So is this the voice of the unheard or isn't it?

It would have been more fruitful for everyone in this discussion to have just masturbated.
A discussion that isn't.

We have Klaus, the family cat, but we also have Mouse, who is Klaus' cat. This is Mouse.

My wife and I attended a baby shower with my side of the family. Dozens of pictures were taken, and this was the only good one.
Me, my wife, and our still-nameless chihuahua.

Wife + dog reveal. Go easy on her, she's very pregnant at the moment.
My wife, Koko. Also pictured is her chihuahua, who has no name.

Clear difference here between a statesman (Xi) and a politician (any elected member of FedGov). Ultimately, this is because Xi's power is real, not just ceremonial.

I don't really care about whatever this cartoon is griping about, but I think it's really funny that one of these hooded figures is Clarence Thomas, who is blacker than the ace of spades.

In which people FAR wealthier and better connected than I am make a case for petty theft - an antisocial nuisance for which none of them would ever face accountability (though I certainly would).

I mean, this seems pretty significant.

Are people being unreasonable when they see this and don't want to replicate it in their own communities?

My pet theory, which I could easily verify if I wasn't lazy, is that "Deseret" is an Anglicization of the Egyptian "deshret" (meaning "the red land"). A lot of Utah desert is an oxide orange color, so it kinda checks out. Map barely related. I live in one of the dark red counties.

"I laid over 100,000 cubic yards of stone a year for thirty years to build monuments people visit 4,000 years later. Currency had not been developed. Horses had not been domesticated." "I was given $126,000,000,000 and twenty years, and I built nothing."

I think this constitutes a justified use of force, personally.

This idiotic adventure will be advertised as another grand chapter in the chronicle of American Invincibility, and I will laugh and laugh and laugh.

This little detail is part of why I'm agnostic on the "daring rescue" story.

Wife and I are prototyping the bottle rocket launcher I built. Should be a good way to teach my son elementary physics without having to do much book-learning.

There's no small irony in the fact that (arguably) the most competent 21st century government is the hand-me-down regime from Mao Zedong. Granted, the current CCP is operated by people he victimized, so it's a bit of a skinsuit situation at the moment.

Scott Alexander also has a mass of work on the same topic. From the article here, this excerpt is the key. No other demographic's decline would be treated this way, and the solutions would not be regarded as a fascinating and complex mystery.
