So only Alabama actually observes it. It’s the only one that closes state offices. Mississippi combines it with Memorial Day so technically there is a day off and they are diluting Memorial Day. I’m a Floridian and have never heard of his birthday being observed or mentioned. In contrast I actually get Juneteenth off.

Bullshit. Mark it eight.

They want to lower the age from 20 to 18 to begin training. It seems reasonable to me.

She was training the dog to hunt pheasants. The dog attacked chickens (pheasants)… And bit her while she was trying to stop it. There was 0 need to kill that dog.

Probably because of the Soviets. Dividing up Germany was not without risk. Soviet tanks and American tanks were parked across the boarders from each other with rounds ready to fire.

It’s a yardonome you ignorant swine.

The Soviets did not send soldiers to battle without weapons. That is a myth. They fought like hell in WW2 and finishing that is stupid.

Where is it bent?

Nothing good that’s for sure. But I wonder what this map is actually from.

Are tech illiterate people intentionally using 3rd party software to change their default browser? Genuinely asking because I have always manually set my default on a new device.

The person you are responding to is not arguing in good faith. I was going to say don’t feed the troll but maybe it’s better to refute the BS so unsuspecting people don’t read them thinking they are correct.

He looks British to me. He is using a Bren gun and you can see the start of visor(?) that British helmets have but it’s obscured by his pack.

To be fair the first time they mention “safety impacts” the words “safety impacts” is actually a link to a study on the subject. It would be better to include a brief summation since no one is going to pause reading an article in the first paragraph to read a study.

I think you are misreading the article or article summary. It is the states where LGBTQ rights are being restricted that have more hate crimes.

It’s just a humor article. Not sure if you read past the headline but the whole article is about the positives of an e-bike. If anything maybe someone who by default is opposed to or on the fence about e-bikes might click on the article to get some negative takes and they find only positive ones,

I’ll never understand trying juveniles as adults. Then what is the point of even having juvenile courts? There is a 13 year oldkid in Florida who killed his mother and is being tried as an adult. I understand it was a terrible crime but treating a middle school kid with the brain/reasoning ability of a 13 year old child as an adult is wrong.

The US Congress is legislative branch. Congress is divided into the Senate and House of Representatives.

What makes it confusing is that representatives are also referred to as “congressman” but senators are onky called senators. Despite both being members of Congress.

Standard Sith vs Jedi violence.

I find that people generally use “this” and “next” correctly but it depends how the week is being perceived. I think it might depend what day of the week it currently is. Like if it’s Sunday, someone might say “next Saturday” to mean the first coming Saturday. But if someone says “next Saturday” on a Thursday they definitely mean the second coming Saturday.
