  • Broccoli, Cauliflower, Kale, Cabbage, and Brussels sprouts all evolved from the same plant species: The Wild Mustard Plant. Farmers in different areas just chose to selectively breed different portions of the same plant. Broccoli was bred from choosing large buds and large stems. Cauliflower was just the flower bud. Brussels sprouts, Cabbage, and kale were all leaves from different portions of the plant.

    So albino broccoli is really a pretty close description.



  • Biden could straight up choose and endorse someone. Even if it wasn’t Harris, which would look kind of shitty, but the DNC isn’t completely stupid. They’d fully back whoever they decide that Bidens endorsement (see what I did there?) would be. It’s too late to let the dnc campaign and come up with a popular vote. It isn’t too late for a presidential endorsement to work.



  • The only reason I’ll still v9te for Biden is because I know the rest of the people around him will be doing the decision making. I think he’s a piece of shit for trying to run a 2nd term and potentially losing the Whitehouse to trump over it. You could literally throw any well spoken 50 year old Democrat to run against trump and they’d have a layup for a win. Instead we have to choose between a nutjob liar and a guy who probably could reason himself into a win against a child that rides the short bus. He wasn’t great 4 years ago, but he’s now very obviously not capable of leading a country.










  • Then they’d have to pay them more.

    There’s still tons of places that police, firefighters, and EMT’s, like $35k a year starting. Everyone always talks about teachers not making enough, but forgets about the people who show up in 5 minutes in the middle of the night because you called 911 and have no idea what to do and need to get help fast. Firefighters and emts are exploited because of a love of the job and what it means to them. Police are often not of that same track. If you don’t want to just attract the guy who wants to walk around looking for trouble and have a gun, you’ll have to make it worth the money.


  • Googles find my device network has been live for a couple of months now, after it was delayed (supposedly waiting on Apple) for like a year. Two other companies released trackers around the end of March. There’s a few more sold in non US markets. Moto saying they’ll have a tracker for sale in the coming months while others have already left the gate would be the slow poke part. There was a huge amount of info about the find my device network rollout. Moto really should have done this and been selling it already. It’s a copy of what’s already available.





  • If it were a game that didn’t use a pay to play/continue/win model, I’d agree that she was the best at it. Or at least played it the most. It’s hard to say she’s the best when you have to spend money to do it and you aren’t playing against anyone.
