CISA actually monitored Internet traffic and would contact government entities (local, schools, universities, etc) when they were being attacked. I went to a talk once where they said they usually had response times in minutes, and it would take longer to figure out who they needed to alert and convince them that it was real. Now that CISA is gutted I would expect more and worse breaches in the future.

It’s not cheaper to execute people with our current legal framework. After we get 30,000 people in Guantanamo bay and illegal immigration has become a crime punishable by death, things could change.

Birds dying to HPAI are very easy to catch too, so even the Garfield’s out there can be exposed. I had a red tailed hawk crash out in my backyard and it was dead 24 hours later. I put it into a box (after it crashed and didn’t move for 20 mins) but no rehab would take it, because there is nothing that can be done to help them.

There are cats and European starlings everywhere, extra cats will only hurt the situation. It would be basically impossible to remove starlings at a neighborhood level. Just plant more wild flowers and put up nest boxes starlings can’t use, or put up bird feeders if you really want to see other birds.

Ya, the incredibly wealthy used to build public infrastructure because they were taxed at like 90% and they thought they might as well make what they want and have it be a donation than let the gov take the money. Now they don’t build anything AND are taxes lower than everyone else.

Don’t worry, Elon Musk has a much better idea for a postal vehicle. All he needs is 10 years and 1 trillion dollars and he’ll be ready with the prototype.

I use one of those big metal paper choppers to cut doves tails.

I still don’t want it on my desk though.

I would think it would matter to Trump, whose main concern is what is airing on television and his image.

It seems pretty clear to me. “Hey look, we put your wife’s nude pictures across the country. It would be a shame if we did this with some other photos we have…”

Oh look, the blackmail is starting already. Good job everyone who voted for a completely compromised candidate.

This is not an exaggeration. They literally don’t care about the world because “we’re all going to heaven anyway.” I have relatives that have said as much.

FYI if you want to see what data they have try to sign up to get paid. Even if you have never voted they may have data on you.

No, they were just told they couldn’t participate in society.

Yes, when you pose a greater risk to society you do not get to participate in it. This has been true since the start of societies.
