An invitation for a free lunch that turned out to be a multi level marketing presentation for timeshares.

Less dependence on a US dollar weakened by faster inflation. Fewer foreign investments in the US. Nations less willing to host US bases, building up their own military instead. Less of a coordinated effort to fight contagious diseases or provide aid during disasters. The internet fragments, com domains become less popular for exchanging ideas and commerce.

For government organizations and websites they will defund resources, delete published data, and forbid terminology from being mentioned. Funding for research programs will be cut.

For social media websites they may try isolate groups by forbidding topics and moderation.

There will disturbing press announcements every few days. If there is no public outrage they will keep taking it further.

Markets will get further deregulation, maybe some scheme to tank it and issue another stimulus followed by inflation.

States and cities with strong protections in place will push back. Other places will see people emboldened by their rhetoric to take it out on others.

Same. It was the only time that relatives could attend. My mother was brought there many years ago, and there was a sense of closure to bring my father to rest with her.

Cook on lowest heat. Check in 20 minutes. If dry, add water. If watery, drain the excess or continue cooking into porridge.

So many synth timbers, not repetitive, and still holds a connection with dance floor nostalgia

There's an urban legend about animators at Pixar pranking Listerine executives while making a commercial. They filled one of the bottles with apple juice and made $20 bets to drink it. Supposedly one of the reps watching it being chugged went running for the bathroom to throw up.
