mixed cycle and bus lanes
That seems sort of dangerous. And yes, I'm sure Bordeaux counts as large.

Has there ever been a case of a successful project in any large Western city to build a network of lanes exclusively for cyclists, scooter-riders and Walmart/mobility scooters?

I've seen it mentioned by X channels that follow the war. But even if it's untrue, and why would it be, the Russian government having suspended participation in the treaty in 2023, which I wasn't aware of, renders the whole issue moot anyway. There's no good reason to leave heavy bombers out in the open.

I don’t have half as responsible a job as JFK, and I can’t find time to golf let alone to keep a half dozen mistresses happy and on tap. Where did he find the time? Given, he was so hot, with so much social proof, that the seduction itself doesn’t seem to have been difficult, but still: keeping them all reasonably happy, keeping track of who they were, finding time to fuck them all? Where did he find the time?
Didn't he have a large number of trusted staffers?

I've heard the claim that US and Russian strategic bombers are currently required to be stored in a way accessible to satellite recon, as part of the verification sections of our arms control treaties.
Yes, they need to be made visible to satellites of the other party during and after the process of being eliminated in accordance with the treaty.

It's a bit of a stretch to say that disagreeableness is common on this site, isn't it?

At this point, you basically have to be doing some kind of search on every single container coming in, right?
Or alternatively just store your combat aircraft in reinforced hangars, as they all should be in the first place.

What exactly counts as either coercion or restriction in this particular context though?

The youngest living Boomers are roughly 70 years old. What's the point in trying to convince them? People generally don't change their worldview over the age of 35 anyway.

So Olga was just another Russian single mom? Because that's how she ends up at the end of the movie.

the oft-quoted statistic that the top 80% of women are contending for the top 20% of men and the bottom 80% of men are contending for the bottom 80% of women, or some similar numbers that are eerily close to the Pareto distribution.
Never have I seen the 80/20 rule stated that way in the context of the mating market anywhere. What I can surely state is that the rule was originally popularized (in the online space, that is) on Manosphere sites sometime around 2008 or 2009 (definitely not 2015). I can’t cite sources because those sites disappeared a long time ago due to various reasons (doxxing etc.). It’s a simple interpretation of the Pareto effect (i.e. that 80% of the consequences/results come from 20% of the causes/effort) applied to the mating market, and was usually stated as “20% of the men attract 80% of the women” or “20% of all men have 80% of all the sex” etc. I’m aware that those statements are rather different but that doesn’t matter because all of them assume the same Pareto effect. (Some detractors even came up with the argument that what’s actually happening is that 20% of all men engage in 80% of all sex acts with 20% of all women, which’d still be an example of the Pareto effect/distribution). Again, the fundamental intent behind the whole argument is to differentiate the current society of unrestrained female hypergamy from the bygone society of enforced monogamy, because a lot of people were unaware of this distinction, especially back then.

I guess what he's alluding to is that you as an upper-class Millennial woman lack the necessary insight to understand the long-term consequences the Sexual Revolution had on men's attitudes towards the mating market.

I think the argument here is that she, just like the Boomers in general, is unaware of the long-term consequences of the Sexual Revolution.

She did pose naked for magazines a couple of times.
Which is what pretty much all fashion models normally do, I guess?

Where is the number 22 coming from? There has never been a society where the usual age of (first) marriage was 22 for men.

Most importantly: not violent.
Why are you assuming this with regard to women's preferences? Also, not violent to anyone, or just not violent to her or specific people?
support a family
physical protection for his family
So it's important to be a patriarchal man except when it isn't?

I'd also add an alternative mundane answer:
By being unserious about relationships in general. In a society where extended adolescence and delayed adulthood are the norm it's not even out of the ordinary.

I imagine Prince Harry's and Edward's decisions were mainly driven by them wanting to simply spite their families whom they resented above all else.
With regard to Reagan I'm assuming you're referring to his 2nd wife? Did she have a reputation as a thot?
And with regard to Melania, are we automatically assuming that she was a thot by virtue of being a fashion model, or is there more to know about her career that I'm not aware of?
Dr. Timberlake is correct. If your condition disables you to perform the sorts of work that anyone in your vicinity would be willing to pay you money to do, you're factually disabled.
