The spy was interrogated?

This kind of got brushed under the rug, but you might remember that China claimed they were both spy’s. The Canadian government denied this. Then it turns out kovrig was a spy, and he was accused of using the other Michael for espionage activity without his knowledge. That Michael, spavor, sued the Canadian government. The Canadian government settled for something like 7 million.

#1. Israel is the aggressor. The state has been imposed on the people of the middle east through violence. #2. Through US support, Israel is the most powerful country in this conflict. They therefore have the moral responsibility to act in a way to promote peace #3. Hamas and Hezbollah are not terrorist organizations. They’re legitimately part of their respective government’s #4. Any act you’ve been told is a terrorist act by those two organizations was very likely legal under international law. Israel is an occupying force. People are legally allowed to fight that force through violence.

I believe he’s the type of guy that’s compartmentalized. He full heartedly believes that the rich need to be taxed more and that he’ll work tirelessly to prevent it because it’s bad for business

We called it marijuana before it was legal. Marijuana is a term that’s obviously linked to Latin communities. So while it’s illegal, we’re OK with calling it something that’s linked to a community, BUT once it’s legal, suddenly we’re trying to erase that connection. Like it’s too good for that community anymore. It would be less racist to continue calling it marijuana WHILE recognizing the historical racism and celebrating the culture that ensured the plant was still here when it was legalized. Ignoring that contribution is like appropriation. Erasing the Latin influences in marijuana culture once the plant is legal isn’t anti racist.

I feel like it’s more racist to start calling it cannabis once it’s legal.

I made a prediction 2 years ago that elon would be the first billionaire turned homeless person. It was more a dream, but I’ve never made a prediction I want to happen as much as that one

Remember code is minimum. Mold and mildew resistant drywall can go on a bathroom ceiling. It just doesn’t very often because code is for the shower wall

I worked as an it business analyst for a larger multinational for a hot minute. Lenovo laptops were beastly and rarely broke. When 10 000 employees are all using t series laptops for years, with few breaking down, it made me appreciate your comment quite a bit.

I’m not trying to plug lenovo. There’s very little difference between lenovo and dell at the enterprise level. Those are the ones I have experience with and so I’ll comment on those. Just buy actual business laptops. Especially if you’re not gaming

If you take a look at their battery industry, you’ll see they’re taking it very seriously

The people with money decided they didn’t like him. That’s what changed.

It’s less the people and more the trade routes and resources. Some would argue the most important in the world

And the US has been doing the same for Israel

How is a state that’s largely funded by another state not a proxy for the bigger state? It’s not a Israel Iran proxy war. It’s a us Iran proxy war

In it’s ‘war against Hamas’ Israel has now bombed 3 countries that has no Hamas

On 538, Harris is polling better or the same in national polls. The real issue is Trump’s large lead in all but 1 swing state.

Every woman would want to date me… because of the implication

Heck yeah… I’d get better vision, better spine, … there’s a plethora of quality of life things that I think most people would be insane to pass up. On another side, having a sweet of powers that effectively made me Batman levels of ability… How could anyone actually pass that up? Literally just a peak human… Yes please.

IF Trump is the threat to democracy that the dems say, the shooting was a reasonable response. I hate this 'violence is never the answer ’ nonsense. I’ve been taught my entire life that sometimes violence is justified. For example: ww2, American revolutionary war, civil war, wars for independence (thanks Britain), Haitian uprising…

Of course they do. Those seas are notoriously rough. They need to test their ships. It’s also a show of strength.

This isn’t terribly unusual for the us to do. Is it slightly provocative? Yes. Is the narrative also fearmongering? Also yes

Exclusive economic zone is an area of the sea in which a sovereign state has exclusive rights regarding the exploration and use of marine resources. It doesn’t limit travel.
