So injecting an artificial dye into the human body can have deliterious effects! Who'd have thunk it?

Luckily - other than with criminals - covering yourself in naff tats seems to have been a millennial fad that is slowly fading. I guess they still wanted to look tough (failed) while sipping their skinny latte frappucino with whipped cream.

Gen-Z seem to be a bit body smarter.

I know, it is true, the front lines have 50+ year olds, no doubt. Ukraine hasn't dipped into the pool yonger than 25 yet, this is the conscription age while orcs have sent 18 year olds to die for their tsar already. Ukraine also allowed 18 to 22 year old males to exit the country, over 45 thousand left to Poland. None of this changes what I said.

You libs crack me up. Hillary Clinton and John Kerry each spent four years pretending like showy diplomacy with Putin was an adequate substitute for demonstrating military strength and the will to employ it. Now that he's Trump's problem, y'all pretend like you've always seen him for unadulterated pure evil...the solution to which isn't deterrence by military strength but more performance theatre.

cities and counties have been burdened with the costs of treating diseases that stem from the companies' products

Coca cola, Frito-Lay, and the Monsanto Corporation did not force San Francisco to give out free stuff to homeless people. San Francisco voters did that.

Perhaps blue cities can get out from under the weight of their bullshit policies by suing their own voters?

He may not have been aware that the keys were compromised until they were misused. It's not like the keys are a physical object where a person can notice that they've been taken. Most of the people who are performing targeted attacks to gain this kind of access don't go around doing stupid things to alert someone that their machine has been compromised. I even recall an article from a few years ago where it was discovered that a malware program was also acting as an anti-virus to keep other things from infecting the machines and tipping off the users. This isn't the 90's or early 00's where people would immediately deface a website or pull some other crude prank upon gaining access.
