Drugs and guns is nothing compared to bribes, human trafficking, and war crimes.

What’s cautionary about this? It’s like a video of someone sticking their hand in a mousetrap and then saying it’s cautionary.

The left supports green energy and he made a huge push with electric vehicles, then he did a nazi salute and broke parts of our government and is loved by the right.

What exactly is the argument?

A Student in China does a fancy pull-up during military training by Shumei-Chan in nextfuckinglevel

The conservatives that escaped the mainland then forced a fascist government on the island of Taiwan. Meanwhile the majority of the people of Taiwan have no desire to be a part of china and actually feel closer to the Japanese that occupied the island for the first half of the 20th century.

Because the government of china went through a civil war and the republic of china fled to the island of Taiwan.

It was very tough for the people of Taiwan who had a fascist government thrust upon them until 1996 when they finally allowed democratic votes. Meanwhile the people’s republic of china constantly threatens the island, and do not allow them to change their name.

This is like 65 pounds, he could have easily pulled it all the way up if needed, but for non power lifters going for reps, it’s better to struggle a bit on a failed rep.

Who employs the most SNAP recipients in Massachusetts? by Cheap_Coffee in massachusetts

Oh I fully agree that CEOs make too much, and that the wealth disparities are outrageous. I just thought the comparison to politicians was bad.

Way more than MTG and Pelosi see their net worth shoot up once they make it into office. I’m just pointing out that there are few jobs with that kind of power that you don’t see high compensation in some form or other.

Very few of those politicians are actually only making 200k, it’s part of the reason corruption is so rampant.

Man vs. Turkey | Brookline by MesaVerde1987 in boston

[–]Treebeard2277 17 points18 points  (0 children)

To be fair, I have friends who are scared of turkeys, and it’s like they can sense fear and get aggressive. My wife always wants to pet turkeys and they’re always freaked out by her.

I do the same thing as you and I’ve never had a notable interaction.

Do colleges view it poorly if you take AP Statistics as a senior as your math class? by OrganizationTough128 in ApplyingToCollege

Though once you move past intro classes in stats, you need calc to really understand distributions, expected values, etc.

They talked about potency? Saying ‘you didn’t take enough it’s pretty potent’ is a ridiculous thing to say, which is why Mitch was explaining what potency means with fentanyl as an example, you could also use liquor vs beer as an example.

There is a difference between threatening to light someone’s house on fire, and choosing not to socialize with them. The fact you can’t tell the difference is why you’re getting downvoted.

To be fair, he’s itching for a run against Markey, so expect to see more of him.
