They really have taken leave of their senses. The Minister is just going to make all planning and environmental decisions personally, and he wants the Oireachtas to waive pre-legislative scrutiny?!

Hmmm... after some deliberation, I'm going to have to go with 4-6 of Super Mario Bros 3. I loved Big Island as a whole but having a level that actively lets you swap between giant and normal sized assets by entering doors was just magical to me as a kid.

I wouldn't claim to be an expert on the subject in any capacity but I can't help but think that "local community-based deliberation is the only moral path" is a good way to get, y'know, lynch mobs.

For anyone using runway models as a physique goal:
1. Don’t.
2. Don’t, because their features that look especially amazing and unusual are genetic. Yes, they tend to eat with deliberation and exercise as a matter of routine, but that’s just refining unusual features they were born with.

This is my experience, based on being on three full-deliberation criminal trial juries in DC:
-Membership very diverse. Prof at Georgetown + welfare recipient. NIH researcher + unemployed. All I sat on: majority-Black, majority female.
-Reasonable discourse.
-*Eventually* all found: Guilty.
-Membership very diverse. Prof at Georgetown + welfare recipient. NIH researcher + unemployed. All I sat on: majority-Black, majority female.

Research shows that more diverse juries are less quick to convict, and that they deliberate longer and more carefully.
A landmark reform by Governor Phil Murphy on Sunday will make the jury pool in New Jersey a lot more representative of the state.

In a Final Act, New Jersey Governor Opens Jury Service to Thousands with Convictions
New Jersey has been one of the harshest states in banning people with records from juries. Murphy’s order restores eligibility to over 300,000, but stops short of permanent change.

Auch im Falle #Grönland ist längst nicht mehr die Frage, was #Europa, was die #EU, was der Rest-Westen WOLLEN, sondern, was sie KÖNNEN. Und das ist nicht allzu viel.

Performative Deliberation is the appearance of pluralism without its substance. People claim to “welcome diverse views”, but in practice certain conclusions are forbidden, certain perpetrators are untouchable, and debate is allowed only inside a narrow ideological corridor.

Jeanine Pirro loses case after shockingly quick deliberation
Glenn Kirschner and Bryan Tyler Cohen have a good laugh.
I also have never seen a 35 minute not guilty verdict. (Dare to dream) That is barely enough time for the jury to get settled.

I paid very close attention to the deliberation around the selection of the new MN flag in 2023. My personal favourite won (F1953-B2), but it was altered to the design used today. Now, I see that it was destiny.

just remember:
"Arousal that raise blood pressure can increase impulsivity and aggression, which can in turn affect how someone behaves when armed.
Such a state is associated with higher levels of stress hormones that can narrow attention, speed up reactions, and reduce careful deliberation."
