I'll freely admit that I am not an economist, nor is this exactly how commodity pricing works...but the thought experiment easily shows this is an exercise in futility. Prices might go down some for a couple months. Its midterm fuckery; disguise the problem with a short term "fix."

Current usa stockpiles of diesel are around 4.53bil gallons. If 4.8mil tons were dropped into our stocks that's 1.4bil additional gallons, or just about 1/3rd more added. If it were free, end to end, then prices would drop by about 25%. 7 dollars a gallon becomes $5.25. But it's not gonna be free.

They did this in tons to try and disguise that 4.8mil tons of diesel is just around 10 days of US consumption. We sold out Ukraine for a week and a half of diesel.

I don't think government, which should exist solely to protect and serve their citizens, should kill their own citizens. Someone kills their rapist, though, and I'm down for a jury acquittal.

Lmao. Honestly, not sure myself. I have spent my life mostly avoiding chairs. And I used to squat a lot, just kinda sitting on my ankles. THE DAY I turned 40 this right knee started popping. Stupidest ass trope of a 40th birthday gift my body gave me.

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

The Cornell campus policy had jane doe's statements where she clearly said she had been raped. She said it in plan English. They left it out of the brief they gave city pd. The city didn't review the full 120 page interview. As usual, the cops are complicit. Arrest the Cornell 7. Arrest campus pd.
A screen shot of a post from linmakron
Captioned pictures of the 7 with their names.
Post reads "someone told me I shouldn't help spread pictures of the Cornell 7 guys, because it might destroy their lives.
Sweetie, that's what I'm counting on."

Names are: Matthew Ingalls, Diego Sarabia, Winston Lee, Scott Norris, gillio lopes, Johnathan newell. The name of the 7th is covered by a pop up. It is Scott Kretzschmar.

A FlyDubai plane issued emergency signals while heading towards Tel Aviv and IDF jets were scrambled in response. The cause: the two FlyDubai pilots had a brawl.

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

I feel like there were always food recalls, but they were quiet little announcements...probably bc the recalls happened BEFORE there were massive outbreaks of disease. Like a few people might get sick, but not like we are seeing now. Now its recalls because lots of people are already sick.
