I asked and apparently god has been really disconnected the last few years, due to obsessively working on his Community fan fiction

The Catholic Church has become very progressive recently. It takes a lot of forward thinking to acknowledge that abusing people, based on the land they are from, might be wrong sometimes. With this kind of quick change, I think in the very near future, maybe as soon as 2300, they may acknowledge that it is kinda bad for them to abuse children and women in general./s (just in case)

Thank you for your service!

Keep in mind, it was attended by people who believed that miracles and healings occurred during the event. It's not surprising there were some there who were never vaccinated or believe in any form of science

Let's see: make plastics from fossil fuels for profit--> make fuel from discarded plastics for profit--> profit!

I believe that was a separate issue. If I remember, the power outage a couple of months ago was identical to this recent one

Edit: went ahead and looked it up to make sure I was remembering correctly

In comparison: it's about 25% the land size of India and has less than 25% the population size.

The article mentions it's the worst power outage since 2021, but I seem to remember a massive outage there a 2-3 months ago affecting most of the country. I think that time shut down water pumping stations and sewage in major cities, I'd assume the same with today's outage.

I don't think even that example falls into the category of "racist attack from far right loonie gunning for Asians"

All of the info from the police, including the suspect photos, is that the gunman was asian

You answered it, these people see carrying firearms as trivial. It is like car keys or a cell phone to them. This (teacher leaving firearm in a school bathroom) has happened several times, and will inevitably continue while there's acceptance of the practice. The more insane aspect is there would be more outrage if a teacher accidentally left a copy of a state exam, a book containing LGBT themes, or an anti-religious pamphlet in the restroom.

Don't you dare try to cancel me!

I won't be surprised that they obtained the containers from a donor for 10x the market price. That's what Florida does with all their hair-brained schemes

Weird aside, but there are even a couple of companies that you can lease to own new containers. Depending where you live, shipping is the biggest cost. I was surprised how relatively inexpensive containers were (rented one for storage on land)

"A person was allowed to stay at the local jail and meet a judge"

And convict him for perjury

One is accepted and the other is applied without acceptance?

They defend civil liberties, not the person/group. A protected right to free speech is no longer protected nor a right if the state can determine what's allowed to be spoken or believed. I'd rather have a world where people can voice support or opposition to a country, than one where you are penalized for voicing either
