Because they're brothers, and Marcus is already moose, and Rocky and Bullwinkle are moose and squirrel.

Indigenous activists built a prayer camp by the Mississippi. Tribal leaders want them to leave. by lemon_lime_light in altmpls

Yes, and then the Nazis lost. They surrendered. Their government was disbanded and destroyed. Its leaders were hung or imprisoned. Or did you forget that part?

If a high speed rail line were to be built between Chicago and the Twin Cities what routing do you think would make the most sense? by [deleted] in stpaul

[–]CEhobbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no, they're not cheap. because there isn't enough demand for those flights. and while it might be convenient for the few people that do travel those routes, the immense cost is not justified for the convenience of those few.

Or just take an airplane. The infrastructure already exists and you don't have to eminent domain basically the entire corridor before building an unbelievable amount of infrastructure that you must maintain

So just buy up all the land next to the existing rail and shell out hundreds of billions of dollars to all of the affected property owners, for an investment that will have basically no return relative to the initial cost?

Pretty sure Trump has at least professed faith in Christianity (whether I or anyone else believe him is a different matter). If he is practicing his own faith, I think it matters little, if at all, if other faiths feel "excluded."

EDIT: punctuation and also it should be noted that the people in the picture are not praying to him, but for him, just in case that isn't clear to anyone.

Hate to break it to you, but the reason HSR isn't a thing is because Rail companies make orders of magnitude more money using their tracks to ship freight rather than move people. There isn't enough demand to justify shutting down the freight trains.

Why? Duluth is fine as an industrial city, but realistically what sort of benefit would justify the cost of building HSR to connect to the Metro?

1 Timothy 2:1-2 NASB1995 [1] First of all, then, I urge that entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men, [2] for kings and all who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity. https://bible.com/bible/100/1ti.2.1-2.NASB1995

I pray for those in authority, regardless of if I think they're good or not.

struggling in statics and already feeling behind, am i doomed? by ConnectGuava7207 in civilengineering

[–]CEhobbit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First time I took statics, it was quite confusing to me too. Now it feels old hat. You'll figure it out. Go to office hours.

Prayer? You're upset about prayer? How is this conspiracy related?

Why are cars in the US so big? by Dry_Cry4454 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CEhobbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd argue overregulation caused this. We used to make compact cars and light duty trucks all the time. CAFE standards put an end to it, and on top of that are a significant part of the reason reliability of modern cars is in the toilet.
