Worst summer (so far). This coming summer will be a shocker. They'll just keep getting worse.

I think he's all about opening floodgates just for the chaos it creates. So long as they don't expose his personal corruption, why not?

I work in government and spend all day remoting into judges', prison officers', and social workers' PCs. The most sensitive material you can imagine and all of it on windows.

Why do you guess that?

We have drivers licenses on phone's already in my state. A lot of people only use the phone version. I was thinking the other day about how I wish I could use my phone instead of my key fob.

The idea isn't new or obscure but there is an academic source. Have you never heard of alt-right idiots complaining about soy boys? You know they are referring to men who have been emasculated because of aversion to meat and consumption of estrogen-like soy products?

Meat eating is tightly connected to manliness. Also ideas of freedom. People think doing away with meat would mean more austerity and an attack on their individuality. You could sit someone down, join the dots for them linking meat to environmental catastrophe that affects them and they will still laugh it off with a vapid joke like in the meme.

The number 0 still exists. The chart does show arbitrary values higher and lower than the line. Choosing a lower limit other than 0 is a dishonest choice. It's the first lesson I taught kids about when I touched on media literacy. Ask yourself why the author chose the mode they used and any arbitrary choices they made.

Canada won't be as eager to take US refugees as you hope. I can't think of a small population dealing with massive refugee inflows from a place that much larger. Think of how destabilising the refugee migrations from Syria were on Europe. Lots of LGBT and sympathetic cases of course but lots of crazy and the amount of entitlement would be overwhelming.

The rest of the industrialised worried will have angry Americans in their faces screaming about their first and second amendment rights every day if there is an exodus.
