More Tennessee voters report voting machine showing wrong name selected
I have two questions about this:
Why do Americans use these machines? Just turn up at the polling station, confirm your name and address, get handed your ballot paper, mark it with an X, drop it in the box. Bish bash bosh.
What the fuck is with that weird "news reporter voice" they always do on American news!? Just speak normally.

A Crazy Scandal with a Competent Press, Maybe
I don't really think it's the press's fault. I think America simply doesn't give a shit anymore. They seem to be completely inured to the crime, corruption, fascism, blatant lies, performative cruelty, election interference, embarrassment on the global stage, etc.
It's very peculiar.

Prairieland ‘Antifa’ Activists Sentenced to Decades in Prison on ‘Terrorism’ Charges
Savanna Batten and Elizabeth Soto, two area activists, were not alleged to have belonged to discussion groups where the demonstration was planned. In Batten’s case, prosecutors relied on her black garb as a means to tie her to the conspiracy; in Soto’s, prosecutors argued that her black clothing and her operation of a small printing press that produced anarchist “zines” tied her to the conspiracy. Both received sentences of 50 years on Tuesday.
Fascism.

I'm pretty sure you're not allowed to call it cheese in the US either. It gets labelled as "cheese product".

Only a few countries have grown entirely based on immigration, Australia, New Zealand, and America among them.
I know what you mean by this, but just a fun fact I want to crowbar in:
Humans settled in Australia around 50-60,000 years ago, North America around 20,000 years ago, but when the East-Polynesians (who would become the Māori) settled in New Zealand, Oxford University was already 200 years old.
