This always blows me away when they call for FREEDOM.

Freedom to own a gun and say whatever you want, put whatever you want in your body.

But then it’s like Ban books, stop wokeness, don’t use those bathrooms, no to that medical care, etc over and over.

Fuck couches. Eats babies. Doesn’t elaborate.

I know two Republican Indians, which is two too many. They absolutely shit on their own country/people and sees stories like this as why they’re “one of the good ones”. They’re great Leopards Ate My Face material.

I grew up with rifles that were locked in the garage. And I was a stupid kid who figured out how to look down the barrel and point them at the neighbors’ fence. They were “hidden” in an area where I could mess with them for a few hours without my family knowing.

I was given the whole talk but I never took it seriously until years later when I got on the range and did some actual hunting and cried my ass off killing an animal.

Knowing how stupid I was, I assume the worse with my family.

Today, I keep a pistol in a secure case in the house. But it’s in my office near all the other critical things where I can see it/my kids can’t access it without lots of barriers. It also means that it’s kinda useless for quick access and would take a few minutes to get. I’m okay with that.

Safe storage === shoe box on top of the fridge

All the gun owners I know talk the biggest talk about safety. Then the moment they get to show it off, they wave their guns around like school children and pointing it at random things and fetishizing it.

Mine is locked up and secured. And if I take it out, I’m using it.

I’m pretty sure they practiced with a few different stand-ins to really simulate the Donald Trump experience.

One was a baby crying for 2 hours.

Another was a rambling coke head they found wandering in the street.

Another is an old man with dementia.

And another was a 10-year old kid who just goes, “Nu uh you”

Ah yeah that’s me.

The difference is where Orange Man actively instigates violence. Everything out of his mouth comes from a egotistic or selfish perspective.

Where me mocking idiots on the internet is more about shutting down bad ideas from spreading.

No kidding. Nextdoor is a disaster.

I checked in recently and this literally was my news feed

1. Dance in the park Event
2. Free boxes
3. Bar has new sandwich
4. WHY IS BLACK TEENAGER WALKING ON SIDEWALK
5. Pictures of a rainbow

Couples therapy in my area would easily cost about $150/hr.

The rest of America should follow Oregon’s standards.

When Republicans walked out, Oregon said Bye Felicia.

Oregon high court says 10 GOP state senators who staged long walkout can’t run for reelection.

“Such is the scale of advancements we’ve made, that 2024 Tim Cook would walk up to 2023 Tim Cook holding a bit ‘L’ on his forehead before giving him an atomic wedgie for having such a crappy iphone.

I like the joke but this is so clumsily written.

I like to race by popping a edible, then seeing how much chores I can do before my brain goes into space.

His half-indian kids are going to grow up and pick up the clues their racist father drops. And I’m gonna bet suddenly JD Vance is gonna call his kids WOKE when they no longer want a relationship with him.

NY times has been giving Trump great coverage while dismissing Biden through this whole election cycle.

My local supermarket added 8 self checkout machines, and removed almost all the cashier lanes.

For a year, they pushed everyone towards the self checkout. Every… Body. Old people were clogging up the Customer Service section because they want a human. The machines constantly failed to scan, and people would just shrug and pretend like it did.

The deviants started to realize it’s super easy to steal, as they can just pay for 1/10 of their groceries and “forget” to scan a lot of things. They started to lock up a lot of merchandise, and you need a human to unlock it.

So now they have hired security guards to then scan receipts, as well as follow people in the parking lots.

The whole supermarket is kind of a shit show. I counted 5 security guards to 2 workers when I was last there. I also do my shopping elsewhere.

Seriously this.

This is my setup for my wife.

Ah you’re also from a UK community! That’s everything I need to know.

Edit: The UK mods should just ban me from their instance because I’m obviously a menace to everything they stand for.

I actually find this wholesome because while dude was initially mocking tarots, what he was really doing was being an active listener and being available for people.

So I’m all for this type of “prank”.

I remember in 2005, pulling over and calling my sister for directions on my flip phone because I got lost.

I didn’t get mobile internet until like 2010. Not because I couldn’t, but because it was wildly expensive for a bad experience, since “mobile-friendly” was non-existent.

This was also during the era when Google Maps was a brand new website, not a app. I think I was still MapQuesting.
