  1. I know a lot of shit is going on, but kinda surprised no one posted about this: https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russia-destroys-ukraine-launched-drone-flying-towards-moscow-mayor-says-2024-09-09/
  2. as the meme I saw the other day said, it's harder to sell a taco than it is to shoot someone with ar-15. we let the lizard brains win and here we are
  3. but notice since the makeup of most of those towns is the right shade of pale no one bitches and moans about those loafers and moochers. I think this country could benefit a lot from universal basic income - we already have it in many other forms that are way, way more expensive and less efficient. I acknowledge there are simply people who have no bootstraps to pull up. we're better off as a society to provide a minimum for basic comforts. it's already the norm to large swaths of the country - let's remove the stigma and make it popular. hell, there's a new animated series that makes fun of that very idea.
  4. yeah, but that's probably not what he's talking about. there are countless little cities across america whose sole economy is welfare checks. once you leave urban areas and head interior the landscape is pretty bleak. even little towns like Lockhart and others like it cannot survive on their own - they rely on Austin and surrounding large metros to prop up their economy. we haven't done a good job of finding niche economies for those communities once the industry that founded them in the first place has left.
  5. that's why there's no 'if' in my statement
  6. it's a pretty big toss up between us and florida on who has the bigger piece of shit governor.
  7. and there it is. the sole reason dotard chose him as his vp.
  8. the next brutal beating or death of a haitian immigrant sits squarely on his shoulders.
  9. I'm sure these tactics will swing people to their side. fucking idiot fascists
  10. ah, I was searching for 'plus' instead of '+'
  11. they've done Pride Night for a long time. they always have other spotlight games like the others.
  12. maybe it's only available for ios? this site says coming soon: https://victoryplus.com/coming-soon
  13. gonna be top heavy for a looong time. that and the nurse contract I don't see how they'll be competitive beyond their top line. guess we'll see (or won't)
  14. I really wish I had not uncovered that spoiler. Also I see Grifting with Goya is still a thing
  15. well, admitting it at least. unprecedented times indeed
  16. no, I was talking more about the vigilante killer taking out the criminals that fall through the cracks. the premise seemed far fetched my first watch through. seems a lot more plausible now
  17. rewatching Dexter and suddenly he seems like the likely outcome of this broken system. what a fucking joke. I feel bad for people who spend their working careers furthering and defending this abomination. well, maybe I don't because they chose that path. gross
