Creating a bomb leaves a trail and the FBI has a pretty good record domestically of finding where they've come from. Couple that with the fact that any time there's a threat detected then will places evacuate. Anyone who would actually call in a threat, after placing bombs would only result in becoming hunted by the FBI, so on that point you're right: these threats are always hollow. At least until people stop evacuating after receiving a threat. Once that happens it will increase the likelihood that real bombs will start being placed.

But to be clear, a lot of places do get bombed. In 2023 there were 320 bombings in the US. During the same year there were 3,203 threats. So, we're looking at 0.1% ... That would likely go up if people stopped taking the threats seriously.

Increasingly more often Amazon is the publisher.

Everyone is all impressed with the cryo part, and I'm more shocked that a sliced up brain can still function.

Imagine living some place where you have to pay Musk for your air and water.

Honestly, the lyrics are good, but pairing them with the video is powerful.

But if your comments are more about steering the conversation towards you and how you don't like an artist rather than the message they are trying to spread, then just ignore my comment because it's irrelevant.

Musk isn't compromised by Putin, there is nothing that Putin could have on him that would make any bit of difference. What Musk wants is to be the preferred rocket supplier for both the US and Russia. He already has the US, now he's doing Putin's bidding and will soon be building Starship launch pads in Crimea.

Wait, Vance was criticizing Europe over censorship?!

Can someone remind me which words and phrases the Biden administration blocked from government websites and government funded scientific publications?

I don't think Apple (and other companies) has returned because they want to advertise there, I think all major tech companies have been notified of what they must do to 'kiss the ring'. This is like Disney removing the context warnings before some of their older movies. There's no way that the Disney company decided all of a sudden to remove them without external pressure from the government. These companies know that they can't fight this administration because they own all 3 branches of the government. The days when Microsoft could outspend the government in court is done, because now the president can just write an executive order. Congress doesn't even need to pass laws, but if one is needed you know they'll do whatever the administration says. And sure, companies can sue, but somehow they'll always end up with a trump-friendly judge.

Anyway, all that to say that I do believe that corporations are evil and suck, but I don't think this was actually a marketing decision.

Correct, these are American cars, which American companies decided to move production to Canada for cost savings. And now, because those American companies made a decision, our moron in chief claims that Canada stole those jobs.

More smoke and mirrors while he and his goons continue to destroy the country and steal everything of value.

Worst flu season in years... one month after return to office mandates. Weird.

Or else, what?

To paraphrase Andrew Jackson, the judge made his ruling, now let him enforce it. We've lost our country.
