MAIN POINT OF SELLING BELGIAN FIVE SEVEN PISTOL IS EXTREME PRICE OF WEAPON AND CARTRIDGE.

BELGIAN FIVE SEVEN IS WEAPON OF MAN WHO WEARS EXPENSIVE ITALIAN FASCIST SUIT OF HAND SEWING, DRIVE HUGE EXPENSIVE NAZI MERCEDES OF A.M.G. SHOP, SAIL ON MASSIVE YACHT TO GREEK ISLANDS. I THINK YOU GET PICTURE. BELGIAN FIVE SEVEN IS WEAPON THAT SAYS IS NO SUCH THING AS CONCERN OF MONEY.

FOR MAN WITHOUT EXPENSIVE SUIT, BIG BLACK MERCEDES, AND MASSIVE YACHT, BELGIAN FIVE SEVEN IS FOR PRETENDING OF BE RICH LIKE BLACK GANGSTER OF AMERICAN CITY WITH GOLD CHAINS OF LOW QUALITY AND JEWELS OF COLORED GLASS. WHEN YOU EXPLAIN USE OF BELGIAN FIVE SEVEN PISTOL IS ONLY FOR SHOOT MAN WITH BULLET VEST WITH CARTRIDGE ILLEGAL TO CIVILIAN, THIS MAN HAS NUCLEAR RAGE. WHOLE IDENTITY OF THIS MAN IS SPENT IN PRETEND PISTOL SHOWS HE IS RICH. IS VERY AMUSE.

FOR REST OF WORLD THERE IS 9 MILLIMETERS OF LUGER WHICH IS SAME WOUND FOR COST LESS.

When you can get a resin printer for less than the cost of some of the sets, wtf were they expecting?

If the fediverse starts gaining traction, you can bet the mega-corps will use every dirty trick they have to co-opt it or, if that fails, undermine it.

I still hate Bush, but credit where it's due: that was a good dodge.

Five years ago she was 85 and running for another six-year term. Even if she was decent health then, expecting to still be in good health at 91 isn't what I'd call 'reasonable'.

Part of ADHD. You forget things, beneficial or not. I usually realize when I'm on the way to work, then do the math of turning around for it, and how late I'll be if I do.

Angle of the spine. He had a whole bit about how if you lean at all, you're not manly, or something. Then he was selling shirts with the green line down the middle, because there's always a grift with these chuds.

Being railed, I assume.

Me? I'm a Ligma male.

The green onions, too. We have some growing in a container on our porch. They're super easy to grow, and are good to add some extra flavor to whatever poverty meal you're cooking.

Say it with me: The stock market is not the economy.

Ohm = measure of resistance in a circuit

Amp = total current flowing through a circuit

Volt = difference in charge between two points. Think of it like pressure.

Service industry workers getting harassed for their management's shitty decisions, as usual.

My default stance is that consolidation is bad, but Blizzard can't get much worse right now.

We don't have an overpopulation problem. We have with resources being hoarded by a small handful of billionaires.

I'm still trying to bring back Mega Virginia.

Yep. The one time Jesus got violent in the Bible, it was against the money lenders.

We never got rid of slavery. People like to ignore the full text of the 13th amendment: "...except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted". States just started passing laws to invent new crimes to selectively enforce, and slavery lived on in the form of prison labor.

Like, just the billionaires on an island? Who will do all the labor required to maintain their lifestyle? Because they sure as he'll aren't. To paraphrase Pratchett, it takes a hundred people standing in the mud to keep one person with their head in the clouds.

This. From my experience, the kind of people who are drawn to fascism, the thing they hate more than anything else is being laughed at. Make them into a joke, they're likely to just rage-quit.
