I fuck'n called it.

And Now the OTHER thing we all said would happen.

Fuck'n Called it.

https://www.npr.org/2022/12/17/1142675809/cleanup-for-keystone-pipeline-oil-spill-kansas

Summary:
The tar sands are super toxic and a LOT spilled into a nearby creek that basically poisoned the area around said pipeline, like farms.

"In the past, when we've seen the spills happen it impacts the land for years. They not only have to excavate all of the polluted soil, there is a lot of work to be done to make sure that this isn't impacting the root system," she said. "And now all of that precious topsoil, which is critical to agriculture, is now destroyed and will be destroyed forever."

If ONLY someone thought that building a pipeline to funnel toxic oil through America's heartland wasn't such a good idea.  But alas... NO ONE saw this comming.

Like I said, the biggest issue with atudent loans (and most loans really) is how you can borrow $20,000, pay back $30,000, and be told you've got 5 years to go.

Interest is a bitch and banks do NOT want to lose that revenue stream.
Your Credit score is about how much profit they make off you, not how well you pay off debt.

You wonder?

Summary: Censorship is bad.  Labeling things as fake or false or misinformation is bad and anyone who does that will be fired, banned, and maybe thrown in jail.  And the federal government will root out anyone who engages in any kind of censorship and make them PAY!

Soon we will find out if the American taxpayer will be forced to give me thousands of dollars to pay off loans I took out or if they'll get away with selfishly using that money for something else, like Medicare or roads.

Like they put money into those things.  Pfft.

I'd just like to know when all these billions will be dead. Overpopulation is a bitch, so I look forward to it

Hopefully you got your Jab and can contribute to the well being of the purebloods.

Its a valid queastion.  Plenty of people have died suddenly long before covid.  Hell, I know two personally.  Healthy (one in 20s, one in late 30s), one exercized reguarly and they just... Died.  One of a stroke while walking from his car(blood clot), the other from a heart attack while watching his son's football game.

You'll have to forgive me for not believing a site that links to another site thats the same thing and not linking to the actual data from the official site.

« on: December 11, 2022, 04:42:45 PM »

Pointless.
Parental licensing has two major flaws.

1. No enforcement of lessons taught while parenting.  How would you know the parents are actually raising said child properly?

2. Easy to hide pregnancies for people who failed the license test.  Then what?  The foster care and adoption system can't even handle shit now.  Add a few hundred thousand more kids and its not gonna be pretty.


A required class to teach basic baby care, however, would be an excellent idea.

It should also be noted that he was removed from the seat by the judge.  He wasn't automatically unqualified nor was any of his work or votes prior removed

Legally, he's also listed as having served on the state senate.  Albiet for a very brief time.

I don't see the relevance.
The election was fresh and charges were brought quickly.  The process took some months, of course, but it ultimately ended with the judge declaring that the democrat should be thrown out.  In a non-federal election.

I have seen this rediculous piece. He does not provide any evidence at all that the field is jumping the gap and not following the wires.

He does.
The undersea telegraph cable story.

Also math.

Also also, he does say it follows the wires in typical home situations because field lines from the power plant to your home?  Yeah no.

The undersea cable story is supposed to be example that there is an electromagnetic field around the wires, but that doesn't mean the field is jumping the gap and traveling directly between the battery and the lightbulb in this setup:



Maybe he means in a trivial sense that the there might hypothetically be a few particle exchanges, in the sense that electromagnetic fields are not definitely finite like the theory that the gravity of a soda can is affecting Pluto. But the bulk of the path is going along the wires.

Could be.
But it should be easy to test by setting up a battery, bulb, and very long wires then measuring the E field between the battery and bulb.

Wasn't the initial argument that the Feds planted the docs?

Yeah, but they abandoned that for other shitty arguements almost instantly.

Yep.  And finally settled on "I'll just run for president and hope I'm President before this goes to trial."

I don’t think he’s getting the nomination at this point. Stop the steal candidates had Republicans voting for Democrats in a lot of cases. His business just received a fraud conviction, his legal team might be getting contempt charges over their mishandling/withholding/lying about classified documents possession under federal subpoena. If charges are laid before the convention he SHOULD be a dead duck.

He should have been a dead duck years ago.  I think we need to redefine possibilities. 

But as it is with the GOP slamming him, I doubt they'd give him the nomination if they can help it.  And all the republicans who tried to stop him from getting it in 2016 are probably enjoying a big, fat, 'I told you so.'

When hundreds of thousands of people were blatantly dying of covid, that was just a hoax, no big deal, not my problem.

Now a handful of people die of a heart attack, conspiracy cover up, they won't be able to hide the deaths forever, why won't anyone take me seriously?

It's all about the narrative.

Which is so... so ironic.

Or is that Hypocritical?

A non-paywall link..


https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/classified-docs-found-trump-storage-unit-independent-search-1234643286/

So... Trump's lawyers hired a company to find any missing classified documents in all of Trump's holdings and found more...

Tell me.. is that really smart?  If I were a spy, I'd have jumped so hard on that search.  And something tells me the lawyers didn't hire the best, most secure people.

Still... This tells me that Trump's new lawyers know how much shit he's in and want to make it look good.  Like "hey!  Here's more we found.  See?  We're trying really hard now.  Please be leinient on my idiot client."

The problem being that they were asked for the documents for a year, insisted they didn’t have any, then when the MAL docs were found they signed an affidavit declaring that they had handed over everything. Trying really hard to appear compliant now is a way too late.

Better than having the FBI find more themselves.

What I want to know is why you think this is vaccine related without knowing anything about her medical history or cause of death.

What, do you think people never died suddenly before 2021?
