USA Women Shouldn't Be Allowed to Vote? Hegseth's Video Sparks Fury!
You're right about one thing. It was obvious that there would be two basic points of view: 1) The idea held by rational people that there is no valid reason to exclude +/-50% of the population from voting simply by virtue of their gender 2) the irrational remainder. Actually, you are (partially) right about one other thing. It was highly unlikely that I would be able to avoid criticising those who fall into the second camp. Usually, initially at least, I try to give a reasoned counter-argument if I disagree with something. In this case, a sarcastic comment was the most appropriate response to the nonsense being spouted. It's sad to think that sad, old misogynists such as yourself still exist in the 21st century. -

Goldman Sachs: Americans will bear two-thirds of tarrif costs
No amount of "alternative facts" will change reality, the reality being that tariffs are a huge tax increase for the average American. But hey, someone's gotta pay for the tax breaks the rich will get, and we all know it's not gonna be Mexico.😄 Goldman Sachs doubles down on tariff research that infuriated Trump, saying average Americans will bear two-thirds of the costs https://archive.ph/WCxMH "Goldman’s latest report, published on Sunday, maintains that while U.S. businesses have so far shouldered most of the financial pain from tariffs, the share picked up by everyday Americans is set to rise sharply. As of June, consumers had absorbed 22% of total tariff costs, Hatzius calculated, adding the number is projected to leap to 67% by October if the pattern seen in early rounds of Trump’s trade actions continues. Goldman economists forecast the core personal consumption expenditures (PCE) inflation gauge will surge to 3.2% by the end of the year if tariffs remain in place, with about 0.7 percentage points of that attributable directly to the tariff regime—substantially above the underlying trend inflation of 2.4%." -

Over-70s face driving ban in UK
I'm over 70 living in the UK and I agree with it though it should be for everyone not just over 70's the old condition of being able to read a number plate at a certain distance is outdated. I feel there should be a new test for over 80's regarding cognitive ability and reaction times. They are also considering banning newly qualified drivers from carrying passengers that I don't agreee with what I would suggest is all new drivers should be limited to a speed restriction which heavy penalties for exceeding them do it twice and automatic loss of licence and need to start again take a new test to get a new licence. Speed is the main reason for new drivers getting into trouble experience comes with time. -

Thailand becoming the New Taiwan: Riders on the Storm
There were plastic "adapters" that would fit over the spindle on the 33/3 record players, so that we could play 45s. Yes, you are correct. However, we never used them after the LPs were introduced. I still recall the 78s. Those were the ones that would shatter when dropped on the floor. Once had a slew of lousy classical 78s. But, that was before I discovered JS Bach. -
