Why would they care? The whole world is witnessing it and no one is doing anything to stop them.

The timing can be a surprise, but if you don't know the answer, don't ask the question.

If the BLM protests taught us anything, it was that if you don't cower before police authority, they'll kill you regardless of your skin color.

We should still do it. However, don't pretend cops won't kill white people. Just because they prefer to kill brown people it doesn't mean they're not willing to branch out.

This gave me a giggle. Thanks!

When a religion is good, I conceive it will support itself; and when it does not support itself, and God does not take care to support it so that its professors are obliged to call for help of the civil power, ‘tis a sign, I apprehend, of its being a bad one.

I would point out that the difference between the two votes is the number that matters.

It's actually a thing, but it would require a degree of unity the country isn't capable of.

I don't know the exact number, but I'm sure it's less than zero.

Yeah, you wouldn't want to get fired by Walmart. You'd have to go on welfa... oh.

I didn't see it happen, but I saw the aftermath. A small car was crushed between two large trucks in the left lane of the highway. When I drove by, the crushed car was completely unrecognizable as a car. Just a pile of compacted metal and plastic. You couldn't even tell what was the front or the back.

When I got to work, I checked the news to see what happened to the driver of the car.

No significant injuries, just some scratches. She laid down across the front seat and slid down under the dashboard and managed to find the one space that wasn't completely compacted.

This is probably a stupid question, but if I want to add a line to a PDF telling people to direct any comments to my Lemmy account, how would I specify that?

Obviously teenager is 13-19.

"Young adult" would start at 20, but where's the cutoff at the upper end? Similarly, what's the range for "adult", "old", "elderly", " ancient"?

If someone asks for responses from "old men", how do I know if it applies to me?

Title is my question. It seems like refusing to recognize other state's driver licenses would be blatantly unconstitutional. Is there something I'm missing?

This morning I was driving to my son to swap vehicles when I encountered road work on Moyamensing.

Blocking the only road that leads to his apartment.

When I got back to my office, I had to check Google maps to make sure I didn't miss anything.
