I can’t find the video, and I don’t usually give police the benefit of the doubt, but going out to help a drowning person without a floating device or a rope attached to land or a boat is asking to be drowned yourself, especially if you’re not a strong swimmer.

It would have been a really tall order to beat Swiatek. The Pole is not only ranked #1, she’s also on one heck of a hot streak: that victory was her 35th in a row, matching a record set by Venus Williams in 2000.

I’m guessing peak use hours are in the early evening, while peak generating hours for solar are around noon? Some automation would help here, driers and dishwashers set to run in the middle of the day even if everyone’s at work, aircon turning on a little before people get home, etc. Not sure how much difference it

It’s “free” as in “free to use,” like the sidewalk in front of your house. Yes, we know our healthcare and sidewalks don’t fall from the sky or grow on trees and that they’re paid for somehow, and it’s true that not everything is covered, but we don’t worry or even think about costs for about 90% of the time we need

To be fair, the face on that mural is strangely scrambled below the nose. Maybe you could tell it’s supposed to be John Lewis based on the location, but can you really recognize him from that Picassoed mess?

It’s the white father of the boy (Brunson) who answered the door with a gun in his hand, not the black father (Nash). It feels like THAT should be the main story, though I suppose “Texas homeowner almost shoots himself in the foot while answering door” happens several times a week, while a 9-year old angrily whipping

Oops, you’re right, complete misreading on my part. Too late to edit. Maybe flyingstitch can dismiss my post.

Agreed, but it’s so discouraging that he still felt he needed to say “he feared for his life” because of the “big girl” who appeared to not even have noticed him. It’s like it’s such a foolproof get-out-of-jail-free card that they use it even when they appear to have a good case otherwise. 

It looks like a very clumsy and amateurish attempt at optimizing the article for search engines.

It was the US that kept suggesting that Poland might give its MiG fighter planes to Ukraine. Problem for Poland is that could very well invite a retaliation from Russia via missile strikes on Polish airfields. So Poland basically said “You’re so eager for Ukraine to get our MiGs? Here why don’t YOU give it to them

It’s actually not different from men’s/women’s international soccer at all. In both cases the revenue generated by the men’s teams dwarves that of the women’s.

No, you’re confusing “Poland didn’t open its borders” with “Ukrainian border guards who are undermanned because of the war are unable to process tens of thousands of refugees quickly.”

The war started on the 24th. Poland relaxed the rules at the border on the 25th. By the 27th a 115,000 refugees in the country already.

Most nations are smart enough to give foreign nationals respect during times of crisis in order to garner sympathy.”

You’re literally suggesting that the African students are somehow not endangered enough to flee a warzone as quickly as the whites. Who gives a fuck if they are in their 20s. Irrelevant.”

That’s pretty much it, but it’s kind of like US southerners saying their controversial statues are of “fighters for States’ rights.” Their contribution to history as anti-communist fighters was negligible to the crimes they committed against civilians. Hopefully they’ll win now and replace the statues and rename the

Ukrainians have already figured out their own “life-hack” for dealing with unsupervised Russian troop carriers:

The Soviets invested a lot into universities, and decent infrastructure and educational traditions remain in many of the former republics, plus the new countries themselves try to keep investing into it. The low cost of living makes it attractive to students from developing nations. I had an acquaintance from Brazil wh

I’m guessing the exemption is that if you have the passport of another country then you can leave, and Israel grants citizenship to any Jew who wants it.

Ukraine’s fascists and Nazi collaborators murdered nearly 100,000 Poles during the war, plus thousands of Jews. Ukraine still has monuments to the collaborators, political movements named after them; it’s been a bone of contention between Ukraine and Poland for a long time. That’s much bigger than being forced to wait
