Tbh, if we have the means these days to hold as many soldiers individually responsible as possible then we oughta. It can dispell the power of "just following orders".

They show up at Goodwills a lot.

My time in a couple of those places were shitty at points, but the stories from kids who transferred from worse facilities than mine were always horrifying.

I figured but got curious since the article didn't even say. Then I got to learn about savanna monkeys for a joke.

It's a good day so far.

Savannah.

Dummy should've had a patas or vervet...

I'll smother that cat in butter and make some roly-poly pudding, Beatrix.

Our military power and logistics would do a lot for building/rebuilding infrastructure either to prevent or help after climate disaster.

It would be a way to avoid "footing the bill" by providing an invaluable service, and not copping to a dollar amount of responsibility (what truly matters), if others are helping fund resources. No messy "reparations" talk for stupid culture wars, and can even try to turn it into a "rah rah USA!" thing watching our boys kick ass and help the world. Shit, I'd even feel some pride for us sending them overseas for once in my lifetime.

It would actually be peacekeeping missions without shooting anyone. What a concept.

Plus, what politician doesn't like more excuses to keep the military machine up?

No, not at all. That is chronic wasting disease, an infection caused by prions, a much more scary contagious entity separate from viruses, bacteria, parasites, etc.

Prions, unlike COVID, are not a virus, but a misfolded protein that prompts others to misfold. The most commonly known prion disease is Mad Cow Disease.

They have a nasty habit of surviving for a very long time outside of a body, can't be sanitized away with anything short of undiluted bleach or similar, and need high, continuous temperatures to incinerate. They propagate in the infected for years before any symptoms show, and there is no known cure.

I mean, now that I've taken a look at that article, it kind of explains quite a bit there to tell you it's not a virus like COVID.

Historically, targeting oil lords makes them all kill-y. These days at best, if you're in a Western democracy country, you'd probably be blacklisted and buried to whatever extent possible.

Unfortunately making a ruckus among us is probably one of the most effective options, and if they believe their, and all our, lives are on the line I'm thankful it's at least this sort of thing.

Historically, nothing to lose mentalities for existential causes don't go well either. Shit, less on the line in the 70s and there were the bombing type of eco-terrorism. I'm honestly surprised we haven't hit that, but maybe it's just less lead in the air...

I mean... We keep hitting the same cycles of self abuse as a species. We always love these guys until we realize they're hurting all of us.

>despite Musk’s claim that SpaceX withdrepw its request,

I get it's minor, but these sort of mistakes used to be more common among small outlets, but I see them all the time on the major news sites now.

I thought I gave some strong hints too.

I, for one, want all US labs to carry resources for every disease and virus they are unlikely to ever encounter.

To canc'err is human.
