Nothing wrong with wanting to hear another side, even if it may be an idiotic side (dont know till i hear it i guess)...
I guess what im saying in is in this case its such a difficult thing to defend and actually sound believable I suspect they just decided the easier thing to do was not to talk about it at all.
@raymondpert That sounds like a rather strange condition for bail... that you cant talk about conspiracy theories... I need to read more into the exact conditions but that sounds suspect...
@realcaseyrollins It makes republicans look bad.. of course they dont cover it... that would be like MSNBC covering a news story about a citizen saving a life with a gun... they just dont air that shit.
Interesting fact of the day: There is absolutely no legal check on a presidents ability to launch a nuclear missile.
That means for 4 years trump literally could have launched one at any moment on a whim and there was absolutely nothing stopping him other than his own choice not to do so.
Honestly as scary as that sounds, and just as scary that Biden, a senile old coot, has the same access... it amazes me neither of these guys did just for the fuck of it. I guess thank god they have some sense of self preservation cause neither of these twits are holding back for our sake....
Ahhh ok, yea I saw that one. Thought we were talking about something new.
Just think its important we be factual when we talk about this stuff, or else someone might be misinformed and thought he literally and explicitly made a call for violence.
What is more telling is the fact that when I thought you meant a direct threat I didnt doubt that Trump was capable.
Not that he would know it, or where he is, lol... but hey, as you point out, thats still better than being on bail :)
@skobkin If you have any trouble finding someone in the next day let me know, I will reach out to some of my closer contacts I garunteed and see if they are willing.
@freemo
If someone has a spare vote for us (lor.sh) and believe that we're worthy of it, we'll be grateful 🙂
@skobkin Thats fair, and considerate... I dont usually worry about it cause people can mute the convo if they want.
Since you untagged everyone no one will see it.
Also keep in mind garuntees only are an indication an instance is not mostly spam/fake accounts. Endorsements are more praise worthy.... So ideally it should be a light barrier to entry to get a garuntee.
Of course people need to be tagged to hear your ask :)
@skobkin I'd be more than happy to endorse your instance.. but i used up all my garuntees. So i either need to drop someone or we need to get you garunteed so I can endorse you
@breadandcircuses Interesting fact, the flowers pictured here are the only native flowering plant on the continent.
Not in philly, though we are probably well outside the avg. In philly there are few if any bike lanes. When they exist they arent guarded. And the drivers are more than happy to kill you for sport :)
@petergleick From what I've been hearing this is a huge problem and they did this with hundreds of thousands of books right?
As I understand the legality is still not certain though... it sounds like this is an open question the courts are still resolving.
Either way, hope you get justice!
> I did this for transportation - to try and convince my wife that driving a car was not, in fact, safer than biking. I don't remember the absolute numbers, but biking and walking were the lowest risk of death or serious injury per mile traveled for personal transportation, and nearly the same (the Williamsburg colonists were onto some with their walking helmets).
I would suspect this is highly variable based ont he location.. Biking in the city is far more dangerous than through the woods or in the suburbs I suspect.
Moreover it would vary greatly from city to city. Cities with guarded bike lanes would probably be quite safe whereas cities that require cars to occupy the same space as bikes are likely very dangerous.
That list is kinda suspect considering it is maintained in part by someone from Scholar.social, an instant notorious for abusing its own LGBTQ members (while trying to pretend it is an ally)..
The admin has also been called out for calls to violence and doxing in the past which.. it was quite ugly, took days before they finally back peddled
