Some information is legally required for them to disclose, if they’re acting in their official capacity. I feel like development on public land is too big to hide.

Food is a good example. HN can talk about the effect of AI on industry. The average person is fully prepared to blame AI on any incidental food shortages. Maybe even the next pandemic.

Where could it have affected totals? Only southern states.

Wisconsin in 2016 couldn’t have changed the electoral college.

Since the President has no constitutional role in running elections, what do you think this order is meant to do?

With so many strong opinions on the purse strings, maybe he would be better off running for Congress.

RFK Jr has elevated mercury; he says due to eating top predator fish. He underwent chelation therapy and still exhibits some of the symptoms in my opinion.

There’s some charm to the nearby 1919 chalk kiwi bird. WWI New Zealand troops bunked there.

The first North Korean test was Oct 2006; he wondered today whether that was Clinton or Obama era.

Why? The only question left is what humiliation awaits the USA in return for its blood, treasure and reputation?

Waking up one day to see the Fox logo instead of Roku will remind people about the non consensual TV options in a hospital.

The French 75 was the best mobile gun in Europe. They entered the war expecting to be mobile and were the first to use poison gas. Compared to the Imperial Russian Navy? I don’t see it. The most dramatic lesson was that Japan prefers surprise attacks.

Thanks for linking to Legally Mine; the executives in common with Bricks & Minifigs, and franchises put up as collateral with Legally Mine.

An example shown when I worked around a 7000A rail was also two men. One formed a circuit and the other tried to pry him off.

The Bricks and Minifigs CEO has a degree in psychology from Brigham Young University. The American Fork police are high school graduates, members of the LDS community. In the body cam footage, note how one refers to the other as “brother”.

Maybe envy, as a sin, was easy to see in premodern times; as the number of children, rather than tax bracket.

I wonder how many people think about the options we can offer to our children. Will my future grandchildren have access to gene therapy? Or has generational wealth already closed the door for the upper-middle class? Maybe that’s jealousy or envy.

Or under the plume of heavy metals from coal. That land, near the transmission infrastructure of a coal plant, is only good for solar farms.

It’s seen in Crusader terms. A bunch of things which are not Christian, for example controlling social order at all costs, are adornments on nationalism. The apocalyptic parts of QAnon slot into their belief system. So many other religious movements rely on salvation. Another commenter mentioned ancient China. Big political upheavals swept ancient China based on very slight new ideas about salvation.

Maybe not directly. In 1947, it became the Department of the Army, and in 1949 the Department of Defense. Bernays was working on Engineering of Consent at the time, and applied psychoanalysis was very subtle compared to simple Orwellian name changes. For example, Bernays wanted to get women to smoke cigarettes.
