Thought so, thanks. Came here to see if I was reading too much into it.

Looks fake because there’s no debris twisting around the base. Must be a hill blocking the view.

COW!

So, from what I gather most Brits don’t have AC?

Same for LGBT rights. There’s been a seismic shift since I was a kid in the 80s. Here in America we’re rolling backwards a bit, but that’s the nature of societal progress, two steps forward, one back.

Even if they sent them earlier, who is going to catch a warning at 2AM vs. 4:30AM?

Right here. Maybe not full blown blue steel, but I get chubby if a woman’s smell hits me right.

If you want to take this offline, we should talk. Sounds like you have a long way to go before considering all this, and we should come together.

LGBTQ and BIPOC folks need to arm themselves these days

They’ve been the largest gun buying demographic for a few years. It’s the suburban white boys who didn’t get the memo.

All that destruction to provide a couple of hundred jobs. These dumbass politicians think Meta is bringing in a factory, like the old days.

Bladders are insanely tough, like stomachs. We used to make carrying pouches out of them for that reason. Without some weird medical issue, and I mean really weird, your bladder is simply going to let go.

people drinking alcohol and passing out and their bladders bursting

Anecdotally, if this were possible, I wouldn’t have made it to 30.

RVs exploded around here during COVID. All the parks I know of are at 100% capacity and I’ve been told to reserve now and pray. (Not that I’m looking, just RV-curious.)

I have a theory that shitloads of people like me lost parents and grandparents to COVID, got inheritances and tried to buy something to live in. Also, seems like housing prices spiked and nothing was available in my hood. I suspect the same reasoning. I ended up with 2.5 acres of swamp to play around in. :)

Here in Florida you gotta put your shack on wheels. Functionality doesn’t matter, just wheels.

I loathe that woman’s goddamned voice. I think she’s trying to channel Barbara Walters. Second I hear it, off she goes because I know bullshit is coming into my ear canal.

I’m in a conservative area where everyone has guns, so no ICE around here yet, but I have my eyes open as my wife is a brown, legal immigrant. Still, I’m armed everywhere I go, particularly with her, and that fucking sucks as I would formerly only carry in strange places. I now have a gun within reach everywhere in my house.

Other than ICE, I’m afraid Trump’s win and actions have emboldened the most radical racists. Plenty of people around here seem to think she’s Mexican. LOL, Filipinos are indeed Asian Mexicans!

She wants to take a trip home, but I’m scared shitless of getting back in. She’s had plenty of friends who have made the trip in the past few months and is utterly unafraid. OTOH, she’s woefully ignorant about American politics, just now figuring out that Trump is an “evil man”. Also, she thinks her legal status will protect her.

Sometimes it’s a good sign, at least in politics. The 99-1 Senate vote to kill the anti-AI-law ban of the latest bill was telling. Same goes for unanimous SCOTUS decisions. If both liberals and conservatives overwhelmingly agree on a thing, it’s almost certainly a good call.

Then donate time and money to Habitat for Humanity. They’re the only reason I own a home.

in minecraft that is

American driver here so YMMV. 125cc is just too slow to be safe. Motorcycles and scooter drivers often have to give it the gas to scoot out of a dangerous situation. If I ever got another ICE scooter, it would be 250cc.

satire or mockery

What about fair use?

Here’s the GOP playbook:

1. Slash government.
2. Complain government is broken.
3. Privatize government roles.

I read the Project 2025 section on NOAA and the NWS and this is indeed the play. They claim weather services will be more efficient in private hands.
