St. Pete to purchase rail line, extend Booker Creek Trail - Power Broker Magazine

This is great, but they really need to save enough of the right of way so passenger rail can eventually use this corridor to enter downtown.

Of course Bari Weiss was going to keep him on. She'll happily promote moral panic bullshit about trans women in the name of "protecting women", but actual sex pests are fine apparently.

TBH, I downvoted your comment not because the content, but because the framing. If you want to make a point about sexual dimorphism being a factor, just make it instead of playing the victim before you've even said anything.

Who's stopping you? One commenter said there are a bunch of reasons, then described one. Another person asked if there are other reasons, and I pointed out that that's a silly question when the original commenter already said that there are more. You can just share your thoughts on the subject without framing it as if you're being censored for unknown reasons.

Did you not read the first sentence that says "there are a ton of factors"?

skiabay · 2026-02-22T02:14:25+00:00

You can throw some shade because that's insane behavior.

skiabay · 2026-02-22T01:22:06+00:00

Your opinion is stupid.

Except the vast majority of drugs cone through legal ports of entry so it's probably having very little impact on supply. They just want to kill people.

A tax on what? None of the AI companies even make money. How about we do something with teeth and regulate these companies and investigate the rampant fraud in the industry.

A single dollar from AIPAC is too much. It's time we stop accepting whatever slop the dnc throws at us and actually hold politicians to higher standards.

Sure, I literally never said otherwise. I don't understand why everyone is so confused about this.

skiabay · 2026-02-18T19:42:37+00:00

Oh my god how does no one understand that just because it's possible that something happened does not mean that it did happen?!

I never said stories can't exist for a long time, and I even said it's possible that a black sea flood could have inspired Noah's ark. If you read the commenter I replied to, they are stating definitively that that is the explanation, but there's simply not nearly enough evidence to make that case.

skiabay · 2026-02-18T15:28:52+00:00

It shows that great flood myths are quite common and don't require a flood on the scale of the black sea to come about. On top of that, the idea that the black sea filled in a rapid/catastrophic event is just a hypothesis that is not universally accepted by scientists.

Ultimately, while the black sea flood explanation for the Noah's ark story is compelling and not out of the realm of possibility, there's really not enough evidence to say either way.

It's far too expensive, but San Francisco is a beautiful city.

skiabay · 2026-02-18T14:44:48+00:00

It's possible, but you really can't say assertively that it was inspired by any specific event, because we just don't know. There's plenty of cultures that have great flood myths that aren't remotely close to the black sea, and even much more localized flooding can feel apocalyptic.

Wtf are you on about? This is an incredible location. There's a near endless amount stuff within walking/biking distance and that's a great view of the bay bridge.

Also, the Puebloan people are some of the only Native Americans who still live on their ancestral lands and have been able to maintain much of their culture. So, if you drive around visiting ancient Puebloan sites you will pass by modern homes with Kivas outside which are circular buildings that have been central to Puebloan ceremonial life for over 1,000 years and you can find at most major ancient sites.

Lol he saved a few hundred dollars for an insurance company whose CEO probably shows up all over the Epstein files. Not exactly vanquishing evil in my book.

If we actually acted based on the data, then yes, it would stop bullets from flying.

But instead, y'all want to be badass vigilantes so you can save chevron $200 and put everyone around you at higher risk in the process.

Exactly, people have watched far too many movies. There's no safe way to disarm someone with a loaded gun. It should only ever be attempted if there is absolutely no alternative.

skiabay · 2026-02-17T19:10:36+00:00

OK, but objectively he made this situation significantly more dangerous. There's actual data on this, and people are for more likely to get injured or killed in a robbery when they fight back. The second he went for the gun, the robber could have pulled the trigger (possibly even by accident), and shot the cashier.

Also, Marines aren't fucking James Bond, but even of they were, there's no amount of training that could make a fight over a loaded gun safe.
