Another president fond of coup d’état and authoritarianism! That was a fun read for me: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Óscar_R._Benavides

I don’t recall being given the option to vote on this.

Typical, but not required! If it was required they would probably write bullshit anyway, but this is not even the minimum of standards they are trying to uphold. A supreme joke of a court.

I have been reading through this book on the matter: The Half Has Never Been Told: Slavery and the Making of American Capitalism by Edward E. Baptist https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14894629-the-half-has-never-been-told

The descriptions of violence toward slaves is heavily discussed and is quite eye-opening to me, since this is not the version I was taught in school!

Sure, I just can’t help but imagine how I personally would react if this became common for all patients.

However, Reddit executives have noticed that traffic coming from Google has limited value, as users seeking answers to a specific question often don’t convert into becoming active Redditors, the people said. Now, Reddit is engaging with product teams at Google in hopes of finding ways to send more of its users deeper into its ecosystem of community forums, according to the executives.

What does this even mean (I’m afraid to know their suggestions)? So I check reddit for an answer if web search is failing me, and they’re going to somehow trap me there? Tease an answer and not show anything until I sign in? Idk but sounds like I’ll be using “-site:reddit.com” more and more, or realizing I dont care enough to get the answer!

I think I would be offended if some robot came up to try and provide emotional support. Its fake, and reminds me that our society values profit over human life. This should not be normalized as a necessity due to missing money that is going to the pockets of administrators, owners, insurance, and whoever else…this is pathetic.

Nothing in the image itself, but someone else posted this link: https://www.chicagotribune.com/2025/09/19/tear-gas-protesters-broadview-ice/

Curtis Evans, of Evanston, carries a U.S. flag through gas deployed by federal officers as they clear protesters from the entrance of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Broadview on Sept. 19, 2025. Evans said he was a Marine during President Ronald Reagan’s term. (Stacey Wescott/Chicago Tribune)

How can you tell? Just curious as a Marine veteran. We used to do jumping jacks and pushups in the gas room until the last man couldn’t take it anymore. Those were the days!

Edit: Oops nm, I found the source on this guy.

My experience exactly, from the last 3 companies ive worked for! And now there are no job advancement options internally because the openings have moved to India.

I pay extra for paramount+ ad free version and they still show me periodic ads. Its infuriating. And they are much louder than the show content, as a cherry on top. What an awful service.

Do you think a background check and red flag law would have changed the outcome in this case? What evidence is there that it would?

Left leaning ex military here…200 yd man sized with iron sights is not an issue.

I really doubt there was any ricochet after watching the video. There is no disturbance at all except strait to the neck.

Plus they will be working against our own people. When deployed to another country there is some mental disconnect happening that I don’t think will happen domestically.

Aside from tactics and training not working which I agree with, I don’t believe the majority will be motivated to be effective in any way.

Absolutely it. Happened to me standing for a memorial service. Lots of stories from military where this happens, and “don’t lock your knees” is often taught first thing.

Rufus the dufus. Nice marketing!

less common spelling of doofus slang : a stupid, incompetent, or foolish person

Well of course, haven’t you seen the drivers training video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yco1deXOzN8

I recently saw a pigeon doing its mating ritual trying to attract another pigeon in my yard. That other pigeon had been dead for over a week! That didn’t stop the mating attempt. This is also how I picture trump.

Presumably you also take big greasy shits in your home state, so this is real dumb. People gotta poop. Arizona has a lot of beautiful areas and good people.
