Burying highways would make such a difference. Things would be so quiet.

That boat sailed with Murdoch buying out all the news companies and beaming his rags and "news" channels around the western world after he conquered Australia. He used his power to weaken laws that used to hedge against this kind of nonsense.

Lmfao, the russian military is using telegram? That is insane. We use it for furry groups. Can't believe they'd trust it for life or death situations. Develop your own secure communication, morons, haha.

Just build a subway. This is already a subway with extra steps and less capacity.

Everyone around Trump seems to either end up in prison, a convicted felon, or in rare cases, dead. Funny how assholes and weirdos seem to gravitate to him.

I think it could work here! My US city does concrete bike lane berms. Cars have to park in designated areas because they can't cross the concrete blocks or planters. My city has been putting in some speedhumps, too. The only complaint is that the infrastructure needs to be going in even faster to make it safe and approachable to whole families!

415k troops vs 1,000,000 troops. Holy shit.

I hope changes like this make them taxable. I want a fat cut of all that cash they are hoarding.

Yeah, it really fucking sucks when there's only one form of transportation and virtually no alternatives. I've lived in places like that, and it's always infuriating when your car won't start and you are already running late for work. And the nearest bus is really slow and on a half-hour basis. My old city didn't even have bus stops for awhile, you just had to flag the bus down and hope they saw you.

Yeah, hopefully that is shifting a bit more. When a bike system works, it is really nice. But many cities are just now realizing that they can be more than toys. It took our city to a breaking point before they realized that there was no physical room to keep adding lanes to the highways and roads around the city now that things have been built up. We still have traffic so bad that it can take upwards of an hour to move two blocks, though. That's starting to change now, finally.

Heh, the first step in a long series of steps towards orbital shipyards and coriolis-class space stations.

The future is looking bright.

 

Once he got back to Ukraine, he signed back up for military service.

 

He took barren and dry lands and turned them into incredible forests. People thought he was insane as they fled dying villiages. They burned his forests. He replanted his forests and tripled his crop yields, becoming a hero to farmers all over.
