Really? Because I predict that millions of Americans wont be voting Democrat or at all because of the utter incompetence of the Dems. Not to mention the immediate bending over for the GOP after winning 3(?) Elections, reopening the govt in exchange for a promise, when the right was in the worst position it has been in decades and just when they were really feeling the heat.

Plus, we all want the democrats to be the ones to make reasonable laws we can all get behind but they dont do that. Like the "high capacity" magazine bans. In a time where more leftists are arming themselves than ever before, nobody wants that. They keep warning of a fascist takeover while simultaneously disarming citizens. Or the fact they voted to fund the military to the tune of $1 trillion. Or the democrats that voted with Republicans against youth trans care. Or their response to most republican shenanigans, a strongly worded letter.

Democrats have been doing nothing but fumbling the easiest victories they could ever have over and over again. Idk how anyone can expect democrats to win anything with this old guard establishment demo still in power.

Say what you will about the GOP, and I hate what their doing as well. But at the end of the day they get their shit done. For better or worse, at least they dont just sit on their power. I wish I could say the same about the dems

Were the only country that states in its law on the ICC/Hague that we will invade if any American is held tried or convicted there.

Ive never really saw it like that. I felt it was more a point about "intelligence" breeding uncertainty and using logic to find the "perfect time". Worlds on fire? We wait. Weird guys is pres? We wait. Were not financially stable? We wait. And then they waited until it was too late. Meanwhile "less intelligent" people, although I think just more irresponsible, are banging out a bakers dozen per couple at a rate that the waiters can't possibly hope to come close too. That combined with societal problems like lack of education, corporation looting of our country, cuts to programs that care for people and children, especially making sure kids go to school and dont get left behind. Its all gone, and the few places you can find it are also the places who look at the world and decide to wait, resulting in worst birth rates.

All this combining to make a situation where breeding with reckless abandon is rewarded by society, because the "intelligent" humans are so seldom having kids, that theyre outnumbered 13 to 1 at least. Thus the world goes about how you'd expect.

The thing I dont like is the weight of intelligence in this movie. Yeah its a main theme, but there's so much nuance. Fish are great at swimming, but can't climb a tree. My boy that had 13 kids iirc was a football star in his school, probly knows how to fix things, cars plumb8ng electrical etc etc. Or has some other skill that he excels in. I dont like that humans that dont know calculus and trig are stupid. Smart couple probly can't fix their stove, probly get take advantage of by the "stupid" at the car dealer. We'll whos stupid know.

I think there's more nuance to this film than meets the eye, but because media literacy is at an all time low, people only see it as haha stupid people (the people im already against are the stupid) and they destroy society. I dont think thats all this movie is

Just my two cents, sry for the wall of text.

Having a kid is the most selfish thing one can do with their life. You're saying "I like myself and my partner so much and think we're so good for the world that im going to make a mini copy of me and my partner, because the world needs more of us"

Can't force you to have kids, the kids aren't asking to be conceived or born. Only person making that decision is you and its a selfish one.

I say this as a father of two girls

The proposal itself shouldnt be a surprise, when it happens should.

Like, you should know they want to marry you before you do it. But the whole ceremony of a formal proposal can and should be left a surprise!

I feel like there's a difference between constructive criticism for a dm and outright shifting on their attempt. I feel the group did the latter

I wont lie about still being a bit salty, especially since it was our 3rd round with new dm, the group had a few people (me as well) who wanted to dm. So we kinda took turns. I played through the good and bad of the other campaigns, dont care still had fun. I just dont know what changed when it was my turn.

Its easier to paint all gun owners as reckless at best, criminals at worst, when you have dumbasses like this walking around. Truth is, the vast majority of american gun owners I've met have been strict followers of the 4 rules. If I ever meet someone who isn't, they immediately become strangers after I leave the situation. Ill try to correct behavior, but not everyone is receptive. Thats where common sense gun laws would be great to have, like proving competency with a firearm and the safety rules especially, every year if you want a ccw. Unfortunately, the ccw in my state is an online course with 10 questions at the end, and fees and a waiting list to get your physical card. I could (and did, but did not carry until confident with my setup) get this ccw without ever having fired the gun I intend to carry, much less handled it safely.

Also, for people less familiar, if you are ever handed a firearm, IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO CLEAR IT YOURSELF. Just because someone clears it in front of you, does not make it clear. I dont care if the person field strips it in front of me, the first thing im doing after they hand it to me is clearing it myself.

Gun owners reading maybe? Please be more reponsible/safe with your firearms. Be as safe as you think you should, then be a little safer. There's countless little things to work on, like not breaching the fire line or responsible clearing before leave line. We all take a huge responsibility when we decide to carry concealed. You have to delete your ego, you can't be short fused. There's no room for prejudice, or stupidity. You alone are responsible for what comes out of your weapon, and if the responsibility is shrugged off, tragic things happen that you have to live with. Don't mess around, stay sharp.

Treat EVERY GUN as if its loaded (imagine that rounds can magically appear if you set it down or take eyes off, because they sometimes do!) Keep your finger off the trigger until ready and safe to fire. (Keep your booger hook off the bang switch!) Do not point your firearm at anything you are not willing to destroy (whether youre firing or not, whether its loaded or not) Fully know your target and all things behind it(bullets have a tendency to keep going)

I got roasted so hard by my last group when I tried to first time dm tyranny of dragons (to be fair, the first part of it is combat heavy and I didn't handle it as well as I could have) and it triggered my anxiety about it so hard that I dropped from the group and havent played in 5 years

I mean I think its cool too! The amount of time I've had to drive with a drink between my legs because of not enough cup holders is crazy, its super cool that it not only fits all the drinks, but the carrier as well. Less of a chance of spillage. Stuff like this wouldve been a gamechanger when I was doing food delivery gig work

Any streaming piracy site is def the worst, like bingewatch.tv

Just use adblockers

Damn yall are openly hostile towards this OP who just wanted to share something they thought was cool. Im glad none of yall have ever ridden in a vehicle that's oversized for what you need and have never not once drank anything from a paper or plastic cup. Good for you.

Coca cola down the street from my house dumps tons and tons of pollution into the air, water, and land of America with their manufacturing, but this guy is the problem.
