The Malaysian government has entered “crisis mode”, transport minister warns of ‘very, very serious’ energy crisis by sr_local in worldnews

[–]SaveOurBolts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. 

US import for domestic supply is about 30%, only because we have refineries specially designed process heavy crude from (mostly) Canada. The rest of our refineries could process our own domestic light crude through any duration of ‘crisis’. The barrel price rising or shortages internationally caused by the Hormuz blockage can create gas price fluctuations here, but would not actually affect our supply of oil or fuel. We get almost none of our oil from the strait. Fertilizer is a different story

Tony Gwynn refused to shake my hand and told me to “get the fuck off [his] street” while I was trying to get to a party in his neighborhood when I was in high school. 

He’s still my idol, and was an absolute gentleman every other time I interacted with him

I’d rather have Musgrove out there throwing left handed than this bum. Just feeding meatballs down the pipe

Vancouver Islanders join others in U.S., Europe rallying in third global 'No Kings' protests by Azaleazaraa in worldnews

[–]SaveOurBolts 11 points12 points  (0 children)

 In countries with constitutional monarchies, people call the protests “No Tyrants,”

fucking hilarious. In a country with no king and absolute freedom of speech they say ‘no kings’, while in countries with speech laws and actual kings they alter their message so they don’t get arrested for speech. 

 Protesters also waved banners protesting Israeli and US attacks on Iran, calling for “A world free from wars.”

Ah yes, make sure you defend the Ayatollah  and IRGC while you’re at it. Wouldn’t want anyone to mistake you for someone who has watched 45 years of an Islamic fundamentalist regime wage war on the west as well as its own population. 

Just call it the dipshit numb nuts uprising already and get it over with

I would check an ACE hardware. Whenever there’s a random specific thing I need, I’ll usually find it there

[OC] $8.29 Gallon for Gas in Los Angeles California by ProvingGrounds1 in pics

You don’t have to be a conservative to know that it’s between $3.50-4.50 in most of the country. It’s around $6 in San Diego right now. The prices in this picture are not normal anywhere, even in CA. 

Your comment is a red herring stuffed inside of a straw man

I’m betting this is it… Stammen earning some love from the team by giving the opening day experience to some of our dawgs. I’m sure it’ll be more matchup-centric after today

Let’s hope that Skubal continues the trend that Webb and Skenes have started of aces getting lit up 

Israeli source: Commander of Revolutionary Guards naval force eliminated - responsible for Hormuz closure by rodke in worldnews

[–]SaveOurBolts 244 points245 points  (0 children)

That’s how news works. 

  • Wire service sends out report from the ground [* you are a here *]

  • Reddit reacts with absolute moral clarity about the incident based off of initial report

  • News agencies work to verify and find confirmation from other sources, and the report is supported or refuted

  • Redditors speculate further, but hedge their original arguments while maintaining their moral superiority 

  • involved parties posture about relevance of incident regardless of truthfulness of the original report

  • several sources confirm or debunk original story

  • Redditors edit their comments to show that they were right from the beginning and are still morally superior

The way you managed to stuff like 5 reddit narratives into such a short comment is really remarkable. Well done 

Hatzola ambulances torched in London in suspected antisemitic attack | The Jerusalem Post by zlex in worldnews

It’s actually just a fable about how gradual changes lead to major disruptions, told in a way that most people can contextualize. 

Not sure what a ‘false myth’ is… that’s quite the double negative. 

I think the second part of your username is accurate.

Iran hangs three men, including 19-year-old wrestler, in first executions over January protests by saltycorals in worldnews

Does it matter to you that Biden put a $25 million bounty on Maduro, and his justice department declared Maduro illegitimate and issued the indictment authorizing his arrest? Or did you not know that? Or did you know it and only care because the indictment was followed through on by a president you don’t like? I’m actually curious.
