument that this person was infringing Canadian Tire's identity ("We are the legitimate Crappy Tire, and this person is an imposter") and the domain should be surrendered to them. ~~They won.~~ edit: They lost.
This winter I frequently met American tourists on on the chair lift while skiing. I would always just say: "thank you for supporting our independence with your tourism dollars".
Putting something you need to see where you can't see it actually does have a short of efficiency logic to it.
Like save the fusible storage locations for things you'll be able to see
Yeah I think if you go back to Genesis you'll see that God pretty clearly wanted a naive vegan nudist roommate.
I went to China on a business trip about 10 years ago. I was gobsmacked by how good they are at flattery. I was totally unprepared for it, and they didn't even want anything from me.
I don't think anyone can actually do fusion power in the lab either. The only energy positive way to do fusion power is within a nuclear fission explosion isn't it?
I think it would be cheese on top of pasta sheet layered with mashed potato so creamy it's practically a sauce, on top of ground meat/ mince mixed with tomato & vegetable sauce.
Violence is the only way a dictator will be deposed. History has proven it well.
Is that true? What about South Korea and Taiwan?
I agree about it being baffling to see so many 'freedom loving Americans' so blind to the nature of the current administration.
They look awful. Slightly less awful when wrapped, but I heard that Tesla fucked up the bonding surface for wraps or something so they're basically unremovable, but will deteriorate with age.
I'm going to be one of those parents. I'm going to share what my 7 year old said at breakfast earlier this week as he looked over my shoulder at the pictures in the newspaper and asked me what the articles were about.
I forget how it came up, but I mentioned that Trump is very old and might die of old age in less than 4 years. He said:
I don't want him to die but I don't want him to be their ruler anymore.
I told him he was right and praised him for being able to hold those two ideas in his head at the same time.
...Personally I'd prefer a single event that resulted in the horrific death of several specific top USA officials due to their own malice/avarice/corruption, but I don't want him to be too cynical.
I think it'd be best to be horrific, to shock society into demanding better leadership. I don't think we'll be so lucky.
I'm a person that saw this and thought "YES!".
It's a way to make my mindless scrolling a little bit less mindless. It's not a Wikipedia alternative it's a tiktok alternative (I don't use tiktok, but I understand why people do, my attention span is also shattered). Obviously it's not going to replace looking things up on Wikipedia, and I love exploring links in Wikipedia articles, but you don't know what you don't know so this seems like a good way to learn about things you didn't know you were interested in.
