Most people don't even now what a dark-eyed junco is nowadays, the numbers have dropped dramatically.

That explosion isn't real, it's not actually filmed at night, actors didn't really get shot, isn't filmed in real time.

If you have to start editing the movie yourself, to make it watchable, some story teller isn't doing their job. I guess we're at the Ikea point of 'movies', some assembly required.

Who watches movies anymore? Costs a fortune, theater is dirty, people are annoying, food is overpriced, show times are inconvenient, ...

At home you can just choose another movie to watch, pick another video.

'start over from scratch' is not an option. Many of the other ideas that the left has for reforming the police, such as extra training for soft skills, don't really work. I just don't hear any good ideas. That's the issue, the left really doesn't put out a comprehensive plan for policing communities that needs it.

I think the argument is, if the left abandons law and order, the right will fill the vacuum with authoritarianism. I believe this.

We are not going to de-fund the police. In Ontario the right wing Ford government has reduced the educational requirements of people entering the police force, this is a blatant attempt to keep the police racist and sexist. The left leaning parties have no interest or plans on how to recruit or train the police. The vacuum, means that right wing parties push to get what they want, an authoritarian police force.

Seriously, this is why modern cars suck, and cost a fortune.
