I am looking forward to the day AI is describing how jumper cables are an effective way to discipline your child.

I would wager that one of the companies is going to hold all of their products that are liabilities that they expect huge lawsuits from.

Monsanto has done the same in the past.

I almost wish Jimmy Carter would run for a second term. 99? 82? Age is just a number now apparently anyway lol

I wouldn't hold your breath. His worth could be decimated 50 times over and he would still be worth a billion dollars. He has enough money and will to influence politics and has a weird fan base to boot. Also, for someone who claims to be an autistic person who dislikes people, he sure seems to be a massive attention whore.

I don't foresee him fading into obscurity anytime soon, unfortunately.

Kind of funny how this gets taken down and yet there are a plethora of discords dedicated just to almost openly selling Methamphetamine... shows you who holds real power.

Wow. I just had to click on a link on an article to find the video (because why embed... that's crazy talk) to be taken to a tweet that contained a tiktok video.

This experience could only be improved if the tiktok video was a person summarizing a reddit post.

What a world.

We could have had Al Gore instead of Bush if the Supreme Court didn't toss Bush the crown because... reasons

Yeah. Even in the US many municipalities outsource almost the entire ticketing process to the company selling the cameras, and the company collects a (usually outsized) percentage of the fees. So the company has the incentive to use whatever shady tactics to increase ticketing infraction events. This could be by changing the camera angle slightly to falsely get plates from yellow throughers or sometimes they change light timing itself to increase ticketing events..

Hasn't he been relatively open about his habitual micro and macro dosing of ketamine?

The two biggest things we could do to curb the cartels in Mexico there is absolutely no political appetite for.

First we need a real federal gun registry database to start drying up the influx of weapons. Almost every gun in Mexico came from the US, almost half of the trace requests come up blank because these forms are all filed on paper in a warehouse that they aren't even allowed to index properly. The most nauseating thing is the gun Industry is in on it... don't believe me? Look up (38 Super El Presidente model).

Second we need to legalize drugs. You can make it so it needs to be bought through a doctor and or psychiatrist, but make all that shit pennies on the dollar. Weed revenue might have dried up, but a significant portion of the rest of their revenue comes from harder drugs.

I used to be in the small beer business and I can tell you that 95% of the time a microbrewery randomly has a raspberry or strawberry or blueberry ot whatever offering its almost without fail a beer that has gone "off" when fermenting. A beer being "off" won't make you sick or anything, but it does impart a harsh flavor, many times it will be bacto infection that hints towards vinegar. Smaller breweries don't want to toss whole cycles (shortsighted, I know), so instead they dump massive amounts of fruit flavorings to cover it up. Or turn it into a "shandy"

I implore you all to stop purchasing any seasonal shandys or fruit beers that they don't regularly advertise. The whole thing is a bruise on the industry.

Edit: Some people are interpreting this to say that fruit beers are bad, or are all repurposed. The point is just buyer beware, it's an incredibly common way to save batches that don't taste right.

And yeah... most small brewers despise brett and adjacent bacterias, with a passion... it's just stupid invasive in any system that isn't all metal and glass, and even then still can somehow find it's way.
