And yet if the teachers posted fake accounts of the students as babies covered in poop going “Going to school today! Wish me luck!” suddenly THEY would be the bad guys.
I really don’t get how you guys don’t properly unionize - especially with how many companies collaborate with European ones where everyone gets a minimum of 4 weeks of holiday guaranteed by law.
In the army we called that lube the whale sperm. I’m not even joking. It is called LSA, and the cold weather one is LSA-T. But when you have a bunch of young 20’s infantry guys we just called it the whale sperm.
I feel like collecting for the Atari 2600 and while I have other systems like the Sega Genesis, I would like to have your input on what system you think goes well with it…maybe the Intellivision or Colecovision due to being within the same era as the woodgrain or black bread box?
I’m with the other guy. The movie going experience was awful for a long time until I just stopped going. If they’ve made changes, they’ve made them too late for many people, especially when they are charging $20+ in my area. Additionally, regardless of what changes they’ve made to the seats, that doesn’t change how shitty other people are. The noise, lights, running around, spilling food/drinks everywhere, etc creates an environment more akin to a wrestling match than a movie.
We all hate different things, beauty of life, I hate people who use y’all and constsntly post shit about the US of A.
Oh wait you are the “this is what is kneecapping people moving to Lemmy” guy, guess we were just destined to dislike each other. Glad we got that cleared up.
I don’t see what the big deal is. I store all kinds of sensitive information in plain text. SSNs, credit card numbers, birthdates and religious and political affiliation information.
The guy I bought it all from said it was okay, he stores it in plain text, too. (I’m joking, of course! Any information about you all that I’ve bought on the dark web, I’m storing responsibly.)
All of those examples are linguistic drift though.
Naming a white girl moana isn’t the same as some guy named Peter and his russian buddy Pyotr realizing that their names derive from the same origin in Greek (or Aramaic depending on how much you wanna argue Kefa should count as the origin since Petros was a direct translation of it as a name)
It’s a cold calculus but letting them kill someone first means the army has the moral and narrative high ground when the Army Rangers black bag these guys at 3 in the morning.
“And so I come full circle on this response and just want to encourage you with some substance that we are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be,” he said.
I think patriot front goons are gonna shit themselves and fall down the second one of them gets their head exploded. These are not an army. These are - at best - overcompensating racists who enjoy watching stuff blow up good. At worst, sociopaths and highly paranoid incels with nothing to lose and no one to talk to. Are they gonna take over downtown? No. They might kill a few people, be the news item o’the week, standard mass shooter stuff but with matching little bandanas.
Look these chuds come marching out of a uhaul, and one of them takes a shotgun in the gut - invasion over. Horrifying, wrong-at-all-levels, a failure of society, government, education, and media, yes. But not a threat to the US Army. Or, hell, most over-militarized police units.
Now, individual acts of terrorism? Taking over East Bumble’s bad neighborhood? Yeah, possible. For awhile. These are guys who only talk and cosplay. Yes a little target practice and hey some calisthenics to unify the sweaty bros or whatever else they get up to at Camp Grab Ass. They are radicalized, they are individually dangerous, but they aren’t going to meet up at the state capitol and taliban their way into running the department of transportation.
There’s a certain type of guy that wants a cybertruck. Most women would want to avoid that type of guy, and certainly wouldn’t want to accidentally procreate with them. So the cybertruck is the ultimate cock block for the good of all humankind.
The positions that a lot of the trump supporters take up are whatever they all mutually agree are their positions, and/or whatever they are told is their position du jour… in other words, today they may say that they are pro one thing and con a different thing, but their loyalty is to the party, not to the merits of the positions they espouse.
The moment they were told that they no longer feared and hated Russia, they started saying “you know that Putin guy isn’t so bad after all”, as if the Cold War never happened, as if their perceived greatest enemy for the last 50 years wasn’t Russia and communism.
A lot of them hated Jews too until they were told that their side supports Israel.
It’s straight out of 1984… “We were always at war with Eastasia.”
They will easily adopt the project 2025 positions if that’s what their god emperor tells them to do.
Late to the game but it was DnD night for me! Nearly lost a party member but our cleric pulled a revivify! (Honestly with the diamond requirement, we pulled some shenanigans to get it to work but the DM was chill about it). But @ 2300 hrs, the fucking bad guy came back with a second health bar and like all of us are tapped for spells and potions, so we’ll see next session who actually makes it out! Got my second character set up already!
Are we talking about the Taliban that ruled over a country that was invaded by the US simply because they were “looking for some guy” (a guy the Taliban actually offered to deliver to them beforehand) that they eventually found in Pakistan? The Taliban that also made the US run out of Afghanistan with their tails between their legs after leaving a cardboard cutout of a military there to fix the mess that the US caused?
That Taliban?
Yeah… I can see why USians would be so upset about that.

Anywhere else, Google “hot air balloon repair station”. Those guys work on every balloon within a hundred miles of them, and can point you in the right direction.
Trustbusting would be a solution, but people gotta get behind it. Guess which guy running for President is moving in that direction? Hint: it’s not the billionaire.
Giant ceremonial bonfires /= fireworks, for one. Tons of random shit can go into bonfires beyond just wood, the wood is of incredibly differing quality and chemical treatments, and bonfires by their nature a low to the ground and intended to last for at minimum an hour or they’re not worth making.
This is not the same discussion as fireworks. It’s also still not long term effects, as the site warns of poor air quality in the days that follow the giant bonfires if there is no wind or weather, but it does dissipate either way, not that this event gives everyone cancer or something.
The question was about fireworks. And yea, fireworks are an afterthought still. Compared to Guy Fawkes Night maybe even more of an afterthought. Guy Fawkes Night and 4th of July still hardly register on the global scale of CO2 and GHG outputs.
Me too, haha. This is what happens when you treat arguments like chess pieces and not, you know, reason. I don’t believe this guy has any idea what he just said. I also don’t think he cares.

With this heat, I find an idea of a safe and temp-regulated bath-bed tempting.
But I’m sure a daily 8hr sleep in water isn’t something our bodies are ready for. What are probable effects? Can we mitigate them?
