How can we be so sure? Someone’s gonna have to test it.

Around these parts, it’s usually a lifted pickup with at least one punisher decal.

It’s all part of their half-assed brainworm infested plan to make words meaningless.

They got associated with actual domestic terrorism, so they start trying to make the word lose its power.

If you repeat that your opponents are domestic terrorists for minor things, when more of their Good Ol Boy brand pops up, people can dismiss it easier.

Yeah I got mildly excited when I read the title, and now I’m just mildly irritated.

Good for pc players though, it’s something!

This keeps getting shared on the fediverse, it’s literally just spreading misinformation.

Poor Brian. I hope he gets his void filled to his liking.

Oh my god if I could take a train to work I would be soooooo happy.

1: trains

B- I could leave slightly later and be relaxed most of the time

III• if there’s dense fog like today or severe weather, I don’t have to stress out for 30 minutes going 20 in a 55 because I can’t see 150ft ahead of me.

I’m learning a bit of sign language since my wife will likely be fully deaf inside 10 years, and one day we were in a food court and I saw two people arguing in ASL.

One of them started getting larger and more abrupt with their movements and the other interrupted to sign “Don’t yell at me.”

I wasn’t paying enough attention to know what they were arguing about, but it made me giggle a bit at the phrasing.

I used to work in a warehouse that made a HUGE deal about the employees using the proper recycling bin so the company can get a nice check from somewhere or other for “going green”

This warehouse recieved thousands of pallets every day.

Each pallet is wrapped with hundreds of square feet of plastic wrap.

Each box is individually wrapped with maybe 10ftsq-50 depending on size.

Each box contains goods in plastic bags. Many of them with plastic clamshell packaging.

The products get unwrapped, and placed in larger boxes on shelves.

When the items get distributed to stores, the items were put in plastic bags, boxed up and wrapped in plastic wrap, boxes placed on pallets that were automatically wrapped by machines in hundreds of square feet of plastic.

None of the plastic from the warehouse floor is separated from the general waste.

Remember, it’s your responsibility to reduce waste.

Ooh, sweet! A middle eastern country that Americans can name is making improvements!

Military Industrial Complex: absolutely fucking not

It’s crazy how quickly things can improve when global superpowers aren’t fucking carpet bombing them.

It’s “Jesus take the WHEEL” not “Jesus take the YOKE”

I think of the shareholders, board, c-suites, and all of their friends every time I gaze upon my Guillotine.

A coworker of mine was dangerously close to connecting some of the dots yesterday.

He started complaining about how things are getting more expensive, and how the company we work for has started buying things from overseas because even with tariffs it’s cheaper than buying American made, and then came the stunning part.

He said “They say they have to raise prices because of terrorists or some shit, but how do WE know if that’s true? How do we know there ARE any terrorists and it’s not just all bullshit made up by politicians and the news to justify raising prices so they can get rich.”

And then he took a hard right turn and added that “all those goddamn r****d democrats in congress” are to blame.

So close.

“well obviously he didn’t mean that”

5 minutes earlier AND 5 minutes later

“we love him because he says it like it is and talks plainly”

Cognitive dissonance is a requirement for fascism. “the enemy is both strong and weak”

Me, staring at my alarm about to go off in 5 minutes after tossing and turning for an hour: “this is the single most comfortable spot in the universe and I am so sleepy now”

To many people nowadays, the actual job itself doesn’t matter, it’s the fact that it’s a job and it pays.

It’s 1am an I am deeply offended by such a personal attack.

The day an automated system reduces my pay for socializing all of 3 seconds to myself is the day I begin welding steel plates to a bulldozer and go for a drive through upper mansgemt offices.
