You would think, but you also have to remember: Canadians are also stupid. They’re us, just a decade behind.

Yep. And those dumb motherfuckers will repeal the CHIPS act my state is already using.

Espresso machine I’ve been wanting to buy.

Solar panel system for the house. (this one will get WAY more expensive)

Very thankful my girlfriend and I got ducks this spring. They’ll be worth their weight in gold shortly enough.

Yeah, that’s fair. Especially in somewhere like California.

But yes, it’s absolutely wild. Just yesterday, in a very blue state, there was an army of Trumpers blocking like 3 intersections in their lifted trucks with Trump flags. They were screaming at everyone stuck watching the charade. It’s gotten, like you said, psychotic.

You’re right. Tactical is the more common name. I see them listed both ways. But yeah, you can get those cheap as hell. While not beginner friendly, they’ll do the job if the biggest concern is cost.

And that’s true, but I think it’s important to note that Trump is a symptom, not the disease itself. The disease is his base, and the corruption of their belief in democracy. I hope I’m wrong, but I feel like we’ll see this level of politics for a while more.

But good on you for doing the footwork! And thanks for linking those instances!

Met my current partner at work. The funny part is I had given up completely, after going on dates with enough people, but just not really connecting with any. My previous relationship was haunting me, and I carried a lot of damage from it. I just couldn’t overcome it, so, I gave up. Then, out of nowhere, this gorgeous, kind, bubbly, and incredibly intelligent girl just showed up in an IT orientation I was leading. We started talking eventually, and we’ve been together for 2 amazing years. I know it’s cliché, but sometimes you find what you’re looking for precisely when you’re not looking.

Before that I dated on apps, and I can confirm it was hell. It’s probably changed in the 3 odd years I was using them, but Bumble was by far the best app, at least in my area. On that app, it felt a lot more meaningful than Tinder or Hinge.

How has your dating life been, OP?

I think the best advice has been given by others.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. Feel free to DM me if you need to vent, or if I can do anything to help.

It’s terrifying. If you’re in a position to, and don’t already have one, I’m encouraging everyone on the left to get a decent gun. Cheapest option is an assault 12 gauge. These people are full on, insane fascists. Their “day of retribution” will be a lot harder to impossible if we’re armed.

Ah, yes. Trypophobia pancakes.

There are two manufacturers of Girl Scout cookies in the US. They’re roughly a West and East manufacturer. Their cookies taste subtly different–unless you have sensory integration disorder like my sister and have tasted the difference her whole life and then deep dived into it in her early 20s and felt very vindicated when she found out there were two distributors and no she wasn’t crazy that whole time and just tasted that almost impossible to detect difference.

Bro I literally can’t stand either of those shows. It’s almost like taste is subjective

Javalina 🐗

Not my problem. I was only informed about the trolley.

Can we subscribe to your opportunities, so we can invest?

Because they’re inferior in the minds of many.

Silver almost best them with no equipment.

FUCK

They actually wore diapers for a quick minute there.

Oh, believe it or not, that gets even worse! Some people are insane.

That is feet. A double tick mark is inches. I apologize for our horrible measurement system; I wish we were on metric, too.
