Log Cabin Republicans announce they no longer support trans rights - LGBTQ Nation
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Association_of_German_National_Jews
The Association of German National Jews (German: Verband nationaldeutscher Juden, VnJ) was an assimilationist and nationalist German Jewish organization which was formed during the early years of the rule of the Weimar Republic and during the early years of the rule of Nazi Germany, that eventually came out in support of Adolf Hitler.
[...]
Despite the extreme nationalism of Naumann and his colleagues, the Nazi regime did not accept the Association of German National Jews as a legitimate intermediary. Following the passage of the Nuremberg Laws, the VnJ was declared illegal and dissolved on 18 November 1935. Naumann was arrested by the Gestapo the same day, and imprisoned at the Columbia concentration camp. He was released after a few weeks, and died of cancer in May 1939.[1] Most other members and their families were murdered in the Holocaust.[17]

Everyone is aware there are steps they can take to get free of whatever substance they are dependent on. If it were as simple as that, addiction wouldn't be the scourge that it is.

Lethbridge News Now is a local paper out of, obviously, Lethbridge. Like, actually local, not Postmedia "local". It's a fine source.

If failing to meet expectations doesn't come with consequences then there were never really any expectations.

It's a lot more annoying watching Liberals continue to support him as he gives conservatives their heart's desire.

I'm sorry, but this is silly. This is an issue because American liquor companies are taking a financial hit and they are making it an issue. If the finances don't recover, they are not going to stop making it an issue, whatever tricks we might manage that technically satisfies a deal. We are dealing with gangsters. The best move is not to concede.

An argument so stupid that the financial situation of the judges who made it should definitely be looked into.

That works for the one kei truck but there are other pictures of vehicles that don't seem to have any obvious exit.

Really, incredibly sick of the federal government not even managing to have as much backbone as I, some random citizen.

Ex-Obama Aide Says Holocaust Education Is ‘Confusing’ Young People Into Sympathizing With ‘Weak, Skinny’ Palestinians
“Oh I know, the lesson of the Holocaust is you fight Israel. You fight the big powerful people hurting the weak people.”
Yes, that's the lesson of the Holocaust. If in your mind the lesson of the Holocaust is that Israel gets one free genocide, you are fucking psychotic.

The UN is a diplomatic structure that exists to give state's representatives a place to gather and talk. It's not a world government. If it had been created with the intention of being one, no one would have signed on.

Michigan residents sue AI data center emitting noise 24/7 — company fined for industrial noise ordinance violations, offers to buy homes from residents
The company said that it’s planning to expand its operations in the footprint in the area
Residents say it sounds like a vacuum cleaner in their living room, and the company has offered to buy up homes from unhappy residents.
Very convenient for them that they converted their data centre into a property value destroyer before making this offer. I'm sure that's coincidental.
