I have a few opinions as a stupid USA dweller.

1. People in this country treat traffic laws like suggestions and a shocking number of road users constantly drive distracted and/or drunk. As a result we have something like 10,000 deaths a year from vehicle accidents. That number used to be lower but it has gone back up as smartphone use has increased.
2. Most of these deaths would be preventable if we didn't live in such a sick, selfish culture. We collectively just accept that it happens because it would be inconvenient to fix. Things like mandating more driver training or physically safer road design or building robust public transit just...do not happen for quite a few reasons.
3. I think traffic enforcement shouldn't be done by police because they can't be trusted to not assault or kill people
4. I think that the punishment for minor road infractions should be a timeout. You ran a stop sign? You get to sit in timeout for a while. This would piss off both the poor and the rich equally.

edit: on that note, 5: stop signs are stupid and bad and almost all of them should be replaced by roundabouts.

AI image generation is a bourgeois product designed to kill artists by starvation. Stop using it.

Time to wear a mask, grab a bagful, and skip the self-checkout entirely.

Here in the US, they won't stop you and wearing a mask defeats any facial recognition software.

He is an incredibly funny unintentional comedian

edit: I am not a fan. I think people are drawn to him because he's funny but he's not helpful

The FBI started as an extrajudicial hit squad to murder folk-hero bank robbers and the creator/first director was a deeply fucked-up man who used the Bureau to hunt down homosexuals because he was one and hated himself so much. It has never been a morally upright organization.

Reddit is just packed full of gross men like this

How very liberal to name a regulation act this, and not a bill to exterminate private health insurance companies

Could also be an attempt to get Trump's attention given the pressure on universities that's happening
