Civ IV was peak Civ for me. The changes made going into V just didn’t feel like Civ.
Yes, that includes the loss of doomstacks.

Tennessee is somewhat of an outlier, as its other major cities skew red, though at least in part artificially so. Nashville, for example, is part of three different districts now, the 5th, 6th, and 7th. It’s been lost to gerrymandering. Knoxville, in the 2nd, and Chattanooga in the 3rd are heavily Republican cities.
The 4th contains conservative-leaning private universities and suburbs of Nashville and Chattanooga.
The 9th District, colloquially “Memphis” in my previous statement, is the only district in the state that currently has a significantly strong Democratic voter base. If anything, it became even more blue after the 2023 re-districting moved part of East Memphis to the already conservative 8th district.
Of the districts other than Memphis, the 5th, which can be thought of as the ghost of Nashville, is the closest to even resembling purple; even so, it has a CVPI of R+9.
Take away Memphis and see how much the hue of Tennessee shifts towards 0°.
Wouldn’t it work better in that case? The implication being that if you weren’t the only tall person, then staff wouldn’t be so short without you.
In the headline, “pledging to ‘murder’ shoplifters” is a restrictive participial phrase modifying “texts.” Restrictive elements are not offset by commas.

No.
You can’t do that.
If premeditation was a requirement, 2nd degree murder would not exist.
Premeditation isn’t required for murder charges.
Malice aforethought is.
“Landmine has taken my sight, taken my speech, taken my hearing…”
I guess someone forgot to tell Metallica when they were writing the song that it wasn’t about a landmine.
And I guess someone previously forgot to tell Dalton Trumbo when he wrote Johnny Got His Gun that it wasn’t an anti-war novel.
And then they forgot to tell him again thirty-two years later when he directed the movie adaptation, Johnny Got His Gun.
And then, worst of all, they forgot to tell the directors of the music video that “One” was anti-war and Johnny Got His Gun was about a landmine and that using scenes from the film in the music video wouldn’t be thematically appropriate.
Damn, there were a lot of missteps! Good thing you set it all straight!
To add to your point regarding additional functions inherent in smartphones: pagers do one thing. They’re relatively simple devices. Simplicity means that there are fewer things that can cause the device to function incorrectly or fail to function altogether. In hospital communications use-cases, this is a huge benefit.
Additionally, pagers are relatively inexpensive. Therefore, it’s much more effective to have multiple spares available for distribution compared to smartphones. If a pager is inoperable, it can quickly be swapped out with a backup while the original is repaired or replaced. Smartphones do not carry that benefit.
No… porque no los dos
That’s a section of track where the break has been found and documented. At the very least, significant damage that is suspected to be related to sabotage would require additional thorough inspection of the surrounding railway.
This particular rail system is pretty clearly using reinforced concrete ties.
You could do it with a hacksaw, if you had enough replacement blades. And you could do it with an arsenal of bastard files as well. Each iteration on the idea takes considerably more time and effort, though. Those rails are quite a bit tougher than you might realize.
What is this, a planet for ants?!
Is joke.
