    The choices of how crimes are handled are best handled at the local level. The people living in the same places as the victims and perpetrators know best how to deal with each instance. Once you absolve that power to a police force people stop taking personal responsibility for their wellbeing and that of their community. The loss of sense of community is the worst thing that can happen for stopping crime.

    Okay, now imagine living in a majority MAGA city. They have a great sense of community and have determined that you are a threat. Specific reasons don’t matter, they know best though.

    The closest I’ve come in actual conversation is when someone has a habit of bringing up horrible things from their life or past on the most tenuous of connections. I don’t want your depression to depress me, I’m sorry.

    I don’t really see how bringing up the possibility of elections being cancelled is more of a downer than planning on voting for whoever is willing to “prosecute the [current] regime at every level”. The whole point is that the Republicans have genuinely, actually, for real turned fascist. That’s horrifying and depressing on its own and I don’t think it’s out of line to at least assume that they would absolutely cancel/rig the elections if they think they can get away with it. Because that’s what fascists do.

    Es schmeckt deutlich anders als “normales” Mineralwasser. Mal zum Vergleich mit einem Allerweltsmineralwasser, in Milligramm pro Liter:

    • Calcium: 47 gegen 348
    • Hydrogencarbonat: 175 gegen 1816
    • Magnesium: 5 gegen 108
    • Natrium: 15 gegen 118
    • Sulfat: 10 gegen 38

    Laut deren Website deckt ein Liter Gerolsteiner damit ca. 1/4 des täglichen Magnesium- und sogar 1/3 des täglichen Calciumbedarfs. Und das mögen die meisten Leute halt nicht (schließe mich da ein), vor allem wenn sie es nicht erwarten.
