Thanks. I couldn't figure out how to say that without sounding like an asshole. You managed it flawlessly.

I wish I could disagree with this analysis of the current state of our punishment system.

Camels, much like dogs, cats, and other domesticated animals, are constantly pushing their boundaries. The phrase "a camel's nose under the tent" is indicative of a camel that is attempting to find a way inside the tent so that they may eat the, most likely, food that has captured their attention with its scent.

This would be applicable to the Drumpf administration because they are, much like the camel, using a method of "throw everything at the wall and see what sticks," as well as a method of overwhelming the media with birdshot. Namely, if you're creating 50 stories a day, and doing 50 things a day, then the media and the government can't keep up.

Again similar to our camel that has enough strength to tip the tent over, and create a royal mess, in its attempt to get in.

Edit: First time I have heard the phrase as well,.but that is the meaning I would take from context.

They just illegally fired, and replaced the joint chiefs. What makes you think they aren't going to arrest and replace all the democratic representatives and senators?

We're already past The Reichstag Fire

He will be trying to make The Fediverse illegal in the US within the next 6 months.

I agree with that view, but you just kinda picked rabid collectivism, over rabid individualism. You seem to have missed the forest for the trees. Yes, if we are all prospering then you will be prospering as well is literally collectivism distilled into its base form.

I happen to live close to a couple of universities and have been friends with some of the CS faculty for a number of years. I generally just tag along with them.

Protesters at the courthouse have that portion covered with banners

That appears to be a Macintosh 128K and I can confirm that the one my dad got in 1984 still functions. It's not really useful for much these days, but it does work, and you can play Math Blasters, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, and it even has a monochrome paint program.

American here, fully agree. Slava Ukraini!

Chinese ships, Russian crews, All Registered In Ireland!

~~American components, Russian components, All Made In Taiwan!~~

Rabid self interest, and collectivism are kinda mutually exclusive.....
