We live in a time where trying to improve yourself in a mundane and normally respectable fashion (for example, starting your own business to have true independence) can have someone try to ruin you. All it takes is an encounter with one jackass and you’re done. Now try to get mental help with...

For my two cents I am going to say that the monotheistic religions managed to get ahold of the right figures of power at the right time. When you have the force of government (and the military) backing your god, you’re gonna win. With polytheism, when the king backs Zeus, the Temple of Poseidon...

Unemployment would hit hard at the end of it all unless you learn some sort of maintenance skill, become a supervisor/manager, create something unique, or adapt in some other way. That being said, if we‘re able to compete with other countries for production contracts, the new automated...

The US should lean hard into automation. All the way to the point where the only automation that is used in the America is produced in America. You’re going to need human workers until the machines for every possible type of repetitive labor are finished, even then you’re going to need human...

I’m not shifting the goal posts. I was posting clarification of what I heard. I didn’t recall the info, so I found where I heard it and posted it so people could see what I meant. Calling him out for stalling is just a statement of fact.

Ah, here it is, he said that they didn’t perform any signature audits. He literally stalled out the clock on that one. On a mobile device so I can’t archive it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24mEEAhuoaQ

Correct me if I am wrong, but didn’t the Governor of Georgia openly admit that State law wasn’t followed when it came to certifying the votes for Biden? As in he admitted that the standard procedure for close races wasn’t followed to completion. I do not recall where I heard that but of info, so...

It is possible, but you need both the infrastructure to keep them fed, the ability to pull animals away from the pack, and keep them with you until you can domesticate them and the ability to defend your new collection of tasty treats from predators. Europeans in those photos had guns...

IIRC black women are getting pissed about the fact that more and more black men are marrying other ethnicities. The men are literally looking around themselves, seeing their marriage options, saying “fuck this shit” and leaving. This might be less pushing an agenda and more trying to get on a...

Water Buffalo are deadly as hell. Domesticating them is out of the question. Heck the sheer number of fauna in the area that has a pre-set “this is how you ruin a human’s life” method packed into their instincts is enough on its own to make settling a chore. Other than that they didn’t get...

I said “cross the line”. I didn’t say anything about words being tossed around, though I will admit that the phrase “them’s fightin‘ words” exists for a reason. I do have a question though: what did you do when you eventually lost a round of insults and kept losing, as opposed to someone trying...

I will say that bullying can’t be tolerated if retaliation is not allowed. If the one being bullied has to “put up with it”, then you have a broken system. The bully needs to learn that people will draw the line and when you cross it you will get punched in the face. Since schools actually see...

If you have power, you can make sycophantic shitheads turn a blind eye to anything so long as they get a slice of that power. It isn’t “better access to their victims”, it is “better screening from law enforcement“. These things can’t function in a vacuum without someone shooting them and...

How many court cases are still floating around about this election? I mean it is over and all, I just don't want things unresolved. I doubt the Federal courts just tossed everything out, that would be really unprofessional, I also doubt that people are going to let this one go.

Yeah, it is true that SCOTUS doesn’t want to crown anyone. Which means that if it turns into a contingent election or if the Senate goes with the alternative slate the Republicans have sent in, things are gonna get real interesting, real fast.
