It would be very rare not to do so.

Most poll results give the margins of error of the method(s) used. No idea if this one did or not, but 2% and 3% don’t seem dramatic enough to not be explicable by margin of error issues.

Would put some of that down to people making errors with checkboxes, comprehension issues & trolling.

But yeah, some people just like conviction regardless of their thoughts on a case.

Easy to let despondence & cynicism override reality, but if it were true that voting does nothing, nobody would put such effort into discouraging us from voting; into confusing us so much that we disengage.

Standing in line to tick may feel too tiny to count, but everything counts, from the mysterious interactions of subatomic particles to your most basic civic interaction with the rest of your nation (voting).

The few that might like the idea are too lacking in power to attempt, and in any case are easy for a flight between Israel & the US to avoid. Can’t even see any of them denying access to their airspace.

He’d also unlikely to be travelling via a regular commercial passenger flight, as Navalny was.

If conditions cannot be guaranteed, the court can uphold his appeal and deny the order.

Whether or not that ruling would in turn be appealed by the US DoJ to the UK Supreme Court is moot. Ditto chance of success if it is. Between impinging on the right to freedom of expression & the horrors of the US penal system, extradition is likely illegal under UK human rights law.

Here’s hoping they prevail & that they inspire others either way.

Do like the slogan on that banner.

That likely explains things. Thank you! Am here via Memmy.

Cheers. That worked. What a spooky coincidence! Can’t think why it would have been blocked.

The word it translates to is not visible for me in your comment.

Could be that it got censored out somehow - there’s a double space between “as” and “which”.

It is also a natural thing to think of, and easy for anyone over the age of 7 or 8 to figure out how to do it effectively.

Slightly unclear from the change in word order, but is this a variety of garlic which happens to have a distinct honey flavour, a honey infused with fermented garlic, or a fermented blend of honey & garlic?

I haven’t, though garlic is rather sweet anyhow, so can imagine how it might be.

In reality it would just be chickpeas and tahini, with the garlic, lemon juice and salt omitted.

Then one could add honey to make it sweet, and maybe cinnamon, vanilla or nutmeg.

End result would be a bit like a soft, spreadable halva.

It has always filled me with a kind of dread & nausea when I hear of the internet mob savaging a person, no matter my view of whatever has people riled up into full attack mode.

Determined to follow Bubba’s example of having great love & forgiveness for everyone, even as am a sobbing, mess at this story and yet again devastated at the knowledge of all the dangerous vitriol out in the world. I wish so much that persecutors could glimpse a moment of what it is to love & be relieved of their hatreds.

They’re likely going along with it on the basis that they no longer care about downballot races, or even the main race, intending instead for Trump to seize power & install loyalists by force.

I don’t see their plan working, but there’ll still be considerable chaos & violence during the attempt.

Trying to hope this will galvanise workers in Kentucky into unionising at last, but suspect it won’t, and that Republican strategists are primed to roll out all the usual tactics to discourage it.

CNN is covering it this evening, along with some of his other recent announcements (which amount to rounding up his political enemies & millions more besides), but infuriatingly still downplaying what his vision entails, nor how popular that is with Republican voters.

You know which one.

Arrange a transfer from Russian branch to Armenian branch, withdraw money, close account.

Or just a plain withdrawal if you already have an account with them in Russia, and other banks are refusing your business.

Probably just people who can’t get less risky accounts, or who are hoping to get money out of Russia.
