Not really defending our horrid rail system here, but there is a massive amount of rail line missing from the US map. I work in logistics, I do a lot of rail related work.

Here's what I think. There should be 11 of them, and on an 11 year cycle they should be directly elected by the people 1 per year, 11 year term, 1 term limit. They should be selected from a pool that is made up of high level judges in the country, and the members of that pool who decide to run for the position need to pass some sort of test by an independent board of constitutional scholars.

As the Supreme Court makes rulings, rulings that allow or affirm a right or action should be set in stone and no longer challengeable unless the entire panel of 11 judges unanimously decide that the issue needs to be reheard.

Something like this anyway, I'm sure there is more to consider but this is the general idea that I think would work.

Suppressed weapons. Shit is still loud, anyone anywhere near it will hear it. Also, when a bullet hits a person or any other surface the impact sound is loud as well.

Hitting people with beer bottles. You take a beer bottle to the head and you're probably done for.

Haha hard to say, I'd hope they finish it before I'm dead but there's no guarantee there. I think they've made a lot of good progress lately though, I'm hoping that trend continues.

Lots of sweet overnight oats comments in here. Give savory overnight oats a try! 3/4 cup oats, 3/4 cup chicken broth/bone broth/etc. Throw some chili crisp in with some green onions, maybe even a fried egg. Can't go wrong.

Ooh I'm jealous you get to watch this movie for the first time.

There have been a ton of studies over the last several years that show that venting doesn't work, and can sometimes even make things worse. Not trying to invalidate your own experience, but this probably isn't the best advice for everyone.

This one definitely drives me nuts, but these days I don't see how else to keep systems safe. It would be nice and probably be pretty effective if you could just prove to your IT team that you're not a moron to get reduced restrictions though. Most people I imagine would fail or not even make the effort, so you could be reasonably sure the risk was minimized this way.

He's about to join his buddy holding his spear like that lol.
