I suggest we all start revering Ahura Mazda.

Even when those aid vehicles are clearly marked and identify themselves as aid vehicles after they’re opened fire upon.
Not these Teslas, from what I understand. The type of glass they use is EXTREMELY resistant to shattering.
Ahhh, but if you read the article, this is different. This redefines it to “if you PERCEIVE there to be a threat of death or injury” - meaning that any suburban cowboy can just blast the bear wandering through their backyard and not hurting anyone because “well I figured it would hurt my kids if it came towards the house”. Kinda like how Wyoming relaxed hunting laws to allow farmers to kill pretty much whatever wolves they came across.
Honestly, same here. I despise what they enabled, and continue to enable. I also despise that they’re facing homelessness and serious healthcare issues because nobody should have to face that, regardless of how repugnant I might find their beliefs and actions. I honestly hope that they manage to get out from under this and continue to live long, healthy, and happy lives, because I believe that everyone SHOULD have these things.
That’s an odd way to spell Drake.
And those are just suggestions. Your mech, as long as it conforms to a pattern-group (read: has bits from one license or another) can look like literally anything. Wanna play a Tokugawa but it’s Blade Liger? You can do that. Wanna do a Sunzi that’s literally Big O? Go for it.
The name refers to “move on before sundown” - as in, if you’re a minority and caught there after sundown, you’d be beaten or killed or both.
I’ll be the one to point out that TMI is exactly what you want to happen in a “nuclear disaster”. Nobody got seriously hurt that we know of, the problem was found and dealt with quickly once identified, and we’ve implemented TONS of extra safeties to make sure that can’t happen again without massive alarms and Serious Lights. Could it have not happened at all? Absolutely. But in a disaster, it’s the perfect “disaster” - nobody died, nobody got seriously injured directly, the plant got screwed up, and $2b to clean up ANY disaster site is honestly pretty damn cheap when we’re talking radioactive heavy metal remediation.
So, Fukushima was a story of incompetence and bribery, not under-engineering. It was perfectly safe when built. In the 30 years after that, the owners bribed investigators again and again to cover up deficiencies that were known.
I’m not sure what the nuclear plant being occupied by Russians who forced the entire safety team out at gunpoint has to do with the plant not being safe. The team was willing, by their own words, to keep working even with the Russians occupying the plant, even just keeping a minimum skeleton crew there to safely shut down the plant if necessary. That was shot down, almost literally - and Ukraine has been VERY careful about shelling that plant for political and infrastructure reasons even though enemy combatants are using it as a shelter to launch their own artillery strikes from.
I’ll bet you anything it’s taxes.
Don’t forget megachurch pastors.
But that’s the thing. The Dems want to campaign like they have for the past century, going out and making sensible campaign stops every so often. Obama was trying to change this, and honestly had the right of it - you blast your message everywhere, all at once, KEEP REPEATING IT, and shorten the general gist until it can fit in a meme.
As Behind the Bastards pointed out recently in their Kent Hovind episode, the IRS doesn’t give a shit about what illegal or immoral activity you commit, they literally just want you to pay taxes on it.
So give me exactly what your criteria are on “shithole nations”.
Also, our entire aid spending is less than 1% of our budget normally.
Ever since the appearance modding system went in, my Hunter’s been pretty genderfluid - I tend to swap from male to female depending on how I feel that day.
Remember the times they effectively blockaded highways with their ad hoc motorcades, and they kept getting into wrecks there too?
Except I have met people championing urbanism who simply refuse to understand that not everyone can, will, or wants to do 15 miles on a bike one-way, especially in my city. It’s all starry-eyed “we’ll just make safer bike lanes and places for people to walk” without any feasible planning for housing, or realizing that “hey not everyone has the ability or pay to live close to their jobsite”. This is usually from people who are living in high-rent areas, working jobs that absolutely afford them the luxury of living just down the road from where they work, and not realizing that not every job is right next door to everyone, especially in a lot of older cities.
Shit, even Star Trek understood the idea of “hey can we make this a voice call instead of a meeting so I can literally stop the ship from exploding while we hash out the menu for the shipwide picnic”.
Nah, remember his “little guys with yarmulkes” thing back in 2016? He likes minorities so long as they “know their place”.
