If we resist his deployment of the military and feds into out cities he may deploy the military to our cities
- Comment on We really need to bring back the 70s conversation pits 5 days ago:
Usually a conversation pit is avoidable, as seen in the pictures. Shouldn’t be enough to render the whole house unusable

The sun heats the planet unevenly, this causes wind. Wind is solar

While I agree that this is all technological possible, I just have a sinking feeling capitalism will find a way to ruin this. Probably involving the profit incentives for power companies
- Comment on You must tell me, please! 1 week ago:
That’s simply a load of bullshit. I won’t tell you ICE hasn’t done it or tried it, but I can tell you they haven’t deported even 1% of poor foreign born US citizens.
We have some big issues yes, but no need to overstate them

Canister shot all the way. Imagine having to charge a cannon position firing this stuff?

I can only speak of my expirences in the US and other places, but for the most part no that’s not how it is in the US.
Yes you can find a racist asshole in every country, but what’s the point. I wouldn’t say every Italian is uneducated because I found a person that didn’t complete school.
But admittedly I left the US before things got out of control. Our federal government is certainly making an attempt at trying to define who should be American. Sad to see and goes against one of the few things I truly loved about my country

Elon is American granted citizenship in 2002, 24 years ago.
I make this point not for Elon, but for other naturalized citizens. Once granted citizenship you are American, that’s one of the few good things I like about this country. I’ve lived and traveled to other countries where it doesn’t matter if you became a citizen or not because the locals will always consider you not one of them.

This all tracks for the military

A Margherita is just a cheese pizza in a lot of Europe.
Confused me for a while too

This was me when Trump took office. Saved myself a lot of money over the past year. Probably won’t need laundry detergent for at least another year.
Does suck having to start buy more things now that prices have really been jacked up from tariffs

The current gold market is valued at 34.243 trillion dollars.
I don’t know the scope of the damage here but lets assume it costs 50 billion to repair. That would be about 353 tons (US) of gold using current prices. The coat of this represents approximately 0.14% of the current global gold market.

If time travel is ever invented I’d love to give a plaeolithic hunter gatherer a crunch wrap
- Comment on Student Parking 3 weeks ago:
My university was kind enough to offer a free lot on the far side of campus. They even had the bus go there.
They would also regularly send parking enforcement to find cars “hiding” off main campus that had delinquent fines. They would then boot the students car removing their access to transportation.
Pretty cruel since this was deep in the south and there was no functioning transit off-campus

I had the same thought but he gets so very excited when we pull out the tube.
- Comment on Yummy yummy, in my tummy 3 weeks ago:
To be clear this is not just straight petroleum jelly it’s formatted for cats, but the tube days 98% petroleum jelly with maple flavor
- Comment on Yummy yummy, in my tummy 3 weeks ago:
We feed out cat a little petroleum jelly to get his insides lubricated. This was prescribed by a vet after he was very constipated. That was an expensive vet visit

Legitimately, keep having to set the heat lower and lower
- Comment on Tips 3 weeks ago:
Yes this is true, but in a world where people.are struggling more and more to buy basic necessities like groceries and pay their bills it’s a bit tone deaf.
Yes some people overspend frivolously, but many are just broke after inflation and tariffs
- Comment on The consequences of not building enough housing 3 weeks ago:
Oh yeah we certainly have that many homes ready to be occupied tomorrow
- Comment on The consequences of not building enough housing 3 weeks ago:
You know I see this figure a lot, but I wonder how many of these are actually liveable.
My grandfather’s old home is unoccupied, that’s because the roof entirely collapsed. The county refuses to remove it from the property taxes. Based on all available records it’s an unoccupied home, but it’s a total loss in reality.

1 healthy grocery please
- Comment on Anon tells a true story 4 weeks ago:
That’s really not well proven.
There’s some evidence for and some against. If these two have mental conditions caused by environmental factors that they overcome they may actually provide a really good environment to a child.
- Comment on What a great idea 4 weeks ago:
Gas pumps no, grabbing a bag of chips from the gas station yes.
Sit down restaurants no, fast food restaurant yes*
*unless he only does drive thru
- Comment on What a great idea 4 weeks ago:
Depends on the region. I only know a handful of stores in my town that offer it. It’s not uncommon for the lanes to be closed.
Reliably the largest grocery stores on the edge of town have them and they are always open. In town, near the train station, or in the surrounding villages not so much

I remember my days as a cashier when a guy in his 50s came up to buy something and was just like “I don’t know how this works my wife does the shopping”. I just scanned his items and gave him the total. Once again he couldn’t understand.
I had to give this grown man step by step instructions on making a purchase. Including how to use a card for payment.
It was wild. Even in a world where his wife does the shopping has he never ran into a gas station for a snack or gone to lunch on his own?
