His dithering, weak, incoherent performance in the debate? Or is that already forgotten?

Seriously, there's better eating on a pigeon, and they're easier to catch.

It's mindless and morally reprehensible to valorize someone's suicide, regardless of the excuse they might have given.

What point did it get to? How frequently does it happen, or is it just a media frenzy based on isolated incidents?

Media loves to stir up fear of crime, even as the crime rate declines. It'd be useful to see some facts.

It's a lot easier to build when you can tear down people's houses anytime you like to make way for the train tracks.

And until that long-lead-time investment in public transport pays off, we'll still need cars, and the choice is gas, hybrid or electric.

How convenient for them.

That's good. Those goods are straight from factory to landfill, with only a brief operational life.

Yeah, the Russians are winning at the rate of 1000 dead or injured Russians per day and are having trouble press-ganging more young Russian men to be thrown into the meatgrinder. Their own manufacturing capability can't keep their troops supplied, their losses of artillery and tanks exceed their ability to replenish them, and they're buying ammunition and light armaments from Iran and China with money they don't have.

And their three-day war is well into year 3.

If Russia is rewarded for its aggression, they are not going to stop with Ukraine. You're not getting peace by appeasing them, you're getting a guarantee of more war, more massive civilian casualties, more refugees, increasingly close to currently secure Western countries. Russia will not stop until it is forced to stop.

That's what he did (and more) for the Taliban.

Even at the time, most people know homeopathy was a crock, even when Hahnemann started the quackery.

And Mary Baker Eddy was so mentally ill that she believed her own bullshit. Just another example of the infinite gullibility of cult followers.

Someone must have thought that's where the pet kitchens were located.
