Want people to eat more US tomatoes? Maybe try making them taste good instead of just growing the tomato equivalent of iceberg lettuce because it keeps for weeks and "looks good"

The current administration is very anti-antisemitism, I'm sure they'll get right on it.... Any minute now.....

99% chance it'll wind up in the T&C of just about every "free" service sporting "AI" features. People will sell their likeness without even blinking

Or 69 freedom buckaroos for 22 pounds of rice

>Several people, including children, suffered “health complaints, such as dizziness” after eating sweets from three 1kg packs

I'd provably be dizzy too if I'd just eaten 3kg of sweets.

"By last year we _technically_ meant there were 25 days last year in which that wasn't the official conclusion of the ICJ"

Yep.

What kind of monster plots a time series vertically?

Mmm school cafeteria fish, sounds delish and like nothing could be even remotely disappointing about that option.

Trump's a big fan of throwing out decades of precedence and international agreements. UK should formally renounce the Treaty of Paris and just to fuck with him.

Ahh yes, the "thank God I have infinite money, I literally _can't_ lose" approach.

"Worth" only according to its owner, who paid himself to buy it from himself under a different org. Good luck finding an outside investor willing to spend $30B on it now that it's turned into a hate pool with a shit revenue stream

Start the campaign now for President in 2256. Wouldn't want the judges to look politically biased, they'll have to hold off on sentencing until after the election.

And the people in the chat who have the authority to declassify information declared it to be a declassified chat, so IDK what more permission he needed to share what was freely given to him

!Ken Jeong, actor from the stupidest country on Earth, mimics ejaculation whilst clothed in the desert.

In addition to a comically large bill to pay, Saudi Arabia has a pretty significant issue with attracting outside investors / tourism. I'm guessing most people visiting this thread can't name the capital of SA (hint, it's not Dubai... That's not even in the right country)

No one wants to visit because they're actively hostile towards even the slightest imposition on their beliefs.

It's hard to justify going somewhere where you could get locked up for what would elsewhere be considered a minor faux pas.

Good luck justifying a $9T vanity project that will only be visited / populated by citizen oil workers, assuming they will even still have jobs in a few decades.

SA needs to undergo some pretty significant cultural shifts before even considering dropping a few trilly on some new digs.

I think one big issue is much of the cheap debt is loans people have defaulted on. So you have to stop paying the debt, hope for minimal ramifications before it hits the open market, then buy it back up at a discount, assuming you have the funds laying around to afford the discounted rate.

Loans backed by property (e.g., home, car) which can be repossessed tend to not be as heavily discounted. So its really just if you have massive credit card, student loan, or medical debt, and are willing to put up with harassment from debt collectors on the _hope_ that it'll be bundled into something worth less than your individual debt

Aside: WTF is that cover photo? Is Trump dancing? Is it supposed to look like he's trying to throw a punch?

I find it hard to imagine wanting to have kids just so your dictator has more meat to feed into his meat grinder. Perhaps the only good news is Putin hopefully doesn't have 18 more years in him, so the kids won't have to deal with him directly, but who knows who will sit in the throne next...
