@zaracraves Not only containers but sealed lids that will help it last longer before it’s opened. And labels to tell you what in each bottle. And when it expires.

If you look closely you can see that all the beverages already had containers

@dissidentwest So all I have to do to get out of any crime is drive real fast?

My most liberal opinion is that police car chases are almost never worth the risk they impose on innocent drivers and bystanders. Open to having my mind changed, but unless it’s a very dangerous criminal they’re chasing I just don’t think it’s worth it.

@schmidthawk @LesBowen Oh good. It clearly was. My apologies.

@hambonedavis @LesBowen My sarcasm is lost upon you

Wouldn’t be unanimous today. Might not even get a majority.

@Demeter_Erinia An atlas, also things took way longer because you’d miss your turn and have to figure out on the fly how to get somewhere

Serious question… How did people get to places before GPS??

@schmidthawk @LesBowen This is crazy, not more racist than when segregation ended

@LesBowen Because this country is even more racist than back then. One thing is for sure, this country is more ignorant today than ever before. The idea we are more racist is so laughable yet the seals give this ignoramus seal claps.

@JunkieGeorgia @OwenReeman3 Either I pay the server directly with tips or I pay the restaurant with my $ and they pay their servers. The server is getting paid. 2/2

@JunkieGeorgia @OwenReeman3 Like I said in another comment. Spain was great. Tipping doesn’t exist. Taxes are included in the price. Preferring not tipping to tipping is a whole other argument. Especially when a service isn’t provided. But saying the restaurant should pay their workers is dumb. 1/2

Or, here’s an idea…just a wild stab in the dark Pay your staff an appropriate wage??

@iJordanMoore Lambeau is fair but there are arguments for MLB-Wrigley exists, NBA is a much more modern sport so a modern venue may be more of a Mecca for fans. Boston’s new garden, LA. I don’t know crap about hockey. I don’t even know where the Belle Centre is.

The Mecca’s of each major 4 sport… MLB: Fenway Park NFL: Lambeau Field NBA: Madison Square Garden NHL: Belle Centre There shouldn’t even be a debate.

@elonmusk Not his fault but he’s willing to play the game. Clearly Oscar’s matter to him.

Chris Nolan desecrated the Odyssey so that he would be eligible for an Academy Award …

@aquilaaudax2620 @OwenReeman3 It’s illegal to withhold tips. Some pay directly to servers some share with all staff.

@hambonedavis @OwenReeman3 But basic wage varies in different states in the USA. Some just the national wage minimum of $8 others like Washington state is $17. So surely the tip should reflect the state as well. And what guarantee the server gets the tip? Shonky bosses who don't pay living wage pays tips?

@TINKERCURL @OwenReeman3 Owners would just up the prices if they had to pay their staff more. It’s the same.

@hambonedavis @OwenReeman3 It really isn't. The owners still have the 20% on the prices. They're just pocketing it and getting you to pay it for them 😂😂

@JunkieGeorgia @OwenReeman3 Tipping culture is crazy. However the claim was “why don’t you pay a living wage” which is ridiculous. It’s understood they’re working for tips. Which does lead to better service typically.

@hambonedavis @OwenReeman3 The reason is we don’t need to have bullsh*t conversations about what’s appropriate to tip. I’ll gladly pay more to eat if I don’t have to worry about what is the appropriate percentage to tip based on whoever makes that up. It’s utterly ridiculous.

@DChadwickAuthor I agree with much of what you said. Except having lived much of my life across different regions in the U.S. it is not clearly understood that we don’t worship Mormon. I’ve been asked that exact question “who’s Mormon? And why do you worship him?” multiple times.

