The US still promotes dictatorships around the world, and in Latin America specifically, while claiming to promote democracy. There isn't even that much democracy at home.

The narcissist's prayer definitely applies to the country that elected Trump, as it does to Trump himself.

In some games storyline matters, in others... not so much. Games with a storyline trend to be less replayable in my experience. One exception I can think of is This War of Mine, that game is really depressing.

Also Terraria is a lot of fun and more replayable than most $70 games.

I like what someone else mentioned of bikes doing the last mile or two. Vans could do the last 20 miles or whatever, and bigger trucks or trains the long haul.

I would also not put vans and box trucks (not that you did, I'm speaking in general) in the same bag, a van is almost the same as a car when it comes to driving.

And of course if we could lower the demands on delivery drivers (and riders? Not sure what you call them on bikes) it would lower accidents. I recently saw one of the new Amazon electric vans, and while I liked some things (no air or sound pollution), the driver was accelerating like crazy every time.

Exactly, this post completely misses the point. The human in a delivery van is not even desirable. It would be great to completely automate this job. Let people enjoy their lives more instead of peeing in a bottle.

This is not redneck engineering, it's how evening is attached to walls in the US as far as I can see. An ugly hole in drywall, and cover the rough edges with trim. I'm not sure what else you are looking for.

Something outside the wall could use minimal wood working and nails or command strips.

You mention you like picture frame mounts, so why don't you use picture frames? You can get some used stuff for very cheap at Goodwill. Or get wood trim at home depot and cut to size.

Anything that's not visible gets the glue gun treatment.

A lot of those are condos where you get cable and Internet bundles together, and you don't even have a choice. Others might be getting a bundle but only using the Internet side. I was sick with the first for years.

I found this video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4838DPW9ETo&pp=ygUQY3ViYW5vcyBlbiBydXNpYQ%3D%3D

And they claim they were told they would rebuild cities destroyed in the war, but not take part in it. So they were expecting to go to Ukraine, just not as soldiers.

I don't have a lot of trust in any of the parties involved in this, I'm just reporting it.

Immigration is complicated, and you are thinking only of "legal" immigration. It is extremely common for people to ignore those laws. And a job is not always required, no.

You (generic you) don't need to really emigrate to a country to receive treatment, you could go with a tourist visa or visa free and get treated, then go back to the shitty country without universal healthcare where you live.

In my home country everyone has access to healthcare because it's a human right, so by law it doesn't matter what your immigration status is, you will get care. This includes cancer treatment, for free.

You don't have to be rich, it takes a couple thousand dollars, the problem is to not become homeless afterwards...

I mean, that is not how it works. Also, crocodiles don't look like any dinosaur I can think of?

Classification is based on genetic relationships, not looks, so bats aren't birds, for example.
