Do you actually think they're shutting down USAID because they're going to redirect those funds to fixing American poverty or infrastructure?

Your take on soft power is as ignorant as Trump/Musk's. The game is being played no matter what. Russia and China are always playing. We just walked away from the table and any chips we have will quickly be stolen. As a rich, powerful county, we don't have the option not to play (and stay powerful anyway).

Depends on the state I imagine. But I just looked mine up and it's "in the last 10 years" and not "ever" so that's good.

In my job, I occasionally facilitate training for prisoner firefighters. Not only do they all love the job, they are also the best FD we train with. They read the material, study procedures, get it right when being observed. They get to stay at the firehouse instead of the prison itself, so both getting invited to do it and continuing to do it are huge for the inmates. They also love it. It burns my biscuit right up that they'll not be able to be a firefighter when they get out.

Oh yeah, that's where it started. My dad loved it and he'd put it on when I was younger and I'd start sawing logs.

This is true: I have seen the first half hour of every Dune... But I ALWAYS pass out around that point.

Lucifer. My sis loved it and I hated it with a passion. I don't think Ellis is any good in it and they're just relying on him (and the other actors) being hot instead of actually telling a decent story or making enjoyable characters.

The fallout will just give you cancer in 10-20 years as long as you wait to go outside for a week or so. Assuming you're far enough away that the blast doesn't kill you, stay as underground or as much to the center of a building as possible for that first week and something like 95% of the rad stuff will have decayed.

Sure some people will get enough dose to die, but more people will get sick and recover. Radiation is not like the movies.

It's worth noting that those dyslexia typefaces are at best neutral for helping those with dyslexia. It's a marketing thing. I did a deep dive on this recently.

The authorities often go with address if they don't have any other clues. When my mom died, she lived with her sister, who hates me and my sister... We found out by chance because my mom's boss reached out to offer condolences, and then we had to call the coroner to let them know she had living kids. Her sister hadn't revealed our existence.

In the case of my mother, who lived in a different state with family that hates me and my sister... From her boss, who had my sister's number from some recent situation. Wouldn't have found out for ages if it hadn't been for that. Sometimes I wonder what that would have been like, but I'm glad I don't know.

If you don't already, make sure at least one person close to your family/friends that you'd want to know about has your number and knows to get in touch.

As someone who has never paid a dime in interest on any card I've ever had, and shops around for the best reward options.... Yeah, give us the 10%!

I was going to actually pick one but I honestly don't think any of these are beyond the pale for his followers. And while he is an idiot, he has plenty of not stupid people around him that will ensure these don't happen all at once or at some critical moment - we are going to be frogs boiling. People are going to have to worry about getting food on the table and won't be able to fight back.

Thought I'd share my 16ish year old with you all and give posting a try since I'm new to the fediverse thing! Isn't she the cutest?!
