This is a great piece. (And damn, that principal is smoking hot.)

This is brilliant. Please send them an email with this idea.

I propose a GOP all-you-can-eat McD’s eating competition, headlined by Trump and Vance.

Cheers, used to live there but moved when Gianforte made an example out of that sweet trans public servant from Missoula. I’d pick a blue state to live in if you can. I’m an optimist and think things will recover (with permanent damage) but it’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better :/

Ahh, thank you.

It is extremely complex, requires half a dozen countries just to do, and requires incredible education and extremely long work hours.

Does anyone know if the m.2 SSD is replaceable with something like a 2230 1tb SSD from a non-apple source?

You and me both. Imagine where we’d be without Trump.

Oh, the Republicans will give them a reason to vote, just wait a bit and see, lol. If Republicans deregulating banks caused a “great recession”, I’m very curious what voters just bought for us by voting for a platform of deregulating everything.

No, I think people will enjoy the taste of curb and a swift kick to the head for the next 4-8 years. It really puts things in perspective.

That, and your state and city elections matter and might be direct votes, which matter a ton now that the government is going to largely become permanently scarred and damaged for decades or longer.

Four years to fix a global pandemic and undo some of the trump admin damage.

That was the bipartisan infrastructure act to shore up stuff like roads, bridges and more, the IRA to address inflation, climate goals (freed up a ton of money for green infrastructure, replacing outdated equipment at factories like gas smelters and furnaces) and more, the CHIPS and science act to counter china and restart manufacturing here in the US, as well as smaller stuff like debt relief for students, consumer protections against banks and airlines, and repealing DOMA via respect of marriage act for interracial and queer families.

In addition to conquering covid and rescuing a crashing economy in 2020. He realistically did most of this in two years because Republicans blocked them at the midterms.

Not to mention a lot of anti-competitve and merger blocks that would have fucked our country, like having one grocery store brand across the entire US. (These will probably go through in a trump admin)

He wasn’t able to get it all done, but he had one arm tied behind his back and still got a decent amount done before they got hamstrung.

Paramilitary is stretching it a bit, stuff like shooting guns is optional and with guidelines from the sane past. It plays an anemic role in the BSA, tbh.

The vast majority of boy scouts is learning constructive things like how to cook, how to perform first aid on someone who got injured in a car accident or hike, how to use a map and compass if you get lost, and basic financial planning so you aren’t an idiot with money.

In short, it prepares you for life and situations where someone might freeze up if they don’t know what to do in an emergency. It also makes people fluent with the outdoors and feel comfortable spending time outside of the big city.

Tldr; it’s a group that prevents incel or gang behavior and helps people make friends.

When I saw the convoys in Canada, I knew you guys were in a similar situation. Europe is wavering too.

Long term? Democracy will persist. Short term? It will be tested worldwide.

My biggest fear is that climate change is pushing people to the extremes, and we get distracted in petty wars over nothing while we don’t treat the underlying problem at its core. Humans in desperate situations do idiotic things.

The west coast stuck to its guns almost completely. Mark Robinson and Kari Lake lost their races incredibly enough.

Biden got some big stuff done with chips, infrastructure investment, and more. Unless Trump starts tearing down bridges and forcing people to remove heat pumps, some of Biden’s stuff will be very difficult to reverse, physically or politically.

Absolutely fucking shit.

Sorry. I thought things would be different. Sorely disappointed is an understatement.

Hell of an uphill battle against MQ-9s, hellfire, and LRAS.

Too many people stayed home when they should have voted. It was their civic duty and moral goddamn obligation to the rest of the world. Fuck…

Very true. Gossip spreads quickly, even offline. When word got out that Vance sodomized a couch, he was doomed, even if it later turned out to be fake, lol.

Dude, you got plenty of time. Look for remote jobs. Somebody needs you and your computer engineering skills! Speaking English also unlocks a lot of potential opportunities for remote work.

This is a seriously cool article. An accretion disk tens of thousands of light-years across is fucking wild. That’s getting awfully close to our own SMBH at our galactic core, sag A* if LID was placed between us and our SMBH.

A fucking plasma of superheated matter from a black hole could be crisping our black hole and Earth simultaneously. Jesus.

It fucks with me in that I lose focus, but it’s depressing AF to work while the sun is shining and leave as it’s going down. I’m not a farmer, give me that mf sunlight back so I can hang out with friends :p
