The heritage foundation has a plan. Why come up with your own when someone has already done the work for you?

I vote for this to become official.

I think it started with people saying "I would like to (do something very illegal) to (some person) in Minecraft." Thinking that saying "in Minecraft" would shield them from any repercussions because they only wanted to do it in a simulated environment. Eventually some people would just shorten it to things like "...in Minecraft" and leave the obvious part unsaid.

Don't take my word for it. Even though your instance is defederated from them you can still go to hexbear.net and search locally for posts about Ukraine.

That shit kills me. I was reading something on hexbear about some recent anti-gay stuff in Russia. It was all about critical support, and not just Russia. They also talked about critical support for Nigeria, despite them having the death penalty for gay people, because they're "anti-imperialist."

Why doesn't it go the other way? Why can't you give "critical support" to countries making strides in human rights while criticizing their economic policy?

To me, their priorities seem pretty fucked up. Between exploitative economic policy and killing or imprisoning people for existing as themselves, I know which one I'm going to be "critical" of and which one will cause me to refuse support for a country in any way.

I love these guys, and all the conspiracy or conspiracy adjacent people (as long as they're mostly harmless.)

I'm jealous of all of them. The world they live in is so much more interesting than mine.

No, you made a claim. A claim that, so far, is unsupported.

I'm simply asking for one scene, outside of your own mind, where these things actually happened.

I only watched it once. I could be wrong. Please refresh my memory.

No, I'm asking for an example. Just one.

I'm not asking for any more arguments. I understand your position completely.

And what about those assholes that never wanted to pay? Just pay the kid you cheap ass. I see your cars, your lights are on, I know you're home motherfucker.

I identified so hard with that "I want my two dollars" kid from Better Off Dead.

The footprints of chargers and gas stations aren't the same though. A lot of places I go have a row of 8-10 spots with chargers. No added footprint really, just installed at the front of the spot. Compare that to an 8-10 pump gas station, even without a convenience store. If you removed a gas station and replaced it with rows of spaces with chargers I think you'd get more cars through over a given period of time.

Normally you're right. It seems like every day there is a new revolutionary battery tech with no real estimate when it'll ever be in use. But in this case, according to the article, deliveries will start next month which means they're already in production.

So I can gamble, drive an exotic car on a track, operate heavy machinery, and fire automatic weapons all in one weekend? I think it's time for a trip.
