Shoutout to The Chats for helping to finally identify(?) Mr. Democracy Manifest.

Constrictive criticism and pointers is how we get better

A Boa Constrictor saying "YAAASS!!!"

Yeah, please. Why be deceptive? It serves no one.

Better yet, take responsibility for your own pleasure. Play an active role in getting what you want out of the act. Communicate. Why wouldn't you?

1 wine = 1 cocaine = 1 heroin

Hmm... Aight.

Man, people have no memory.

What was the total payout per-person of the Trump checks? Something like $2000? We only got those because the country was on lockdown, and that's only like a month's worth of expenses for me (and I live in a relatively low COL area).

Nice. This was one of the only expeditions I ever missed, will be nice to finally get to play it!

Same for TV ads opposing our Amendment 4 in Florida. Just so much demonstrably false info. Early in the election ads ramp-up, there was one that actually showed the full text of the amendment on-screen, while making false claims about it in the voiceover.

They're pandering to a base that does not care about facts, and who often will not even bother to read what is put in front of them.

Maybe 30 to 45 minutes in Merritt Island, Florida, back in 2004.

It was my first time voting, and I went with my parents after they were home from work, so it's likely that that was the longest anyone there waited.

I've lived all over central Florida since, and have never had to wait at all, but that's mostly because I do Early Voting or even Vote By Mail now.

Check out Crime Pays But Botany Doesn't (aka Joey Santore, aka Tony Santoro). He's been a vocal advocate for the "kill your lawn" / natural landscaping crowd for a while, and also I just really enjoy him.

He worked on/is working on a cable TV show called "Kill Your Lawn" too, but it's not super widely available. You can find some episodes of that on YouTube as well.

Been a lot of "demon" talk from him lately. Tucker's literally turning into Alex Jones before our very eyes.

I can't be sure this was the primary use-case that the AI inventors envisioned, but it's hard to argue that it's not successful at this. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

... for him, in the US, in that situation, it would probably be best to get a gun himself and the next time the guy does something like this, just two to the chest. ... Seeing he has a restraining order and whatnot previous things, probably should be somewhat of an easy case to defend as self-defense, right? Unless it's just even fucking sadder, and it is just because he's black and he'd just end up imprisoned for murder.

"Imprisoned for murder" might still be on the optimistic side of potential outcomes... He could well be murdered himself, by the police, in reponse to what you and I see as self-defense. (I am guessing from the "in the US" part of your comment and other context that you aren't from here, and may not be aware of the history of institutionalized racism that would make any interaction with the police potentially dangerous for him. Forgive me if I have erred there.)
