Yeah, that's fair. US mindset, I'm just still processing our shitshow.

Theoretically, sure. Pragmatically, we just elected a fascist insurrectionist, and it's not going to happen in the near future.

When you vote in a Nazi, expect Nazis to be validated.

I can not imagine a sequel to Gladiator being as good as the original...but, damn, imagine if it was. That first movie is a classic.

It's below the first one now, according to the page's update. Not that rottentomatoes is super accurate on movie quality anyways.

They aren't wrong.

Clinton left a booming economy and projections to reduce, if not eliminate, the national debt in 10 years. Then came another Bush. Bush left a shitty economy for Obama, through bullshit tax breaks for the rich during a time of bullshit military spending among other dumb actions. Obama fixed things. trump inherited a booming economy from Obama, and slowly (maybe quickly) ruined it through gross incompetence. Biden inherited a shit economy and inflation from that moron, trump. After dealing with fallout from stupid trump policies (that's being generous), Biden managed to turn things around and the economy was once again doing pretty good. Now that dipshit trump will give his idiot voters and the rest of us another shitty economy that the next Dem will have to try to fix. The wheels on the bus go round and round.

Two others were more lightly injured in the struggle that one police source said had broken out around 8:00 am as the teenagers involved were on their way to secondary school.

It was not immediately clear what triggered the fight, in which weapons including the axe, a knife, a samurai sword and baseball bats were used.

Damn. I thought some US schools were rough.

I grew up watching the TV show and didn't hear the song with words until I was maybe a senior in HS. Kind of blew me away.

If we jail people for riding drunk

Not sure where you are, but in my state they do.

For me that is much more than a pet peeve.

I just went for the heavy use of blocking those types, and my experience on here has gotten way better. Otherwise, my user experience was just a fire hose of outrage and performative pearl clutching.
