Could we start with making human existence right here on earth more bearable?

Well, they do help shed rain from roofs, but otherwise that sounds about as fun as getting gonorrhea. What you describe sounds like a histamine response, similar to why we react to allergens.

Sounds lovely. Could probably find one in the MB museum in Stuttgart.

I find that within same session, opening a thread brings me to the end but if I come back later in a new browser session opening the threads starts me on post #1 (even if I click the timestamp instead of the title link).

From the cipher brief newsletter: U.S. HITS IRANIAN ‘SHADOW FLEET’ WITH MORE SANCTIONS — The U.S. imposed another round of sanctions against Iran, targeting the country’s “shadow fleet” of tankers that transport Iranian oil. The latest measures target Jugwinder Singh Brar, a UAE-based Indian national who the Treasury Department said owns shipping companies with nearly 30 vessels, many of which are in the shadow fleet. "Brar’s vessels engage in high-risk ship-to-ship (STS) transfers of Iranian petroleum in waters off Iraq, Iran, the UAE, and the Gulf of Oman," Treasury said in a statement. The department added it will continue to target other shippers and brokers who facilitate illicit Iranian oil transfers. The sanctions on Tehran come just two days before the U.S.-Iran talks that are set to take place in Oman on Saturday. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Thursday that the negotiations will be direct (which Iranian officials have said is not true.) "We hope that'll lead to peace. We've been very clear that Iran is never going to have a nuclear weapon, and I think that's what led to this meeting," Rubio said during a Cabinet meeting.

Your experience apparently isn’t equivalent to mine

I find this far more frustrating than I expected to

Pres. Trump said in the Oval Office on Monday that his administration is going to have "direct talks" with Iran on Saturday. Read more: https://abcnews.link/1ruSEJR

I’m sorry you’re dealing with this. No fun. I really can’t offer anything other than empathy and encouragement, though

This is also one of the objectives. People who are afraid are people who are easier to control

… and disappear them into Venezuelan prisons, too.

Yes. I’ve been having exactly the same thought for about 2 weeks now, but without all the logistical backup data you shared here. I think it’s inevitable especially with what’s happening in Israel and Bibi meeting Trump in DC on Monday

Of course, and refusal to accept that possibility is another example of a failure of imagination. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medvedev–Putin_tandemocracy

In other words, he’s a solid loyalist within Trump’s inner circle, thus making this: …FAR less likely, IMO.

Yeah, but I may hate doing drywall even more

Why would you assume that? Rollover it with a wallpaper scoring tool, steam the hell out of it, and peel.

Ask hundreds and you’ll often find consensus, but you’ll also often find a handful of outliers who feel differently. Those individuals are referred to as unrepresentative.

Agreed, and even if the courts perhaps decided he wasn’t legally allowed a 3rd term they lack any enforcement mechanisms of their own and he’d just ignore them, have the judeges impeached, and likely sent to prison labor camps in Venezuela. This is a failure of imagination on your part

Nobody’s talking about the citizens he’s disappearing, and how even ones they admit were sent to Venezuelan prisons in error are still there and being ignored.

They also give him more direct control over the economy, specifically in the ability he will now have to grant exceptions for friends and folks who bend the knee.
