This is more like Belgian politics than actual Belgian politics.

Looks like a very Belgian poll.

Indeed.

Local elections in Belgium today. In the Flemish part it's no longer mandatory to vote so turnout is low.

Hope this time I got the pictures right

EDIT: damn, seems I'm real bad at creating polls

Today is local elections day in Belgium. In the Flemish part voting is no longer mandatory so turnout is predictable low.

The capitalist boot is more stylish and trendy though.

And they sell it to you first.

Tesla had a show where they presented the "cybercab", a "robovan" (a bus) and their humanoid robot, working as a barkeeper serving beer. The first two seemed impractical and with timelines that put them way behind Waymo or Baidu. Musk started talking about this in 2016, timeline now is 2027, but could be later.
The robot was apparently again controlled by humans.

Musk sells Tesla as a AI and robotics company that also makes cars (and solar/energy systems), but right now cars are 95% of the revenue. For a traditional car company their product pipeline looks very dire. Semi, roadster, cybertruck are niche, their other models are fairly old by now.

Apparently the fact that California hasn't had an Earthquake lately is proof that the Democrats control the weather.

I missed the old days when it was just sex scandals and such.

Every communist fanboy: that wasn't real communism! 

I mean it wasn't. In real communism there is no state and we will live in an anarchist utopia.

But, of course, that is about as realistic as Santa Claus being a solution to world hunger.

But he is far more likely to stand up to Iran and to stand down the Hamas infiltrators that have taken root like a cancer in the United States and the West in general.

Not to be hyperbolic or anything.
