  1. Apparently IDF was calling residents an hour before? Then they have a thing called a roof knock where they literally have like a firework sized thing blow up on the roof, "knocking it", as a final warning before doing the full strike? I had no idea that was a thing. What a fucked situation over there. This guy is just watching twitter and showing things. No clue if he leans one way or another, seems pretty neutral so far
  2. This account is basically live streaming updates. A ton of shit going on.
  3. He knows a guy with a great connection for that adrenochrome, didn't save the hairline but the skin is fantastic
  4. How many of y'all are actually paying cash when you go out to eat? Back when I waited tables early 2010's, it was probably 10% cash. Occasionally people paying with card would leave the tip in cash, more common with regulars. Tips end of shift would be between 10 and 20% cash, the rest reported through the POS from the credit transactions. Cash tips never ever got reported.
  5. 28-32, two took account executive outside sales roles in wireless and the other took a job working for a bank doing something with mortgages after studying and taking a test / getting certified, I have a vague understanding of that one.
  6. Small sample size, but of my 4 friends that worked waiting tables, up here in WA, 3 are now working elsewhere for equal/better pay/benefits and preferred schedule compared to their previous schedule, got a 9-5. The last one is working again at their old place as of January and getting full hours, original pay, and they are understaffed like everybody else.
  7. Held his own against the pro's. Great showing for DK! Love having that guy on my team.
  8. Fucking hell 🥺 Brian Davis reporting on twitter already
  9. when he gives it 100% gas after reading the blocks it's like the rest of the players on the field suddenly look slow motion in that Or St reverse clip lmao
  10. had a cuban at a restaurant up here and it sucked. so I made a cuban. then made about 10 more cause you can't get all the stuff for only one sandwich. mojo pork and ham for weeks. First time I used an instant pot too. Grilled the pork butt for searing first then 1:15 in the ip. Holy shit that was convenient and worked well lmao.
  11. Not sure if you're necessarily saying that I was making that claim or making a note general comment cause I agree with you on that. I'm socially very liberal, fiscally pretty neutral, and anti world police role, just for reference. The extreme right, the very loud, more populous than ever before, holding more seats and votes than ever before, hold much more influence and power than the equivalent on the left. Yabos are going to exist on each spectrum until the end of time. Keeping them out of the sphere of influence so the adults can run things is important. The republican party failed to keep the inmates from running the asylum over the last 8 years. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk
  12. those pearls aren't gonna clutch themselves, gotta get creative with it
  13. Nah that's Zac Wilson circa yesterday
  14. Facts don't matter. That really is the simplest way to describe why the divide is so wide and toxic. it's not disagreeing on policy or opinion in relation to a fact, mutually agreed upon thing that might have disagreement spawn from it. There are no mutually agreed upon things anymore to anchor us to the same reality. It's just opinions. Made up, baseless, hateful, viral, destructive opinions. And they take it to the bank like it's the word of god. I don't know what the fix is. Thankfully I don't deal with it too much up here in Antifa HQ Seattle. Bless your little hearts for those of you with family that's been sucked down the rabbit hole. Oh and I came here to post that Acosta hammer. Bullshit Factory is going to get used at every opportunity for a while now.
  15. lol come join the non retarded 12th man
  16. Seahawks woke up and chose serious speed at WR this year
  17. Davante Davis lmao, Golic you idiot
  18. Over/Under 1.5 on horns taken tonight I've got over @ 2, but I think one of Cosmi or Ossai will fall almost out of the third to the total shock of some here.
  19. Discord stream was dope! Fall is going to be absolutely nuts
  20. The cross necklace is a nice touch. Like I wasn't already staring at her cleavage
  21. Whole post was spot on but I wanted to highlight this. Was talking to my folks about this a few days ago, trying to explain the QAnon phenomenon and how the fuck we got there. How political polarization combined with social media herding people into like minded groups to create interactions that get progressively more extreme in idea. These bubbles become echo chambers without counter balances. This is exactly where the disconnect is. It's not a difference of ideas or policies. It's become a complete separation of experienced realities. Like a fork in the road of time travel or something, the alt right fearmongering religious conservative lives in a different universe than the rest of us. Facts are no longer facts, they've become opinions that are shrugged off and replaced with extreme opinions that get believed as facts. Social media echo chambers reinforce these extreme opinions and they become "obviously" true, when they are simply not. But the belief is there. The faith in that being unquestionably true is there. And it's dangerous as fuck. Facts used to unite us in one world where disagreement and discussion was possible because there was at least mutually agreed upon points of intersection. edit: In fairness, the mechanism of polarization + social media echo chamber = more extremism with less and less grounding in reality is not exclusive to the right, obviously. Echo chambers have produced extremists throughout history, they normally have been literal bubbles with lack of outside world interaction. See indoctrination of kids into jihadism, hippy cults turned terrorists in California, whatever. Same basic idea. If all you know is the story from one source, it sure seems true. Those extremists are grown in literal bubbles with zero attachment/access to the outside world. The current political extremism is by fucking choice by people with access to all the information in the world at their fingertips via their phone and computers.... The irony is that same access that should act as a counterbalance was actually the method of rapid spread and introduction of insane ideas to millions more. woops. It's just spread like wildfire. The perfect storm of tea party and increased social media utilization among older ages combined to form one hell of a seed that has grown into a major fuck storm.
