I'd rather have the option to join the armed forces than be banned from them like I am in the US.

You've ended with the conclusion without the evidence to actually back things up. It presupposes that these people aren't capitalists, so therefore they aren't capitalists. Which is a bad argument. You need to look at the Chinese economy and how it's structured.

This doesn't address that politicians are big business magnates are usually two different groups of people even if they're working together. But the heads of Tencent, Alibaba or other Chinese tech giants aren't going to show up there.

Let's go back to Obama. Was the US not capitalist in 2010 when billionaires didn't have direct power in the USA? No. It was indeed capitalist back then. That's what the economy looks like. (Well it's a mixed market economy, but that's another discussion, and yes I'm aware of the vast indirect power the billionaires have.)

The historical Jesus didn't really have anything to do with the book of Revelation. That was written after him. He still has some extreme teachings on things like divorce and some failed prophecy too

Hillary Cass is full of shit. Her big study crumpled under peer review. While not as much of a TERF as some other figures, she's still done incredible amounts of damage.

Oh that would be really cool! That allows workers to get real protections and establish industry practices for better safety. Better STD testing, less human trafficking, there's a lot to like about that

The wig is well worth it imo. I'm wearing one while my natural hair grows out. They shouldn't be scratchy if you get a good one, but you also need to learn how to maintain it. I use a wig with synthetic hair and it should last for a while, but I have to be careful around things like ovens in order to not have any damage.

You could try to use fabric softener to really soften up those cheap wigs. They do tangle easily unfortunately

The reason why trans people are in the spotlight isn't because we are new or anything. They just had a hatred for gay people instead. It has been the same fight for gender non conforming people today. Once the obergefell case happened, conservative forces needed something else to be pissed off about and so there was this the unknown narrative that they could shape. The first shot was fired a long time ago in the gay rights movement and it's a continuation of those same forces today

Naturally, the government cares more about genetalia than building up people

I really love the roads around here right now. The lane markers are now suggestions. You have five times the stopping distance and accelerating distance. People drive under the speed limit. Everything is frozen

That sort of thing goes on your record though. You don't simply leave the service without the government knowing. They will literally put a warrant out for your arrest

Digging through a meme that I probably found in 2014. I guess I kept it around for a reason Some people aren't really that smart, but they more than make up for it in heart

 

Apoligy for bad English

Where were you when USAID was kil

I was at home eating nacho

I hear my friend

"USAID is kil"

"no"

 

I gotta post something, so I'll post the mechanical calculator that the flight school wanted me to get. How it works is that you can set ratios in the dial and multiply them. In this picture, it's 60:10 (or 60:1.0) so I can take any number from the inner circle in minutes and find out how many hours that is equal to on the outer circle.

There are also other things on this calculator, including a wind vector calculator, and charts. Most pilots don't use these anymore, but they still wanted me to know how to use one
