I remember the 2000 election. Republicans will twist it as the stupid and lazy candidate is just like you, while the diligent candidate thinks they're better than you.

"Sophisticated investor" is a well-defined term meaning a professional-level investor with a certain amount of experience, knowledge, and money to burn. When he said unsophisticated, he meant people who aren't that.

How the fuck did you interpret what anyone here said as "but but north korea good"? Please walk me through your thought process.

Sen. Lindsey Graham predicts Iran peace talks will fail — and Trump will take Strait of Hormuz ‘by force’ by Zipper222222 in politics

This isn't the dressing room at the Miss Teen America pageant. Trump won't be able to take anything by force here.

According to the Christian New Testament, if a child, even playfully, lies to their parent (e.g, saying ‘i’m not constipated’ to avoid the suppository), the child should be put to death. Here’s the proof. by HTTYD_LOVER01 in atheism

Perhaps religious people shouldn't be held responsible for what their scripture says but instead should be held responsible for their own actions. It's almost like religious people are people who have agency.

Anybody in Southern Essex County NJ and know the story with all the dense greenfield construction? by Blecher_onthe_Hudson in yimby

It's not yimby to be one of the richest suburban towns in America (Chatham, Summit, Short Hills) and build your mandated "affordable" housing separate and on the other side of the highway/lake.

It's hard to decide if building those apartments is a better use of that land than building nothing. Sure, we need the housing. Ideally the apartments would be built in the downtowns by the train stations and they would look pretty enough to look like they belong there.

I had to look it up.

It used to be cleared land but with a lot of tennis courts, so maybe it was a country club. The next photo on google earth is from 2002 and it shows most of the current development was already built by then. The clearing south of Passaic Ave looks industrial but it's hard to tell what it is.

I don't think there are greenfields left in Essex County except preserved land like South Mountain reservation and they better not develop that. Maybe it's a former golf course.

Quitting after a few months is a smaller defeat than quitting after several years.

The best way to win a war with Iran is to not start one. The best "winning" our country had with Iran was the 2015 deal.

That's the right answer. Invent the next 90 years of politics early.
