I’m sure deaths by age group will help you feel something.

Its a game of bluff. China can make all the claims it wants, but the waterway is traditionally open navigable waters, and rules are basically “do you want to start a war to stake your claim?” You can find many recordings online of western ships passing through the strait, and a constant back and forth of;

“Turn back, you are in chinese waters.”

“This is the USS Fillintheblank, we are in International Waters performing a freedom of navigation exercise.”

“We order you to turn back now.”

“This is the USS Fillintheblank, we are in…”

Yes, it’s important to note the tone makes it sound like a provocation, good eye. China has been pushing that slant in media a few years now.

People drone on and on about this place.

Mark Cuban is a bit of a wall street asshole, but he’s created a drug company to slash the prices of generic drugs for Americans: www.npr.org/2022/01/24/…/mark-cuban-pharmacy#:~:t….

Nebraska governor signs executive order defining men as "bigger, stronger and faster" (boingboing.net)

Nebraska governor Jim Pillen, a Republican not noted as a women’s rights supporter, yesterday issued an executive order “defining” males and females and the attributes thereof. The anti-transgender political grandstanding offers fusty explanations of the sexes–men are “bigger, stronger and faster” on average–in...

It sounds like he’s thinking of six-million-dollar men.

At this point just run out to Walmart and get a frame for that pardon, it won’t save you.

Outside Houston there are homes on legacy cotton farmland, where the owners are paid to not grow cotton on their lawns.

bradorsomething ,

nothing, if you don’t want to be paid!

a long time ago, the government paid farmers to keep fields fallow, to keep down production and keep prices up. you know… price fixing, like jesus intended when he invented capitalism. these subsidies are still around, because the only thing republicans hate worse then government spending is farmers not voting for them, so you can apply for, and get, subsidies on the land in now subdivisions, and the government will give you a check for not growing cotton on your lawn.

If she pulls a McConnell I’m claiming copyright on “Nance in a Trance.”

Its interesting that he’s poking the marshmallow here, because Musk can still turn off Starlink, or make it unusable for Ukraine as much as his contract with DoD allows. This implies that Ukraine screamed bloody murder about this months ago, and DoD has given them gear to be able to bypass Starlink.

I think DoD also doesn’t like Elon having this kind of power, and allowed him to be a stopgap now that they never plan to use again. It’s interesting from a geopolitical and financial perspective for Starlink; they blew it and they’re not a future reliable partner for taking Russia’s side.

I’d say at least that’s a black eye. Good observation about the Starshield stuff.

Fulton County special grand jury recommended charges against Lindsey Graham and 2 Georgia US senators | CNN Politics (www.cnn.com)

The special grand jury in Fulton County investigating the 2020 presidential election in Georgia recommended charges against Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and former GOP Sens. David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler of Georgia, according to the special counsel grand jury report released Friday.

bradorsomething ,

Poor Lindsey, if he goes to jail they might force him to have sex and then not accept money for doing it. In fact, it might weird them out a little.

Hey, what can you say? We were overdue.

I hate changing bags, but bagged is best. I have a Riccar and really love it, it sucks a lot.

Do you know how many tires it would take to make that?

They’re being attacked on all sides, this is a radial defense. This has all weather capabilities (although they may want to change to snow tires in November).

When I read a fluff piece like this, which tries to justify the insane and out of touch actions of someone like Elon, I always immediately try to sort out the intent. Was this written by a paid PR person, or passed to a friendly outlet they know will publish for the clicks? Is it click bait by itself, with the author talking out the side if their mouth to intentionally draw arguments? Is this a “notice me senpai” article by someone wanting to get closer to Musk and his team?

If you look at the targeting, this is written for the maga and q-anon crowd (if you read this while nodding and agreeing with everything but insist you’re not like them, I have exciting news). It starts as a praise piece for Musk, but once it gets to the transitioned daughter it tips its hand. Note all the comments about woke culture and how it disgusts Musk. The reader is supposed to keep nodding along with the piece and find glee in him screwing those woke people at the end. It’s not subtle at all, but these people don’t need subtle, they need a clear narrative, a pat on the head, and to know the “other” is the right people being hurt.

