Sporting events are too expensive

I can also see some benefit to having fewer drunk people in a stadium, but I'm sure it's mostly just profit chasing.

US has just 41 days of crude oil inventory left, the lowest level in half a century
I'm pretty sure that's 41 days with no further input or production, not 41 days from now we won't have reserves anymore.

What's your point? That prices are going up? That's kind of obvious.
You asked where the oil was going to come from, and the answer is that there are a lot of places that you can still get oil, even if it's more expensive than before.

About 13 million barrels per day could probably be coming from the US itself, and I'm sure there are still plenty of other places willing to sell oil.

Gloves Come Off In Dem Senate Primary Debate: ‘You Threw Those Trans Kids Under the Political Bus’
Reply in thread
From a different debate:
“What you are doing right now is absolutely reprehensible,” Markey responded, seemingly stunned by the question.
Two days later, Markey’s campaign told GBH News that it checked the calendars of the senator and his staff at the time, and that no such meeting occurred.
Seth Moulton seems like a gross person. I really hope he doesn't get elected for Senator.

But what if they tied for 5th place? I think that might be a pretty big deal, actually.

I stopped eating junk food several years ago. I just learned pizza tacos exist. Somebody tell me they aren't as good as they look, please.

It looks like soft shells in the photo, and I'd generally agree that they're better than hard shells.

Fallout New Vegas
You had me worried. Surely Fallout New Vegas isn't a 20 year old game? But no, it only came out 16 years ago. Crisis averted.

Maybe they didn't want to embarass themself by spelling it wrong? That's the only explanation I can think of.

The Cooperative Congressional Election Study (CCES), an election survey of about 50,000 people, found that 12% of Sanders voters voted for Trump in 2016.^[https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/monkey-cage/wp/2017/08/24/did-enough-bernie-sanders-supporters-vote-for-trump-to-cost-clinton-the-election/] In the states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, the number of Sanders–Trump voters was more than two times Trump's margin of victory in those states.^[https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2020-election/sanders-voters-helped-trump-win-white-house-could-they-do-n1145306]

Why wouldn't it happen? There are millions of people in the US, and a lot of them aren't very smart.

Harry Potter fans force relocation of £430m undersea cable to avoid Dobby’s ‘grave’
Reply in thread
You only have to lay a cable down once and it'll work for however many decades. People trudging through on a regular basis to leave rocks would be an ongoing concern.

2 months for joking about Pooh Bear in .ml's memes
Reply in thread
You got me curious about the origins of this. I'm pretty sure this image of Pooh and Tigger was made after the photo was taken, but it does seem to illustrate the point pretty well.

The investigation is ongoing, but I want to make it crystal clear right now to whoever did this. We will find you. We will try you and we will hold you accountable to the furthest extent of the law. And I just want to remind people that we still have the death penalty here in the state of Utah.
We can return violence with violence, we can return hate with hate. And that's the problem with political violence, is it metastasizes. Because we can always point the finger at the other side. And at some point, we have to find an off ramp, or it's going to get much much worse.
Incredible the difference a day can make.

Wow. But surely someone did, right? I mean, you can already find articles about them censoring democrats, so someone somewhere must have written an article about how the poor republicans were being censored, right?

Reply in thread
The Volusia County Sheriff’s Office says a 2-year-old girl was hit by a car after running into a traffic lane on the beach about 4:30 p.m. Saturday in New Smyrna Beach, Florida.
How is there a traffic lane on the beach? Who did this? How does this happen?

What is a story were the main villain actually turned out to be the good guy?
Reply in thread
Even the first season had Amon, the guy that wanted equality between benders and non-benders. At one point we're even shown that power was cut to a predominantly non-bender neighborhood, and when people went outside to protest to get their power turned back on, they were all rounded up and arrested. Afterwards, when Korra goes and tries to get the people that were arrested set free, she's told
All equalist suspects are being detained indefinitely. They'll be freed if and when the task force deems them no longer a threat.
Just in case it wasn't clear enough by that point that non-benders were treated as second class citizens.
