- Comment on The White House is paving over the Rose Garden with concrete. People are outraged 2 weeks ago:
The rose gardes deco has gotten controversy, but a green space seems way better then drab concrete. Such a tall flagpole wont even be seen in press conferences. I bet he got stuck in some mud and got mad, and the flag pole is a vain attempt to say hes got a huge pole…
- Comment on In this day and age is it possible to create a commune? With majority of vegetables coming from one acre and all put in to get wifi to our subdivision? So the bill is not that high? 3 weeks ago:
With an llc and enough contracts, sure. Have “investors” pay into some cooperative to buy land/startup, then everyone is somehow working for that co-op which pays for everything?

9.4m, including legal fees. Hope there was a good chunk left after that. Utter gross negligence, horrible the coordinator thinks he did nothing wrong and there isn’t more recourse, no license to remove no firing.

- Comment on Sony, which is making a Helldivers 2 movie, is also making a new Starship Troopers movie, but it's not based on the Starship Troopers movie we already have 3 months ago:
iirc the the creative who made the movie is quoted “I didn’t finish the book, it was too boring”
Yes, the books is heavy on the facisism, so a true movie adaptation that isn’t going the route of satirical parody wouldn’t read so well, and nowadays it might be a little to close to reality.

But Helldivers is based on Starship troopers the movie not the book but the new Starship troppers movie will be based not on the movie, so, the book?
The book and the movie are wildy different, the movie was made by someone that didn’t bother reading the full book so just winged the story and made his own kida thing.

Lol, it doesn’t sound great but its a child development club based around the child development lab on campus, we are all grandparents at heart I guess.

LMAO, but this sound so good. At a college club meeting we heard about an event that’s supposed to run until 10pm and everyone whinged, we’re in our early 20’s here, we dont want to be staying out that late.
- Comment on naughty naughty 5 months ago:
I always appreciated the professors that looked out for us and warned us of the places not to get any textbooks from, with links so we could recognize what to avoid, of course.
Then we’d get a professor that gave up doing anything and had us buy a $200, license (with a $200 textbook) to an online course that taught and graded his class.
- Comment on If you can’t discriminate based on age, how are there 55+ neighborhoods? 5 months ago:
That is for employment/workers, not housing. Under equal opertunity employment you cannot discriminate agianst someone 40 or over.
For fair housing, you must not discriminate, such as refuse familys with minor children, except in a number of cases,
one being if 80% of the dwellings units must have at least one occupant who is 55 years of age or older and the community is made and operates as a 55+ place.

One of the biggest threats to national security, privacy. (Joke)

Article states they found over 150 in a detached garage, and in his bedroom was a backpack stuffed with explosives.

Yes, ideally it would be days, not months, but realistically 2 months is not that bad. There are so many threats, reports, etc. Ideally the FBI could investigate every possible threat, but there are too many false threats. I think it makes sense, the 2 reports part. I person says it, just one of thousands of reports daily, 2 reports, there is much higher likelihood of there being something.
For an example of how many threats,
Where I live, it’s not a large city, but the school district gets a threat or report agianst a school about once a week. Boy who cried wolf, they can’t treat everyone as legitimate, at best they notify parents.
Of course these are symptoms of systematic government and societal problems, after all I don’t know any other “First world country”, we have to drill preschoolers and thier teachers active shooter drills as much as fire and earthquakes.
- Comment on flouride 7 months ago:
I am still concerned about fluoride, but for different reasons. The federal government says there is too much natural fluoride in our water so we must import water to dilute it. The federal government doesn’t trust us with police officers, or politicians, but surely the public water company isn’t corrupt or incompetent…surely.
But hey, our teeth are really white and no ones died from flouride, far more likely to die from sudden lead.

One Christmas extended family had a Christmas gift exchange, one uncle had made a “gag gift”, it was a piggy bank with pennies, I got it, he felt bad but to everyone’s suprise, I was estatic. I was 5 and collecting coins, a piggy bank filled with loose change was the best present.