My fellow Latter Day Saints, respectfully, it’s time to let this one go. This is an initiative whose time has passed. I know many people still deeply admire President Nelson and wish to carry on his teachings and wishes. I understand and respect that impulse. But policing people’s language in this matter, both inside the church and out, is not only rude but also intellectually disingenuous. We leaned into the term Mormon since the days of the prophet Joseph Smith. We owned it and took it on ourselves as our identity. We did that, nobody else. We call our belief system Mormonism. This is how language works. Not only that, it makes us distinct from other denominations. This was the whole point of the restoration. Joseph Smith restored the gospel away from the apostasy that had been happening for almost two thousand years. A distinct and defining term for this is appropriate. Nobody believes we worship Mormon. This is absurd. There is no confusion of who members of the church actually worship. We worship Jesus Christ. I have never, not once in my life, been ashamed of being a Mormon. And neither should we. With all due respect to President Nelson, I implore you to heed President Hinckley’s wise words on this matter. But not only his, also President Monson’s: Dare to be a Mormon; Dare to stand alone. Dare to have a purpose firm; Dare to make it known.

@FastbreakHoops5 Not crying

Do You agree with Nick Wright?

@FastbreakHoops5 Not flopping

@FastbreakHoops5 Why?

@aquilaaudax2620 @OwenReeman3 I don’t disagree but it’s the same price. Every American knows you’re paying 20% more when you go out to eat. I loved living in Spain and even tax was included in the price. That’s just not how we do it. It doesn’t mean the servers aren’t paid a living wage.

@hambonedavis @OwenReeman3 Because people want the menu to actually show the expected price not then add this and that for other expenses. A menu show $50 and then costs $60, just show $60 ffs.

@TouchlineX Soccer… the softest sport in the world… whining about 9 minutes…

🚨 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: The half-time break during the World Cup Final will take significantly longer than the usual 15 minutes. The half-time break during Chelsea vs PSG (Club World Cup Final) took 24 minutes. FIFA’s plans will have an impact on players, whose bodies and minds have been accustomed to 15-minute breaks throughout their careers. Now there will be a longer break for the most important game of their lives. — @TheAthleticFC

Elon Musk just defended America better than every politician in Washington combined. Musk: “After World War 2, the US could have basically taken over the world and any country. Like we got nukes, nobody else got nukes. We don’t even have to lose soldiers. Which country do you want?” One nation on earth held a weapon nobody else had. Total dominance. Zero competition. No risk of retaliation. Every empire in history that held that kind of advantage used it. Rome. The Mongols. The British. The Ottomans. They conquered until they collapsed. America had a bigger advantage than all of them combined. And it rebuilt the countries it just defeated. Musk: “The United States actually helped rebuild countries. So it helped rebuild Europe, it helped rebuild Japan. This is very unusual behavior, almost unprecedented.” Almost unprecedented? It had never happened before. Not once in 5,000 years of recorded history. The Marshall Plan wasn’t foreign aid. It was the most radical act of restraint any superpower ever committed. America turned its enemies into allies. Turned rubble into economies. Turned surrender into partnership. Germany went from ashes to the economic engine of Europe in a generation. Japan went from unconditional surrender to the third largest economy on earth. Three years after the war, America was flying food into Berlin. A city in the heart of the nation that just tried to destroy it. That’s not policy. That’s a civilization deciding what it is at the exact moment it has the power to be anything. You’re being told a story right now. That America is the villain of history. You hear it everywhere. Media. Universities. Social platforms. Musk: “There’s always like, well America’s done bad things. Well of course America’s done bad things, but one needs to look at the whole track record.” Every nation on earth has dark chapters. Every single one. The difference is what a country does when nobody can stop it. And when nobody could stop America, it fed its enemies and rebuilt their cities. Musk: “The history of China suggests that China is not acquisitive. Meaning they’re not going to go out and invade a whole bunch of countries.” Probably right. China has historically built walls, not fleets. But the real question isn’t about borders anymore. We’re approaching a moment that mirrors 1945 in ways nobody has fully processed yet. AI is going to give a handful of people a power advantage that makes nuclear monopoly look quaint. If someone is going to hold that kind of power, who do you want it to be? The country that conquered when it could? Or the one that rebuilt when it didn’t have to? Every alliance. Every trade route. Every economy. Billions lifted out of poverty. All of it traces back to one act of restraint that had never been done before. And carries no guarantee of being repeated. The most powerful thing America ever did wasn’t building the bomb. It was what it didn’t do after.
