All of us, all of us are going to die.
Accidents from unmaintained infrastructure.
Disasters from relaxed building codes.
Infectious disease like bird flu.
Preventable disease due to no access to health care.
Pregnancy complications with no ability to terminate.
Concentration camps.
War.
Access to clean water.
Accelerated climate change.
Etc.
We are truly fucked.

Ice storm of 2004, we didn't have power for 13 days, 10 of those days the road conditions were so bad that we couldn't get off the farm.
We had switched over to gas heat about 5 years before and didn't have a wood burner anymore so we had to resort to boiling pots of snow on the gas stove to keep the house above freezing.
The whole family slept in the downstairs living room adjacent to the kitchen with the gas stove in our sleeping bags and camping gear to stay warm.
On day 10 when the roads were accessible again we went to town but most places were still closed in the ones that weren't were picked pretty clean.
We we're able to find kerosene for the kerosene heaters and kept the house a little warmer for the next three days until the power came back on.

He literally blamed it on Biden and DEI earlier.

Yes, they've been moving right and trying to stay in the center for 30 years.

Something I haven't seen anyone talk about is the fact that the population of Greenland isn't enough for statehood under the US Constitution. So even if Trump were to somehow acquire Greenland, it doesn't qualify to become a state.

Here's a picture of one of the boxes I bought when I was in Michigan, and I agree that Michigan did it right.
I went up and bought these before they legalized it in Ohio and they did the homegrow parts right but man our dispensaries are fucked up.

Might as well be a swastika armband at this point.

Fred should have given him a good shake in the crib

You can actually buy them like this in Michigan, they're called "halflings" and have wizards and dwarves on the box cover.
So I'm watching LoTR after

Words directly spoken by Jesus are in red, most of the things Jesus said would be considered radically socialist by today's "Christians"

I understand, I was just throwing actual numbers out because it pisses me off too.

 
 

Corporate culture is based on constant growth and ever increasing profit margins. Eventually they'll amass so much of the wealth that most of the lower class won't be able to purchase anything other than essentials like food.
No new cars, no tech gadgets, no fancy dinners, no vacations, no disposable income.
When we get there the economy collapses because there's no money going into it.
The profits stop rolling in, unnecessary goods stop being produced, and the luxury goods producer's shut down.
At this point the money they worked so hard to hoard becomes worthless because they can't buy anything with it.
What's the endgame for them if their current path takes them to a point where their assets are more or less worthless?

Long pressing on a comment has always collapsed it unless you were replying to the comment, then you could long press to highlight a string of text to quote for a reply.
Now, long pressing closes the parent in reply mode and there is no way to highlight text to copy for quoting purposes.

 

Every self-respecting Democrat or leftist who cares about themselves or their family should own a firearm and know how to properly and safely use it.
We're entering a time where it may be critical that you need to defend yourself. It is not out of the realm of possibility that you or your family may be targeted in the not distant future for your political leanings.
We all know that the Republicans have guns because they never shut the fuck up about them, and we also know that in their wildest wet dreams Trump will let them run the streets gunning down anyone who is isn't white or anyone who voted Democrat.
They have guns, they know how to use them, how are you going to defend yourself when they come for you?

 

I get it, Biden is old and that's a problem, but why doesn't anyone seem to have a problem with the fact that Trump is almost the same age, has 34 felonies, raped at least 2 women, went to Epstein's Island 11 times, sexualized his own daughter, stole classified documents, aligned himself with Xi and Putin, and can't remember common names?

Is all of that really better than being 2½ years older than he is right now?

 
 

Anyone seen this before?

My OS is on a 512gb M.2 drive, but the main storage on my laptop was a 1TB HDD, it started making noise about 2 weeks ago so I backed everything up onto a 1TB SanDisk USB SSD. This afternoon it got very clicky when I booted it up after work and icons for a few games I had stored on it, like KSP and YUZU, disappeared from the desktop and taskbar.
