I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

its trivial for businesses to lose money while being wildly profitable, its just that the IRS is too busy chasing people who might have earned $7 more than the maximum for claiming the EITC

It's shocking how this is all by design too

you're giving tennessee way too much credit if you think they thought up an original life-wrecking child jail scam instead of just stealing pennsylvania's.

The thing is that they have twisted their logic into a conclusion that this helps the kids somehow because "God's plan", and while they're at it they get a kickback and all the perks of holding their respective offices.

Texas abortion ban back in effect thanks to an emergency appeal by indicted felon ken paxton and a stay on the district court’s decision.

The fifth circuit is going to rubber stamp texas’ argument that the feds have no standing and the scotus will deny cert. i don’t see a way out of this.

Never forget that gun control in CA is rooted in disarming minorities and discouraging them from legal gun ownership and not bothering "decent white folks law abiding citizens." They sure do love making it *inconvenient* to own guns, but again, that's just so "the right sort" go through the rigmarole.

CA might pride itself on being the state whose laws and policies the rest of the country "catches up to," but it's way more likely NY does what you're forecasting first.

From what I’ve read, this is standard saber rattling and doesn’t really go past the rhetoric they’ve always used.

Reminder that the US, Japan, and others just got done with some westpac wargames, and one doesn’t have to think too hard to imagine who would be the hostile nation in those ops.

There isn't much serious doubt that an invasion is something Xi really wants to see in his lifetime, but what he wants isn't the lone factor in all this. There's still debate over whether China can be kept busy with other disasters until his time runs out

I’m no expert but seeing the disruption when one port in China is shut down after a positive Covid test, seems like a naval war would totally stop exports and imports. Even if we assume they have stockpiled would guess even if they won and annexed Taiwan if there were major US navy losses there would be near universal support for stopping anything from entering or leaving their ports.

I know this would cause a recession in the west but seems like they’d be hurt more with tens of millions of idle factory workers and no coal from Australia. Imagine Russia would try to buy more to embarrass the west but that wouldn’t make up the difference.

Wonder what the smallest navy is that could bring the entire global economy screeching to a halt by going ham on container ships / bulk carriers / tankers.

e: a WW2 torpedo boat torpedoing something real good in the Suez would probably do it

A suicide boat attack against an LNG carrier is the straits of Malacca would probably be even worse than the Suez being shut down.
