Ah yes, a piece of tape. Tape can definitely not be lifted and replaced, right?
I took a quick looks and seems like Mississippi has many drive through daiquiris bars also.

Good article. Shitty title. Also from the article, “The rise of settler militias is not a new phenomenon.”
They’ve been doing this for decades. What’s new is them being so emboldened by the rhetoric and backing of the Israeli police state that they’ve begun attacking IDF soldiers who they deem not supportive enough during their attacks on Palestinians, and raiding IDF bases for supplies and weapons.
I came looking for the meme pic, stayed for the story.
I remember reading years back that Mississippi is the only state where it’s legal for the driver to drink and drive (as long as they keep it below 0.08). Multiple defenders on Reddit said its safe because its still below the legal limit.
Couldnt be related, could it? Nahhh

USA is definitely the most car-brained nation, but I don’t think that miles-travelled alone stacks up when comparing states.
As an example for 2022 data from FHWA it shows that Mississippians drove 17,699 miles average, while Minnesotans drove more, at 17,887 miles. Yet Mississippi has more than triple the road fatalities.
Even if you take Mississippi as an outlier, many other states are well over double Minnesota, with similar miles-driven: South Carolina, New Mexico, Oklahoma.
Mississippi has drive-through combo shops: liquor store / DMV / KFC.
Saves time on your way to and home from church.
The USA started cracking at the foundations when McCarthyism began, demonizing an ideology that was ultimately about sharing resources. You can draw a straight line between the Red Scare and the anti-socialism proudly shouted by modern Republicans and the MAGA movement today.
For anyone who identifies as conservative, this rabid vilification of socialism has rotted away at even the idea that the government should exist to service the people, let alone advocating for it. So instead they advocate for tearing it all apart and hold firm to the ‘rugged individialism’, “the Free Market © will provide” nonsense that has never worked as far back in history as we can peer.
Its so toxic, and it serves only the most wealthy. It’s gone so far and for so long now that I don’t see the lessons being learnt and course correcting with words alone.
I legit do not understand your comment.
My Aussie mate back in England told me that the British killed the First Nations and took their land,
With you this far. Yes your Australian friend (who was in England at the time) told you that the British killed the first nations people and took their land.
like his ancestors just turned up here to find swathes of unoccupied land and were like “crikey, what’s been happening here!” and immediately started doing Acknowledgement Of Country at the start of every office meeting.
Now you’re saying your Australian friend was foolish to ideate that his ancestors just turned up in Australia to find swathes of unoccupied land… and then start making Acknowledgement of Country statements.
First of all - how is this not contradictory to the first part of your analogy? He didn’t ideate that.
Second, the Acknowledgement of Country statements didn’t start until 200 years after colonisation… So this is really disingenuous representation you make of your “Aussie mate’s” position.
They can. The newer ones have mandatory ‘drum clean’ cycle every 20 washes or so that runs hot with no detergent and helps to kill and blast out any potential accumulating grime/mould.
So far so good with ours (midrange Samsung front loader). Not expecting it to match the record of of last one, which was an LG and ran for 20 years, but so far it’s been great.
Lost four installations at my house, and I have Microsoft certifications professionally so I’m fairly invested.
Likely to be another few as I move the rest of my immediate family over to Linux slowly also.
You’re on the ‘privacy’ community of an open source and federated alternative social media system designed to avoid corporate control and surveillance capitalism - and you’re like “wtf everyone here is very privacy focussed and Linux nerds”.
Do you complain about sand at the beach?
Its a large organization. There’s Al Jazeera, and then there’s its Al Jazeera English subdivision which operates with widely different team. The latter has a reputation for high quality journalism and has won multiple awards for it - the former exhibits more bias in its reporting.

I would say the BBC is no more trusted and should not be any more trusted than AJ English. Each have biases and each are capable of very high quality investigative journalism.
Mate, they’re meteorologists. Let them enjoy the tiny amount of excitement they have in their jobs.
This is in the opening handful of paragraphs of the article:
When a low-pressure system transforms from non-existence to a formidable storm just a day later, meteorologists label it a “bomb cyclone”, or a system that has experienced “bombogenesis”.
The expression “bomb” is due to the explosive speed of development, however, its usage is restricted only to systems where the reduction in pressure exceeds a specific rate based on latitude.
An artist chanting words on a stage at a show… Isn’t this that freeze peach those Republicans claim to support to their dying breath?
I don’t see how calling for the death of an institution that’s openly committing warcrimes and even admitting to them, is really that outlandish, especially for an artist during a performance.
Completely fair. When your neighbour is as untrustworthy and aggressively expansionist as the Russian government I would line the border with mines too.
I get your point, but i’d argue it’s still dumb to normalize and encourage 15-16 year olds. Their brain is still developing and a lot of kids that have cannabis experience significant issues later; higher chance of developing depression, poorer cognitive performance in memory and learning (even with extended abstaining). The more its studied the more issues seem to be found so… it’s really not worth it, just wait until you’re an adult with a fully-formed brain - you can’t make good decisions prior about taking stuff that will permanently affect your brain and body health. Same goes for alcohol.

I’m pretty sure vinegar strokes is old English slang, and that would seem to align with this British online definition of it predating the appearance on The League by 2 years.

P. S. I will now have a totally different understanding of the song “Turning Japanese” everytime I hear it
And it makes you healthier, and uses far less resources.
We consumed alllll the BPA when we were young and it was unregulated. Same with PFAs in non-stick pans and microwave popcorn bags. Probably dozens of other toxic things that are now regulated but when we were young were heavily used and consumed as we grew.
Aussies also eat a lot of sausages, pies and processed meats, which is now known to be a cancer causer - including bowel cancer. Now we’re getting to the age where damage from all the above starts to manifest as cancers.
The question is did we do all of those things at just a slightly higher rate which led to the higher rates the cancer scientists are seeing now and worrying about - because it’s not like they can go back in time and measure our environmental factors and inputs, they largely have to estimate.
