Soo, showing up in leftist reporter Mussolini’s home to debate his current thoughts about a new type of revolution, bringing a gun just in case. I don’t know if there’s any amount of distraction you could subject Benito to in order to prevent him from thinking up fascism. You’d either have to make him realize it’s stupid or kill him.

Addendum: don’t forget to practice with your handgun beforehand, and bring something to smash a windshield beforehand. This is why there were 8 failed assassination attempts on him.

Alright. Just a guess here, but the instructor put the hat on the gator. My thought is that they were attempting to use their hat as an impromptu blinder so they could wrangle it. Instead, however, the gator could still see, didn’t like what was going on, and bailed.

I appreciate the vibe, but this thing would be hilariously incompetent. It’d be like if all the sperm in a cum sock each individually gained sentience and tried to control the sock like a mech. That is to say - it would not be very effective.

I jumped over to logseq. It takes some getting used to, but overall logseq is working fine overall.

Huh, just got done watching “The Free State of Jones” and that checks all these boxes.

I doubt OP’d hold it against that film, though.

Having also been born and raised in the United States and having met a variety of people from various walks of life, I am of the opinion that he hit the nail square on the head. I’ve met kind selfless people, sure, but that is the exception to the rule most often.

He wasn’t, Charles was born and raised in Britain, but later in his career he visited the US for his journalist work.

Uhh, nah that’s not new. Charles Dickens explicitly talked mad smack about how greedy and self-enamoured Americans were, and their general worship of the wealthy. It was a severe kick in the head to his previous conceptions of America being a place of prosperity and opportunity.

No, hostile is exactly the word. These are not tactless mistakes - no one is living under a rock and unaware of the conflict of gender. They’ve either digested transphobic rhetoric and accepted it or they’ve understood the obtuseness of the binary and course corrected. Frankly, if you haven’t course corrected, you deserve hostility from the trans community imo.

The only reason someone would be asking what sex you are is if they are wanting to play cloak and dagger romance, where you never state your intentions and still somehow expect to get into the other person’s pants. That’s not a healthy way to romance and never was, and is likely a big reason for why such a large proportion of people get sexually assaulted in the US.

The issue of trans people in sports is a bullshit non-issue and has been for a while. It is exclusively a talking point to try and get laymen to agree that trans people should be regulated. It’s conclusion is the policing of all women’s bodies. It’s already been debunked to the moon and back, so if you don’t give a shit enough to even look up how stupid your claim is, You don’t deserve any amount of respect or tact in this conversation.

It’s mostly just a way of communicating the bizarre nature of infinite series and other problems related to infinity. Just fun thought experiments.

The question “are you male or female” in any convo outside a medical screening is also rude (and kind of a poor question in that context). The question framing is also explicitly hostile towards not-binary identification, as it’s assuming that the person’s biological sex matters more than their own self-perception.You should instead just ask their pronouns or how they identify.

It’s passive aggressiveness responded in kind with passive aggressiveness. The questioner also keeps pushing, so the gun is a very explicit and aggressive “BTFO and let me live my life, stop trying to force me into one of your boxes”

EDIT: Godspeed, mods o7

That’s pretty common actually. It’s called IWB CC (Inside Waist Band Concealed Carry). There’s also AIWB (Appendix Inside Waistband), sometimes just called Appendix carry. The big issue is that it’s not inside a holster. The holster gaurds the trigger so that an ND is more difficult. Holsters also have retention so you’re less likely to have a gun drop, where the gun falls off your person unexpectedly.

Do you work more than 12 hours to make a basic income? I think that’d be a large difference between wherever you are and the US.

Honestly pretty aesthetic way to write the ‘t’. Bet it feels great too.

Bruh, the noodles are there the whole time. I dunno what you’re on about /s

“jup” can either be “yup” or “hup” depending on which language you’re coming from. It’s definitely a fun spelling of the work though

It’s easier to understand if you say “wish into one hand, shit into the other. See which fills up first”

So you know when people Mick a butterfly with their hands? Yeah, just that one-handed.

Call a tailor probably

I know a certain firearms guy who’s pointed out gun culture’s hypocrisy for quite a while (most recent video regarding it).
