It’s important to support those in your community that have the target on them before the target gets placed on you. Once the target is on you and the community has failed you keep yourself safe.

Implication being only a high schooler would think these things.

My thought was; you get to keep anything up to a billion every year. Everything over that goes into a public fund, that fund gets named after who put the most in, they get their name on the bills that come out, those bills (same as green backs) get paid to community projects, workers, infrastructure maintenance, and the billionaires get to put their names on it

They don’t want to allow parents to micro manage, they just want them to be able to say what their children can and cannot be taught on a case by case basis, totally different.

Fucking this guy is supposed to be one of the most intelligent people in the country? Conservatives have no standards

We’re entirely fucked, and this seems to be the only thread about it, it’s not gotten much activity. Either people are writing their paragraphs (thanks for not using AI to make your opinions for you), or we’re all feeling about as motivated as I am right now (or less so?) or people just aren’t going to engage…

I’ve never felt worse for my country than I do today, and I thought it couldn’t get worse than yesterday, at least tomorrow is looking up right?

ICE just became the unofficial 5th branch of the military, there aren’t words

Why the fuck does Tennessee think they have a damned thing to say about new York? Is their leaching federal tax dollars not enough? Get back to begging for New York scraps you damn country music Hicks

Why the fuck did trump hire Powell to begin with??

Giddily talked about Ukraine’s “failed” attack on Russia’s bomber fleet (thousands of kilometers behind lines, damaged a significant amount of their fleet), gets butt hurt after his “cease fire negotiations” are ignored and his unprovoked (and probably leaked early) bombing is exposed as ineffective

I’ve never been less nervous about an “attack” fear ain’t going to get anywhere this time.

Could we ‘arrest’ him and send him to a third world prison? It’d be pretty karmic

Congress needs to fucking step up here

They’ll be pushed across that line in the sand very soon, and they’ll say they’ve always been on that side of the line as the next line is drawn.

I fucking hate the ignorant.

I wouldn’t be surprised if she were one of the handful sitting members of Congress who have no idea what roll they’re required, by the oath of office that they swore to, to be apart of when was is declared.

Maybe they did, but 2000 and 2004 were the first elections I was truly aware of, and intelligent enough to know something should’ve been done. I voted for the first time in 2006 and haven’t missed an even year voting cycle since. I stopped asking my father why he didn’t support peaceful protests happening in areas near to him about 10 years ago, and cut off all contact 6 years ago. I’ve not been more at peace since

My favorite series is disgaea, but I wouldn’t recommend it to most people, it’s over the top game breaking silliness.

Chroma-squad is often overlooked, but captures a lot of what name 90s trpg’s great and improves on the formula quite a bit.

The absolute best trpg imo is “bionic dues”, I feel like it you enjoyed into the breach you should definitely give bionic dues a shot, it’s such a different style of game,

I hate so much 2000’s election. W Bush shit on the Constitution to such a degree that now Trump can get us involved in a military affair, not with the explicit consent and will of Congress, but with a fucking tweet.

Gwb you started this, that and the rigged supreme Court. If I were of voting age back then I would’ve rioted. I asked my dad why he didn’t, despite being a huge 2A proponent, and all he could give me was less respect for him.

Probably had enough time to “clean up” his own businesses records

I’m closer to 40 than 35, and my wife recently gave up ever replacing “college blanket”, which was actually bought for me in early high school after I asked if I could take my grandparents comforter home with me. They found one and got it for me that Christmas (I think it was Ross/home goods), it was probably the most generic comforter ever, I always thought I’d be able to find another when needed. After 2 cats, a dog and the better part of 2 decades, my wife decided it was time to let it go and get a replacement, no problem, it’s the most generic comforter ever. She gets me a nice duvet, so we can keep the inside nice and replace the outside as needed, nope definitely not the same. She gets a comforter, it’s stitched way too tightly, and doesn’t breathe the same (okay maybe a 20 year old blanket has gained a bit of aeration, maybe it breathes better than it did when it was new, but you can definitely tell the padding is stitched much more tightly than college blanket’s ever was), she got me a “cooling” comforter, it’s decent, but paired best with college blanket, and when I only have 1 blanket 9 times out of 10 it’s college blanket.

Now college blanket has had 5 cats and 3 dogs and the majority of my life, it’s been the bed of desire for multiple animals, myself included, and my wife sometimes asks for it when she’s sick. Apparently it’s really scratchy, and holey, and it’s closely missing about 20% of it’s original fluff, and I would put it away in a place of honor in a heartbeat if I could find a new one. I swear it was 40 dollars at a home goods store, in a pile with a hundred others just like it, but we’ve looked for the better part of a decade now, and it’s been deemed irreplaceable. It would probably be the first material thing I went for if we had to evacuate. I’m not highly sentimental, but you don’t let a good blanket go.
