It's the party of projection. Everything they talk about is solely because that's what they are doing/would do if given the opportunity.

This has been obvious to anyone paying attention for decades now. After the fall of the Soviet Union, Russia turned their massive propaganda infrastructure outwards.

Considering the entire prison population was about 7,500 last year and they only have about 5,000 beds across all facilities... That's a pretty large percentage.

And to add to that, from this specific article:

According to a recent Kriminalvården report, Sweden’s prison population could – in the most extreme scenario – grow from 7,800 this year to 41,000 in 2034 as a result of more punitive policies driven by the far right.

They're looking at a 500% increase in the prison population within a decade because of the new policies. If that's not a shift towards mass incarceration I'd like to know what your definition would be.

I honestly feel like this is some sort of genetic thing. Even kittens, who have never had a chance to be taught this, somehow know exactly when the most inopportune time is and seem to focus on getting it just right.

The problem is that inevitably take innocent people with them one way or another. Especially children.

Well it's not working. Got a paywall here on mobile Firefox, no extensions that modify or strip links.

How were the switches designed such that they prevented accidental activation? Because it looks like they just get simply flipped down. Could it be pull-out-and-down? Or maybe there's a lot of resistance during the switch action?

The lever-lock fuel switches are designed to prevent accidental activation - they must be pulled up to unlock before flipping, a safety feature dating back to the 1950s. This isn't a new or weird design. It's essentially the standard used in basically every plane because it works.

"It would be almost impossible to pull both switches with a single movement of one hand, and this makes accidental deployment unlikely," a Canada-based air accidents investigator, who wanted to remain unnamed, told the BBC.

Also, you can access the website from any device with a web browser. The same goes for Apple.

This is again a reminder to anyone in the armed forces that while service does mean citizenship, you do not receive it by default. You must fill out the paperwork and follow through to ensure you receive it and don't fall through the cracks.

It's ironic that his original pick, while a blatant issue due to nepotism and coming from Elon... Jared Isaacman does actually know Space and has experience in orbit. Anyone that's experienced the Overview Effect is almost surely a better option for leading NASA than most other choices, especially this dude.

Let me guess, watching Ryan Trahan's 50 States in 50 Days series?

What sort of ass-backwards State allows direct Voter-approved laws to be repealed by the politicians. The purpose of having that process is to deal with situations where the State can't get their shit together.
