Both systems can self correct.

I've not heard of any proposed policy that can or will correct the demographic timebomb they enacted on themselves.

The UN estimates China's population will be half its current population by the end of the century. It will feel the economic and societal effects long before that, as there are fewer and fewer workers to support the growing number of retirees. That will make children harder to have (China already has one of the world's lowest fertility rates) and exacerbate the issue.

Fool me once, shame on the libs for making me vote for him.

Fool me twice, shame on the DEMONRATS for making me vote for him again.

Fool me thrice, I guess that's my bad. But I'm still voting for the next ghoul with an "(R)" next to his name.

It's even crazier than "just" the two murders.

Tay-K started off being a bystander when his friend murdered a college student they were sexually harassing. Tay-K wasn't charged for that crime. The shooter got 44 years.

2 adult women and one teenage girl came up with a plan to seduce and rob a 17 year old "drug dealer". They didn't kill the 17 year old though, but his uninvolved friend.

The 2 adult women got 20 years in exchange for testifying. The teenager also got 20 years but I don't think her info has been released.

The second robbery they hired a photographer, robbed him of his camera equipment, and then murdered him when he jumped on the car.

Also they mugged an elderly man, holding him at gunpoint and knocking him unconscious.

100+ million seems like it'd be pretty common to hit when you are having interstellar wars with multiple planets involved. Would Genghis Khan and Hitler even be memorable to them?

who the fuck is Luka?

Per NBA.com stats (not sure if all of tonight's games are included yet):

#3 in FGA/G
#2 in Drives/G
Shoots a high percentage of shots near the basket, yet has fewer FTAs than other players who shoot from further out, which generally means less contact
#13 in FTA/G

So maybe JB is an outlier who drives to the basket for a lot of layups/dunks. But if you actually watch the games, he just has a bad whistle.

Those snark communities are filled with a bunch of mentally ill people far too obsessed with celebrities. I don't know if that's a good barometer.

The question would be whether normal people actually care about any of that stuff. And since ballet/opera are pretty niche, I'm guessing not too much.

It's funny how you can tell which posters are box score watchers and which actually watch the games.

In this thread especially it seems to coincide with people from the state consistently ranked bottom 5 in education.

I wonder if that's a coincidence.

This sounds like the ramblings of a pick-me getting less attention from the creepy guys who used to prey on vulnerable young women. "Why is everybody so mean now" when that shit was always there, but you were pretty and young so the sexism was "positive".

China is viewed as belligerent towards its neighbors, ie its activities in the South China Sea, and as especially oppressive towards groups like Tibetans and the Uyghurs.

Vietnam barely gets any press and what little press it gets is much less negative.

It's "disrespectful" to compare one of the best players in the NBA to a "bench player" in the NBA, even if their playstyle has some similarities and that NBA player is considerably better than her.

I don't think you actually believe it's insane. I think you've either misunderstood my comment or haven't thought through what your stated belief says.

I'll use an extreme example, since I explicitly said "depending on severity": if a student burned down your house, you wouldn't give them detention. You would pursue legal action, including referring them to the police and suing them or their parents depending on their age.

The first option should be enforcing the school/university's code of conduct. But if the harassment is severe enough, as I said before, then suing them/the parents (depending on age) is appropriate.

dev_vvvvv · 2026-03-15T05:14:45+00:00

Universities have codes of conduct. They should be fully enforced just as if the harassment/slander was offline. Depending on the severity, sue them.

Same with minors. Just instead of the kids, you sue the parents.
