It’s the Epstein Ballroom.
Just use meters and round up to 300 million m/s for the speed of light.


Congress approved military strikes in the entire middle east region under Bush. Even if the strikes weren’t in active war zones, they were approved uses of military force. Trump has no such authority for his strikes on boats in the Pacific and Caribbean.
I agree that the authorizations granted under Bush were bullshit and tantamount to war crimes, but the actions of the president is starkly different.

That’s not just killing people, it’s part of the job of being president: executing the will of the republic. What Trump is doing is very different.


VLC definitely has evangelists, they have just become the dominant culture so you don’t really notice it. They don’t have an advertising budget, it got popular through word of mouth.

They pay billions more in taxes than they receive in aid, and you’re salty because they have the nerve to ask for help when wildfires threaten people’s homes and safety?
Get bent.


I feel like they’re worse some places than others.
El Salvador is literally running a death camp, they don’t plan to ever release the prisoners. They just keep them alive for free labor and to avoid the stigma of running a Holocaust; but Germany was the same at first, they only ramped up the death at the end of the war.
