Indeed, they're just too status quo.

"The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born; now is the time of monsters." ~Antonio Gramsci

I think this captures the state of the world pretty well. The traditional values, the leaders of the world order as we know it are decaying. Nobody has any idea where things are headed. In the meantime all kind of figures crawl from under their rock to party and grab whatever they can

Depends on the strain, but up to 75% of birds die from it. But once you have one sick chicken, it spreads rapidly to ask others and very often to neighbors a few miles away by wild animals. To keep it from spreading quickly over the entire country, every chicken within a few miles is culled as standard practice if bird flu is found.

Yes, as is already happening with police crime prediction AI. In goes data that says there is more violence in black areas, so they have a reason to police those areas more, tension rises and more violence happens. In the end it's an advanced excuse to harass the people there.

And they you have the real "I'm here to work" truck. Either that or they have a van. Sometimes you see a pickup truck here, but they're always used by the bosses and inspection.

The answer to that is giving Ukraine more and more support, weapons and material until Putin changed his tune. Or you play the sniveling coward and start negotiating these earnestly. We all know what path Donnie boy will take.

And that's why they slapped the juniors in the mine until they learned to keep the light out of other people's faces.

That didn't sound like the best idea ever for someone using jets so often. That could blow up in his face.
