euphronius posted:In a city council meeting with people arguing about adding streetlights strenuously I dunno if the municipality was getting fleeced but the thing that slowed down getting streetlights at an intersection near my parents that had half a dozen fatalities in one year was the cost. It was something like $150k to get buy and install them

Tomorrow the people of Texas north will either elect a left leaning government and end 44 years of conservative rule, or prove Canadian polls continue to be poo poo. Either way its gonna be hilarious

zoux posted:I am repentant for our crimes but I don't think that "Should we have nuked Japan" is a historically resolved issue, as I've heard compelling arguments for both sides the problem with the debate imo is it's often treated as a seperate issue from strategic bombing, which it shouldn't be as everyone saw the atomic bomb as the logical conclusion to strategic bombing. which can be a strike against it (strategic bombing's effectiveness is dubious) or for it (it accomplished the intended goal of strategic bombing campaigns by demoralizing the civilian population)

zoux posted:i just don't see it as that distinct from all the other 100k casualty bombing campaigns we did. As a historical precedent and setting the table for the Cold War and nuclear arms race it was clearly significant but as far as being a uniquely heinous war crime well ya that's my point
