No they said beauty standards are rooted in white supremacy. Meaning things like modeling agencies prefering they models to have hair styles and textures that are more likely to be found on Caucasian models.
Greenwich, now you go and bring ole Henry VIII into this... Surely that'll help
Well if we're all going to be in one time zone, then one has to be designated as the True Earth Time, and the world's governments.have already decided which one it is.
Haha. Hope your having a good day
Likewise. 🍻
As time is relative to us, why not make it static.
Because we already have, when the time zones were created. All time zones are just offsets to UTC/GMT. And as you've observed, society at large wants to use a localized offset because it just feels natural to do so.
Take the guns first, go through due process second.
No, my argument is that time zones are a formalization of what we observe in physical reality: that different parts of the planet are experience a different phase of the Earth's rotation through direct sunlight in at any given moment. They can't ever be perfect, so we all have to agree to a best approximation, and some communities decide for themselves that they don't want to have a a dividing line through the middle of their city, and that's fine because the whole system is meant for co-ordinating over long distances.
Post summary says he's calling for a pardon on the campaign finance fraud case (the porn star hush money). So assuming that's an accurate summary he's not calling for a pardon on treason. Also it's a state crime so it's not one the president can pardon anyway.
Time zones weren't established to adjust for north/south variances, they're for east/west. And we don't adjust the clocks to make sunrise and sunset fall on consistent time of day throughout the year. They're so that we can reliably account for what the local time is somewhere other than where we are (in the USA they were created for cross-continental railroads to publish train schedules). We already have GMT/UTC and every other time zone is defined relative to that, so why don't you just personally use that in all your own devices and communications already? Nothing but you can prevent you from doing so.
But the time indicates your relative position in the Earth's rotation. The number 13 in reference to the rotational cycle means the sun in the sky is a particular number of degrees away from your position on the earth and it only that particular value in that one geographic slice of the planet. You can personally choose to use UTC/GMT for yourself if that's what you want to do, and meeting invites you send and receive will all correct accordingly for the configured time zone.
What the fuck is wrong with timezones?
The US tried full DST under Nixon and it didn't last through the first winter.
If they do permanent Standard Time instead of Daylight Savings Time then it probably will go better.
DALLAS – Major League Rugby, the premier professional rugby league in North America, announced the results of the 2024 MLR College Draft on The Rugby Network on Wednesday.
The draft consisted of three rounds of 12 picks each, totaling 36 selections by MLR franchises.
The 2024 MLR College Draft was the fifth in league history, featuring the deepest talent pool to date. St. Mary’s College of California saw six players drafted, the most in this year’s draft, while a total of 22 schools were represented with selections.
Anthem RC selected Erich Storti with the first pick. Storti joins Rick Rose (Miami, 2023), Sam Golla (Dallas, 2022), Eric Naposki (Dallas, 2021), and Conner Mooneyham (Dallas, 2020) as the first overall players to be taken in the draft.
MLR uses a “Draft and Follow” approach where rights to drafted players will be assigned following the MLR College Draft. Teams may activate those rights at any point until the mid-point of the next competitive MLR season after the player is eligible to play in the MLR. Drafting teams may sign those players or trade player rights with other MLR teams.
The league hosted its first MLR College draft in 2020, which saw 24 players selected across two rounds, but commensurate with the growth of the league, the draft has grown into its current form today.
A complete breakdown of the each pick by round is available [in the link]

There already exist leftist parties. They languish in obscurity thanks to our election process. We didn't get a new right-wing party, we witnesses a determined enough voter base take it over through primaries starting with the Tea Party and culminating with MAGA. We need more leftist candidates and voters showing up in the Democratic primaries to wrest the party away from the old guard.
