The Marshall Service is the enforcement arm. The question is, would they refuse to do their duty?

Okay, so he revoked the collective bargaining rights. He didn’t revoke the ability to go out on strike, though. It just won’t be an organized strike.

Weren’t strikes the compromise to the other option, namely dragging the owners out of the factory and beating them in the streets? Maybe they just want to go back to the original system.

I’m glad judges are familiar with the Second Amendment.

This is like sovereign citizens saying they don’t consent to being arrested. Did anybody hear us asking for permission?

Considering trump’s habit of tearing up agreements even he made, what is to stop Zelensky from doing so once russia is out?

Bet they didn’t get rid of the Christians-only club.

Considering trump’s efforts to put political officers in charge of all official communications, any such “news” must be considered suspect.

Isn’t it cute when your little one puts on his pouty face, stomps his foot, and says, “No more broccoli”?

Should have kept them in a secure location - like a museum.

For many southerners, bigotry against non-whites is part of their identity. Are they saying the KKK should be a protected class? How can making a religion out of the belief that you deserve a particular piece of real estate be a protected class?

Zionism is an ethno-cultural nationalist movement that emerged in Europe in the late 19th century and aimed for the establishment of a Jewish state through the colonization of a land outside of Europe.

In other words, taking somebody else’s land.

It eventually focused on the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine, a region corresponding to the Land of Israel in Judaism, and of central importance in Jewish history.

Specifically, Palestinian’s land.

Following the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, Zionism became the ideology supporting the protection and development of Israel as a Jewish state and has been described as Israel’s national or state ideology.

State religion. That never turns out bad, does it? /s

How careless do you have to be to just have ammo lying around, unknown to you? Here’s a thought, T&C says they’ll release them if they lose their right to own a gun in the US?

Stupid doesn’t just run in that family, it gallops.

Do you suppose they would take offense to distributing copies of “Demon Haunted World” in Kuwait?

Us DOD has drawn up plans for what to do in the next probable wars based upon various causes. One of those causes is lack of water.

The Gulf Stream, which currently keeps Europe warmer than it should be, could be disrupted by sudden dumping of cold fresh water from Greenland. As I understand it, the fresh water is lighter than salt water and will essentially disrupt the Gulf Stream. Previously, It was believed that if the Gulf Stream were disrupted, Europe would plunge back into the temperatures that you see at the same latitudes in North America. The equivalent latitude for Belgium would be Winnipeg, which has exceptionally cold winters.

Now, you would think perhaps this would then balance out. The problem is that the Gulf Stream dissipates heat from the equator into the northern latitudes. Heat is what drives hurricanes. With nothing dissipating heat from the equator, you have an enormous, essentially battery, to power more frequent and larger hurricanes. Now before you start saying goodbye to Florida, consider that hurricanes ride along on the Gulf Stream. With it disrupted, where are those hurricanes going to go?

This is why weather modeling is so difficult. There are way too many variables to have to account for. Go ahead, try to make a prediction for more than two-three weeks.

Interesting contrast between stories. This story says:

Connecticut (10) & Hawaii (5).

Whereas this story says worst economies. https://www.cnbc.com/2023/07/13/these-are-the-10-states-with-americas-worst-economies.html

Hawaii (10) & Connecticut (8).

What’s even better, is that they were written by the same person.

I’m pretty sure that would not be in Meta’s best interest, from their point of view. After all, Meta is all about harvesting your personal data. I believe whether to federate or not will come down to how egregious the federation terms are that Meta will propose because you know they will want to access user data in some fashion for their own profit. If they want the same kind of data from the Fediverse as they get from their native app, the answer will be a resounding “no”. If they ask for even 20% of that data, the answer will remain the same.

The rule in 196 is that once you’ve visited, you must post before leaving. Thus, the title suffix “rule”.
