At the World Economic Forum, President Donald Trump stated that the US doesn't need Canadian energy, vehicles, or lumber, reiterating his threat of imposing tariffs on Canadian imports—potentially up to 25% by February 1.

Trump suggested Canada could avoid tariffs by "becoming a state," sparking gasps in the Davos audience. The threat has caused unease in Canada, which exports 75% of its goods to the US. Canadian leaders, including Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, have vowed a "dollar-for-dollar" countermeasure if tariffs are enacted, while pitching Canada as a secure and reliable trading partner.

For 'working it out', you're allowed a calculator, but you're not allowed to search up how many minutes in an hour, hours in a day, etc.

Also, you don't have to actually be a theatre kid to vote option 1. If you know this because of the song from Rent, that's the button for you.

I have been hyperfixating on Cranium Command for more than two years, yet I never drew General Knowledge, until now… er… whenever I drew this piece which was this year. While my headcanon Buzzy is very different from the preshow version, General Knowledge is very similar to his official design, but with a few additional details to give him my own flare.

Since my headcanon takes places years after the events of Cranium Command, I like to think Buzzy and General Knowledge have grown closer. In fact, I like to think that Gen Knowledge has mellowed out over time. I wasn’t the biggest fan of the Full Metal Jacket style drill sergeant bit, especially for like an organization that has people piloting brains. That’s not to say I’m against him being harsh. I just would like to tone it down a bit.

Some facts about Maharashtra

[xxbloodied-lambxx]

As a system, it is important to us that we note (now that most of our dash is Egyptian deity memes and riordanverse) that our system is largely comprised of Egyptian mythology introjects (has been since the body was super young) and also has a notable amount of riordanverse fictives.

Whether this is unfortunate or fortunate, we cannot tell.

We are simply making it known.

President Donald Trump fired Joint Chiefs Chairman General C.Q. Brown and five other top military leaders in an unprecedented Pentagon overhaul. Breaking tradition, Trump nominated retired Lieutenant General Dan "Razin" Caine to replace Brown, marking the first time a retired officer has been chosen for the role.

The shakeup also includes replacing Navy Chief Admiral Lisa Franchetti, the first woman to lead a military branch, and other senior officials. Critics, including Democratic lawmakers, called the move a dangerous politicization of the military, warning it undermines trust and national security. This dramatic shift signals a major transformation in U.S. military leadership under Trump's "America First" agenda.

lilliee yyou're the nicestt mmod here, right?? ookay so ii hhave a kindd oof stupid questionn. aare there likee... aactual definitions off hhighblood and lowbloodd? wwhich people countt aas highbloods? ii kknow obviously thatt aa purple iss aa highblood butt ii've seen somee ppeople argue thatt ccerulean somehow isn'tt aand i thoughtt tthey were soo ii kind off nneed help. ii kknow this isntt ssurvival advice butt ii dont knoww who elsee tto ask

LILLIE IS HAPPY TO ANSWER GENERAL QUESTIONS AS WELL! IT PREFERS SURVIVAL QUESTIONS, BUT GENERAL KNOWLEDGE IS SORT OF SURVIVAL TOO! :D SO! I THINK MOST PEOPLE KNOW THIS BUT HIGHBLOOD AND LOWBLOOD ARE ACTUALLY RELATIVE TERMS, SO IT MAKES SENSE THAT YOU'VE SEEN SHIFTING DEFINITIOPNS! OBVIOUSLY THE ONES AT THE VERY BOTTOM AND THE ONES AT THE VERY TOP ALWAYS GET CONSISTENTLY LABELED, BUT IN THE MIDDLE SOMETIMES STUFF GETS FUZZY. HERE'S SOME EXAMPLES THAT MIGHT HELP YOU GET IT LILLIE IS OLIVE, IF LILLIE SAW A CERULEAN SHE WOULD CONSIDER THEM A HIGHBLOOD. BUT IF A VIOLET SAW THAT SAME CERULEAN, THEY WOULD OBVIOUSLY BE ALLOWED TO CALL THEM A LOWBLOOD. IT WOULD MAKE PERFECT SENSE FOR SOME TROLLS TO CONSIDER TEALS TO BE HIGHBLOODS, BUT AN INDIGO PROBABLY WOULDN'T. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? A HIGHBLOOD IS GENERALLY ANYONE SIGNIFIGANTLY HIGHER UP IN THE HEMOSPECTRUM THAN YOU, AND THE HIGHER UP YOU GET IN THE HEMOSPECTRUM THE FURTHER THE DEFINITION OF LOWBLOOD CAN EXPAND. BECAUSE NO ONE IS GOING TO TELL THE EMPRESS THAT SHE CANT CALL VIOLETS AND PURPLES LOWBLOODS. THEY ARE TO HER. THERE'S ALSO THE TERM MIDBLOOD, BUT GENERALLY NO ONE REALLY USES THAT. WELL. LILLIE HAS HEARD SOME HIGHBLOODS USE IT TO TRY TO BE POLITE? BUT LILLIE GENERALLY THINKS IT COMES OFF AS AWKWARD. SOMETIMES YOU ALSO HEAR IT IN JOURNALISM OR PAPERS WHERE THE AUTHOR IS TRYING TO BE VERY OBJECTIVE. IT OFTEN COMES OFF AS WEIRD IN CASUAL CONVERSATION IS WHAT LILLIE IS TRYING TO SAY, EVEN IF IT'S MORE ACCURATE. PLUS, SOMETIMES PEOPLE GET EXTREMELY MAD IF YOU CALL THEM THAT AND LILLIE GENERALLY TRIES TO AVOID THINGS LIKE THAT!

A 16-year-old boy from Pimpri-Chinchwad in Maharashtra died after jumping from the 14th floor of his building, according to the police. They suspect he was addicted to online games, which may have led him to take this tragic step. The boy left a note called "Log out note," along with a strategy map of a multiplayer combat game. The police found several sketches and maps in his notebook. However, they haven't been able to access his laptop because they don't know the password. The police plan to get help from cyber experts to find out which online game he was playing.
