I pretty much had to set a limit with my wife. Like you can have these 4 giant tote bins filled with yarn supplies and two baskets of projects in progress but if you want more than that you have to give some away.

I had to make a boundary because it was getting out of hand.

If only it were easier to organize into teams without being infiltrated by disguised fed boys, but only the right is allowed to do that.

It’s almost like the uniting factor of the people is class. I feel like there was a historical figure once, who was assassinated for trying to pivot from race to class because the government saw the danger of a united population.

Every other cause is a distraction from that one.

I will cover my guns in cosmoline, wrap them in wax paper, and bury them in a pelican case in the desert before I turn them in or let them be taken.

All of modern logistics is based on a hub and spoke system instead of point to point because it’s cheaper. It’s also why it’s impossible to find a direct flight unless you live at or are traveling to a a hub airport.

Please tell me which countries are taking refugees from the United States without needing to have first found employment and applying to immigrate through the normal process, without being explicit members of a protected class. Or even if you are.

Because to my knowledge, that doesn’t currently exist. Meaning its only attainable for people already in the top 10% economically.

The care of the warheads is typically done by some central organization, rather than every individual missile base. Its really specialized work, and it doesn’t make sense to have teams capable of performing it at every base.

Strange, the overlap between the political obsessions of Russia, and those of Conservatives in the United States. It’s almost as if one controls the information consumed by the other…

It’s not even the first time. Several years ago Georgia cracked down on employers of illegal immigrants and you know what happened? A whole shitload of produce rotted in the fields, because it turns out picking vegetables in 90 degree heat with 100% humidity for 14 hours a day 6 or 7 days a week for minimum wage isn’t really a job people want.

It’s always depressing to me that there are pretty obvious ways to fix problems but absolutely no way to enact solutions.

Publicly funded elections (so corporations cannot buy their way in), and a ban on post-career employment for politicians fixes it immediately. But fat chance of that.

BROWN PEOPLE COME FROM MEXICO

• Maga, probably

You’d need 2/3 of the Senate to vote to get rid of him after years of party purification - the reasonable people are all gone.

I’m trying to imagine how the collapse of Rome would have gone if Caesar had been so limp dicked and useless.

Fascists also tend to take a “kill them all, let God sort them out” approach to things like this.

Here legally but the wrong shade of brown? Maybe your English is too accented? “Don’t worry the arrest is just preventative, once they prove they’re here legally (from the camp, with no resources, assistance, or access to their documentation) they’ll be returned to their community.”

Except they won’t. Oopsie, gotta break a few eggs to make an omelette.

Also the ability of mirror neurons to watch someone do a thing, then conceptualize and execute it with your body is extremely interesting.

Reprocessing of old pits.

It’s more a matter of precision, purity, infrastructure, and staffing.

And you can have them effective/guaranteed to work, safe/without personnel or environmental contamination, or cheap. Pick two.

I just wanted to add some context for one of these bullets.

The US is upping the amount it spends on nuclear weapons maintenance and production because China has reentered the game as a major player. They’d been stable at 300-350 warheads for decades but is expected to ramp up to producing 100+ per year by 2030.

So one major adversary has just been replaced by another. Everything old is new again, including the cold war arms race.

The ancient wonders series or whatever they’re called is wild too. It’s like some kind of unified conspiracy theory adventure.

5.56 is ~50 cents a round and has been for years at this point

I’m pretty convincing he’s being encouraged to outright collapse the us by Putin
