So the whole wiring on the bullets (or actually casings is just weird).

So majority people know (and especially someone who has and uses gun) that when you shoot, the bullet gets out and the caring stays in your gun.

So why would a shooter write "Hey, fascist! Catch" on the casing. There's no satisfaction that the text would penetrate the victim. In fact if he got successfully away no one would ever see that message. So was he intended to be caught?

2nd thing is that there seems to be lots of fakes of the picture, although I found one that looked like real. That bullet was never fired, so I guess they are going with what was found in his gun or ammo box, so how is that related to Kirk?

I also find it suspicious that nearly anyone they caught somehow all had writing on their bullets of some kind. The weirdest one was the "Anti-ICE" written with a marker by a guy who entered one office and actually only killed immigrants that were held there.

The economy is so screwed that this is basically the only sensible way to invest for the middle class. There are no other good way to invest savings unless you are multimillionaire/billionaire.

I'm talking about mom and pop landlords that still go to their regular jobs and likely themselves live in an apartment, not about apartments owned by big corporations.

In the past one would use savings to open a business, now it is much more prohibitive and also much higher risk that one of the monopolies will drive you out of business.

It's not about understanding critical thinking it is about thinking critically.

When you write an essay to compare and contrast, or pick a position about specific subject you know that you can't use your for feeling or use some random guy on Facebook you still have to back it up if you want to get a good grade. It doesn't even matter what your position is, as long as you do work. You know the teacher won't accept any bullshit. It purposefully is also given topic that you are unlikely to know about so you do that work.

This is what teaches you critical thinking skills, that you can apply in your life in the future for new things.

People who has others do this work for them or attended colleges that didn't do this got nice disservice done as it is much easier to lie to them.

Ok, I guess I'm missing the plot, but how posts like this one (I'm inside this ass example, I actually see a lot of other posts do it) matches "me in real life" format? Which one of the 5 people there are you?

Essay writing (for example exercises that you are arguing for one side vs the other) is major part how you learn critical thinking.

I suspect that the educated people who were anti vax during covid most likely paid others to write essays for them.

It isn't always binary (dead vs alive) you are more likely to slip, fall and become disabled. How does that fit the quantum immortality?

OS X has this, and I personally found it very useful, especially when I'm on call that wakes me in the middle of a night when I'm still drowsy and can't find where the cursor is.

Don't carry phone, don't carry smart watches, rings or other crap that uses Bluetooth.

Don't drive car, but if you must, at least disable Bluetooth service (there's an option, as that is another signal besides license plate that can be picked to by other people's cellphones)

People don't realize how much surveillance Google and Apple already created.

This is done on purpose, to make people to switch to their e-mail or use them for hosting.

Google did the same thing with XMPP (they were welcomed when they joined, then they made it so XMPP users couldn't message GTalk/Hangouts users, but the other way worked), they tried similar thing with Usenet, but they never get dominance there so they let their services to be major source of spam on Usenet until they were blocked, ultimately removing Usenet indexing from Google).

I would really encourage to contact our local reps (both federal as well as state) and encourage them to introduce legislation that would punish this practice.

With him it is actually a weird situation, because unlike other assholes, besides hurting others he is also hurting himself too.
