This feels reminiscent of the show Foundation. Perhaps they took inspiration from this piece

maybe it has taken this long for them to arrive?

such a difficult thing to speak to as governor. A (righteous) uprising akin to what happened after the murder of George Floyd would almost certainly see the insurrection act declared. And such an uprising would be confusing geographically because it would be contra Washington DC but destructive to the Twin Cities which is a progressive place by and large

For US citizens, are you totally disillusioned from contacting your representatives? this action was drilled into me from an early age as an effective approach but not sure what sentiments are in the US.

This is obviously many levels less important than organised worker resistance etc.

yeah agreed across the board there.

fwiw new information here re: vice president demanding proof of life

Interesting to see Spain’s response which acknowledges their position against Maduro whilst condemning the attack

i’m surprised to see yall so convinced of the opposite but i understand if you just not wanting to sensationalise without data. is the US military really so infinitely far ahead that snatching a head of state is a guaranteed operation?

i suppose i haven’t see any independent verification that they have maduro at all so could be a bluff

that’s a major hit to their ability to fight back right? Even if he wasn’t collaborating losing a monolithic leader like would be a massive blow their ability to effectively resist.

that’s a major hit to their ability to fight back right? Losing a monolithic leader like would be a massive blow their ability to effectively resist. I have to imagine that’s why they did it but would be interested to hear different takes

very excited for this. optimistic that it will drop in 2026

interesting take. I don’t remember much of the detail but I do remember it helping me to take big next steps more confidently when I read it at 16.

alright i’ll target 6 years then! did you consider having a leather patch stitched on the outside? just thinking that adding a soft insole wouldn’t give much added wear resistance / longevity

im on my second year of wearing glerups every day while at home. still love putting them on. I strongly recommend the leather outsoles

for anyone seeing this link for the first time

it’s an incredibly streamlined UX that composes an email to the representatives relevant to you, for the specific reasons important to you. It’s then really easy to paste both the email body and the string of email addresses into whatever email client you use.

10/10 recommend

great catch. could be logarithmic? in any case it’s definitely making the gap appear much larger

in the exact same situation, thanks for asking the question.

Based on the replies i plan to stay with OM in the absence of compelling reasons to migrate

the song The Freezer Aisle from Joe Pera Talks With You is an unlikely ethereal banger

this is everything i want. I wish there more places that had this view on ‘fine dining’. I want fresh, in-season fruits and vegetables!

The language barrier is a difficult one to overcome. Not ideal for all of leadership to operate in Lithuanian and then have to distribute documentation or directions in French/English.

That said I don’t think it’s unreasonable to build some functional fluency over the course of a 5 year degree, especially if the government builds in the resourcing and expectation.

fyi this is from 11 Sept
