The flat surfaces make them look very… stackable. Do you know anyone with a crane?

Liberate is standard army slang for steal, yes.

That is something that people only understand at their own pace. Being shouted at, shamed by others, tends to reinforce the problem. It makes them defensive.
I get that venting can make the people who were right feel better, but that’s usually all it does.
For a good example, the left have been right about the problems in the DNC since 2015, and it has not helped whenever we point this out. Shouting at conservative Democrats has only made them more defensive, and alienated both sides from each other.
As usual, the solution is hard. Work towards building power and organisation from the bottom up, and don’t waste time hoping that the people who benefit from this mess will magically decide to do the right thing. I wish I hadn’t wasted so much time doing that.
Focus on what people need, pick three or four straightforward policies, and do everything you can to push those forward and promote your sincere effort to do so.
Don’t accept any funding from groups who want things you do not want, because that funding will be a chain holding you back.
Don’t lie.
Don’t. Lie.
People, the ones you want support from, aren’t fucking stupid. Don’t lie.

Gaza would have been worse, because Netanyahu would have kept up the bombing.
However, Kamala would never have defunded USAID, so those million and a half people who are dying right now from starvation and disease would be alive.
So, honestly, not voting for Kamala was a bad idea.
But it’s still because of the DNC corporate donors that Trump is in office right now, because they refuse to allow the people a progressive alternative.
Blame is pointless. I am talking about what needs to change. Shouting at reluctant third party voters will do nothing but raise your blood pressure.
Campaigning for the downfall of Chuck Schumer, there’s a worthy cause.

Honestly the illegal cab company has been the most useful for me. Sometimes my car breaks down.
Mind you, the best illegal service I ever used was Dream market. Very convenient for buying acid and weed.

FYI, Cyberpunk 2077’s DLC is the best I’ve ever seen, and thoroughly worth paying for. Unlike quite a few others, as you mention. It makes everything in the base game better, and the additional story is even better than the story in the base game.
- Comment on Alabama is forcing incarcerated people to work at hundreds of companies, including McDonald’s & Wendy’s. Unionizing is illegal. The state takes 40% of wages. 2 weeks ago:
The formerly enslaved people willing to speak out and use their names on camera for this doco are incredibly brave. They are going to be targeted for this, and they know it. The system does not want to stop making money, and it will do anything to protect the cashflow.
- Comment on do most people really like the taste and smell of eggs? 2 weeks ago:
I like the lemon speech, but sometimes it’s good to try and be original, fail horribly, and regret everything.
- Comment on do most people really like the taste and smell of eggs? 2 weeks ago:
Fucking love it. Fresh-cooked eggs are great, especially egg yolk.
However, if you genuinely don’t like em, don’t let anyone force you to eat them just because most people like them! Throw the eggs in their face! Demand a better thing that isn’t an egg! Build a house of pain made of egg-loving freaks! Stand on it, laughing maniacally, flamethrower trigger permanently on!
…or hopefully people will accept it when you politely refuse eggs. That would also be nice.

That sounds like it was the inspiration for the specific timeline of the Ghorman Massacre in Andor.

How much acid have you taken yourself? Because it definitely works when swallowed.

You could refer to a prostitute as a woodworker, depending on the clientele.

I guess we found the grocery maniac.
If they were tired and unable to communicate (happens to us all mate) they would have been okay with their cart being moved. Getting angry at the cart being moved, after saying it was okay to go, is the tell that this person was not capable of polite reason.

Glad the second encounter balanced out the first one. What a maniac.

The only thing that might be a problem is that milk and butter is at the back. But that is actually fine because everyone goes clockwise around the aisles, and there is room to pass, so it flows really easily. You go past all the basics you might need in like a minute.
