Bike poggies are worth looking into to keep your hands warm. Studded tires can help with slipping too

Trees can explode actually 😅 Eucalyptus and Aspen trees are know to explode during bush fires.
They don't explode unbidden like you might assume given Trump's comment. He seems to do this a lot; he talks about something real, in a way that demonstrates he's garbage at communicating anything even remotely technical.
The real solutions is of course tending our forests to ensure there's not enough combustible material to cause dangerous fires. More resources for the forest service is essential. It makes me wonder if these gaffs are far more effective at directing our attention away from the substance of the problem with Trump
Most taxes on asset sale is based on profit, subtracting the bought price from the sold price. Given the wording the tax would be on the sale price, not the profit.
Lower Decks was my first star trek show. I've been enjoying The Next Generation so far. The first season was pretty bad. The second season was pretty good. The third season has been real good
Hard cases make bad law. Make sure the Nazi's rights weren't infringed 😬
I'm a lot less likely to report a crime after the George Floyd murder. Granted violent crime, like murder, tends to get reported regardless of a person's personal feelings about police, and reported murders are down
Mexico is a bad example IMO. The Zapatistas are right there. That's a pretty significant bit of territory the Mexican State has very little control over.

The US has, through concerted effort by the right wing, forgotten why FDR came into power. He was the heir of an extremely rich family. He managed to convince enough of the other oligarchs to avert going the way of the USSR. The US had revolutionary potential or the powerful would not have let this happen.
The policies that resulted from FDR's presidency had an enormous effect on the US's populace. It completely changed what the average American expected from their government. The politics of the Democrats, and even the Republican, president's that followed reflected the change that FDR's policies wrought.
It took 40 years of concerted media, intellectual, and religious capture for the right to regain anything resembling the political ascendancy they saw before the 1930s.
I think all bigotry can be used as a wedge to divide working people from their own interests. I wouldn't be surprised if Romani bigotry was used to control Europeans in the past. However, I think immigration is the most important wedge in the European context
