I think they were attempting to imply he was more dangerous than her and more deserving of being on the list. Its probably true, but tactically chosen pictures make the differences between them more extreme, less than a mug shot of her and a wedding photo of him would, as an example.
I am surprised they didn't find the classic terrorist photo (holding a weapon) they usually seek out for these headlines.
Compared to what I usually see, this is pretty mild.
He doesn't really look angry to me. And he does have a beard and is Arab so those seem like things that will be in every picture of him.
I'm sure hos photo is from the wanted list and hers is from her bio somewhere, but the juxtaposition just serves to magnify the point.
Huzzah! Looking forward to this one.
Dear God, I agree so much. I'm so tired of that era. I really think I would love to see the immediate aftermath of Voyager's return along with the scientific advances and knowledge they gathered along the way. They were first contact for dozens of worlds. Picard showed us that the Romulan Empire collapsed (which is huge!) and there was a widespread implementation of androids (made no sense) and widespread use of holographic crew (made perfect sense).
I would have loved to see us get there in a relatively slow pace like DS9 did with the War against the dominion. Even that still deserves a little more exposure which would be in the same time period. I can imagine people still being paranoid about shapeshifters for years after.
I was gonna say that it would only be unfortunate due to giving them a reason to attack Iran, but history has shown us that doesn't matter. We'll do that regardless. If we dont have a reason we've been happy to just make one up.
At this point its really just a matter of not wanting to actually fight America on the battlefield.
Uh... they're still people. They like doing good rewarding things and they like learning real skills.
In this case they aren't ever in neighborhoods spraying down homes. These are the guys in hills cutting fire breaks to stop the fires from ever reaching homes.
None of these fire fighters are forced. Its a job that they earn privileges for doing. They're probably not as gung-ho about it as someone who's made a career of it but they aren't slaves like you're imagining.
I've seen a bunch of his shorts and its obscene the things builders skip and then get furious about being called out on.
On release that may be fine, but it will exist for years. My expectation is that it released with a shit screen so they could normalize that price point and then sell a + version in a year for another $150.
You're already being kidnapped and potentially sent to an out of country prison with no hearing. There is no downside under these parameters.
I wrote my congresswoman and told her she lost my vote over this.
He and his friends should do something about that.
This is the reason I used being left handed as the example. We got over it.
Teaching children how to make weapons is the recipe for revolution. Its not instant, but its something i would think twice about as an autocrat. Its like training a bunch of Unibombers.
Not really. Not taking them into account isn't really discrimination. In the same way that there are many really awesome outfits made for children that they dont make for adults and we dont call it discrimination when they arent sized for everyone.
No first world country is going out of its way to make life harder for left handed people. There are shitty people everywhere though.
I wish it were because being any flavor of LGBTQ+ were as mundane and accepted as being left handed and didn't warrant a month of special attention... but I know its because most of these companies didn't really care to begin with, and that rainbow capitalism was just overwhelmed by a hostile and violent political movement in the US.
What's a little extra disappointing, is how much of that seems to have only existed for the sake of the US market to begin with. I would have preferred to see us isolated like a theocratic regime and only have the marketing changed for us. At least then I could say its because they see us sliding backwards and are reacting to that. Instead it becomes more obvious it was purely a 100% commercial.
I kinda always knew it... but its still sad to have it confirmed.
I didn't even get to take off yesterday. Fuck this guy.
I actually no longer trust that to be true with how many systems and programs were gutted. I suspect we probably dismantled our early warning systems.
If thats not the case, I still question whether or not this administration would let a blue state get hit when they could prevent it just out of spite.
I work with special needs adults. Your experiences, while valid, with many of those that arent so disabled that they actually can engage with society, do not represent those with more extreme versions of this disability.
Often they will never get to experience the fullness of life they could without. Basically, people with Downs who dont have caretakers with means are fucked pretty hard.
Of the 6 I interact with daily, I think they all would rather not have the disability, and 2 have said they would trade places with the guy in the wheel chair that has seizures sometimes, but is otherwise living a normal life.
Apple shouldn't support tyrants if they want sympathy. It's not likenirs a franchise.
If AI takes all the jobs and there's no universal basic income, everyone's new job becomes "freedom fighter"/"terrorist" depending on your leanings.
I've noticed that every product I've bought in the past year with a zip-lock seal is destroyed with common use. I actually think the zip-lock itself has gotten stronger. The bag rips before the seal opens on half the bags now and whenever I try to opens bags I had no issues with before, I find myself stretching/warping the plastic before the seal eventually opens.
It's pretty frustrating and I am seeing it across many products. Cheese bags, storage bags, snacks etc...
