Still true three years later… We’ve just had a huge win with the NSW Upper House voting to lift their nuclear bans. We’ve got the momentum, Australia’s bans will all be lifted. Good thing I started young 😅

@jeremykauffman want to really die inside? i would have said "anyone who cannot do this in their head is mathematically illiterate." turns out: 97% of sophomores in the OECD (and probably 99% worldwide) cannot answer this question correctly.

@peterrhague When I was a kid, it was common for people to throw wrappers etc on the ground but then came a campaign to "Keep Australia Beautiful". The surprising thing was that it worked. It totally turned around attitudes. One of the few government campaigns that did.

@caroljsroth The term “late stage capitalism” was first used in a 1925 publication by the German social scientist Werner Sombart, according to Wikipedia. So clearly it’s just not an accurate term. You wouldn’t have late stage cancer then live another 101 years.

Anyone using the goofy phrase “late-stage capitalism” should be required to explain what happens in late-stage socialism and late-stage communism.

NSW’s Upper House last night voted 21-19 to lift their uranium & nuclear power ban. It’s the first time in recent memory a pro nuclear bill has passed a house of Parliament in Australia. This is a historic first step for lifting the state ban and other bans across the country.

The reason commies so desperately need everywhere to be run by commies like them is because if there’s a place for people to flee to that isn’t run by commies all of the productive people will flee to it. Free markets can operate fine with Communist places around, Communism collapses if there are free markets to flee to

@KurtSchlichter Very few people survive a jump off the Golden Gate bridge but there is an interview with one young man who did because of a boat's wake. He said the moment his finger tips lost touch with the bridge and he no longer could save himself he suffered massive regret.

@CynicalPublius Good old stick. You need one to ambulate properly, as a geezer. Been carrying one for the last 10 years or so, most people don't even blink when they see it. Never mind that I regularly run 5 or 6 mile routes.

Is it possible to arrive in Europe as a tourist and acquire something in Europe that can reliably be used for self defense purposes, without getting arrested?

A knifeman stabbed a woman to death in front of terrified bystanders in Barcelona in what authorities believe was a random street killing. A woman has been killed in a shocking knife attack in the streets of Barcelona in full view of horrified bystanders. The stabbing happened at around 11am in Esplugues de Llobregat, just a short distance from the Camp Nou stadium. Witnesses watched as the attacker struck in broad daylight. The victim, described locally as a young woman, suffered multiple stab wounds to the throat, chest and stomach. She died at the scene. A 50-year-old man who tried to intervene was also injured, sustaining wounds to his arm. His injuries are not believed to be life-threatening. Police say they are still working to determine whether the attacker knew the victim. So far, there is no evidence of any relationship between them. Investigators are focusing on the possibility that this was a random attack. The suspect — described as wearing jeans, a hoodie and carrying a large black rucksack was arrested just hours later in the nearby Les Corts area. Images of the alleged attacker holding the weapon have since circulated, adding to the shock surrounding the incident. As the investigation continues, one thing is already clear: A normal morning turned into a scene of terror and a life has been taken in the most brutal way.

@Pivotonian1838 (I meant lots of crows. There have been 2 actual homicides in Lake Mac this year. 1 per 100,000. Not exactly Chicago: 21 per 100,000!).

@PunishedDixie69 @dr_duchesne It would be odd if Dr Johnson used such circumlocutory language, Anglo-Saxon being such a direct language. I suppose the Normans could be blamed for that.

Dictionaries in the modern sense of alphabetically organized lists of words with definitions is a singularly White invention. European languages have the largest number of words. Europeans care about grammar and proper definition of words. Sebastián de Covarrubias's Tesoro de la lengua castellana o española (1611) is regarded as "the first modern monolingual European dictionary". Here is Samuel Johnson's A Dictionary of the English Language (1755), most of which he compiled by himself over the course of 9 years. It included about 43,000 words with literary quotations illustrating usage. It became the standard for English for over a century.

The American Tribune@TAmTrib·
The entire middle of America is essentially one giant swathe of land that is absolutely perfect for raising cattle or bison...as shown by the vast herds of bison seen by Lewis and Clark Instead, we subsidize the production of vast loads of corn that exhausts and degrades the topsoil and underground water reservoirs, and meanwhile import cheap and worse-tasting beef from Brazil that drives American ranchers out of business, while allowing a few big meatpackers to further squeeze American ranchers and drive up beef prices for Americans It's nonsensical at every level, other than that it helps certain special interests that can afford to lobby for the most absurd policies imaginable
Rapid Response 47@RapidResponse47

.@SecRollins: "Half of these meatpacking giants, including the largest meat packer in the world, are either foreign-owned or have significant foreign ownership and control, making them a threat not just to our cattle producers, but a threat to America itself."
