Sounds like a great argument for getting more progressives deeply placed in the party. Too much of the power structure in the DNC is old libs, only way to change that is to get more of us in place.
Would Bernie be more effective if he was formally a member of the Democratic Party, like how AOC is? I’m not sure, but it is telling he ran in the Dem primary instead of as an independent.
You can do a whole hour?
It’s a game of Would You Rather and your answer is “screw you guys, I’m going home.”
You can join the Democratic Party and push them towards your beliefs or you can keep pushing them further right, but either way it’s only D or R for the foreseeable future.
The conspiracy would have to be way too big for all the polling to be as close as it was and have her lose votes pretty consistently across many different voting systems in the way she did. Maybe there was some meddling on the margins (still looking forward to real evidence) but the fact is it was as close as it was because a ton of people just didn’t care. Most of the excitement was that we could vote for both Not Trump and Not Biden at the same time.
Sorry bud, you’re straight up wrong. Aerospace and defense in the US very much still uses the inch-pound-second system of units.
I’m not a concrete guy, but I know that metals and composites have material properties certified for use in civil and commercial aviation are given in psi in MMPDS and CMH-17. I would be willing to bet that concrete specifications in the US are no different.
I could keep going. Our bolts are specified in ultimate tensile strength by psi. Structural steel standards use minimum yield strengths in psi. There is literally a type of steel called A36 because its minimum required yield strength is 36,000 psi.

We should be paying for the trucks to use the roads when we buy products transported on the roads. Just like how we pay for the ships, ports, trains, and railroads used to transport other goods. The cost of transport should be part of the total product cost. Trucks should be paying road tax in proportion to the damage they do to the roads, and those costs should be passed to their customers, then to us. This is how it works with most other forms of transport.
By moving the cost of the roads used by trucks to “everyone”, it makes trucking artificially cheaper and turns the cost of roads into an externality. If shippers had to pay those costs directly, I bet there would be many more goods shipped in more efficient ways.
Planet Money has some really good episodes. Unfortunately, a lot of filler as well.
You all don’t get it. In the story, the interviewer is the bad guy, he’s wasting his time and the time of the interviewee just to understand how valuable his team is.
The lesson to take from it is to be in touch with your team so that you don’t need someone else to show you how they are.
Countries allowed to have nukes:
Don’t forget China, India, and Pakistan all have nukes.
You have lost your mind.
They’ll do that if there is trash on the ground and claim it’s looting. They’ll do that if anything catches on fire and call it a riot.
Dropping rocks, lime scooters, and molotovs on police cars parked under an overpass doesn’t need any sensationalism to amplify AND it gives the police a great reason to start blasting.
Both people are right in a way here.
It’s the masses joining non-violent protests that gets shit done. They can’t ignore it when it gets big enough. Violence makes it that much harder to hold those safely.
The mainstream media and the right wing propaganda machine will amplify any small amount of violence to try to tarnish the whole movement.
Timothee Chalamet is in a relationship with Kylie Jenner. The character Zendaya plays in Dune kisses Timothee’s character.
There’s a lot of out of date info in there making your conclusions a bit innacurate. The yen is super weak right now, compared to USD and EUR especially.
Rice grown in California should not be cheaper than rice grown in Japan, just purely based on a currency analysis. Almost all other domestic foods in Japan are much cheaper in real terms than in California.
You aren’t having them redline the engine and slip the clutch going up a hill. Practicing idle starts in first is probably way less wear than a single sporty start on a highway on ramp.
Did it also add a Nazi / fascist type shirt?
You can have brown bread and baked beans that aren’t ultraprocessed, and they’re probably healthier for you.
Using processed food ingredients like molasses doesn’t make something ultraprocessed and unhealthy. Other ingredients like butter and olive oil are also considered processed.
If you keep pushing it further open it has a detent that will hold it open far enough that even my big nose won’t touch it… It’s an amazing design, better than a screw cap in every way. Well, at least the properly designed ones.
