I can picture it, just like Red Dawn, but updated with the new threat to society

GO, WOLVERINES!

Growing up, I didn’t like the taste of the yoke, and had a texture issue with the way most eggs were cooked. Supposedly I was also allergic but I think that was just a convenience. Now I love them. Every style

A big part of it was growing out of the texture issue. By the time I did that, I found had long dance grown out of any taste issues. But it’s also important that I was exposed to more ways to cook more eggs by more people. For whatever reason I was open to trying new eggs until I eventually went back and liked old eggs

Except egg salad. There’s just something about slimy egg bits drowned in a tub of mayo that seems too unpleasant to even look at

I knew they were birds but wondered what the bricks are for. It’s not an efficient way to drive away pests

At least Scouts teach firearm safety, which clearly ICE skipped in their rush to terrorize neighborhoods

You create a great story but violates K.i.S.S.

• not saying they got in means they can’t use it as evidence. Sometimes there’s still due process
• even if they can get into lockdown mode, it’s clearly harder than not lockdown. Why conspire to make it harder?

Yes, I’ve known many people on H1-B, including fighting for a few to be paid decently. Legally they aren’t supposed to be paid less but realistically many are, even at “good” employers. All it takes is categorizing them differently than someone else doing the same work.

While it makes sense that a work visa expires if you’re not working for a sponsoring company, it doesn’t have to be so disruptive to life. The expiration is way shorter than typical time to find another job - was it 30 days? Plus what about families? Is it reasonable to make a kid, say, leave school, leave friends, leave the only country they’ve ever known, with almost no notice? While you may claim that was the parents decision, what’s the alternative? Would you really ask them to give up their family to work in the us?

I’ve know people on H1-B ….

• who left family behind and only saw them once per year
• who put up with abusive employers just so their kid could complete the school year
• who’ve had to consider leaving their children with family so the could stay in the only country they’ve ever known

So we need to increase funding, to send them all to basic firearm safety training? Maybe the Scouts can run it for a merit badge - my kids knew better than that while still in elementary school school (slingshot safety training covered firearms years before they were allowed to touch them)

Nah she’s playing with fire. Maybe she “don’t talk gud “, but this is a favorite talking point of deniers. This is exactly the scenario of dismissing BLM concerns with “all lives matter”. Technically true but offensively misleading

Is she right? Sure, anyone can be racist, no demographic has a monopoly only on that. All lives should matter

But she’s absolutely wrong to bring it up in this scenario, it’s another case of “both sides the same”, or a what aboutism. She’s effectively dismissing their concerns

What protests are you going to? The overwhelming majority of people I know who goto protests are white and no one has had such a complaint (yes I don’t have a diverse acquaintance group). Yes I’m white Middle Aged Christian male, ticking all the boxes except “sociopath”, and I’ve always felt welcome

I especially note the BLM protests from a few years ago, as predominantly darker skin people, but I still never felt anything but welcome

That’s not a typical occurrence.

The reality is that most people have insurance coverage, even if the cost is excessive, paperwork is excessive and there are too many coverage exceptions. And most people never encounter corporate death panels.

This is yet another “us vs them” scenario. Enough voters can say “at least I have better coverage than ….” That there is less pressure to fix it and too many people afraid of losing what they have.

Personally I have decent enough insurance (while I’m employed) that I would likely lose on universal coverage. However I’m aware of the total cost to myself and my employer, which is entirely obscene, and I realize it’s contingent on being employed, in an industry known for regular layoffs. I’m part of the problem since I’m “good enough” to not push for better, but also the solution since I would vote for universal coverage because I’m not a sociopath nor an idiot

We’ve learned to expect a huge range of gibberish, but please tell me this is @[email protected]

I kind of like it. There’s something satisfying about giving my cart a shove and having a bunch of carts line up together with loud crashing noises

President jd Vance tries to start an oil war for profit, but there are no takers. US is the only country still relying on oil for transportation, with legacy manufacturers building ever larger pickups that can’t be sold anywhere else, protected by 200% tariffs on all foreign vehicles

Realistically, not only do I not want an 8k tv, but I might not get a tv at all, if I had to do it today. We rarely watch tv anymore. The brainrot is the same but we’re much more likely to use individual screens

Both great fun.

• Flying can be expensive and highly technical depending on where you are and what you fly. I had a blast while flying, got some good trips in, was able to give most of my family the experience. I gave it up when I had kids because of the priority change
• I suppose sailing too depending. I did some sailing out of Boston harbor and had a blast but they were bigger boats, more expensive. Actually the place I rented from organized extended trips down the coast and my regret was not taking any

I want a dumb tv with the price and and specs of a smart tv. Less is more

There’s also plenty of poverty, lack of investment in infrastructure, lack of protection of resources, and climate change to go around

If any of them are actual lawyers, the bar association also needs to take action, or be complicit. Lying in public statements , defamation, and abusing the legal system for personal gain should not be actions they condone

What do you want from it? How long?

• I always went with a barber for anything that looked like a traditional men’s cut, and that includes a variety of lengths.
• any special requests, non-traditional or significantly longer, a stylist
• I’ve had bad cuts from both barbers and stylists, all you can do is vote with your feet
• realistically all the old barbers are gone and new barbers feature very short modern styles that I’m not interested in, so I go with one of the cheap salon chains

US is still growing, still benefiting from growth and our economy needs immigration to offset declining birthrate

And no, the resources argument has been debunked many times
