Hmmm... almost looks like the motorist did some self-enforcement of the bus-carpool lane rules.

It also looks like the bike coming down on him might have done more damage to him than the skidding on the pavement on his back (saved by leathers).

I noticed that also, but I have two doors that swing out to my lanai. I think (hope) the hinges used are tamper proof!Normally in the USA you do not have the exterior doors open to the outside, because if you do that the hinges are on the outside and can often be removed
I've run into this before while proofreading things I've written than contain "rn". I fix it, and it still looks like "m". An unforseen gotcha in the font design.look closely
Actually that is clever...for scumbags...
I think the dems made a big strategic mistake here.

This says it all...I think the dems made a big strategic mistake here. The BBB took away a bunch of their pet handout programs. Since it was passed under reconciliation, it passed even though all of them opposed it. They saw blaming the shutdown on the repubs as a way to get their handouts back, but it apparently isn't working in the "court of public opinion". So now they're in a jam, and the deeper they dig in makes it more damaging for them. Both sides are dug in so deep, that either one just giving in would do great damage to how their supporters view them. In the past, when the crooked politicians acted polite, some sort of face-saving phony compromise would have been cooked up. But with neither side being polite, and instead wanting to draw blood, this shutdown could go on for a lot longer and do a lot of damage. Right now, each side thinks the other will be held responsible for the damage.
