Question: IF he were to surrender, would he be deported to the UK or to a South American prison?

If it's the latter, can he cross into Canada and just go home for his safety?

I'm not saying he should, I'm asking what his options are.

For anyone else reading this phrase for the first time: "Stochastic terrorism is a form of political violence instigated by hostile public rhetoric directed at a group or an individual. Unlike incitement to terrorism, stochastic terrorism is accomplished with indirect, vague or coded language, which grants the instigator plausible deniability for any associated violence.[1] A key element of stochastic terrorism is the use of media for propagation, where the person carrying out the violence may not have direct connection to any other users of violent rhetoric." - Wikipedia

At our grocery stores you can buy a gallon of food grade white vinegar. Works great. I think it undoes old fabric softener on towels so they absorb better. But I have no empirical proof. No vinegar smells after it dries. I can smell it while it washes in the washer.

I have a bottle of lavender fabric softener I've had for probably 7 years. I use it on blankets and sometimes sheets because I like the smell of this one. Everything else I use is unscented.

I wash the blankets like once or twice a year unless a cat barfs on it. Then it gets washed again.

A couple times a year I have static problems. I have a box of dryer sheets that are also at least 7 years old. I reuse them too for multiple loads. Don't use them for months, get zapped multiple times, throw in dryer sheet, run on low/no heat for 10 minutes, less static electrocution and can fold laundry with less cursing.

Also if you want to wear something straight out of the dryer that is so full of static electricity it's sticking to you and turning you into a wizard, zapping everything you touch... a light mist of water helps. Not a drenching. It should dry fast. Also works on hair.

While I agree public transport would be better in most places. And wholeheartedly believe Elon is not the solution and is instead actively harming untold millions directly and indirectly...

I can't help but be reminded of a conversation I had with my Dad years ago. He thought Tesla's time frame of having charging stations across the US within 5 years to support cross country driving was impossible. And that Tesla would go under and the other car makers would ignore EV. I believed it would happen, that pure EVs would become normal, all of the car companies woyld make them, and be easier to charge. We agreed to disagree.

Now, there are EV F150 pickup trucks and a ton more charging stations. I thought there would be more hybrids first because oil is profitable. And the Prius was gaining a little foothold.

My point is that there has been a huge shift away from depending totally on gas based cars in a relatively short period of time. And small groups of people can make a positive difference. In this case Elon was the face of this change at it's height.

My city has electric buses now, in the South. People finally started believing EVs could be viable.

However.... helping EVs by encouraging the EV idea isn't going to be what Elon will be remembered for - it'll all the hubris,> damage, and needless death.

Unless we lose our country and history is rewritten.

I really wish he'd just stuck to talking up Tesla instead of becoming a badly written Bond Villain.

I can't remember the last time I had to show my card. Usually things have multiple options. Like I9 forms take the social security card, birth certificate, List C docs on https://www.uscis.gov/i-9-central/form-i-9-acceptable-documents

Or places will cross reference with the IRS for certain loans instead of seeing the card since the number is needed and verified through that.

If you memorize your number or at least the last 4 digits, you don't need to reference it either.

Hopefully things have moved on from the 90s when my state university used it as our student ID number and printed it on the front beside our picture. So we had to show it to people a lot.

Not every subreddit is turning fascist. It's still a lifeline for a lot of people with certain health issues, or an evergreen repository for niche hobbies that is more complete than anywhere else with active communities that are helpful to newbies.

It's a huge ask getting people that are getting legitimate help and advice over there to move to a Lemmy community that lacks all the historical information and enough activity that helps people in a timely way.

I know because I'm asking overthere. And a lot of people stuck there aren't closet conservatives, trolls, or bots, they are sharing protest hat patterns, talking about how to get legal treatments that might get banned, and providing information and resources on how to get urgent location-banned medical care, i.e. abortions.

This reminds me of when I ordered a kettlebell once and they just stuck the postage address label on it and shipped it bare. Made it easy for everyone to pick it up by the handle at least.

I am pretty ignorant about the differences, I'll admit. I just find something I like and stick with it.

I'll have to look it up again. So I can forget again in a few months.
