The People Mover Who Was Promised

Yeah this would be really bad, but I don't put a line on how stupid and cruel the Trump admin can be to the world, to the US and to our soldiers.

It would be very funny if this leads to Dems getting Exxon mobil in the national divorce.

And massively anger his oil company support base.

Economically, an export ban would be a bad thing to do overall, oil and natural gas exports are a pretty key part of our economy.

The cigars probably hurt.

No good but people have done this with almost every large bsky company account and I don't think they've ever gotten anyone fired.

Hoping this didn't happen to anyone recently.

And for once it will be accurate too, this rise is actually Trump's fault almost entirely.

Everything is at the margin. A 2% delta is massive in elections.

why are so many of you taking a really bad and dumb piece on maven as gospel

there's a million reasons why the US unintentionally hit a school (also entirely possible it was the IDF), "the AI had bad data and whoopsie we just took its outputs as gospel straight into the JIPTL" ain't one

To be honest, I think this works. If people are consuming or producing a large amount in the US, moving that spending or production to a foreign country does hurt the US economy in a way that is not good for MAGA in the 2028 election.

The Kurds are denying these claims.

The usual major utilitarian reason to oppose cruelty towards animals is that they can almost certainly suffer. But avoiding people getting a taste for producing such suffering is definitely a secondary one.

There was the trigger that he was estranged from his wife and probably getting a divorce before this started, but still really bad and the first time I've heard of a psychosis like this outside of all of the many times with chatgpt.

I do think if the Iraqi Kurds entered Iran, they would be very unlikely to try this. They would probably just attempt to liberate the Kurdish areas and stabilize the border there. A run at Tehran is what Hegseth would want, but not any reason for them to want to do it.

I think this is just the ioniq 6, which I would probably get if I were to get a car.

Yeah it's bad regardless.

A part of me hopes the fact it is being said out loud means that it is fake and the DOD is spreading it as misinfo to get Iran to give up.

The original error is reasonable as someone not alive in the 1950's will miss that "unleash Chang" is in reference to Chiant Kai-Shek. No one he knows correcting him in a decade despite his error here being widely reported on is the hilarious part.

I don't think it was surrendering.

I'm saying that I think Hegseth and team almost certainly made no effort to get it to surrender, where more reasonable actors would have and probably succeeded.

Abandon the powder River basin and similar, intermodal elsewhere. Which would be almost just as good as passenger rail for reducing emissions and road accidents.

The Graf Spee was doing commerce raiding and not in a situation where it would be expected to surrender due to being in an impossible situation.

situation so far from Iran.

The key factor here is that it probably would have been easier to just ask them to surrender.

It is not likely a war crime as they do not seem to have made any previous attempt to surrender, but it seems somewhat immoral given that they almost certainly would have if asked given their impossible

This should be deleted.

I do think most or all of that would go to intermodal. Which is just as useful as it would cut trucking emissions and road accidents.

Been a Mills supporter before this, but I'm a weirdo for whom this info makes me like her even more.

That's a candidate who didn't even do that well with that group (Cuomo) and a Texas candidate.

It was friendly fire. First ever ace from a friendly fire incident most likely lol.

It honestly doesn't have the drama of either of those races. Krishnamoorthi seems to be cruising to a victory, and he doesn't seem to at all resemble the person described in that headline which seems a clear hitpiece.

He's on the Spurs, and they've been proud for a long time that they don't use cheerleaders and replaced them with a coed dance team. They were also the first NBA team to hire a female assistant coach.
