My favorite ep was with the most pretentious prick with the best kitted out shop ever seen on the show fails because his (admittedly well crafted but overly ornate) sword cut into the hand of the holder. Epic fail.

How about we just ban Internet sales.

No one reads Axios anymore. Literally every time I mention to a friend that I stopped reading Axios, they reply they stopped months earlier.

Same here, but I would use the same money to say "these guys are freaks and thieves, and no one is safe while they're in charge. Not your kids, not your folks, not your friends down the street, nobody." If someone asked about any of the rest, I'd just say "NOT SAFE WITH THESE PEOPLE" and move on.

The question I can't answer is:
On seeing that life is suffering, how can anyone not say, "hey what if we tried making things a little less worse?"
I do have an answer but it's long and complicated and probably not right.

It's very spotty and I can't figure out why. Loopholes? Payoffs?

i don’t think you can maximin vote share with polls and spreadsheets, and i think it is a problem that the most prominent and influential political commentators right now are more devotees of data than experts in narrative

I feel silly for pointing out my minor inconvenience when others are losing their lives in ICE facilities.
I guess the point is that we are all peasants now living at the whim of a king.
Ayn Rand was right that dogma would kill America but she was wrong about which direction it would come from.

As an avid cyclist I've seen lots of stories about cyclist / pedestrian accidents (Reddit) but never one where both parties were badly injured. Seemed a bit fishy and I just assumed he was either lying or exaggerating.

But new products aren't getting in.
There's a Chinese 3D printer I'm interested in that is available everywhere in the world except the US. Either tariffs or import license.
