Yeah it's not the big "Gotcha!" people want it to be

There's always some funny little detail to learn though... It's pretty funny Trump has poor sound quality

I am shocked by how little eco-terrorism I hear about. Are people doing it? It seems like the only way at this point

Exactly. I disagree strongly with the sorority's decision, but can/should we compel individuals to hang out with people they don't want to hang out with?

If the group receives public money, it's a whole different situation

If I can make cheese good enough to pretend that it's another brand, I'm gonna just slap my own label on it

The article doesn't really make it clear. Why do these cost the platform money?

n China, the trains are awesome and pretty much everything else sucks hard.

Chinese train stations are a fucking nightmare compared to the rest of the world. First, they have a funneled entrance from the subway that goes through multiple choke points. For example, at Shanghai Hongqiao, you're in a mob of hundreds, forced to go up two long escalators.

Next, people there don't have freedom of travel, so there is a security check to actually enter the station, where they look at your papers and make sure you're approved for your destination. The queues are super long and people constantly cut in line. It's rage-inducing.

Then they subject you to a baggage check, metal detector, and frisking.

Now you're inside the station, but you can't just go to the platform. Instead, you wait at a secure gate until maybe ten minutes before scheduled departure. Again, it's a giant mob of people, trying to form a line in a station that's also just overcrowded. They finally open the gate and everyone rushes through and down to the platform.

You have to arrive an hour ahead of your train's departure else you're going to have a very stressful time.

I believe we will get no necessary reforms without threat of violence. The rich will absolutely shoot us, so we just be prepared to do the same
