Isn’t the American dream intended to feed the capitalists in charge? This would fit right in with the plan.

that he was such an auteur that he would only do it if he could film on location

I came here to say this. Brilliant.

What a fucking backwater of a country. Remember also that India has so many rapes that if the news reported on every single one, you’d never hear about anything else.

For me, a better analogy is pyrite (commonly known as fool’s gold).

It appears to be gold, but is in fact cheap iron sulphide. It is sometimes found in association with small amounts of gold, similar to some of those people that tend to come out of the woodwork when we complain about shitty work conditions, saying, “well I have a nice paying job”.

Same way as living in a cramped <300 sqft studio is better than being homeless.

All I keep reading is the failure of capitalism at the end of the day.

Domestic solar panel production is lagging and cheaper shit from China is gonna make it worse

Isn’t this the point of the free market? Shouldn’t capitalists rejoice when things are working as intended?

Don’t forget, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen was just in China to protect US interests - this time because China has flooded the market with cheap solar panels.

We can’t have solar power becoming affordable and accessible for most people.

They have been doing this for a while now. Remember the flour massacre?

Note that Israel will be banning Al Jazeera because they are perceived to be a threat to security.

Certainly, airing videos showing Israelis in a bad light is indeed a threat to their security. You know, people may doubt their intentions.

In this context I believe it was short for simpleton.

The scene they were filming involved him pointing the gun at the camera. The person who got shot was standing behind the camera.

Alec Baldwin claims he did not pull the trigger, and this was corroborated by the assistant director on set.

The scene involved Baldwin’s character removing a gun from its holster and pointing it toward the camera. The trio behind the monitor were two feet (0.6 m) from the muzzle of the firearm and none of them were wearing protective gear such as noise-canceling headphones or safety goggles.

The trio behind the monitor began repositioning the camera to remove a shadow, and Baldwin began explaining to the crew how he planned to draw the firearm. He said, “So, I guess I’m gonna take this out, pull it, and go, ‘Bang!’” When he removed it from the holster, the revolver discharged a single time.

Halls was quoted by his attorney Lisa Torraco as saying that Baldwin did not pull the trigger, and that Baldwin’s finger was never within the trigger guard during the incident.

This would be David Halls, the assistant director.

Public scapegoat.

Edit: Alec Baldwin is a known Democrat and caricatured Donald Trump famously on SNL. This is clearly a hit job on him because of his stance.

I swap out my all season tires for winter tires when the weather changes.

The pearl industry hates this one trick

Really good use of our tax dollars.

I was going to say this is a better controller than the OG submarine.

I’m not too sure how many independents will be able to afford dumping a quarter of a million to replace all their projector screens

Don’t worry, thanks to this amazing thing called capitalism a big chain will happily buy out those struggling independents at a fraction of their actual worth.

I live in Canada. Our leader of the opposition is a crypto bro. He is currently leading in all polls (mainly because our current PM is unpopular and not because of anything insightful that the opposition has done).

Wonder whose job it is to milk Santa
