Sounds about as safe as any other car from the 1900s.

It might be just luck, but I’m kinda impressed with the rider’s control. If that happens to me, no way I don’t end up a behelmeted greasy stain on the wall.

To my ignorant untrained eye, this looks like frigate money for patrol boat capability + hangar.

Wrong! Sad! Believe me!

Who’s talking about launchers?

Let’s not be facetious, it’s a defensive system that can target China’s second strike nuclear capability. If you were planning to start shit with China, some time down the line, deploying THAAD along it’s borders would be the 1st thing you’d do.

Right now this “cure” is worse than the disease.

It’s adorable how you think two parties have been operating outside the norms... 

...and South Koreans who don’t want it, they can stuff it too? Fascinating how that works.

It’s escalating tensions, and putting South Korea in hot water with both North Korea and China. For a weapons system deployment of which was negotiated with a former Korean president, who had since resigned in disgrace and is about to be carted off to jail. China suspects the posturing is as much for their benefit as…

Not only is it unlikely to be effective, it is also unwelcome! The deployment of the ballistic shield has been accelerated since the resignation of Park Guen-Hye, because the US know damn well that the likely next president of South Korea, Moon Jae-In doesn’t want the damn thing, so now they’re trying to get it…

They make the most succinctly named celeb pairing.

In 2003 70% of Americans believed Saddam was involved in 9-11. How did they get that idea? It’s almost as if the media had been lying to them. Not just that, they all told the same lie. A profitable one.

“Lawrence’s extensive film career. In the early 1900s, she was a big deal, and was even the subject of a very early form of fake news, as a film company she worked for staged a hoax that said she was killed in a streetcar accident.”

No. Just start them.

There is. However, media companies are rarely independent, and the corporation that owns it may use the media arm of it’s businesses to ratchet up the profits in other sectors.

‘Weaponizes’ is a bit strong, no? The notion that whoever own the media enterprise gets to influence it’s viewpoint, whether that’s Russian government, or just a friendly neighborhood weapons manufacturing conglomerate, isn’t particularly new or illuminating to me.

So basically HoverChair mark 1? Neat.

“Imagine any other instituition other than one related to the church - a company, a political party, a NGO, etc. - in whose property hundreds of infants and fetuses were found buried.”
