Anarchy seems more likely to mr than fascism in the aftermath of such an election outcome. Trump has too many haters for there to be a peaceful transition this time.

I believe you can grow them as long as they are more than 150 feet from a white pine tree. The plants were originally banned because they were blamed for some sort of disease that jeopardized the lumber industry.

You know how Trump likes to project? First the whole birth certificate thing, and now this. I'm becoming increasingly convinced he is an illegal immigrant.

Sander Katz has a book called "The Revolution Will Not Be Microwaved" which holds up the microwave as the prime example of what is wrong with modern eating.

I suggest looking into cooking with cast iron skillets. There are tons of great and simple foods you can make with couple of inexpensive cast iron pans. There used to be a cast iron cookery subreddit. There may be one here, I haven't looked yet.

Another essential is a good wok. (cast iron or otherwise) Basically you throw a bunch of semi-random stuff and some sauce iron seasoning in a wok and heat it up. The variations are endless, quick, and often tasty once you get the hang of it.

The main Russian news organization is call "Pravda", which is Russian for "Truth". Their social media arm therefore, translated to English, would probably be called "Truth Social".

I don't think people are buying DJT because they expect to make money. It is more of a cult and prestige stock. One article called it a "meme stock". This makes the price harder to predict because it isn't based on numbers but something much less tangible. Throw in some securities fraud, and a few billionaires thinking it is another way to bribe or gain access to his majesty and this is a ticker I wouldn't touch with a 20 foot pole.

The Supreme Court is setting them free however.

It is likely to disrupt shipping in a major US port. This will have repercussions throughout the economy until the port is fully reopened.

It is less about being on the fence versus being motivated to actually go vote. Most people are like "whatever", and "my vote doesn't matter anyhow" and "if I vote, I'm going to get jury duty". If the politicians can't get people to vote, they lose.
