So why weren't you and Schumer manning machine gun nests in front of the Capitol building that day?

You failed to defend your separate-but-co-equal branch of government.

Missouri Rep. Eric Burlison (R) tries to scam MAGA with deceptively edited UFO video.

The blur/bloom was an effect added in editing, it blurs even the ā€œPause (Ctrl+P)ā€ video player UI (bottom center).

Amateurs. 🤣

Why am I so unimpressed by these strikes? Israel and the US have failed to target significant elements of Iran's nuclear materials and production infrastructure. RISING LION and MIDNIGHT HAMMER are tactically brilliant, but may turn out to be strategic failures. 🧵 1/17

What do you think 'arrest' means?

I don't believe in 'censorship', but I don't believe in platforming a killer's manifesto either.

Except that it's not actually particularly uncommon for pathogens to escape a lab. It is a semi-regular occurrence.

Like Earth, half the Moon is always* lit by the Sun (its daytime), half in the dark like (its night).

But the Moon orbits Earth ~12 times faster than Earth does the Sun, so we see its day side (full Moon), its night side (new Moon), and all the angles inbetween over a ~30 day cycle.

I'm pretty sure my dog actually did go to live on a farm, because within a year we got word he'd been killed by a tractor.
