It’s not just irony he has no knowledge of history. He know that Reagan said that. All he knows is that Reagan has an R beside his name and maybe possibly the words trickle down economics.

Now, now, they also weaponized it to siphon off democratic votes BEFORE they started pushing the current Totalitarian Plutocracy.

It can do two things!

mail with your new address whenever you move

We don’t do that. Honestly mail theft here is bad enough, I’m not certain that it’d be a good idea.

Then our ID’s aren’t even free. You’d think that’s all taxes, but it’s not.

You need to go to the department of motor vehicles with a bunch of proof that you exist just to get a walker’s id. (base state ID card)

Getting an MVA ID without other documents is hard Getting other documents without an MVA ID is hard Getting government documents without MVA ID and other documents is impossible.

Used to be the MVA would let you get a license pretty easily. RealID chilled that the fuck out. Now you need to get a birth certificate from your state of birth, (which might require cross-country travel without a drivers license)

To get a state ID, (RealID™ you currently need a birth certificate, social security card, and or a passport and mail/bills with your address.

The cards aren’t free. If you’re poor, or your parents don’t have their shit together you might not have all of that.

Getting a copy of your birth certificate is not generally free. In many states getting a copy of your birth certificate requires you to go back to the state you’re born in and go to the health department there to get a copy.

They would usually like to see your state ID.

To get a replacement social security card, you have to go through the same kind of scenario. I think they are free though.

If you are from a rural area you need to drive. Everyone around you drives you have family that drives. The poor innercity? They don’t need to drive, can make it through most of not all of life without a license, or by having family member step in to help.

It’s a tax on the poor non-driving. They also like to close polling areas in the poor areas because they have a hard time getting to remote polling places. Then they like to crack down on people giving people standing in line water.

These particularly affected poor area disproportionately black.

ehh, if you gotta go, go out with a bang

LOL private chat with 8 people.

You don’t even need a Derek, all you have to do is have one of the 8 perceive that they are being wronged. One’s mate makes googly eyes at another, next thing you know, it’s all public.

Never post anything anywhere if it ever getting out will fuck you.

Nothing is private and you should strive to be the kind of person that doesn’t say shit about other people behind their backs.

Housing the homeless is a good idea, but doing it in a random, hap-hazard way is dangerous.

Govt takes over a block of brownstones, and throws a bunch of random people off the street with abuse/violence/psychological issues in them as fast as possible for six months, it’s a recipe for disaster.

You have to be careful about housing people as a government, you become (at least partially) responsible for their actions. Somebody starts cooking meth on an end unit and all of a sudden you have a fire that kills 30 people.

When the govt plans housing they can take flammability, safety, and location into consideration. If you’re just buying up slums to rehab, most of that goes out the window.

Shit, even if I really wanted to help someone panhandling, it’s not like I ever have any cash on me.

high correlation between mental illness and homelessness

Probably as much cause as effect. Same with the substance abuse, everything in life is shit, you don’t have enough to get off the street but you can afford to get high enough not to care in the moment.

If you buy one today, sure, a few years ago, before their QC issues and mush really started fucking with the company, they weren’t an awful deal.

Even the cyberdumpsters, you could have been on a waiting list for 3-4 years and paid a solid downpayment.

What happens if mush buys out Rivian, all those retroactively turn to shit?

They’re also probably trapped in a loan. That 50-60k car was financed. it’s now worth 1/3 of it’s original cost. A lot of people who shouldn’t have spent 50k on a car will because monthly payments make it affordable to them, now they sell it and can only replace it with a hundai.

made them plastic

#1 is all metal. Retractable tip. Bought one after Adam Savage reviewed them.

#2 is definitely the best long-term option, but it’s really nice not to have to constantly sharpen while you’re doing some intricate work.

The eye-opener now has been that

We’ll probably flux forever in between centralized corpo trash and open decentralized projects, until of course to governments collectively outlaw decentralized projects because they can’t control/police them.

And of the 45% that have, that includes all the heavily right-wing upper class. We’re not sending our best.

Destroy social security. Price houses out of reach for old people the old people work in the fields until death.

Our birth rate is already so low or in danger. Any country not allowing migrants in is toast

Then you just get free meat

Boomer/Early Gen x had double spaces after a period.

burn their children alive than protest/disempower their capitalist fascist oppressors.

I’m concerned that’s a package deal. As soon as he hits the right trigger, it goes martial law. If he shoots protestors, 40% of the US will be chomping at the bit to grab their own guns and help him.

The left might have the majority, but they’re not armed and deluded and ready for the blood of the regular right.

They’ll get disappeared long before they get a chance to be on the bill

what violent revolution looks like

I fear that’s exactly what he’s trying to do. He wants martial law, civil law gets suspended and military swoops in.

Of course, what happens if instead of calling in the military, he just calls in the military industrial complex. You KNOW we have to have autonomous weaponry by now.

Yup, I saw a reasonably well-conducted study that verified they decrease dryer time.
