Never seen this black mould on the INSIDE of an egg before. Is it uncommon, does it have a name, and should I expect to die soon after eating the fried contents?

1973 OPEC oil embargo quadrupled oil prices & triggered stagflation. It was caused by USA support of Israel during Yom Kippur war An intelligent country would have recognized dependence on oil & unconditional support of Israel were national security issues And here we are today in the same boat

That's what he wants. He's lost his bottle and wants out of the game. This way he can blame the voters and move to the Cayman Islands, Oh boy he's going to need that 5 million, not that it will go that far when he's paid off the staff.

People who are concerned about the good of humanity are always kissing up THIS HARD to fascists like Trump, right? Right??? (Also, Bernie bros, please get your guy.)
Tweet by Max Tegmark with text "If @realDonaldTrump & Xi can pull off a deal that keeps humans in charge of machines for the long haul, it deserves a Nobel Peace Price" 

This is a quote tweet of Sen Sanders who is apparently tweeting a screencap of his own tweet that starts:

"When I convened leading American and Chinese scientists at the U.S. Capitol, they warned that the world is woefully unprepared for the threats posed by the rapid and uncontrolled development of artificial intelligence."

Simple amendments that IMO would have a decent chance of getting ratified:
-Mandatory secret ballot for impeachment trials and lower threshold for conviction
-Banning pardons on members of the president's own family or anyone he has had a business or working relationship with
-no presidential signature required for laws that delegate power to or take back power from the president

All it means is the relative price of gold has soared. Much more important was the fact of the OPEC oil price hike in 1973 - that put Western economies into a spin and allowed reactionary governments from 1978 on to break unions and create finance friendly economies which left low earners behind.
