… Ew. That’s a gross sentiment.

I’d love to!

Now if anyone wants to donate to my Moving Fund…

As former enlisted, I wonder if at any point while floating to the ground they thought to themselves “holy shit, I’m gonna die in a desert for pedophiles, why did I go along with this?”

At least one gets to think twice for now, but I doubt they will.

I think my wife has shown me a video of him?

I hate to make assumptions but honestly how many quadruple amputees can manipulate and shoot a gun and have made videos…

I’m sure it’s more than one because people sure do get curious as to how… But still.

Different state?

He’ll have to look maybe two counties over. Probably just gonna go to the county on the other side of the one he lives in.

Unfortunately, plenty of other countries would take him in, but it would be nice if no country would let his ass in.

Like someone else said, it’s not their mess to handle. However, I personally don’t want other countries to deal with him in any way. We just kick him out and he can figure out what to do from there.

On the one hand, I have about $1400 saved

On the other hand, I got fired yesterday…

So uh… Yay?

My parents have no savings at all and my mother got fired from her job 2 weeks ago, they’re both a few years from retirement age but definitely won’t be able to.

It’s been a fun year.

Last year most of the fields around me turned to slop as it was too wet for many weeks, and most fields couldn’t get equipment through the mud

While jailed and unable to pay bills, Lipps lost her home, her car and her dog, she said

Fuck suing, I’m going to prison for murder. I can live without the stuff, but if someone touches my dog they must not like living.

I’ve been managing to drag some of them further left, I think, through conversation about things.

A few are 100% on board with a union as long as I keep calling it “collective bargaining” and don’t use the scary U word.

A few are on board with most social safety nets, especially when they find out Healthcare would cost less than it currently costs them in taxes alone, let alone not having to pay for insurance anymore, but the second you call it socialism or use any sort of word like “welfare” then they panic.

Individually I think I’m breaking some of them, but collectively they’re fucking idiots.

There’s a pretty simple test, IMO

Ask a person “is bombing a school filled with children okay as long as the end goal brings about the end of the world?”

If they answer “yes” then just immediately drop them into a meat grinder and use the remains for fertilizer.

Maybe it’s my cynical side, but I genuinely don’t think people like that can be fixed, so while it might be considered “cruel” it’s better to just put them out of everyone’s (including their own) misery, a “nuthouse” just gives them a place to congregate and keep trying to spread their hate.

Dyshan Best, 39, was shot in the back last year as he fled from officers in Bridgeport, Connecticut. A report released Tuesday by the state’s inspector general found that the shooting was justified because Best had a gun in his hand and the officer pursuing him had reasons to fear for his own safety.

If I shoot a rich white man in the back who is running away from me and claim I “feared for my life” I’d probably get the death penalty.

My coworkers have already managed to blame Obama for making a “shitty deal” with Iran, and Biden for not “dealing with Iran sooner”

The rich Douchebags that control every country don’t give a shit if the plebs starve. They’ll never know hunger.

“Eat the rich”, as always.

You know, I was considering putting the potential downside of “one country might just have a young and jacked leader that can thrash all the old rich people” but figured my comment was getting too long for anyone to care to read.

I think at that point the people would just have to chuck him in an active volcano instead of a pit.

It’s mind-boggling that the entire history of war hasn’t been “our leaders decided they wanted a war so we tossed them in a pit with sharp sticks to figure things out and suddenly they decided war was avoidable”

We have more in common with a random American Crack dealer, a random middle-Eastern farmer, Chinese retail worker, South American factory worker, than anyone who leads major countries, anyone in the 1%.

I have no ill will toward any Iranian, in fact I’ve known quite a few immigrants and think better of Iran than most US states, yet my country leaders decided it was a good idea to bomb the fuck out of them. We should toss them in a hole until they can work together with the rest of us, yet here we are…

Surely imperialist countries with interests in an area wouldn’t go and lie about things???

Next you’re gonna tell me the US lied about WMDs in 2001…

Probably “medical examiner” or similar medical doctor that does work for the police to determine things like cause of death and other injuries possibly obtained while dying.

It’s not really heartbreaking when you know the reason the worst person you know is even talking is to try and distract from their own shit.

Doesn’t make it less true, just less heartbreaking.
