  • America Has Become a Digital Narco-State

  • That's an oligarchy, not a "narco-state". The poor attempt at scaremongering just discredits the rest of the point and anyone else trying to make the same point.

  • TIL that actor Tim Curry is on a wheelchair since 2012

  • That is not Tim Curry. Some freaky deepfake shit.

  • there’s literally zero downside to having them in your car. Literal worst case scenario is that they simply do nothing.

    That IS a major downside. Relying on something that won't work in a life-or-death situation wastes precious time. Knowing they don't work is important so better alternatives can be prepared and planned for.

  • That was the case when these tools were effective. Has your research shown it still holds true? I would assume the same changes that made the glassbreakers ineffective would do the same for those ceramic shards.

  • ‘Humbly, I’m sorry’: Marjorie Taylor Greene says she’s turning a new leaf after years of divisive comments

  • Oh fuck off. The hateful bigot senses an opportunity to split off for her own benefit, nothing more.

  • Empathy requires considering peoples' feelings other than your own. I don't see that here, just a begrudging sense of obligation and, based on op's other comments, ownership/possession.

  • I wouldn't call what he said "empathy".

  • What are some happy moments of your childhood? Have you ever felt that happy again in adulthood? Ever tried "re-living" that moment later?

  • When I was very young, my grandfather treated my family a several day trip to a theme park. It was obviously a blast for little me, but there was one ride that I was a few inches too short for. Bummed me out. The next morning as we were getting ready for another day, my mom called me over, took my shoes, and started stuffing them with tissues, determined to get me those extra inches. Not too long after, we went on that ride not once, but twice! It was a blast.

    I doubt I'd face the same issues nowadays, so probably not much chance reliving it, hah.

  • Never bothered with the "need" to only participate in the coolest, newest thing. It's all just meaningless excuses to shit on others and sooth their own egos. Those kinds of people aren't worth worrying about.

  • Marjorie Taylor Greene Reportedly Plots 2028 Presidential Run as a 'Real MAGA' Republican

    Jump

  • I don’t think her recent forays into sanity

    Her insanity and bigotry syncing up with some key issues isn't "sanity". It's random chance.

  • Eh, it doesn't have to be the most stupendous, amazing victory for women to be important and good. Two female candidates would still be a huge deal, assuming proper primaries were conducted. That said, I would be astounded if the Republican nominee is a woman any time soon.
