Wait until you hear about county and city laws.

Oh, so the US should have claimed Venezuela was US property, then they aren’t playing world police!

“Have you tried turning it off and back on?”

“yes, obviously that was THE FIRST thing I tried”

Random thought just popped into my head for no reason I can think of: if you know someone’s name, and the county they own property in, you can visit their county records (many even have publicly accessible websites) and find the exact plots of land tied to their name!

I managed to track down the former property owner of the place I live now to their new house in another state, since they intentionally hid a bunch of issues from the buyer before the sale that ended up costing nearly half the price of the house and the realtors decided to ignore me when I attempted to get in contact.

All I did was look up “[County I knew remembered they were moving to from overheard conversations during the buying process] county property records” and the rest was super straightforward.

The only thing there that should be censored. Fuck r*ddit.

Forgive them

Nah. Just forget them.

I’ve been shot, I’ve been stabbed, I’ve had thousands of pounds of aluminum fall straight toward me and get caught in the last half meter, I’ve had semis clip my clothing while on a bike and send me flying, I’ve been pushed off the road by shitty carbrains who can’t share anything, and I’ve been told I have less than a week before most of my organs shut down.

I’ve thought I was going to die many times. And not once did I think anything other than “huh. So this is it”. Most of the I was laughing afterward, and I’m not 100% why except maybe a nervous response.

Ultimately I don’t know if I’m emotionally prepared to die, but there’s things I am absolutely willing to die for. I’d rather NOT die, but I’d say I am accepting of it.

Uhhhhhhh I’m not actually sure I answered your question, sorry.

I have so many knives and hammers and axes and shivs and even a saw or two.

I’m basically ready to go on a mass killing spree, according to them.

I’m surprised they didn’t list pencils in there. Anyone who’s seen John Wick or the dark knight knows they are deadly weapons.

… Again?

Idk man, I feel like the fall of the Berlin wall didn’t affect my parents much.

Battle of Hastings? I mean yeah. Probably scatter most of my family tree.

Also is it really a good time to tell Americans that they need to be disarmed when the vast majority of us are having a hard time with a fascist federal government and police forces who refuse to do their job?

This is my biggest issue with anyone preaching gun bans and the like.

I am actively encouraging my lgbtq+ and other minority friends to arm and train, and have had a few over to my personal range (basically my back yard in the country with a big dirt hill surrounding a couple steel plates) to practice with because they don’t feel comfortable going to public ranges. (deep red country and likely to encounter bigots with guns and bad attitudes)

Armed minorities are harder to oppress.

So, basically everything?

Politicians can be bought out for embarrassingly low sums.

I got an email like this a few weeks ago, and then about 2 minutes later I got a new email with the corrected replacements.

I replied with a screenshot zoomed in on the “candidate name” bit and left it at that. Didn’t even get a half-assed “lol sorry Bruh”

I wish my wife could play subnautica with me, as she likes swimming around and stuff but isn’t really “good” at video games, since she never played one until adulthood.

In Minecraft it’s mostly me doing the work while she does farming stuff. I once came back from a deep mining trip to see a once-empty field filled to the maximum with cows. We had a nice library afterward though.

I still haven’t beaten subnautica without cheating or taking shortcuts. Heck when I first downloaded it, it didn’t even have an ending yet.

9.3/10, it’s fun

Maybe he’s dead?

Or more likely it just hasn’t been shoved in his face while he watches TV or “plays golf”

Hopefully that first one though.

We also didn’t need multiple movies with Russians as the bad guys, yet here we are.

They were already doing so, and this wouldn’t excuse anything Russians have been doing even if Ukraine had bombed the fuck out of the place.

It’s definitely a false flag (in my opinion, not actual confirmation by anyone as far as I’m aware), but not a very good one.

Doesn’t targeting individuals for political purposes during a war break a bunch of international agreements or at least come close?

I’m not sure. That said, I don’t consider “ending a war” to be a political purpose, but if the “rules” of war say you aren’t allowed to take out the leadership, then the rules are “only the poor have to die” and fuck that classist bullshit…

And while your enemy being Warcrimes-R-Us doesn’t excuse your own war crimes, I think if your enemy is trying to genocide you, then you are within your rights to fight however you need to in order to not be genocided.

corporations not knowing what fair use is

pretending to not know. They’re fully capable of understanding when it helps them make money.

Supposed to be. But I woke up and decided I didn’t want to go in.

Supposedly I’m giving up my holiday pay tomorrow but if I read my hiring packet correctly, their version of “holiday pay” is “well give you an hour of PTO for the day instead of the usual 3 minutes”
