My parents didn't just refrigerate bread. They stuck excess bread in the fucking freezer.
Edit: guess I've been sleeping on the freezer bread thing. Y'all seem pretty sold on the concept.
Yeah, that's fair. I mean, I hadn't heard of this idiot, and I've heard of Andrew Tate, so I didn't place them on equivalent footing in any sense other than ideology. And yes - I'm a big fan of map painting games, like EU4, and the sheer quantity of people who are overtly racist in that community is fucking staggering, so I get it.
Oh, trust me - I wasn't putting his shitty views on the HEMA community in general. I'm friends with a couple of people who like to put armor on and bash the shit out of eachother. I don't understand it, but they're good people, and they wouldn't do shitty things like gaybash, like these fucking chodes are doing. So basically, they're, like, right-wing LARPers? Like, they strongly identify with the crusades because they want to fantasize about killing people different from them?
God, I loved that game. I have spent so many fucking quarters in pizza parlors on that shit.
I'm an elder Gen X. Who are these people? Why should I care about them? Does their limited literacy and obvious homophobia have an impact on the wider world in general?
Edit: Sorry; I didn't notice the youtube link initially. I am shame.
Anyway, I'm like 30 seconds in now, and it's two fucking morons in shitty Costume City versions of chain mail talking about issues they're wildly unfamiliar with, and somehow they've got, like, 100k followers? WTF? Am I just taking crazy pills?
Edit edit: So, like, are these chodes like the Australian version of Andrew Taint?
You can't spell manslaughter without laughter.
Well, not that we needed one, but I really appreciate you giving us a reminder for why we should never ever make you president, Mittens. It's very thoughtful of you.
So, Kobach et al's complaint is that the plan to replace lead pipes is underfunded and so probably won't cause enough of an impact on lead levels in drinking water to even bother, and yet the reason it's underfunded is because Republicans specifically voted to not fund it properly. So instead of funding it 100% (or close to 100%), they chose to only fund about 1/3rd of what it would cost to replace all of the lead pipes.
It almost seems like Republicans want potential voters to imbibe neurotoxins that will negatively impact their IQ, harm their ability to concentrate, and make them more easily swayed by emotional appeals. I wonder why that could be?
Others are in favor of their Cybertrucks developing orange stains, saying that they’re looking forward to the patina the stainless steel may develop.
LOL - that's some straight up 🤡 shit.
The guy went down a rabbit hole that eventually led to him deciding to kidnap and/or murder a sitting US Representative because of a fucking youtube comment? Jesus Christ. This fucking country...
Edit: fixed her job title
So this article makes it seem like he's got dementia and was under the spell of a delusion when shooting his partner & daughter. But it's written so vaguely that it's hard to know for sure. So I found another article that seems to be much more clear about what happened:
TL;DR: 66-year-old man is in rough shape; has Hepatitis B, Emphysema, and COPD, and needs an oxygen tank. His partner (a much younger woman), their daughter together (8 years old), and his son from a previous marriage (18) all came to his house. The article doesn't say what happened in the conversation, but he apparently became enraged thinking they were trying to get him out of the house. My guess is that they were trying to get him to go into a care facility due to his many, many ailments.
Dude saw red, grabbed a gun, and started blasting. Shot his partner, then tried shooting his son, missed, and hit his 8-year-old daughter in the back as she was running away from him.
So it sounds much less like dementia (though that could still very well be a factor), and more like a miserable piece of shit reaching for a gun first to solve all of his problems.

It'd be wasted breath, really. Trump will never step down, because he's trying to remain out of prison. If he loses, then there goes any chance he had at pardoning himself for his numerous crimes. So he's not only the far and away favorite Republican candidate, but he's also highly motivated to stay in the race for personal reasons. No appeal to his sense of patriotism will work to get him to step down because he has no patriotism. He's in it for himself and himself only.
Biden, on the other hand, is just the default Democrat guy because he's the incumbent, and the party figured that'd be enough to win, and so haven't been trying very hard. And that has everybody terrified, because if he loses, then we get another 4 years of Trump, and probably never get to vote again. Basically, people are calling for Biden to step down because the stakes are way too high to fuck around.
