Bike is the most efficient form of transportation, even walking doesn’t compare.

Oh no, it won’t do the thing drastically few Americans do ever and the rest do once a year at best. Meanwhile i go to bed and have a full tank of gas the next day for close to free.

Bike is the most efficient form of transportation, period.

Your colon doesn't care how expensive the beef was.

Why should they not, what is with this parental-ism? Should Social Security recipients be able to buy candy? Should my employer get to choose what food I can purchase?

There's absolutely no need for the average American to eat more protein, we are eating more protein than ever and health outcomes are not improving. Likewise, the dairy intake recommendation is not backed by any science whatsoever.

Why does it matter? Illegal actions are illegal. On the 1 in a million chance this results in things getting better for Venezuela the outcome does not forgive the action.

Do you have zero historical knowledge, like absolutely none?

About the stupidest thing I’ve ever read here. Why does a US perspective not matter when the fucking US conducted the strike? If Russia decides trump stole the election in 2024 you’d just sit back and let them take over?

Oh yes indeed. For example, here's something I was just working on:

=LET(

  h, ROWS(A2#),

  names, A2#,

  vals, K2:INDEX(K:K, h+1),

  denoms, J2:INDEX(J:J, h+1),

  k, 20,

  groupAvg, SUMPRODUCT(vals, denoms) / SUM(denoms),

  adj, (denoms/(denoms + k))*vals + (k/(denoms +

k))groupAvg,
inc, (names <> "") \* ISNUMBER(vals), namesF, FILTER(names, inc), valsF, FILTER(vals, inc), denomsF, FILTER(denoms, inc), adjF, FILTER(adj, inc), r, ROWS(namesF), nShow, MIN(10, r), sorted, SORTBY(HSTACK(namesF, valsF, denomsF), adjF, -1), TAKE(sorted, nShow)
)

What kind of setting do you live in? I live in the outskirts of Denver (Cherry Creek) and commute downtown and I have to intervene all the time.

Let’s use a little logic. What are the “both sides” here? Megacorps with billions vs “local media”? Citizens?

Yes, that’s a balanced equation.

Now, do we have any evidence to back complaints?

Yes, “both sides”.

I’ve hunted down a couple old school big screen TVs, the fresnel lenses are awesome toys, you can melt just about anything using them as solar collectors.

Name media calling for the death of republicans or republican commentators.

I can name someone who called Trump a NAZI, JD Vance.

Go look at Twitter right now, it’s NYE for republicans. They’ve convinced themselves, sans evidence, that this was a leftist shooter. There are literally hundreds of thousands of posts foaming at the mouth that they can now hunt liberals and that the civil war has started. You’re doing the thing you claim to hate and frankly it’s disgusting.

P365 is great if it fits in your hand. But agree, denial has me pretty put off.
