Obviously diabetics still need medical care.

You late for your job at the circus?

Of course we already do that.

How’s that working for us?

checks how fat America is

Oh.

Even the sun shines on a dogs ass some days.

He’s not wrong, he’s just right for the wrong reasons.

90% of diabetics in the US are type 2. 90%.Our food culture is way out of whack, and we need to fix it.

Obviously diabetics still need medical care. But revamping the way we view food will allow many Americans to keep the amount of feet they were born with.

I’m very much against the death penalty. My state doesn’t have it anymore, and good riddance. However, those kinds of checks are necessary, if it absolutely must occur.

…don’t we all? It’s one thing to support basic human decency without going out of your way to defend a clearly predatory industry or person, as she did. As the lack of oversight here allowed this individual to rape 300 people.

It’s not that. She supported Gerard Depardeau. It was a controversy about sexual assault in the French film industry. There’s a bunch of articles covering it.

Press, and family of the inmate, if I recall.

I believe it’s very important that these executions are observed. If the state gets to operate with impunity and no witnesses, many of these states have shown they don’t have what it takes to act ethically with regards to the death penalty.

Every execution would be, “flawless”, with no witnesses to say otherwise. Many victims families most likely wouldn’t care either way, so it’s the rest of the publics duty to ensure that executions are conducted in the most humane manner possible.

I’m sure Brigitte Bardot will be along shortly to protest the injustice…of a sex criminal suffering the consequences of their actions.

I think that was actually the point of that movie. Like the only time he actually tries to do any detective work, it turns out to just be a sketch of a dude with a comically large boner.

I kinda thought the disjointed nature was part of it, sending him through different social strata. Maybe I’ve watched it too many times while zooted, idk.

Same. I mean, it wasn’t a bad movie, but I didn’t walk out of the movie theater and think about it a lot after, either. Even though it’s supposed to be a movie you think about. I like all sorts of foreign films, so it’s not that.

You asked for sources, I them to you, lmao. Also, I don’t give a shit about Japan. I live in the US, which is why we’ve been talking about the US. Did you hit your head recently?

This is from Wikipedia, but the only other instances I could find were clearly biased sources, like the Cato.

There’s actually a few that do break almost even, I didn’t think any did.

As to what your point is, I have no idea, and don’t care. My initial comment pointed out that conflating public transport with the tax sources for roads isn’t the ven close. I was correct, as pointed to your sources, and now my own.

Those numbers absolutely don’t back your point. Most of those states provide greater than 50% of the revenue for their roads from local sources, whereas public transport is less than 50% in most cases. None of them get close to funding themselves.

I’d be very curious to see where you pulled those numbers.

Road maintenance is funded by the people that use them, in the form of tolls, registrations, and gas taxes. Public transport is mostly taxpayers that don’t use it, subsidized by riders. That’s a massive difference.

Like the great warrior philosopher Wesley Snipes once said, “Some motherfuckers are always trying to ice skate uphill.”

I gave up on Reddit a few months back, but to say that Lemmy is as simple and intuitive as reddit just isn’t true. I only use Lemmy now, and it’s not very convenient, but I get the highlights from the news, which is all I really wanted.
