And kill all the pets I assume.
I work with elderly people and have known quite a few that were sharp as ever well into their eighties, but when their minds go it happens extremely quickly. At the very least there needs to be mandatory cognitive tests to run and serve after a certain age.
I am hoping that the success of Zohran Mamdani is seen as a blueprint moving forward.

Unpayable debt accruing interest. What a fucking joke.
Democrats still have 23 governorships, control 37% of state legislatures, and 40% of state chambers. Six of the ten most populous states have 2 Democrat senators, three have Republican senators, and one is split. The house is split 219 Republican to 212 Democrat, but the Democrats represent a much larger portion of the population.
The point is, Democrats are far from being out of the game. Nobody else comes close to having a chance of beating Republicans in an election.
It works pretty well for most things. The extra creamy oat milk has lower fat and protein than even 2% milk, so it doesn't work well for things like bechamel sauces or custards that depend on the fats to thicken up. Adding a little butter can make up for it though. I've seen quite a few recipes including substitution instructions for oat and nut milk.
I usually drank whole milk. I've found I like the Planet Oat extra creamy to be the best. I actually prefer making mac n cheese with it over milk!
Funny enough I started drinking oat milk to save money. I don't go through milk very fast, so it often ended up spoiling. Oat milk has a longer shelf life, so I actually use up what I buy.
Not allowing choke holds isn't superficial. Body cams aren't superficial. They cut down on police use of force and citizen complaints. They also cost money. Better trained police costs money. Sending out social workers with police on domestic calls costs money ,and makes a huge difference in the quality of policing.
The only substantial reduction in policing cost is cutting back on the drug war and most left leaning states are doing that. (Reducing numbers of police would do it but most states have similar per capita number of police as Europe).
There is no doubt we have a long way to go on police reform, but to say there has been no progress simply isn't true.
There's only two choices under the current system and the other one is kidnapping people to put in concentration camps right now. The only chance to change the current system without open armed conflict is the Democrats.

Yes, some cops are going to use chokeholds regardless of bans. Some people are going to commit murder regardless of it being illegal too. That doesn't mean we shouldn't bother having laws against murder. The fact that chokes are not reduced to zero by chokehold bans does not negate that it reduces the number of chokes used. In the same way, the fact that cops will sometimes shut off their cams does not negate the times that they don't turn off the cams and it allows victims to seek justice.
I am aware of Killilogy and Warrior Cop training. Cops receiving the wrong training is an entirely separate issue from the cost of improved training.
