Them:" I saw someone once who spoke a different language than me once. What is that if not GLOBALISM?"

If the US gets poor enough can a fast food combo cost less than an hour of working an assembly line?

It’s still deflective. Saying someone else called these events a war crime is distancing their news agency from calling it that even as they spell out details of an event that’s a war crime

“They took all the trees and put 'em in a tree museum And they charged the people a dollar and a half to see them”

Maybe she doesn’t seed?

In defense of game devs it’s twice as much work to make every outfit have a model for masculine and feminine body types, but your point stands

News said he was a green beret and that he shot himself before the explosion so I’m pretty sure he understood it was flammable

A lot of those things have expiration dates.

Medicine loses potency or goes bad over time. Ammo can get moisture in it or just become unreliable over time. The lining in food and drink containers from most things in the grocery store will usually break down or begin to in about a year and start to leach into the food. Fuel to power any generator will go bad in six months, unless you use additives for long storage and those can cause an engine to be running lean or richer than it should be. Guns need replacement parts and won’t typically work forever with some TLC and the ability to fabricate or just have parts stockpiled

Basically most accelerationist plans for the apocalypse are not backed up by any sustainability. Things like ethanol production and a good battery bank system would be far more sustainable than the usual type of stuff that I see them preparing for. Not that guns couldn’t help, it’s just that if you don’t know anything else and can’t contribute to keeping yourself alive for longer than a few months or a year then that’s just going to end up with sick and starving gun nuts who are desperate if they survive that long

Idk I think it makes perfect sense. Think of the oligarchs as someone actively firebombing the house in your analogy. It’s not just about getting the leg unstuck but stopping the ones causing the biggest issue

Bus doesn’t even run on Sundays where I live in large areas (one of the top 10 largest cities in the US)

Spoiler for a later strip

The Borg don’t want him

Depending on when you do it it’s possible there could be very little resistance or security in your way in some hypothetical situations. For example let’s say a court order goes through for FB to release something from their servers, if an independent person with no ties to the company suddenly decided to go after the servers a less than ethical organization might see that as a golden opportunity to do whatever would allow that to happen while still getting them caught afterwards. I’m just having a fun thought exercise

I’m sorry that happened. People should be able to have a real discussion about issues without attacking common sense.

So in that case you would be the contrarian that this post is talking about. It’s almost as though critical thinking is good. Reactionaries may be the most vocal and abundant people on some posts, but that doesn’t mean they are right or willing to take a good look and discuss the topic at hand

The green mile (1999)

The big shift of people on ubi going from wage work to self employment being one of the biggest points of note from this study is interesting. That’s probably a major reason why most US lawmakers would not want ubi.

Something I find interesting is this study didn’t show an increase in hours worked unlike a couple of other smaller studies, that if I recall correctly focused on giving ubi to people who were not currently working.

I’m basically using a 2 stroke chainsaw motor and I get around 20 miles per liter on a 40-1 oil mix

AZ desperately needs one going in-between Phoenix and Flagstaff. Not that a route between Phoenix and Tucson isn’t good it’s just that there is so little options for going up north right now.

I have what is basically classified as a moped because I’m cheap and gas is expensive and I can get to Tucson from Phoenix in about an hour and a half longer than driving. I can’t even go north reasonably because the state says the option for crappier vehicles is some overlong scenic route that makes going from Phoenix to Flagstaff be an extra 100+ miles.

Israel has had a very loose criteria for military targets if you take a look at recent history. I think you bring up a major point.

Considering Netanyahu just said he would attack foreign aid for Palestine. Israel’s actions like the IDF sniping kids in convenience stores, and taking shots at the Japanese medical personnel during the cease fire of operation pillar of defense/cloud, and targeting media offices should call into question, what does Israel consider a military target?

If we’re looking into their heating capacity they should be able to heat approximately 7 and 1/2 gallons of water an hour. A lower end water heater can supply about 85 gallons of water per hour so you’d need about 11 of them to meet a small house capacity.

If we’re looking at their water holding capacity and power consumption. The average house has a 40-60 gallon water heater and a Keurig has a 48oz reservoir. You would need 107 to get to a 40 gallons capacity. When heating they use 1500 watts according to the Internet, so you’d need 160,500 watts (or 1,345.75 amps) of Keurigs to be the equivalent of a low end water heater for a house. The average 40 gallon heater uses between 4500 and 5500 watts.

You don’t need to get insurance just because you have a license. You can have a license and no car.

It could help you as far as some employers will ask if you have one and a few situations like that.

There’s no real downside other than paying for the drivers license test. Even after it expires it’ll still work for an ID.
