Wondered where I remembered him from, it was this juxtaposition of photos:

Additional context: around the same time Governor Walz (upper) was signing a bill for guaranteed school lunches the Governer of Arkansas (lower) was signing a bill rolling back protections on child labor.

I don't think it bodes well she sat with Putin at a conference, whether there was "language barriers" or not.

The Allies forced the German civilians to dig graves for the concentration camps so they could see the inhumanity their complacency and tacit approval caused. I've never appreciated my history classes more and I'm terribly sorry for the schools and children that are performing historical revisionism to well documented events.

Also, I went to the gatewaypundit site TFG linked to and read some comments. One commenter suggesting someone who disagreed commit suicide (and of course they knew how to bypass filters, so it's a tactic they use often). Folks are still suggesting the election was stolen then with the same breath saying to circle the ballot processing centers and not let vans through. The cognitive dissonance for these self-titled "critical thinkers" is beyond scary.

Edit: wanted to fact check my memory, here's a photo.

"Man who kicks ball well has stupid opinion, we printed it to ruffle your jimmies."

Fixed the headline there.

You guys remember Death Panels, the anti-Obamacare cry that legislatures want to get between you and your doctor to decide who can get care?

Every Republican who jumped on that bandwagon needs to eat crow and realize they flipped like a bitch when it suited their anti-abortion argument.

When Peterson pressed Musk for why he was switching to Trump, after long voting Democratic, Musk said that Democrats had become the party of censorship.

That's super ironic...

Feels like something the EU would eventually work on settling: making all tool manufacturers have a non-proprietary connector.

Seeing that picture reminded me his kids are biracial. So to add to this fatherhood moment: he also supports a man who doesn't respect someone of mixed heritage, the very thing his own kids are.

It's not cognitive dissonance, it's wilful suspension of the truth and the reason politics are driving wedges into our families and friends.

Lastly, I'm not a conspiracy theorist but if another country wanted to destroy us from within this seems like a good way to do it.

This image broke me, 95% of the trucks I see everyday are used as commuter vehicles with nothing in the bed. And the ones that do are hauling a single sheet of plywood. I plum forgot people use trucks to move stuff.

I had to drop Plex when it made me sign in for a locally hosted setup. I'd rather not have them in my library.

Replaced with Jellyfin as others here have, found every device in the house so far works with it and it streamed 4k to the TV from an RPI 4.

I said it in another post but these are the actual Death Panels Sarah Palin 'fabricated' (since hers was a huge lie). The government is actually standing between a person who needs care and their doctor.

I had one of those Vivent door to door folks walk up to me one day, garage open. I was polite enough but explained I had no interest in storing a video feed of my house on their servers as I'd like to do illegal things if I want. They assured me it was stored with "aes256 encryption" - which they expect most laymen to be wowed by - but what good is encryption if they own the keys and crumble to government requests?

Think about it - this isn't like, "oh I can't believe the news she died!" This is straight up: "yep, died of old age, totally expected." She was on the way out for a long time and everyone who supported her being there knew she couldn't fulfill her job requirements yet let her stay in office for political reasons. Which doesn't make sense to me either: her seat wasn't going to be filled by a Republican.

I'm willing to take the down votes here - I don't think this is an accurate or fair statement. Preventative maintenance makes many guns look new, I've fired hundreds of rounds through my guns and rifle and I clean them every time, they look great.

Plus the slide does have scuffs towards the front and lint/dirt on the slide grips. The polymer bottom is worn around the manufacturer text.

Ultimately, though, I'm not sure where this argument gets anyone. Let's focus on viable, provable facts about hate crimes and gun violence.

A Christian is like a little boy who really thinks Sky daddy is his actual father, that a literal virgin woman can give birth. But as he grows up, he realizes he can control a woman via her "duties". But in his pride and hurt for believing in a mystical diety with no proof he maintains this absurd position, dismissing science and using excerpts from the Bible to sustain his delusion. That is until he deconstructs.

Christians aren't dumb. They just don't know sky daddy doesn't exist yet. They just refuse to Acknowledge the Bible is stories written by man, instead believing in some twisted version concocted to line pockets of preachers and push vile political policies that control people not like them.

Typically a judge will thank the jurors for their service, and I find the time dedicated to that and the words that honor that service pretty awesome. These jurors truly deserve that respect considering the fear they must have to deal with if someone ever spills their names.
