It's a bike, you don't need electricity to run it, just get your exercise in. Now, if we replaced a bunch of courier vans and stuff with those, I'd be down with that. And gently caress Missouri.

I bike commuted in Boston for 5-6 years. I did tons of long distance cycling before and during that as well for fun/exercise. An electric bike would be great if I worked in an office etc. Biking is way faster than local transit in many situations but much of the year gets you sweaty / necessitates having to shower at work or bring an extra set of clothes etc. An electric bike gets rid of a lot of that. If they were a little cheaper I could start commuting in on one now even in my more rural commute setting I have these days.

I'm only kind of joking about this.

I can hold the statements "Elon Musk is a terrible human being" and "I've driven a Model S for eight years and it's the best car I've ever owned" with zero conflict between them.

There are a large number of migrant camps in northern France. It is difficult to enter England via Chunnel without approval. If a migrant can reach England via boat they may be able to stay.

Alright, for arguments sake let's say it's true global elites unleashed covid. To what end? They're already in control of every thing from entertainment to food distribution. Wouldn't disrupting the status quo by killing a bunch of people and loving up globalized economy's be bad for them? Why did Trump and a bunch of other us politicians get covid?

Stultus Maximus posted:Director of the DIA. The thing about q that gets me most is it's literally fan fiction about how the deep state is good and did a coup (which is good), but all the fans insist they hate the deep state. I thought the whole point of politics in the past few years is at least people could be honest about what they wanted, but no. Even the 'deep state coups are good' q people won't just openly say their beliefs and allegiances.

The B.1.1.529 situation is unfolding rapidly, in part because a quirk of the variant’s genetics and PCR testing allow South African health authorities to reanalyze recent test data and find many more cases. https://twitter.com/miamalan/status/1463846528578109444

They may have family/friends here already. They may have better English language skills than other European languages. They have probably been promised that it’s an easy life here and their family will be able to stop together. They’ve been ruthlessly exploited by people trafficking gangs. They almost certainly don’t understand that half of the donkeys here voted to leave the EU to keep people like them away, or what that means. Poor bastards.

The refugee situation around the EU borders has been grim as poo poo for a while now. What just happened in the English Channel has been going on in the Mediterranean for years, tons of people from places like Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria trying to get to southern Europe by any means possible and crossing from northern Africa in anything that floats. Human trafficking gangs take everything they own for payment. It's a level of desperation-induced bravery that I'm very thankful for not having experienced (yet).

Also, apparently if they make it to UK soil they've got additional protections and avenues to apply for refugee status, similar to the situation in Australia. One possibility is the UK turning to Albania to serve as their Nauru.The Economist posted:Those migrants who make it to Britain’s shores have the right to seek asylum. As an EU member Britain could invoke the Dublin Convention, a deal struck in 2013 that requires claims to be made in the EU country of first arrival. In fact, returning those who moved on proved difficult. But in any case, Britain is no longer covered.
