It does make sense that they are bragging about converting their Moms into supporting totalitarian authoritarian regimes. After all, Mom is the only one visiting them in the basement.

Our armed forces has difficulty recruiting people who WANT to join, let alone recruiting people who don't want to join a war.

I don't know what's covered under US "healthcare", and I think it also depends on your age. Probably should talk to your doctor and ask them. Maybe a bunch of blood tests, dental work, cancer screenings, prostate check, colonoscopy, and upper endoscopy.

Yes, Conservatives will be worse. After they are in government for 10 years and things are much worse, we'll vote the Liberals back in, who will also make things worse. Rinse and repeat until we die.

I have wonder if this is applicable to mosquitos as well. If so, time to buy some yellow clothing.

You forgot to mention the philosophical archetypal substrate.

He'll do whatever he can to maximize clicks on his videos, just like the rest. I don't find him particularly insightful. I can tell he is passionate about nature, or at least getting money for making nature videos. But, he is sometimes disrespectful and disruptive of wildlife in pursuit of his video ambitions.

Saturn's rings regularly "disappear". Even Galileo noticed, although he had no idea what was happening.

In 1612 the Earth passed through the plane of the rings and they became invisible. Mystified, Galileo remarked "I do not know what to say in a case so surprising, so unlooked for and so novel." He mused, "Has Saturn swallowed his children?" — referring to the myth of the Titan Saturn devouring his offspring to forestall the prophecy of them overthrowing him. He was further confused when the rings again became visible in 1613. (From Wikipedia).

It is difficult to hear how much is spent and how much regular people still struggle. I have little hope.

 

FYI, Metro "reported a first-quarter profit of $228.5 million".

 

Everything is turning into disgusting subscription services. Most recently I saw home printers that required a monthly subscription service in order to print.

So, how long before Windows is a subscription? They have already brought ads into Windows.

Yes, I think I'll sign up for the...hm, the "Casual Gamer" tier, which allows 2 hours per week of gaming. Although I could always watch an ad to unlock 30 more minutes.
