IWW IU 520 (Railroad Workers) PRESENTS:

TROLLEY PROBLEM SOLUTION

"Slip the switch" by flipping it while the trolley's front wheels have passed through, but before the back wheels do. This will cause a controlled derailment bringing the trolley to a safe halt.

I found in a lot of places people are relieved to hear US English when they hear English.

Yeah, the fact that Urdu and Hindi speakers can speak with each other but can read each other’s writing is one of my favorite language facts.

Written, Farsi sorta looks like Arabic, I guess.

I mean, any vessel is a demining vessel if you're brave/stupid enough.

It's looking increasingly like these guys thought that if they could wreak more death and destruction than the other side then they would be respected as strong powerful men and they would "win" and that would make them big important heroes. Very possibly they had no rationale deeper than that.

No question.

Not that I ever liked the non-GMO labels on foods, but I REALLY dislike them now. We’re all living with the effects of unchecked medical woo stuff and it sucks, so I don’t want to give an inch to other types of woo.

Wow. Wasting money even for the DoD. That’s wild.

Is this one on corner of The Bowery and like 4th? Who needs that lot? It’s way more ugly than a building.

Yeah, I’ve also never heard a person from Louisiana sound like that. It’s so obviously affected.

Did he think of trying raw milk? Also I have so many thoughts against the ToS.

I mean I’m willing to compromise. Just the anesthesiologist from his roster of freaks.

I stand by my 2020 primary vote for her, and sending a check.

The side effects can be all over the place. For me I feel sick when I start them over (like if insurance is screwing me) but then it mostly mellows out. So they can also be good.

No one will ever beat β€œthis wallpaper goes or I do” as final words. (Or similar, everyone agrees he said something like this but not the wording)

Yeah I picked nearly 100% human, because you can tell because there is flavor. They have a style. Their diction is unique.

I don’t know if I could white knuckle that at flank of 25-30 knots. But perhaps I’m just not made to be a seaman.

I think no one, including the democrats are ready for what’s gonna happen in 2026. You’re seeing the left wining primaries and then democrats over performing by huge numbers. I think no amount of their using cheating is gonna save them. Let’s hope that starts the ball rolling the right way.

2p should pick protein. That’s gonna kill RFKJ via his kidneys.
