I hear you, but this is subjective and not objective. A bad faith actor, presumably an authoritarian government, can exploit laws like this to advance their agenda. “Yes, I was definitely convinced that was George HW Bush”.
Subjective judgements are ripe for abuse of power, sadly.
It’s a slippery slope from something that is otherwise well intentioned.
Define what a deep fake is over a parody or other political commentary.
I’m with you in your frustration, but this only furthers a class of elites being eligible to govern. The test needs to be at a level that anyone going through compulsory education could pass. Eg 8th grade.
Additionally, I would do the test at candidate registration. There is no pass fail, but the electorate can decide if they’re qualified enough (as it’s the right of the electorate).
Maybe it doesn’t fix it fully but we can directly point to who is a moron, and who voted for said morons.
I’ll offer a near miss.
Chat amongst colleagues over a coffee, the topic was something very normal and mundane: how lazy are we about cooking.
My colleague Carol said, “sometimes I just throw some chicken nuggets in the toaster because I don’t care or have the energy”
My response I intercepted between the brain and mouth: “living the bachelor lifestyle, carol?”
Carol’s husband had died quite suddenly 6 months prior. I didn’t fuck up, but I almost did and it haunts me still over a decade later.
My situation is I have an ability to recall a lot of really old information and some of it seemingly mundane. I can also synthesize all this together to make a good decision quickly.
This is basically what learning is, but it’s a broader base I can pull from and the process is just faster.
I don’t do well with forcing specific information to be cataloged. This means I wasn’t a great student in classes where you needed to just remember things (eg history).
The other thing I’ve got going for me is being able to visually see things in my head. It might be memories, but it’s also things for solving problems like this https://www.intelligencetest.com/questions/visualization/medium/3/8.html
I’m gonna fuck a waffle, marry pancakes, and kill french toast.
Like who even invited french toast to breakfast.
Yeah it’s really there to guide how fucked up it can be and not really be mega prescriptive. It’s not like quantities are on there, either.
Ideally a fire department shows up, sees the signs and then gets in contact with the building owner to start being more specific about what’s ahead of them before they just start dumping a ton of water on the building.
Section 4.2.3.3 of NFPA 704 guides how to handle multiple chemicals.
You can combine the worst of each category into a composite, list each individually, or do a hybrid option.
The posts saying there are two chemicals are true but likely incomplete… There are probably several different chemicals and they decided to go with the hybrid method.
My guess is that they combined the worst rating of everything that doesn’t need special handling, and have a stand alone for the chemical that is incompatible with water (or even combined for several chemicals that are incompatible with water).
See you in 2032
Only two of what you mentioned are American brands, which is probably pretty relevant for a Senator to consider.
Nobody buys less stuff with a single day boycotts. They just shifted their purchases before or after.
All of the labels in these stores are e-ink displays.
Further, there actually are shelves with American goods, but surprisingly, goods that come from outside the EU are not limited to the US…
To also explain a part of the American tax system… people who are super excited to get a ton of money back on their taxes via refunds are complete idiots.
That’s a direct function of paying too much withholding and not calibrating against their relevant deductions. Some of these people also feel that their tax burden has gone up if their refund is smaller from one year to the next, which may or may not be accurate.

Easily my favorite show of the last 5 years
This was pretty solid! I started it expecting it to be background noise while I doom scrolled… But I got absolutely hooked
And how does it look when he fires the guy investigating his son? That’s the same shit we derided trump for doing… tinkering with the Justice Department which has long operated with a high degree of independence for exactly these reasons.
No win situation for Biden, who assumed he would get another term in office. Don’t pretend it isn’t anything but.
And as an English expression for when you have a penchant for dropping things: “I have two left hands”
Discussions on retaining ISK over the euro are not based on how difficult it is to swap the currency or change systems that use cash.
It’s about retaining control over monetary policy, which is centrally decided in the eurozone.
Imagine a primary with AOC, Pete Buttegieg, and maybe a third younger candidate…
All could be really exciting to see advance, but they’ll split the vote and open the way for some stupid fucking corpse to win.
I hate this system.
