Watching this guy barreling down a waterslide while drinking whiskey with a pack of cigarettes at hand and a crystal ashtray while wearing a full suit with your family at your side is funny as fuck. Kim sure knows how to put on absurd state events.

China is largely dominating the electric bus market too. I doubt Europe particularly wants to bootstrap a lithium mining and refining industry to compete though. The Chinese companies are that vertically integrated.
Getting a liberal with ethics. Good luck.
A definitive defeat now would permanently end his career as a politician
Based on the results reported that’s already in the bag. There’s no doubt he can’t govern with what his current support looks like.
Saudi has been in a cold war with Iran for decades because it wants to be a regional hegemon and hasn’t been quiet about it. Turkey is more circumspect, giving everybody face while cutting them off at the knees in the shadows. Egypt, by comparison, would much prefer to stay out of everybody’s business and have them stay out of theirs. They’ve got more interests in Sudan and Ethiopia at this point.
What’re we suddenly considering the Saudis and the Turks the moderating influence in the middle east now and Israel and the US aren’t even in the equation? Jesus Christ.
I guess I’m a train now.
They often keep that shit in tanks outside, particularly depleted(figuring out what to do with depleted uranium hexafluoride is often a challenge and the US has a truly staggering amount of full tanks just sitting around waiting to leak). Once it hits air you get hydrofluoric acid gas which will spread thanks to the explosion and will kill you in small concentrations(as low as 30 ppm). It’s awful and blowing it up to spread it everywhere is even more awful. The only thing worse would be bombing a purex plutonium reprocessing plant. That is just as toxic in different ways but you can make the tanks go prompt critical thanks to changing it’s geometry and it has actual fission products you can spread around. Those reprocessing plants were a main plank in how north Korea got their bomb.
I wouldn’t care about radiation. I’d care about aresolized uranium hexafluoride though. A toxic acidic reactive heavy metal gas? Delicious. It’s more dangerous than weapons grade uranium by a mile.
Upon activating my emergency lights and sirens, the vehicle tapped on its brakes several times, but it continued to proceed without stopping for approximately 30 seconds, despite having several safe, lit areas to pull over
Fucking cops just like to make up absolute bullshit to justify their stops and searches sometimes.
His dog whistle was too high income for them to hear. He’s gotta be cognizant that shitting on the minorities is only effective when you don’t accidentally attack the people you’re trying to court.
Hard to have standing over a third party not doing something to someone else that would hurt them to maybe(key point here) help you. It’s possible to argue yourself there but the bar is incredibly high. If you can’t assign direct provable causation and redress, you’re SOL.
It’s kind of like how nobody really could challenge DACA in the courts from the Republican side because all the harms they cited were hypothetical.
The legal basis is someone with standing would have to sue him over it. Tiktokm certainly isn’t going to and Congress… Well.
Yeah but it breaks down in sunlight.
Which one are you stamets.
Wait, they sent out another investigative reporter to do interviews about the anchor’s cell phone video from his neighborhood? And that somehow turned into national news while stripping out that detail? I find this more interesting than the bear.
Chenoweth has valid points worthy of debate but I have to say, I’m never going to get my political philosophy on direct action from the fucking beeb.
Radio free Asia. In this case it’s actually radio free Europe.
We can beat them and shoot the journalists with rubber bullets just fine, thank you.
The liberal brain, gentlemen. Tou Thao was convicted for keeping bystanders from intervening while not doing anything himself. He might’ve been less worse, but he still deserved to go to prison. And he remained unrepentant to the end. Of the four cops he got the second worst sentence despite never laying a hand on Mr. Floyd precisely because he refused to admit any culpability. It really is a good comparison, seeing this comment.
