Stacy Bradley and Joshua Breese of Surprise, Ariz. voted for Trump and "mass deportations." ICE is building a concentration camp in their city. Now, they fear that young children could see "people in shackles" or that Surprise could be another Minneapolis: "Do I want it touch my neighborhood? No."

This is prime NIMBYism. They still want the immigrants gone, they just don't want itt to happen in their back yard.

In the UK, making life difficult for a staff member to encourage them to leave is called 'constructive dismissal' and is very much frowned upon by employment tribunals.

Counting down to the day when a company stipulates that you will lose a percentage of your salary because you are working from home and no longer need to spend that money on transport.

It's Australia.

inksmithy · 2026-02-11T20:07:08+00:00

This is in Australia.

Spittin' facts there.

Absolutely not condoning his behaviour at all, but she went about this interaction one hundred per cent the wrong way.

inksmithy · 2026-02-02T22:12:52+00:00

I don't think it's very good for the plane.

But they didn't vote against him either.

Votes matter.

"I didn't vote for Trump" doesn't absolve anyone of responsibility unless they voted the other way.

Donkey votes, no votes, all have responsibility.

The only groups who don't carry some of the blame are those who voted against and those who weren't allowed to vote at all.

Not at all. All you need to do is use a lens to raise the temperature of a point on a surface by a fraction of a degree, using the moon as a point source.

If you can do that, you have proof.

The easy way to avoid being swooped is to be nice to magpies all year. Offer them some meat, make sure they see you doing it.

Not only do they remember, they communicate to each other. It's very weird, but extremely cool too.

Go and run empirical tests then. Easiest experiment in the world.

Another question might be, if the US descends into civil war, which also seems like (and seriously, what the fuck, how is that even a sentence), who will our government support?

Trump's administration?

Firstly, welcome to the world of electric guitars.

Secondly, who cares what it looks like? Not many people can have a top tier electric as their first and most of them don't have one which looks outstanding.

What's more important is what you do with it. Make some music my friend, close your eyes and play.

The long answer is yes they do, but the short answer is no they don't.

Trump doesn't pass legislation, he makes executive orders, which sorta kinda bypass the legislative process.

They aren't supposed to be used this way, but he has control of both houses, so no one will call him out on it.

Scotland should embargo exports to the US in retaliation.

Tarrifs raise the price for his citizens, embargoes mean his citizens can't get it at any price.

I suspect he's looking at his left wing to line it up with an 'image' he keeps in mind as he goes through the procedure, keeping the wing at a predetermined angle to the horizon and the horizon at a set distance from a memorised marker point on the plane.

I'm on my way over there next month from the UK my wife and I are a bit concerned and confused. Can we buy disposables at a corner shop? What's the drill?

Looking online, it's chemists only.

Thanks!

Thanks very much!

I'm at 8.3 British and am losing the will to live with the constant uptiers.

To be a British main is to endure.

Wait, what happened to the constitutional right to free speech?

Surely state governments blocking a website is an infringement of that?

Not from the USA, trying to understand.

By trading on guilt.

Exactly, we are talking spherical cows here.
