I was not aware of that. American prisons are fucked up, so this might still have been a survival situation. But even if not she, like any human, deserves a life in a peaceful person cell with decent food. Prison is about protecting people from her, not about punishment but rehabilitation. And if that is impossible she can’t go free but there is no need for revenge in a just society.

That’s sadly not how power works. You usually hold it until it’s taken. And people are elected. All people. Even those we don’t like. Even insane people. That’s democracy and people are dumb and make mistakes.

People coming up with such rules that sound reasonable forget the reason why no rules like that will ever exist. It’s the slippery slope argument: If you start taking power from anyone because of their age, the question becomes who will decide at which age power is stripped? Who will be stripping and once the rule is established will someone change that rule to their benefit and start taking power from political opponents etc.? We strip power from those sick and unable to hold it… Usually. And on a case by case basis. Because you usually can argue for that person why they are unfit. Just reaching an age does not make you unfit by default. And there are tests to prove you are unfit…,… And then there is the U.S… They would not strip trumps power at any age. Even if there was a law… So yeah.

Granny knot. Making the knot the right way helps top never having to re-tie my shoes during the whole day.

That she is. She killed her at 19 years old, which is pretty young. In germany, it would be legal not to try her as an adult and she would not get capital punishment. Probably fifteen years and change and getting out if she can be rehabilitated after that. This is just cruel.

I would love to see another initiative like the giving oath. After they show they are not a piggy bank to crack open and waste like every other money pool greedy politicians get their grubby hands on, they get together and discuss the state of peoples wellfair and decide to pledge 5% voluntarily to a communally run wellfaire fund to help the people struggling the most in a sustainable way.

Now say again this isn’t generational trauma at it’s peak? The abused and slaughtered nation becomes the abuser. Bibi might go down in history as the next Hitler. Pray he doesn’t have the German need for efficiency.

Wow, that’s not a healthy cat.

The usual suspect would be lax security measures due to corruption.

BARCELONA, Spain (AP) — A high-speed train slammed into the rear of another train that had stopped, derailing two cars and killing at least 30 people on Wednesday in central Spain, according to local media.

It’s 30 people now.

Sounds reasonable. Assuming matter and antimatter split into equal parts that would have to be the case. I’m not sure if annihilation is a perfect process. Assuming energy density creates separation of energy into matter and antimatter of equal parts and no sudden annihilation happens, that would most certainly result in such a conclusion.

TIL. Thanks!

I always assume it’s the same reason why are have mostly right handed people. It’s just that the scales tipped at some point and it had to go down one way from that point.

I’m not arguing pro death penalty. I’m actually hardline against it. I agree with your statement absolutely. Just stating that the malice part comes from the unnecessary cruelty, intended or not. In theory the protocol was designed to be painless and clinical, but they keep botching it but also keep doing it, which is in fact malicious even when applying Hanlons razor.

In theory that should be carried out like euthanasia. Imagine someone putting down your dog and they cause all kinds of suffering because they like causing it and the animal is gonna be dead either way. It wouldn’t be acceptable either.

Absolutely. You know this web comic where a wolf smells the meat from a human camp from afar and on the next panel he is a pooch? ;)

And to think that this started as a wolf just a few generations ago.

It’s called compound growth and everybody has equal access to that. Getting the capital is the trick and it’s not really easy to save a little consistently.

Maybe somebody should tell the state to build more affordable housing. People like voters…
