I truly believe that. It’s hard for people to see when the “majority” opinion is so loud and constant.

It’s why social media is dangerous.

I’m waiting for the Ikea Timmerflotte. Any day now…

All this shit and you threaten fucking Democrats?!?

Like… the merchant class that existed after the Black Plague who had enough money to have influence over politics? What do they have to do with anything?

The Constitution is nothing if people are not willing to protect and defend it.

We’re not getting though this passively. We’re not getting this done through courts alone.

Really soon we’re going to have to make people, particularly those wearing badges and masks choose a side first, and go back to the courts to see who was right after.

I just hope it’s done in an organized way, where those people DO have a choice. Just disobeying orders as a lone soldier or officer is not nearly as effective as being part of a group.

Is it though?

Either way, the money grab is why I didn’t get back into MtG recently.

I considered sticking my toe in and was told “oh yeah, just buy a $90 commander precon and hop right in.”

Yeah, no thanks.

From the last Dive, they were talking about how “Bin did it” isn’t a reason to build an item in game. Meteos said, “Yeah, I’ve had that in scrims. Someone will just say ‘let’s try Malzahar’ or whatever. I don’t know why, LCK did it.”

Those aren’t the same. You can play things in scrims for the purpose of understand if/why they work. You shouldn’t be building items in a playoff game purely because someone else did it.

Or it’s a conspiracy theory meant to distract us. I haven’t seen anything credible.

I especially don’t want to call wolf now when it may very well happen soon.

The statistical anomalies are made up. They sound excellent plausible, but turn go and verify any of the actual numbers. Swing states really weren’t any different from other states. They’re not real discrepancies.

They may confiscate your phone and record all data on it.

If it’s a fresh wipe with a good passcode, and you keep it on airplane mode, you’re probably fine.

Why do you need an ID? Leave it in your car if you’re driving.

I don’t think there’s a single state that requires you to actually carry documentation.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_and_identify_statutes

These are the states that require you to at least verbally state your name, and only if the officer has reasonable suspicion that you have or will commit a crime.

They can ask your name. You may not have to answer.

Research your state’s law on this before you go. It’s in the link.

Really though, about a quarter of my work related coding queries come back with “redacted to meet responsible AI guidelines”.

It’s an AI specifically for code. Apparently it thinks half the stuff I do is hacking.

Maybe, maybe not. Politicians have always had a finger in the wind on some issues. I think if you gave a decent historical account including things like current crime rates by race and the bombing of Tulsa, and just mention “generational wealth” like they’re already familiar with it, and then gave them 24 hours to sit on it, I think they’d all be good with it.

Consider if someone took you, shoved you 200 years into the future and said, “Eating animals was some fucked up shit. Do you know what happened in Factory Farms? Really? Of course we’re all vegetarian.”.

And if we’re still non-violent, someone will join who isn’t and ensure some violence exists. It’s Plan 1A in the dictator playbook.

Yes, but that’s semantics. Clearly the observation has some effect, but it’s not from any force we recognize.

My friend thinks the jobs don’t exist, and they’re just posted so the company looks good.

They definitely did that at college job fairs. They wanted to keep their spot, but weren’t hiring that year.

Is it being a class traitor though? Maybe she just realizes that her dollars are worth more than rubles for a reason, a reason that is very much now in question.

If anyone should support the rule of law, it’s the billionaires. We should all be on the same side against fascism.

provide working families who have paid their rent on time for two years and are buying their first home up to $25,000 in down-payment assistance, with more generous support for first-generation homeowners – or homebuyers whose parents don’t own a home.

Nothing at all about “immigrants”. Where did you hear that bullshit?
