“Huh, we just can’t seem to connect with the yonges. Clearly it’s because we don’t use TikTok enough and don’t get their slang”

No, it’s because the platforms you keep running people on are totally divorced from the interests of the constituencies you want to mobilize, and party leadership continuously torpedoes policy that is actually popular. Communicating a platform perfectly, getting the message seen by every potential voter, won’t do a thing if they don’t want what you’re promising.

Not sidelining and running hit pieces against your most energizing grassroots candidates, then trying to substitute hand picked party insiders for them would be a good start. You can win elections or you can enforce party orthodoxy, not both.

Would Tails go in cool and good or schizo?

She’s got a lot of good stuff about US farming in general. A lot of discussions about the issues in modern farming from the perspective of someone actually working in that space and not towing the normal line.

Not always. Black pepper contains Piperine which also effects the TRPV1 sensing protein like capsaicin, if a bit weaker. Horseradish, mustard and wasabi have Allyl isothiocyanate which affects TRPV1 but also TRPA1 which triggers pain cold and itching response, leading to coughing and tearing.

There are a fair amount of other compounds that effect the TRPV1 and plenty of other similar receptors.

Yes, this is why pepper spray sucks even if it doesn’t get in your mouth.

Spicy isn’t a taste or a smell, it is a sensation caused by the compounds lowering the threshold to activate of heat detecting nerves too below the ambient temperature of the human body. It’s basically making you burn your self.

Lots of other “flavors” are also like this, lowering the threshold of firing for certain sensory nerves. Sichuan pepper for instance, it lowers the threshold for movement sensing, causing the bizarre tingle waving sensation.

Those heat sensing compounds exist all over your body, not just in your mouth.

IT KEEPS HAPPENING!

Come on people if you find century old ordnance in your back yard, make sure it has a flared base!

Stick with mortar rounds, not shells for infantry support guns or artillery!

The described size of the shell is interesting. “Over 3 centimeters” sounds like it could be a 3.7cm shell which were fairly common in WW1 but, none of those were “20 cm long” most being closer to 10 cm, such as the the 37mm mle.1916, the 1 pounder pom pom and the 3.7 cm TAK 1918.

Later ww2 3.7mm shells were often close to 20cm in length though.

What I see when I watch the video, is someone trying to drive away, the ice agent attempting to open the door of a moving vehicle to pull them out, and then firing on the drive when they can’t open the door.

It’s not self defense, it’s a use of lethal force against a citizen attempting to disengage from a confrontation with a government official that lacks the authority to arrest them.

Motorcycle is a broad category, most e-bikes fit under it. The defining characteristics is a motor vehicle steered by handlebar from a saddle style seat.

They don’t have to be loud, but many drivers intentionally choose to make them loud. This comes down to a cultural issue, more about that later. Arguably most sports cars are much more obnoxious.

The accident rate and danger tends to come down more to cars than to motorcycles them selves. Most deadly motorcycle accidents are collisions with cars, and most of those are deemed the fault of the car driver. They’re also unreasonably fast for the form factor, again, because they have to mingle with cars, particularly on the highway.

Motorcycles are held to the same emission standards as cars, unless it’s not a road legal vehicle like a dirt bike, or not fast/powerful enough to require a license, like a moped. And they’re generally way more fuel efficient than cars due to being physically smaller, most getting between 70 to 90 MPG. Even Harley’s, intentionally outdated and inefficient designs, get 45MPG better than most cars.

Most can fit 2 people, which is more than most cars tend to have in them at any given time, and with pannier bags they can carry more than most cars will carry on a day to day basis, with most people never carrying cargo in their car beyond a few grocery bags.

They’re statistically much less dangerous to pedestrians than cars. I have no idea where you got the idea they’re more dangerous to pedestrians from.

They’re generally actually much easier to maintain than a car being smaller and less mechanically complex. The reason that so many motorcyclists tend to spend a lot of time maintain them is because they’re doing more of it them selves rather than taking it to a dealership or a mechanic.

There is absolutely a cultural issue among motorcyclists, but much of that comes down to how often they’re nearly killed by inattentive drivers. Constantly being put in danger by car drivers not paying attention tends to make people a bit hostile to car drivers. Much of the rest comes down to the fact that such a risky activity tends to attract people who are in to it to seem “cool”, which will attract some shitty people.
