Most people hate or are ambivalent to trees. It’s pretty shocking. If you ask them, they’ll say they love trees but offer to plant one on their property or in their park and you’ll soon see why there aren’t more trees in cities. The primary reason is many people kill them or fight against planting them in the first place.
You’re not wrong but it’s still a distinct crowd from the Rittenhouse type people. Usually the enlightened centrists are very concerned about violence but I guess the courts gave them a shield to suddenly be comfortable with killing in this instance. Maybe I was naive to take their stated opinions at face value.
Not really. Criticism of her positions, including on Gaza, is valid. But the VP has almost no power. And there’s really nothing to be done about grocery prices at this point. Falling prices are generally considered to be very damaging to the economy and would likely cause worse problems. And there’s not really any mechanism by which the executive branch could achieve this anyway.
Inflation is now 2.5%. That’s pretty normal. So there really isn’t any food price issue to solve at this point. The real question is: how will her policies affect wages? And what’s the plan to address the housing crisis which in my view is the real problem that is hurting people right now.
Does OP actually think the VP can unilaterally lower grocery prices? Lol
Yes, I just thought it was an interesting historical fact. It’s also pretty ironic since today CR has friendly relations with the US and in some ways this is what enables them to not have an army.
Actually there was a time when some wealthy American businessmen hired a private army and tried to take the country over. They succeeded in conquering Nicaragua but the Costa Ricans fought them off. This is the basis of their main national holiday.
Well, I didn’t get that sense. They seemed more like “enlightened centrist” kind of people. But who knows.
Yeah I was pretty shocked at how widespread his defenders were. Regardless of whether what he did was technically self defense or not, it’s clear he’s a bloodthirsty right-wing fanatic. There’s no need to defend his public image, even if you agree with the verdict.
The worst thing is I’ve never consented to them having my DNA but they have half of it anyway thanks to my brother…
This one’s not quite CS but oh well. Spell check - After a series of unfortunate accidents at the magical university, all novel spells must be submitted to the administration in writing to ensure their safety before first casting.
Root access - Access to the Underdark druid communication network, which is transmitted through a continent-wide system of interconnected tree roots.

Neural net - The system of control used by an elder brain to control and coordinate illithids under its influence.
A powerful technology that should be used carefully and responsibly. But not nearly as dangerous as it’s opponents imagine.
Other than the Iraq war I’m not aware of any of this and I can’t really find any information, you don’t have any links by chance, do you?
Are you? You’ve already jumped to spreading an outlandish theory that has no evidence behind it. That’s not what I would consider reserving judgment.
Will you disavow this theory if no evidence subsequently emerges?
Show me one iota of evidence that suggests Biden is involved in this.
And by the way, crime in NY is near historic lows.
Why not just keep it in a marina where you want to use the boat? Not snarky, genuine question since I don’t know much about boat ownership.
It will get much better over time but it always kind of sucks. I highly recommend reorganizing your life to avoid driving as much as possible if you can. The less you do it, the happier you’ll be.
I strongly disagree with this advice. A driver should try to be aware of all of their surroundings at all times. This may not be practical 100% of the time depending on your mental capacity and what you’re doing but you should still try.
Driving safely is difficult. People who shy away from this difficulty kill people.
So are you just speculating here or is there some evidence for this?
It’s certainly not true that the government produces conflicting reports on every topic.
Corner store with basics: 5 min Supermarket: 15 min Restaurants: 5 min Park: 3 min Bus stop: 5 min Library: 15 min Local rail: 20 min Regional/National rail: 40 min
All walking distances. I live in a neighborhood that was designed before cars existed so it’s more like Europe in terms of distances/amenities. Except our transit infrastructure is shit.
Tomato, tomato.
