Yes, that’s where I live, too. Most of us are pretty chill. Our gun laws are ridiculous, which is why stuff like that happens, but the vast majority of us are not walking around and shooting children.

This is due to a bunch of big, powerful countries teaming up and bullying everybody else.

Why do you think it’s such a big deal if Iran has nuclear weapons? After all, the US has nuclear weapons. Russia has nuclear weapons. Israel has nuclear weapons. So why can’t Iran have nuclear weapons?

Because if Iran had nuclear weapons, then those big and powerful nations might have to give Iran a seat at the table. It wouldn’t be so easy pushing Iran around anymore, because if you pointed nuclear missiles at Iran, you’d have nuclear missiles pointing right back at you.

Personally, I don’t think that any country should have nukes. They’re too dangerous. I think that all countries should be working towards mutual nuclear disarmament. This can be done through treaties and so on. But if any country is allowed to have them, then every country should be allowed to have them.

Brevity is a sign of good writing.

The consequences can’t simply be monetary, because these people are stupidly wealthy. If they’re found culpable, send them to prison.

Jesus, where the fuck do you live.

So, these groups of neighbors spend all of their time telling homeowners what they can put in their yards instead of lobbying their local government. Whoever accomplished that coup must be very proud of themselves.

Oh, people are worried that they’ll hit somebody’s kid backing out of the driveway.

That’s terrible.

His mom should share her pot.

“Strait” meaning “narrow, confining”: it’s a narrow passage through a body of water. See also “straitjacket”, a narrow and confining jacket.

He’s always polite and respectful, too. That’s why it’s so jarring when he gets snarky on some of his solo videos. He shouldn’t try to do that. He isn’t good at it at all.

The explanation that I heard was that Hitler was originally trying to get rid of all of the Jews in the countries that he conquered, but he eventually decided that he wanted to conquer the entire planet.

This reminded me of something. When I was in college, I was forced to buy several incompetently-written textbooks. One of them was on death and dying. A chapter on funerary customs had in the first paragraph the observation that in most societies, when a person dies, they are removed from their home.

You have some setting mucking it up. In my case, I think it’s my VPN.

Maybe a little less caffeine? Try a nice herbal tea once in a while. Like chamomile.

I thought Mother Jones had a really good take on this. This isn’t about who he is as a person.

…Afroman, whose real name is Joseph Foreman, does not need to be an undeniably good person for people to embrace the outcome of the case: a measure of accountability for institutional wrongdoing. When victims are forced to speak out to try to spotlight abuses against them, the onus does not fall on them to represent any moral standard.

Why did you feel the need to say it, too? You aren’t adding anything.

He’s a “supporter” in the sense that he’s friendly towards Trump. He didn’t endorse him, though, because he was running for president himself.

Randy Walters is a son of a bitch.

Oh, yeah. Because the Cybertruck is so beautiful!

That’s the name of the command, though. It’s adb sideload. Anything else is installing.
