Let’s not pretend the Hamas kidnapping and killings never happened. There can be more than one bad guy in the story and they can have complicated backstories.
Easy to have high speed rail when a dictator makes all the decisions and doesn’t have to worry about political opposition or profitability. (Talking about China in case it wasn’t obvious.)
edit: Yes, the U.S. need to improve its infrastructure. But don’t compare us to the likes of China since their form of government gives them an advantage when it comes to large government-backed projects.
Yes, but… London has great underground network qnd service as well without the dictatorship. France too. Stockholm as well. Sorry, your argument is based on one data point only.
I’m not even sure you know what my argument is. I haven’t articulated a full point so I think there’s some filling in the gaps going on. But what I wrote up above (without people reading into it) is factual.
London (it’s geographical location)has been a living space and communal hub since 43CE, maybe if we give America a thousand years or so they will also build public transportation.
No, sadly it was much later than that. It’s like saying “shaq can dunk but this stupid fucking infant over there can’t even dribble the ball”. Yes, great point I am so enlightened.
Dude, I went to deliver the beers for the family new years eve party earlier on the 31st and my SIL mande up a fight about nothing as soon as I walked in and told me I shouldn’t go to the party. I paid for the beer! She kept it all and now my family don’t speak to me because “I wasn’t at the party”. 2024 began with me crying alone at home with no money for pizza because I bought beer for everyone. FML
You should try to explain to the family why you weren’t there (if they’ll listen)
But honestly if they’re being so petty of you missing 1 party it might be time to look more deeply at the kind of relationships you have with them
Personally I haven’t seen most of my relatives in years due to a great many of them being really shitty people or being complacent when those shittier relatives are being shitty. And it’s been pretty nice how much my stress levels have gone down during the holidays.
Family is the relationship, relatives are blood. Just because someone is related to you doesn’t mean they’re family.
family schmamily. surrounding yourself with people who care about you because they want to and not because they’re family takes time, but in the end you’re worth it.
By annual ridership, the New York City Subway is the busiest rapid transit system in both the Western Hemisphere and the Western world, as well as the eleventh-busiest rapid transit rail system in the world.[18] The subway carried 1,793,073,000 riders in 2022.[6]: 2 [note 5] On October 29, 2015, more than 6.2 million people rode the subway system, establishing the highest single-day ridership since ridership was regularly monitored in 1985.[20]
The system is also one of the world’s longest. Overall, the system contains 248 miles (399 km) of routes,[10] translating into 665 miles (1,070 km) of revenue track[10] and a total of 850 miles (1,370 km) including non-revenue trackage.[11] Of the system’s 28 routes or “services” (which usually share track or “lines” with other services), 25 pass through Manhattan, the exceptions being the G train, the Franklin Avenue Shuttle, and the Rockaway Park Shuttle.
The NYC system was built a century ago and operates at an astonishing level considering its for one city and is so relatively inexpensive.
And this appears to be a shot of a closed station that appears to be lit by flashlight - my guess is someone urbexing an abandoned station. There are quite a few stations in NYC that have been closed in the past century and aren’t well maintained. Some are still passed by active trains even though there’s no longer a stop there.
Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think the US gave Israel funds as this meme is implying (other than maybe humanitarian aid). They are willingly selling them weapons though.
And it’s pretty ignorant. If it were a picture of the white house instead of who’s in it for a couple years then it wouldn’t be so dumb. Better would be a picture of Congress.
Right?! American foreign policy is pretty much exactly the same regardless of who is in the oval office, well except for 45 who was somehow managed to run foreign policy even worse than the status quo.
No kidding, this mickey fella seems like a dick and animal abusers, and this is actually the censored version too, which means the original is even more brutal (I think they removed the part where mickey kicks the baby pigs).
