They get points for correcting, but not enough to warrant praise.

“We’ve been promoting gambling to children for years, and not a single one of us thought that was bad until a Youtuber with a large following pointed that out to us. So we stopped.”

Should be read

“Someone with the reach to hurt our bottom line spoke up”

Oh isn’t this the artist that does porn too?

Insane to think an in image attribution is advertising, but a direct link is fine.

Tax stamps (recently repealed)

For the longest time, if you wanted certain types of weapons, you had to pay a $200 tax to own that weapon. These include surpressors, full auto guns, short barrel rifles, and short barrel shotguns

The point wasn’t to ban these things it was to make them prohibitively expensive because “its the poor’s who vomit violence”. And this tax was implemented in the 1940’s where $200 was off 2 or 4 times the cost of the gun itself.

A different example is gun registries and concealed carry license databases. I don’t trust the police to act calm when interacting with me when they know I have a gun. There are special classes that CCL holders take often so that they know how to read a cop and keep them calm during a traffic stop or a welfare check because cops are trained to shoot first and are very scared of the masses.

Think of Paretti here. Shot dead for having a gun. People blamed it on the ICE agent being a violent fascist thug trained like that. I don’t see it that way. I think he operated like a cop who was told no consequences.

We have videos of cops approaching black men, committing the crime of being in white people spaces, who ask them if they have a gun, the man says yes, the cop tells them at gun point to pull it out and drop it, and then shoost the man when he touches the gun.

I don’t trust police to use surveillance state information like who owns what guns in a way that won’t get me killed. Its why I’m still hesitant to get any tax stamp items. I’d love an SBR, but then I am legally required to let the ATF “inspect” my home if they ask me to. I have to tell the ATF when and where I’m moving to if I change states.

Conscript is a better term

As a 6’2" this is my every day life.

I bang my head on nearly every door.

I have permanent brain damage and must be cared for regularly as my motor functions fail me from time to time.

I can barely talk coherently and I use an eye tracking keyboard to write like Stephen Hawking. This message will have taken hours to write.

But I’ve never had issues getting laid from dating apps because I’m 6’2"

Not AI slop but an art style I don’t like either

I’ve been in Florida this week. I have a Hispanic name and a dark complexion, so they keep trying to speak Spanish to me.

I’m not bad, but every time its happened its while I’m dead tired and I think I just can’t understand language for a second before I go

“Huh? Oh, uuuuuh, sorry. English please?”

Uber, car rental, hotel, doordash

Its great to be a native Spanish speaker in Miami

Shame I’m not that

Lots of good examples in this thread already.

The normal spread of -ists you’d expect from a MAGA supporter.

Didn’t he daily a M series macbook when they came out?

I don’t remember people being obnoxious about that

He did think she smelled bad. That was hilarious

The implication is that GOD CREATED THE UNIVERSE

So a guy imbueing a cracker with the spiritual energy of Christ feels a lot less impressive in terms of “magic we’re willing to accept”

I had seen someone complaining about Krita the other day and had assumed you meant that too!

Deeply sorry for misunderstanding you. I was mostly hoping this wasn’t another bigot maintained software or something

Genuinely, as neither a digital artist or hardcore Linux guy, why?

It looks good.

Imagine believing the earth is 6000 years old but that transubstantiation is bullshit.

Atheist here, interestingly he doesn’t!

God is bound by linear time apparently since he regretted making man as revealed to Noah before the flood.

You can’t regret things if you knew it would happen and you’re all knowing.

So he is demonstrably not all knowing and not all powerful.

But this does mean free will exists under christian logic. Which you can also just completely ignore since its not real anyways.

You have a point. Hyperbole is how we got here in the first place.

Its my favorite fact that absolutely no woman has ever fantasized about the hyper muscular super hero bods.

And in fact, I had no idea this comic artist was a man until this moment lol

Its something I’ve become quite judgemental of

“Loyalty” “ungrateful” “respect” “drama” and “hustle” are words I associate now with assholes who have nothing going on in their lives and are certainly the problem.

Its been so nice not being exposed to that pointless negativity thanks to deleting my Facebook.

Marketplace is just a continuation of our failed consumerist system by letting us recycle trash that should never have been produced but we justify because its “thrifty”