A great counter view of this is Robert Evens’ “Behind the Bastards” on Musk, because it contains content from people forced to enact all the cocksure, out of touch policies of Musk and his team.

I would say you should mention he’s from Florida, but on rereading the title, it’s well enough implied.

bradorsomething ,

Florida also has a number of restrictive rules about other trades/services not accepting out of state certifications. Traditionally this has been to protect Florida trades, but has become a monopoly where service is degrading while costing more.

What are some commonly known facts that are too bizarre for you to believe to be true?

For me it is the fact that our blood contains iron. I earlier used to believe the word stood for some ‘organic element’ since I couldn’t accept we had metal flowing through our supposed carbon-based bodies, till I realized that is where the taste and smell of blood comes from.

bradorsomething ,

Let’s stick with the iron in your hemoglobin for some more weirdness. The body knows iron is hard to uptake, so when you bleed a lot under your skin and get a bruise, the body re-uptakes everything it can. Those color changes as the bruise goes away is part of the synthesis of compounds to get the good stuff back into the body, and send the rest away as waste.

In the other direction, coronaviruses can denature the iron from your hemoglobin. So some covid patients end up with terrible oxygen levels because the virus is dumping iron product in the blood, no longer able to take in oxygen. I am a paramedic and didn’t believe this second one either, but on researching it explained to me why these patients were having so much trouble breathing on low concentration oxygen… the oxygen was there, but the transport system had lost the ability to carry it.

I’d like to add that I am less motived to work then a minute ago.

I waited a minute, and I have a new, lower data point…

bradorsomething ,

Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs). These people do the grunt work at nursing homes. They change bed pans and wipe butts, they fetch things, help people stand and sit, and generally get talked down to by the lower level nurses. When I did ambulance transfer, they were the ones that actually knew the patient’s normal mental state, and how they’d been changing over time. All for minimum wage.

bradorsomething ,

Electricians get thanked in money. I’m a paramedic and an electrician. I volunteer as a paramedic because electrician pays double.

Boy, these charges of impropriety are sure creating a Devil’s Triangle of problems.

If he called no witnesses, I wonder of this is where secret Trump pardons begin appearing. It would certainly explain everyone’s eagerness to demand they be tried in Federal Courts.

Why doesn't the United Kingdom rejoin the European Union?

Admittedly, I don’t know much about Brexit, but from what I have been exposed to, it seems like a decisively economical and political impairment that made travel and business with the rest of Europe more difficult and costly. Since it is so highly criticized as a terrible move, why doesn’t the UK just rejoin the EU?

bradorsomething ,

UK would likely increase the EU’s power a little more than the EU would increase the UK’s power

This belongs on the side of a Brexit bus.

Interesting voices that are active did break off of Reddit and make their way to Lemmy. Spez did the communities here a favor by reminding people that their engaging content, moderated by volunteers, was the product he was holding hostage.

We’re pretty expensive. Honestly you have to be good at something to understand the real value an expert can bring.

I love calling NFPA and giving them a code reference and they know it off the top of their head.

bradorsomething ,

Hondas and Toyotas are expensive but last well. If you’re in the PNW, look at a suburu so you can blend in if you need to commit a crime. Seriously, if the police are looking for a green suburu outback in Washington they might as well be looking for every Starbucks.

Oh good point, I have a hybrid and just did a road trip this weekend because I wanted to cycle the gas tank after 3 months driving around town.

FBI searches for growing number of Jan. 6 fugitives (www.cbsnews.com)

For one of the biggest moments of his life, Eric Bochene wore a faded white t-shirt and sat in an empty, green-walled conference room, straining to hear the volume from the computer. He grimaced as the virtual conference technology glitched. And he frequently voiced his frustration with his situation....

How about a deck of Uno cards, since they were trying to reverse the election?
