The only downside to a strike is not enough people striking.

Because they never pay. They just keep getting free passes.

Ah. So that is why they call it TV programming.

The thing people need to do is stop and spend more than 5 minutes trying to realize that the next will be much sooner than another 100 years.

Then realize that people did spend a hundred years getting ready it’s just that no one listened. The 1913 pandemic went scary similar to 2019.

Just put it next to all the other inflection points from the past 20 years.

This is actually really good. Amazing how much people could learn from reading fantasy and sci-fi. Shout out to Babylon 5. Never too late to watch that show folks.

The countries that get that ball rolling first will have a massive advantage. AI and humanoid robots have a massive push behind it right now.

There is a reason why Epstein and Maxwell haven’t talked. Guess what happens to Maxwell as soon as Republicans think she will talk?

She is also only willing to testify after her appeals are resolved — which could take months or even years.

She also will not speak to congressional investigators in the federal prison in Florida where she is currently incarcerated

It’s easy to get caught up in it. That’s why it’s been working for decades.

The answer is some politicians don’t. Talk about them. Don’t comment too much on noise. 97% of politics is distraction.

Someone explained it a while back. Politicians won’t legalize it nationwide because they know people will still vote for them. Which is exactly what has been happening for years.

If they legalize it their reelection chances go down.

That is why people can’t have nice things. It’s a popularity contest but not for the people. It’s for the politicians. 77 million Republican voters thought Trump in office again was a higher priority than low priced legal weed.

I think Google has stepped up efforts against Firefox. User agent switching has helped but if I’m in a hurry I use Vivaldi, Kiwi, or Chrome.

Sure thing little girl.

Nation wide workers strike? Is this a thing? Asking for a friend in USA? /s

Seems like it?

Seems like it worked just fine the last time Trump was President. Seems like millions of people forgot.

It’s ok for people to be stupid. It’s not ok for stupid people to be dangerous.

Wilful ignorance is dangerous. It’s not a difference of political opinion.

It’s because the scary Boogeyman has to be relevant. USA needed people to get onboard with current wars, not old wars.

There were also plenty of movies about the scary Russians too in that specific political time.

Remote areas and canyons are not the problem this solution addresses. Have you ever heard of tornado sirens or air raid sirens?

The bill would have funded improved disaster alert systems and provided grants for counties to build infrastructure like sirens and radio towers, according to the Texas Tribune.

many residents are believed to have not seen the warnings due to them being issued in the early morning hours, or lacked access to mobile devices altogether.

$50. I like where your head is at but that is not the type of sirens they are talking about. Also,

My phone works too

How about this. Create a program where people can sign up to buy an affordable siren. Install sirens. Texas reimburses those people a percentage. Maybe a tax credit. People hate paying taxes. Texas charges another percentage to all people in Texas.

Maybe it’s just me but if I had the option to install an affordable advanced warning siren I’d be interested. My phone works too but a siren has to be cheaper than a funeral for my family.
