Hope they use some serious chemicals cause I once made stamps with potato and I swear there was more ink inside then on the outside of the patato. Would like to see those decorated potatoes once they start growing roots.

Imagine companies explicitly mentioning the year it was fda approved and people talking about it like they do about a vintage

It's like every morning they browse through the menu of smart things to do without realising they have sorted the whole thing the wrong way around.

Friday, as in last week in 2025?? I had to check the source since I couldn't believe there are still court cases being held over 23 years after 9/11.

The case has been wending towards a resolution since the May 2012 arraignment of a single, fundamental issue: whether the government would be able to introduce “clean” or admissible statements by defendants at a death penalty trial following their years of isolation and abuse.

This man has been 10 years in custody already and still is not convicted? Aside from what he has or hasn't done that must truly suck. Or would it help you keep hope? I don't know but I am very surprised by this to be honest.

Heating and cooling buildings both cost immense amounts of energy, but in places where spaces are heated the global rise in temperature generally means less energy is needed for heating because it is less cold. I don't have the experience that discussions about this favour the ones living in colder climates over the ones living in warmer climates, but if you feel this is personal let me say that you shouldn't sit in scorching heat just because the world fucked up and shouldn't feel bad about using an airconditioning. Spending a long time in high temperatures actually kills people. I was not in any way saying the people who right now don't have airconditioning should not get one, just that it is better for the global temperature a lot of people don't have one.

I think in a direct sense you are right, but they will also have to spin the economic consequences and they might be able to spin the story but they don't get to choose about everything. He might only be able to solve this by starting another war somewhere else, which they could also spin to be believable but they can't decide wether they will win that war either. Also I think the reasons the war was started are very different to why they are continued.

No offense, but I think Moscow Times has better access to secret (true) data, the fact that the published result is not trustworthy doesn't mean russia doesn't have a real number. They (the russians I mean) are known for having obsessive amounts of information about all kinds of things.

In the case of the war of Ukraine i understand Amnesty International isn't really a friend to Ukrainians, which seems weird because they are the one targeted by an aggressor. But I think it is fair they remain critical, while I also think it is unfair when they don't criticise all parties in the same way. But I do hope you see truth in the saying that an imperfect ally is not the same as your enemy. They aren't on Russia's side on this, generally they are not on anyone's side and they don't want to be. Not saying what they're doing is always fair, but them putting in effort to get the EU to pressure Bhutan should not be discouraged because of what they say and do in another conflict. What you're doing is unfair to the political prisoners Amnesty is speaking out for.
