So what the fuck does the Pentagon sticking it's nose in the abortion business mean for everyone?
Nothing

It's just the people at the top trying to show their loyalty to the regime. Officer promotions are very political to start and especially when it comes to General officers, the Biden admin has simply made it very clear what line must be toed to get promoted.
 
Reminder that the new California gov’t destroyed nearly every reservoir in the state “for the sake of the environment“. It was once a really good idea to grow those crops, because they once had the infrastructure to support it. They elected children to run the state.
California is owned by all these weird, counterproductive groups. They have like, Big Nut Mafia out in California. The state government bends over and grabs its ankles for almond and pistachio kingpins every fucking year. "YES! WE'LL GIVE YOU EVEN MORE AND MORE LITERAL ACRES OF WATER!" and then tells the peons that haven't fled the state, "You can't water your lawns. You only get 90 second showers. You can only flush your toilet every other day." How did a top 20 world economy with 40 million people in it get pussywhipped by the pistachio industry? California is ridiculous.

Hopefully a bunch of red and purple states will provide incredibly onerous abortion restrictions or flat out bans while passing a bunch of legislation to turn themselves into 24/7/365, open air gun shows so that the freaks die in their containment zones.
 
The Japanese tend to be very syncretic in their practice, so they can follow both Shinto and Buddhism at the same time. "Shinto for the festivals, Buddhism for the afterlife" is a fairly common attitude, and Shintoism is more like highly-developed superstition and folklore than a philosophical religion in the Western sense.

I would add "Christianity for weddings" in the middle, as someone who is from a place where Japanese love to flock to for weddings.
 
There was a time when california was the promised land. And I mean for everyone. My mother grew up in that time.

It's very real problems have very real solutions but it doesn't want to evolve to be that.

As everyone knows biggest issue is the sheer population centers
It's legitimately maybe the best physical, geographical place on earth and it would thrive to full glory in no more than eighteen months if it wasn't constantly, vigorously fucked by every single person with even an ounce of state authority.
 
Idiots freaking out is hilarious.

So apparently birth control and IVF were also just banned. Somehow. Along with voting rights.

Also a bunch of these loons are sharing around "secret lists" of female doctors who will perform "emergency tubal ligations" because supposedly male doctors will now refuse to do it or something?

We're in a blue state where abortion remains, and will remain perfectly legal. Absolutely nothing has changed at all.
 
Can I just say I find it weird people actually live in Vegas? It just seems like a place that's so catered to tourists that I can't really imagine people living there and it being their home town
The people that staff the casinos have to live somewhere, and those people have needs as well. The Las Vegas Valley is dominated by the casinos, and between the Californication and lack of any kind of longevity the town is legitimately odd to grow up in. The casinos still dominateare the economy of that town though, and despite the lefty shift that Vegas brings to an otherwise rather conservative state there's a big reason you didn't see BLM even try to do anything there.

Everyone knows who is to blame for the disaster that is California, but Californians in the cities are far too smug to actually solve the problems.
 
Speaking of the California water problems, Lake Mead (responsible for supplying water to 20 million people in California, Nevada, and Arizona) is at 1,044 ft deep as of Wednesday. "Dead pool" status, where water can no longer flow downstream from the dam is reached at 895 ft. On June 9th, it was at 1,075 ft, a then historic low. It is expected to drop until November as water is pulled from it to water crops and supply people with water.

It dropped 31 feet in 2 weeks. Another 150 ft, and its dead. At current rates, thats 10 weeks. They need rain.

I said this in the SCOTUS thread, but I am guessing the Dems are going to use Military Bases as "abortion sanctuaries".

Because you know, this is a fantastic idea.

Well, we can change the weather if we all just pay more taxes to the government. So says the Climate Potato.

I also hear they want to use Indian reservations too, but the Indians aren't exactly going for it.

California will keep pulling water until the situation improves. What? You mean other people use that water? Bah! They can just use bottled water, right?

I saw that article posted here yeah, and I hope the Left Reacts in the exact way they always do the moment they get told no.

They need rain.
Maybe if they find god they will get rain.

Oh wait, they are gonna pass After Birth Abortion to spite the SCOTUS so....The Drought Continues.

The turbines are lower then that though, right? Been a while since I’ve been there and saw them. That’s a great engineering feat, but I don’t recall their depth.

I paused in posting this and googled it - 950 feet to stop the turbines.

Acre feet is the important measurement, not depth. There is 8 million acre feet between 1050' and 895'. On top of that, your numbers are wrong according to the Bureau of Reclamation. Elevation was at 1046.15(or 7.4 million AF) on the 9th.

e: Dead pool is somewhere around 2.2 million AF. Not sure if the USBR counts the dead pool volume or not. I'm used to USACE, and I know they do not include dead pool in reservoir storage.

e2: forgot the operative word again.
