The only thing the Sith did wrong was not hire a queer person for their uniforms / outfits.

Thats the equivalent of a “preemptive peacekeeping” mission. I’d have thought we’d see the UK be the first to something along these lines. 🙄

It is currently, but education of the current voting populace began, and began to fail, long before 2025.

Believe me, i’m accutely aware of 2025. I’m preparing as best as my homeless trans ass can atm, in case me and my chosen peeps feel it best leave in a hurry.

And, while it spells out lots of shitty policy for the trumpers, I very seriously doubt that the concept isn’t much more than an assembly of 1. Stating the obvious, and taking the reigns / credit for, the exploitations started by men who are long dead. 2. A group of groups/shakey collective, and their ideas on how to “take over” the government in a very “you won’t believed this loophole” sort of way.

Is it possible they even mostly succeed? Abso-fucking-lutely, and I worry that its very very likely.

If the left, and those hurt by their own right leaders, cannot manage to stop this, within or outside of the government… and considering how so many opportunities to do that between now and then… then we deserve it. And i’ll gtfo this place, or die trying if it comes to that.

But, given how trump post-election, no longer holds that weighty 2nd term value to the media and politicians alike, I suspect all that trump loyalty dramatically decease before midterms.

I won’t claim its all a grand plan or conspiracy, though I do think thats totally possible.

Its really just a time-tested quality of societial power struggles, it might very well be just a shitty coincidence.

Racism takes root out of people’s fear, and that fear is genuine, although likely obscurred.

Fear that can lead to racism can just simply be a genuine “other race will hurt me” But I’d argue thats only true for the people starting out with the lowest of the low in mental capacity.

More often though, the fear that leads to racist values and occasionally genuine fear of another race is a fear of death.

All it takes is for someone a person holds in high enough reguard convincing them that death might be coming sooner because of “the others”.

And death in the broadest sense of not just a loss of life, but also losing ones way of life. From there, you can point out whatever “others” you’d like, and the bigger the group you can simply define, the more efficient it is. And the dumber a person, the easier it happens.

I’d include bigotry, sexism, even greed boil down to that too.

There’s the kicker. Cause I firmly believe that, with more education (not indoctrination) by itself, conservativism would be made up entirely of the lowest 10% of intelligence, and those in the upper 0.5% of wealth (well, those who aren’t already included from the former).

Cause no way in hell do this many regular average people care that greatly about the latest week’s GOP bullshit. Not a chance. Its fear that motivates them to seek a solution, but lack of education that makes it so effective at falling for.

We gotta live with them, so we better figure out how to teach adults who don’t have to be in school for years. Or learn how to live with needing to kill or exile them.

We all remember what 4Chan did to Bing’s first of many diarrhea-born LLM…

Lol thanks! I feel the same. Enjoy what’s left of your weekend too!

No we just gone so crazy that you don’t even remember I’m you buddy! Try and remember on Wednesday, it’s embarrassing when we don’t check the mirror on our way out the door, can’t have that happening again.

Oh, yeah, that feeling sure is fun… especially when it catches a hyperfixation wave.

Wasn’t at all mocking! It wasn’t even me who caught it. My GF was like “Hmmm, thats too internet-only-fact” and looked it up. Just passing it along cause I sure as shit didn’t know lol

I had to look it up myself lol

Greek, not latin

oops. Yup

Greek, not latin

Sometimes, actually kinda often, people come to you who know the costs of your materials pretty accurately. “I used to own a…” and “My industry uses that too, and it…” or any info regarding your costs.

Almost always those phrases are followed by some level of attempt to lower your prices.

Don’t, even at the start, even if its family. You don’t even have to explain it to them if you don’t like confrontation.

If they know it so well, they also know why your pricing is the way it is, and what they’d like you do is bend over.

Also, relatedly, inflation always sucks, and your pricing, if fair, reflecting that will be anticipated. Trying to remain at the same price when your costs really change isn’t good business. For something like filament, idk if wholesale prices fluctuate or just go up, so leaving some space if the former so you can avoid constantly updating your pricing is cool too. For a business I used to own, I just priced factoring my gas pricing a half a dollar more than the start of the year’s, and rarely had to adjust it within a year.

Pellet guns are harmful and maybe deadly to us, but we’re soft. Only an american would be so gun minded but insufficiently informed to think that nobody has any guns, especially the hunting rifle you’d need, powerfully enough to do anything other than crack a lense if you’re lucky. The gun propaganda here doesn’t want to share than most europeans are able to responsibly own certain firearms if they want to meet the requirements.

Tell me you’re American without telling me you’re American lol.

Not a bad idea overall, but not a great first idea either

Wait… other than cook any bird or animal that might land inside, what would this do? I thought household microwaves were nowhere near capable of doing anything at any distance.

I’d just go to the local print shop and have the most disturbing image put onto some large poster. Like a Hi-Res close up of a butthole with some form of issues.

I’m shocked, shocked I tell ya!
