Where did I imply it’s bad?

Shouldn’t official government websites be only concerned about the people actually employed at them and decision makers?

based on their collective actions for centuries, don’t deserve it.

Found the war criminal.

The War Prayer, a prose poem by Mark Twain.

IKR? The need for maintenance eventually should be foreseen! If they went to all the trouble to put a pipe through bedrock, why not put 2 pipes, so there’s a backup?

That’s not quite it. The wastewater treatment plant is located high up on the cliffs above the ocean. It has a big pipe that they tunneled through bedrock so it discharges at the bottom of the ocean 2.3km from shore. The fatberg is in the junction between the plant and the pipe. To clean it out, they’d have to stop using the big drain pipe, and y’know, just dump sewage off the edge of the cliff into the ocean, pretty much right onto the beach.

I know that many departments have a maximum intelligence limit, but is “too dumb to be a cop” really thing?

Say what you will about the guy, but I really hope he’s sincere. He’s an idiot, but an idiot with a huge audience. It would be better to have him on our side on this.

From the passenger’s perspective, a taxi and a self-driving car are functionally identical. But back when Uber, Lyft, and the rest were offering cheap rides subsidized by VC money, all that happened was that they made traffic congestion slightly, but measurably, worse. People didn’t give up private cars in large numbers, though.

If we get self-driving cars, then people’s private cars can add to the problem by cruising around empty most of the time, and if they’re not in them, there’s nobody to be bothered by traffic delays. The only way to achieve the dream of eliminating gridlock would be to ban private cars. And if that were politically feasible, why not just do it now with transit?

How will that help? By some studies, about 30% of traffic on downtown city streets is drivers circulating looking for street parking. With self-driving cars, they could cause congestion by circulating all day instead of parking.

We haven’t banned cars, but my city did put a park-and-ride lot at each end of its one BRT line. It’s pretty great, now the haters get to complain that BRT is a failure because nobody rides it, AND that it’s useless because those lots are always full.

And you shit on her memory by using her legacy and image for hasbara in a way that she clearly would have disliked. You should be ashamed.

Take a look at the works of David Sedaris. Those fit the description, and are funny.

Indeed, never try to outrun a bush fire. Stand your ground, make yourself look big, and intimidate it by staring it down.

Does it now? Prove it.

Okay, dumb question: Where’s the video frame that shows the contact with the vehicle? The photo with the caption “ICE Agent 1 and the vehicle appear to make contact” just shows a close up of a giant turd. Certainly no vehicle in view in that image.

Same reason spree shooters choose gun free zones.

LOL. Might wanna get acquainted with what reality says 'bout that…

“FIFA PASS” to fast-track visas? Sounds like a convenient cover story for terrorists to get in easily.

How could she transfer the Nobel prize? Sure, prize winners get a medal, a diploma, and monetary award, but what’s really important is the recognition and the honor of being a Nobel laureate. A lot of them give the prize money to charity, and…

…oh lord, it’s the gold medal. [REDACTED] is such a toddler that he’s captivated by shiny, gold baubles.

Hey, is this the 500/10 guy?
