"... and the record will show that I kicked him repeatedly long before he went down. I beat him like a mad dog with mange every time I got a chance, and I am proud of it. He was scum”

I think mining is exceptionally poor for your health, esp re respiratory disease, lack of vitamin D, and also usually highly correlated with near poverty (and the health issues that’s associated with)
Ever been to a high altitude city? I was short of breath for my first week in Mexico City, and my lungs hurt after exercise. It’s very disconcerting, but also just a slight inconvenience.
Bezos has unambiguously produced 1m times more than what most humans have.
You mean "countries", right, or are you trying to make some point about nationalism?
Could you turn a DAO into a company? Sure, if you incorporated it, but that requires a country to incorporate it in.
It _is_ shocking news: the Israelis are selling munitions to the Moroccan government explicitly for use against the French state.
That’s not a real thing
Between this, Nord Stream 2, etc, Germany's commercial elite are having more and more to answer for...
8/10 top parody comment. You could have strengthened it by suggesting they turn to brioche if they don't have enough bread to eat though.
To be clear, the beauticians explicitly didn't care (per their claims) what the birth sex of the customer was, so I'm not sure how that would be a relevant question here? Per their claims, they'd have had the same issue with a trans-man who'd had bottom surgery.

Typically, a suspect will be remanded only if it is likely that he or she could commit a serious crime, interfere with the investigation, or fail to come to the trial.
Because he’s a proven flight risk.
Because VIP users include people who run big-tech. Ask Bezos if it's worth fixing bugs that only target VIPs.
> One very reputable public health specialist expects that the population will be decimated by at least 10-15 million by the time Covid is done with Myanmar
I really don’t think you can come up with a headline figure like that and then hand-wave away the actual source.
My Bangkok dentist with an MPH from a good American university has been forwarding me Covid horror stories that are trivially debunked as fake news for the last 18 months — without names and verifiable quotes, the whole thing is worthless.
