The WNBA was a punchline until less than 5 years ago, and it's not really the quality of play that changed. 2) Pretty much. Bitches can't even play baseball, yo. And Dynamite is nitroglycerin stabilized with clay. Nitroglycerin is one of the most unstable compounds ever created by man. You can thank the Minnesota Lynx dynasty for that!

I prefer the (more optimistic) narrative that Nobel himself was horrified, of what he unleashed. Afterall dynamite also had civil use (aside from the obvious military one). I am thinking of mining and tunnel constructions, if I am not mistaken, the explosive they used before were far more volatile and dangerous to handle. I put Alfred Noble is in the category of Andrew Carnegie and John D. Rockefeller at other men of his time. There was a lot of wealth made and in the time of very little social safety and felt a need to act. I personally am more mix on their motivation, and my statement was more snark then cynicism.

Martell Spy Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Trump’s Racist Immigration Policy Is Backfiring on Trump http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2018/05/trumps-racist-immigration-policy-is-backfiring-on-trump.html Quote Illegal crossings are rising again — a reversal that, the Post notes, “has stripped the president of one of his proudest accomplishments — the sharp drop in illegal migration in the months immediately following his 2016 win.” Immigration hawks — Trump’s most natural allies — are despondent. Naturally, Trump has no no grasp of the policy details and simply rages at his subordinates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and we are now forcing immigrants to wear yellow bracelets / bands. And Oh oh, Detroit Become Human is worth buying.

Martell Spy Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Trump’s and Bolton’s Instincts Form a Toxic Combination The interplay between the two helps explain the confusion whirling around the North Korea summit. https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2018/05/trumps-and-boltons-instincts-form-a-toxic-combination/561275/ Quote In the end, Trumpism and Boltonism have produced an outcome that’s worse than either on its own. The summit is or maybe isn’t off, and the U.S. is back to threatening war but confusingly somehow seeking talks. None of this enhances Trump’s credibility as a negotiating partner. Meanwhile, North Korea still has its nuclear weapons, and could resume testing them. By confronting Beijing on trade, the U.S. has squandered some of the leverage it needs to convince China to keep imposing tough sanctions on Pyongyang. And with his initial letter cancelling the summit, Trump surprised and humiliated South Korean leader Moon Jae In, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, as Karl Marx and Frederick Engles would have put it about labor and production -- capitalism rips the veil of sentimentality off the vision of the family. If there were ever any groups who have more hatred for children and the family than rethugs -- well, I at least, find it impossible to find them. The hypocrisy alone should choke them all.

Mr. Chatywin et al. Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Oh noes! There's trouble in paradise The Swamp: Quote Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was reportedly blindsided by President Donald Trump’s decision to cancel the denuclearization summit with North Korea, and he blames National Security Adviser John Bolton for the summit’s failure, NBC Newsreported Thursday evening. Just an hour before the cancellation was announced in a letter to Kim — which Trump reportedly dictated to Bolton — the State Department blasted out a press release to reporters, highlighting the work the department had done with other Asian counterparts in preparation for the meeting, initially set to take place in Singapore next month. The decision was so unexpected that the White House didn’t have a chance to alert congressional leaders or foreign allies ahead of time and the letter went public while dozens of journalists were inside North Korea to witness the demolition of its nuclear test sites. Trump was reportedly eager to pull out of the denuclearization talks because he didn’t want North Korean leader Kim Jong-un to do it before him, NBC News reported. https://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/rift-pompeo-bolton-heart-north-korean-summit-cancel Our master deal-making President, ladies and gentlemen. I have worked for multiple elected officials before, and I've never heard of someone announcing something publicly before fully informing all relevant staff.
