What happened to the bones? How did they know there was a body there?

After the only hospital in town closed, a North Carolina city directs its ire at politicians ( apnews.com )

Weeds have punctured through the vacant parking lot of Martin General Hospital’s emergency room. A makeshift blue tarp covering the hospital’s sign is worn down from flapping in the wind. The hospital doors are locked, many in this county of 22,000 fear permanently....

Especially if it's a badly maintained Soviet era pile of junk.

Words can't express my lack of anguish.

Supporting mass murderers in the name of "stability" is just supporting mass murderers.

Israel's far-right minister Smotrich calls to occupy Gaza, take over south Lebanon ( www.haaretz.com )

Israel's Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said on Sunday that the Israeli army should create a security zone in southern Lebanon should Hezbollah not heed an Israeli ultimatum to withdraw from the border area. He also called on the security cabinet to order a permanent military presence "in all of the Gaza Strip."...

And anybody who says these are just a few fringe fanatics, remember that anybody who voted for Netanjahu knew that he was going to hop into bed with those fascist fucks and was therefore OK with it.

Diplomjodler3 ,

Sounds exactly like something they would do.

Banning sex work is about as successful as banning drugs. All it usually does is lead to more misery for the sex workers. Which is entirely the intention, of course.

The landing was hard, but was it hard enough?

Diplomjodler3 ,

This looks like a scene from looney tunes. It would be hilarious if it wasn't so sad.

Diplomjodler3 ,

I really want to see an independent test of an actual car using those batteries before I make any judgement. But if this lives up to the hype even somewhat, it'll certainly be a big step. And as for those subsidies, every heard about the "Inflation Reduction Act"? It's a huge subsidy with a lot of protectionism mixed in. Whining about Chinese subsidies is just hypocritical.

Diplomjodler3 ,

And don't forget the methane from your farts.

University tends to teach people critical thinking skills. This will often lead them to reject counterfactual claims made by radical ideologies. So obviously the people promoting those radical ideologies will not like that.

Diplomjodler3 ,

Oh dear, looks like you caught the woke mind virus! Because that is basically what it is.

Diplomjodler3 , (edited )

Nah, must have been aliens! Those boffins just think they're so clever.

Diplomjodler3 ,

I'm so tired of these fucks painting themselves as the victims whenever they face consequences for their malfeasance.

Diplomjodler3 ,

Those idiotic tariffs in the EU and US just mean that in every other place in the world the market will be dominated by Chinese EVs. Meanwhile, European and US cars can only be sold domestically where there is a captive market. That will lead to less innovation and higher prices. In essence the European and US consumers are paying the bill for the unwillingness to change of their domestic industries.

Diplomjodler3 ,

And had you ever tested the restore process?

The god of the bible is a genocidal, narcissistic, misogynist asshole, so this is pretty par for the course.

It's a very easy distinction. A semi-automatic rifle is not a hunting rifle. A hunting rifle is a bolt-action. There is absolutely no legitimate reason for any private individual to own a semi-automatic rifle.

People will do literally anything to get a tiny spot in the limelight.

And then the attorneys' attorneys will need attorneys. Soon it'll be attorneys all the way down.

I stubbed my toe this morning. I'm 100% convinced it's Joe Biden's fault.

Diplomjodler3 ,

I read the FUTO website. But it doesn't say where they get their funding from. Any insight on that?

Diplomjodler3 ,

That's pretty much what the US Republicans are doing these days.

If you drive a douchemobil, you shouldn't be surprised when people think you're a douche.

Diplomjodler3 ,

And if that doesn't work, you need to hire more project managers.

Diplomjodler3 ,

Someone earned themselves a spot on the elimination list.

Diplomjodler3 ,

Cue right wingers protesting the new "woke" leaf blowers.

Diplomjodler3 ,

There certainly are plenty of people who use those things because they enjoy being obnoxious twats.

Diplomjodler3 ,

Yeah, I figure that's the kind of thing they're going to say.

Diplomjodler3 ,

My reaction too. Next thing they'll have a hand reach out from the monitor and slap you in the face every time you log on. And people will still put up with it.

Diplomjodler3 ,

Actually, those that don't have a choice aren't affected by the enshittification quite as much. This mainly affects the consumers using Windows Home. And those definitely could try something else.

Don't expect fascists to act rationally.

US prisoners are being assigned dangerous jobs. But what happens if they are hurt or killed? ( apnews.com )

Blas Sanchez was nearing the end of a 20-year stretch in an Arizona prison when he was leased out to work at Hickman’s Family Farms, which sells eggs that end up in the supply chains of huge companies like McDonald’s, Target and Albertsons. While assigned to a machine that churns chicken droppings into compost, his right leg...

It's definitely going to be a lot slower. But the Chinese market doesn't care much about things like that.

Diplomjodler3 ,

Well, you wouldn't want to US car companies to have actual competition would you? Won't anybody think of the poor shareholders?

Diplomjodler3 ,

They're working very hard on doing away with elections so soon that won't matter.

Diplomjodler3 ,

Just falling debris from the 500 missiles successfully intercepted.

Diplomjodler3 ,

Incarceration absolutely does stick.

Diplomjodler3 ,

That was my point. They're locking people up in order to create a criminal underclass that can be exploited and used to scare the rest of the population. High recidivism rates are part of the design.

Diplomjodler3 ,

I agree that this would be a better way to go about things. But the US "justice" system isn't interested in mitigation.

Diplomjodler3 ,

No. While it's an interesting read and certainly quirky, I don't think it stands as a timeless classic.

Diplomjodler3 ,

Or maybe you shouldn't jump to conclusions quite as much.
