That’s an interesting angle on it, can you say more? Sorry to be obtuse.
Most people on both sides are falling completely for the “Israel did this without U.S. knowledge. The U.S. is thinkin’ about it, though!” As if Trump and Netanyahu aren’t butt buddies and this isn’t another perfect opportunity to ramp up the military, etc. Now you’re in a “state of war” and have even more “reason” to hassle brown people. But the debate will center for days around this pretend, “maybe we won’t even get involved,” which I suspect is the whole point. Israel doesn’t act without us–we literally sustain them. This is just us using them as the scapegoat so that we can shrug our shoulders and pretend we had no choice. It’s transparent. But I’ll own it if I’m wrong.
I like it. But I thought we were the pawns? I guess we could be pawn hippos, but that seems way too OP. Can you imagine an army with a frontline of armored hippos?
“No, no, I don’t have a boner! It’s just like that!”
He could fuck himself in the belly button.
Saw a jailbait post/entire community (“fauxbait”) pop-up just yesterday. It’s like watching it all happen from scratch.
Could also explain a lot of MAGA confusion.
No, I haven’t, and I’m sure you’re right. My only experience of it is the interstate through it.
Huh! That’s actually really cool and does give it a little more pizzazz.
I’ve probably posted about it here before, but I lived in more than one trailer park and once stayed the night at a friend’s trailer in a completely different trailer park. While outside, boys from the other side of the trailer park came over and started picking a fight with my friend’s side of the trailer park and then a pinecone war ensued.
I also lived in a very ghetto house that produced my fear of cockroaches. I can’t even. All kinds of stuff happened there, but most to the point, years after we moved out, there was a murder-suicide, then it got struck by lightning and mostly burned. I drove by as an adult and part of the tree in the yard had fallen on it. I guess it wasn’t all bad, maybe, if I think back. Nobody ever sees my basketball skills coming, for example.
Hang in there, friend. I can say this much: you all sure do have a lot of corn. All of the stories are true. So.
They should update it to include legislatures, private military contractors, etc… It really hasn’t kept up with the times, if I’m honest.
I lived in Utah for 6 years and loved driving through the empty parts of Utah and Colorado. Even Nevada sort of a little bit. I found it a far more stark, imposing, beautiful emptiness. Like “I could literally die if I broke down here…that’s so cool.” I remember one time driving out from SLC to Dinosaur, CO for the dispensary, and that stretch was just stunning. At one point, I had two dust devils spinning off to my right, and a rainstorm way off to my left over these lush, Shire-esque rolling green hills. I miss the west already.
Doesn’t matter, had sex.
Consider seeing a doctor?
It’s basic science.
Unfortunately, “I drove through Nebraska twice” is the whole story. It’s impossible to capture how Twilight Zone-esque it feels. It just never ends and never changes. There’s nothing. Corn and nothing. More corn and more nothing. I was recalling how a few months back, some of my dumbass nephews were running their mouths about going to a college football game IN NEBRASKA. AS VISITORS. And stirring up shit. And that makes me laugh, because I can’t comprehend the kind of sheer numbness necessary to live in that place. It just feels like 1 out of 5 serial killers should be burly, corn-fed, bored-as-shit Nebraskans, but I don’t believe that’s the case?
Speaking of which, a recent Android update (I know I should change OSes) got rid of the little Lemmy.world web app icon thing I had installed and I haven’t been able to get it back, so far. Does anyone know how to fix that? That was working great as my RIF replacement. I read it all again and I’m such a grandma. :(
