If you want to ride high speed rail just for the hell of it, take the Japanese Shinkansen. The Chinese Harmony Trains aren't nearly as good, and the food SUCKS. They foisted the contract off to someone's brother in Beijing and he's retired in Canada on all the money he made serving substandard food to passengers.
Cause it's like a week and a half stuck in a metal box, eating shitty food.
I heard the trans Siberian railway is full of thieves who get on for a short segment, rob you blind, and get off at the next stop.
That's amazing! I've got the same password on my luggage!

The hippies did change the world permanently. The stereotype of the college professor used to be a stodgy old conservative with a sportscoat and patches on the elbows. Today's professor has a ponytail and is adjacent to Marxism. Change happens, it just doesn't happen as fast as people would like. It does happen, though, and it is irreversible.
LOL a lot of these are wreckers.
And their commitment to free speech means they won't ban these people! LOLOLOL
The whole point behind Lovecraft's stories was that they were extraordinary events occurring in mundane surroundings. You know, like your town!
I wouldn't expect anything else.
The right has been getting a bigtime education in Critical Theory, and they don't like it one bit. It's dissolving their entire worldview like detergent in water. Now they're desperately grabbing at the weapons of the enemy to try and turn the tide.
It probably won't work. It's lose-lose. Either they let Critical Theory run its course and it kills them, or they oppose it with authoritarian measures and everyone sees them for the fascists that they are. And the backlash to that kills them.
I would not want to be a rightist in America these days. I know it's all doom-n-gloom on the left but the right are clearly losing the culture war, and losing big. In 20 years most college graduates will be queered, and the rate of family formation will plummet.
Being able to prevent puberty is one of the most important parts of trans kid healthcare. Puberty causes irreversible damage, such as dropped voice, disfiguring body hair, and either breast development or large testicles. All of these lifelong problems can be nipped in the bud with puberty blockers. 🥰
It's New England. Did you expect anything but a grid astride a river?
Need the J. Jonah Jameson reaction for this one.
I love JJJ. I have a soft spot for complete assholes in fiction.
Sean Penn, the anti-war, Code Pink Sean Penn, is a full-throated advocate of war. He's in the "send more weapons" so the fighting doesn't end camp. 100%. I don't know how someone does a heel turn so abruptly like that.
That's the thing about bullying nerds - it's a lot of fun to do but when they grow up, they think that's what normal human interaction is. They identify anyone who's vulnerable, then bully them, too. And why not? It's the only mode of human interaction they've ever experienced. It's one reason they retreat into games in the first place, to get away from all the people.
He did quit cold turkey, it almost killed him. He had to do this weird thing at a hospital in Russia where they gave him propofol for a couple of weeks.
If that sounds familiar, it's the drug that quack gave to Micheal Jackson. Then, the quack didn't monitor Micheal's heartbeat because he had to step outside and make 45 minutes of phone calls to his various girlfriends. At some point Micheal's heart stopped - because propofol is a short-term surgical anesthetic, not a sedative - and by the time the quack finished his call and came back in, Micheal was dead as a doornail. Unfortunately the doctors in Russia were better and Peterson survived several weeks under anesthesia while he got un-addicted to benzos.
It's hard to get excited about the whitest state in America. Being rural doesn't help, either.
