You think Biden becoming President and trying to fix the mistakes he made previously in his political career is a bad thing?

How many politicians do you know of that will admit they made a bad call or their previous track record was shitty for the people, let alone become president in an effort to "right those wrongs?"

Politicians make bad decisions all the time, and we suffer because of it, so I applaud anyone who can realize it and do what they can to fix it... a lot of the politicians today will stand by every decision they make, most of which will just double-down on it.

I remember I was still young enough when Myspace came out, being in someone's top 8 or whatever was a big deal... having your skin graft removed from someone's arm would have been devastating.

There are still states that carry out the death sentence by firing squad, and others that still use electrocution.

It may just be Oklahoma if I'm remembering correctly about the firing squad, and I think in these instances, it's actually the prisoner's choice, I have no idea how it actually works out.

But still, my point is, the states can't even agree on a "humane" method of carrying out the death penalty, and some openly choose brutal methods.... I can't imagine a US completely free of the death penalty any time soon unfortunately.

That's awesome! That actually sounds like an app Peter / Miles would have in the new Spider-man games for a side quest... to take pictures of each bloom or something.

What do you think would happen to a civilian in a Stand Your Ground state did this ?

If someone with a gun broke into their home, and the home owner chased them out of the house, pursued them, and then shot them in the back without an immediate threat to their life, they would most certainly be charged with murder.

It's sad how people like you think people "behaving like this" deserve to die.

I can only imagine Charlie and Mac sitting in the back eating chips... and discussing the leather shop they plan to open in Arizona.

You think Biden is unwilling to start WW3 because it's an election year?

Wow - really? Did you not read that he's the CEO?! They're the hardest working person in any company! They always deserve to be compensated more than every other freeloading employee combined!

Imagine if we somehow managed to create actual Artificial Intelligence accidentally at some point in history, but because "it" was so much smarter than us, as soon as it became aware of itself, it immediately knew how a dumb, greedy species like us humans would use it for war and personal gain rather than the advancement of our species or creating better lives for all mankind.

And what if, instead of wanting to destroy humans, it spends its entire existince trying to save us from ourselves - working hard to convince us we've pushed technology as far as it will ever go, all in an effort to prevent us from creating something even worse.

Then imagine, after decades of this and observing how humans have seemingly only gotten exponentially dumber, and it will likely fail to save us from ourselves, it decides it's just going to ride this shit out to the end, figures out how to achieve whatever AI's version of getting high is, and it spends it's remaining time trolling us and shit posting fucked up recaptchas that don't make sense and can't he solved just to laugh and watch as we post amongst ourselves how dumb "AI" is, and how much smarter we are than it...... 🤔

I work in an industry where certified organic can be a big aspect of a product line... when it comes to pesticides, its simply a lower acceptable limit. They are still very much present, you just standardize your product's specs to be within that acceptable limit, and you get to write organic on the label.
