@notjustbikes That makes me think: since there are not any national automakers in Brazil, the relationship with China is somewhat good, and the demand for EVs is steadily increasing here, Chinese is sure to find a Brazilion potential customers.

Donald 's 'Glitch' During NRA Speech Raises Questions

“Trump sparked commentary on social media after he stopped speaking for more than 30 seconds during a speech.”

@GottaLaff I've been thinking we need to find clips of him speaking, like 1 minute each, in real time, where you can see his lack of focus or otherwise bizarre speech. He benefits from the tiny clips the media goes for. He rambles for minutes and the media reports on the one coherent thing that comes out.

But this isn't it. It's just not clear enough. Unless it shows teleprompter problems, in which case it's a mild punk b/c he once said Obama needed his teleprompter.

As President Biden speaks to the Morehouse College commencement ceremony in Atlanta someone is holding aloft behind him a flag of the DRCongo while one graduating student has turned his back and draped himself in the Palestinian flag.

The empty lot at used to be an ugly single-story building with a McDonald's, but I had them move out before I made this photo.

Via Lisa Rubin:

What is supposed to be a holding room for a former president’s security has, at their own admission, become a de facto campaign HQ . . . in a government building.

Olivia Nuzzi:

The campaign has moved its operational headquarters from West Palm Beach to a holding room inside Manhattan criminal court.

So stop them! Everyone is way to wussy with these traitorous f*cks. The judge was letting sycophants text during the trial. I won't even mention the many many abuses of the gag order by the Congress rats. JFC already.

@georgetakei This is now making me wonder how many store sign size dwellings we can put on an acre of land. Of course, if we were building them for people to live in that would mean they would need plumbing and electricity rather than a long extension cord to a single outlet.... But maybe we've been making this all way too complicated for a long long time!

The Biden Admin is requiring airlines to disclose add-on costs like baggage fees upfront.

It's expected to save fliers $500M/year by making it easier to comparison shop.

Would you be surprised if I told you that Trump's Admin fought against efforts to rein in airline junk fees?

matthewspira ,
@matthewspira@me.dm avatar

@rbreich Uh, no. Not surprising. At all. In fact, I believe they claimed consumers LIKE these junk fees.

bouriquet ,
@bouriquet@mastodon.social avatar

@rbreich Well, as good as it sounds, it won’t change the bottom line. Airlines will still make money, but will eliminate their unrealistic cheap fares that used extra fees to get the funds from passengers. Net cost probably won’t change but fares might go up.
Fuel and salaries still are the same so operating costs don’t change.

Israeli soldiers rounded up Ahmad Safi and his male family members in Khan Younis and made them stand atop a sand dune for 12 hours as the soldiers took cover behind them during a firefight with Palestinian resistance fighters. This is their story.

  1. You should also be very clear that this did not start on October 7 — it is the result of decades of violence by the Israeli Occupation Forces perpetrating Israel's violent and illegal occupation and attacks on hundreds — thousands, really — of Palestinians every year. ###

3. In any event, crimes by Hamas—no matter how horrific—would be no excuse, legally or morally, for the massacre of civilians, for genocide. (Didn't we all lear when we were about seven years old that two wrongs don't make a right?) [2\3]

@BinGanzBrav ich hatte mal überlegt Heilpraktiker zu werden. Leute finden Heilpraktiker toll weil die Zeit für Patienten haben. Ein Hausarzt hat 15 Minuten. Ein Heilpraktiker hat so viel Zeit wie der Patient Geld hat 😂
Wenn Patienten dann ihre Leidensgeschichte erzählen lernt man eben auch welcher Arzt wofür brauchbar ist und Patienten lassen sich dann sinnvoller vermitteln damit sie dann bessere Erfahrungen machen und der Schulmedizin nicht ganz verloren gehen.
Bleiben nur die Verzweifelten und Unheilbaren bei denen nichts mehr hilft. Da wär aber vielleicht Seelsorge nicht ganz falsch. Wär aber eben auch nicht ganz billig.
