I always find it amusing when baby boomers quote the expression “… strong men create good times, good times create weak men…” as if the children of ww2 weren’t the most coddled generation in history.

I know it’s not directly related to your comment but I always think about how impotent the US has proven to be the last 80 years

What an intellectually dishonest title. You can’t keep posting after your death; your persona and all the relationships you spent a lifetime building become commodities for Meta to profit from

Not far from the truth. Apparently they needed to shoot down a stray balloon… Someone should write a song about it

Maybe it’s me who just doesn’t understand the law, but it’s exhausting constantly seeing judges determine ICE is flagrently violating the law and all they do is say “oh now you’d better stop breaking the law”… Is it beyond the purview of the judiciary to impose actual penalties for wrongdoing?

I’m slightly surprised insurance companies aren’t more involved fighting ice. Capitalists usually hate blowing money on stupid shit

More like, closing off airspace so nobody accidently gets ICE on camera training on MRAPs and 50 Cals before they unleash them on US cities

El Paso + parts of New Mexico means Ft Bliss. That’s where the US Army/Air Force does nearly all of their munitions training. I wonder if ICE is getting a special training course bc that’s also about how long one lasts.

Eta: this is also the last stop soldiers make before forward deploying. They could have a large quantity of people they intend to deploy in the very near future. Good reason to keep eyes off the area with all the tensions in the middle east and wherever else Trump decides to go to war with this week.

I think a lot of people also missed that this wasn’t a regular prayer cloth that any Muslim would have in their home, this was from the Kaaba specifically. Millions of people travel from across the globe every year to pray here—this specific “rug” is essentially a piece of history and should have never been given away, especially to a zionist

Also, just a year or two ago they were preventing students from wearing masks at protests

Can’t go into much detail, but I knew of a confirmed case 3 weeks before the news did. Underreporting is an understatement

The first thing I did when I got my pc was to uninstall OneDrive and set Proton as my cloud backup. Somehow, it seems my computer reverted my settings without my knowledge.

Paycheck to paycheck can be a pretty broad term. I worked at the bottom rung in healthcare scraping by and had to endure listening to people making 3x what I made talking about when their check was gonna hit the bank. It’s easy to be broke when you have a spending problem

I placed an online order and used a coupon code I got from some browser extension. The seller refused to ship the item to me until I gave them more money because they said the free shipping code was meant for internal use only & not for customers.

Why not just have everyone refuse to work on election day, every election day. It’s insane that it’s not a national holiday

Who is the target demographic for this article? “those of us who still care can make a difference” and then goes on to say we need to build in geographic hotspot, optimize our grid projections, source our raw materials more ethically, and decide which forests are most worth protecting. This isn’t anything actionable for anyone other than capitalists, who are exactly the ones who don’t care if the world burns

It’s a mattress/topper brand

At least 1,234,567:1 there could be more

Idk if this is outdated or I just watch different content than OP, but I’ve been seeing mostly Helix & MeUndies the last year

They’re not even trying to fire into openings. Two shots I saw were clearly aimed directly at civilians

Looks like a couple of peaceful folks taking a tour around the hospital to me
