"Living is so much easier when you've been stabbed 37 times"

I'm fairly left as well, and whenever I brought up strategic voting I was swatted down with "genocide" like the other person. I was event told by multiple "lefty" users that they hoped Trump won just so it would hurt the democratic party and "teach them a lesson". No matter that we'd be pouring gas on the fire and bringing shit home, they still had to TeAcH tHeM a LeSsOn. Ugh.

The only people who hate leftists more than rightoids are other leftists, and its for shit like that. Moral purity over pragmatism is no different than fanaticism in my eyes. As much as we may hate electoralism, its the only way to work within the system and not let fascists take over. But here we are.

Yet somehow, they're the darling of the gaming scene.

It's fucking bizarre.

It's really not bizarre at all. You wanna know why game enthusiasts like valve? Take the list the other guy gave you and find a store that has close to half of the features steam offers. Add in great hardware support (my controller and my deck are some of the best experiences I've had), and a healthy dose of actually making Linux gaming viable for the average person, and it's obvious AF why game enthusiasts like valve.

Even if they can't count to 3.

That logic doesn't make sense if you do am as well though, since 4 am (ante meridian, before midday) is not 4 hours before midday.

Some of them are outright ridiculous. Like one of the protein cookie brands I like, 80% of the time I have to hulk out and end up ripping the packaging to shreds. We also see it on chip packages and cereal bags at times too. It's crazy.

Trump will try and purge all non loyalist officers from the military. That could lead to a fracturing of the military.

We should ask what happens when there are a large amount of military trained men that are suddenly let loose and returned to the population, but I can't think of a single time that's happened........

It's midnight, because noon is 12PM.

I think you'd need to nearly double the velocity for it to be remotely close. I think I saw something like 30-40k km/h before it's at that level

Unfortunately, I half expect that if we get a 100% chance, governments are going to see where it's going to land (sea/Africa) and decide it's not worth the spend/let's see what happens if we let it hit.

Really hope I'm wrong, but I don't have a lot of faith in humanity anymore.

10000%

I was bullied for a long while in school, and much like this girl, went to school officials multiple times with no improvement (likely because one of the bullies had family in the school office). Nothing was done about the bullying until after I took matters into my own hands on multiple occasions.

I still vividly remember when I broke the nose of the office shithead and got called into the principal's office and threatened with a long out of school suspension, only to get 0 consequences after my grandfather came in and told to principal that he would do no such thing, or there would be a LONG discussion with the local school board (he was a well known person in the community) about how he did fuck all about abuse in his school after repeated notifications and only tried to punish the victim after they defended themselves

I really enjoyed throwing that back in the bully's face whenever he started his shit again, but looking back my grandfather basically cosigned the principal's shitty behavior by not making that fucker pay for the shitty decisions he made.

52, which is practically middle aged by modern standards.

I don't mean to be a Debbie downer, but between the climate spiraling and the MAGA Nazis in the White House, I feel in closer to middle age in my 30s than I would closer to my fifties. I'd like to think I'll live long enough to need my 401k, but I'm not hopeful that I will.

Yeah, that or a pair of wire snips are my go to, but it's such a PITA
