Glass is just borderline

It als depends on the distance and transportation costs to get to a glass plant.

Which is dissapointing, because glass should be relatively easy to recycle into new containers. The core process isn’t much different than making new glass.

The first 2 on the legend look darker than the following 3 .

I agree with the zombiepirate. Colour coded maps are useless for about 25% of the population.

Ummm… that was a separate thing, and he made the announcement before Trump’s statement.

And it’s Prime Minister, not premier.

most of my friends from Ukraine wanted the war to end from the very beginning.

Nobody in Ukraine wanted this war to happen at all, but Russia went ahead and invaded them anyway, so they didn’t have any real choice in the matter.

There is a chance that Trump will inadvertently weaken the US long term

He already did that the first time.

This time he’ll double (or triple) down on that.

The End of American Exceptionalism

But not the end of them claiming it regardless of the reality.

Then again, their claims of being the bestest ever at everything have been false for a very long time already.

2 Trump administrations, 2 pandemics…

You don’t fix things by picking the worse option on purpose.

That’s exactly what the electorate just did.

That’s utter lunacy.

I fully agree

goons to wield guns

Such as Hegseth?

That seems to be all he was when he was enlisted.

I mean there’s a 99% chance Pierre wins.

Sadly true.

Hopefully we can at least hold him to a minority.

Given how allergic the conservatives seem to be (since at least Harper’s days) about working cooperatively with any other party, a minority parliament ought to be able to minimize the damage. I hope.

it is easy to see why people might be feeling disenfranchised and might just not vote

And now they get to see the results of their letting perfect get in the way of good.

If you don’t think Trump will actively accelerate that you’re deluding yourself.

In the reality of the current election, the only 2 options available are the lesser evil or the greater and more chaotic evil.

people who won’t vote for genocide,

Would you prefer to vote for the candidate who has been calling for a cease fire, or the one that has bent over for Netanyahu in the past and fully plans to do it again?

Because those are the only 2 options available.

However the American presidential election and the consequences of it’s outcome certainly is in large part about Donald fucking Trump.

Imagine being a “party official” for the very party that would “crack down” on you for your reading list.

Anyone parroting those tired talking points who thinks Trump would be less of a problem for Gaza or the Palestinians needs to get their head examined.

Trump has already demonstrated that he’s Netanyahu’s bitch.

Black Friday, the shopping day is a gimmick

And one that’s been exported to other countries who don’t even have the same national holiday adjacent to that friday giving people the excuse to shop more on that particular day.

Here it’s nothing but a cynical corporate cash grab.

how do I know someone hasn’t placed a bomb inside

You learn enough about electronics to identify things that shouldn’t be in there, and then you open up and analyze your devices.

Alternatively, you could not become involved with an organization that is at war with a powerful country who has a capable spy/espionage agency.

I was about to say something similar.

I suspect that people in their target market not being made aware of it is part of the problem that is leading them to shut down.
