Two so far.

Remember, they have discovered 42 plots against Hitler.

And they didn't have nearly as sophisticated means of communication that time.

We're all simply traitors for being on this site.

We're traitors for having Signal installed.

We're traitors for voting against him.

We're traitors for deleting twitter, and Facebook.

We're traitors for being a registered Democrat.

We're traitors for supporting the rights of LGBTQ and minoties.

We're traitors because we dissent.

If the above is what constitutes a traitor, I'd rather die a traitor than participate in any support of the harm they will do.

I'd rather not die of course.

It's not a hard problem to solve. It's not hard to see the reasoning behind a desire for self driving cars. Anyone who lives outside of a big city in the US knows this.

Roads are already present. Traffic control is already present.

Tie the goddamn roads to the goddamn traffic control and have it coordinate the cars. The cars input their destination, and have radar to stop the car to prevent accidental collision.

The problem is people don't like that they can't get to their destination faster, they don't have the freedom of choosing their exact route, and they can't just rev their engine whenever they want.

It's not mass transit, but it solves the final distance problem.

I am aware.

350m people have been affected by it in the US. With the ties we have to Europe, it's already been happening.

The biggest problem is the damage is done.

The party holds the supreme court. House. Senate. Executive. Under the unitary executive theory, the rest of the federal government, while being completely inept, will be party members.

All we can do now, is collectively survive. It's a death cult. Steps we take to prevent the detainment, torture and death of our neighbors, friends, and family are the biggest fuck you to these people.

I don't know how we'll do it. But we don't do it by joining or tolerating them. We don't have to make it easy for them.

That's the Republican "symbol." Democrats are a donkey.

No, that's silly. You'll both be campers at "Liberty Rehabilitation Camp!"

So many innocent people. Is it normal to preemptively cry for those who haven't event been captured yet?

They may or may not know it.. They'll end up in kangaroo court, and sent to a camp and we won't find out what happens after that.

Dictators don't typically take too kindly to filibusters.

On the bright side, they don't get the civil war they desired.

What's a little systematic mass murder right?

Thankfully Helldivers prepared me for this. o ;

It's my favorite meme template by far. I'd been considering posting this for a while, but today it dawned on me that this was the appropriate time to make it.

 
 
 

This is what I do for work I guess

 
 

It will still break them if you try it

 
 

I'm talking like one person brought in all the money for a decade, then a divorce happens. Some of it makes sense - a house with mortgage, one spouse buys the other out of the house. Which is great, but if one spouse doesn't have the income to take a loan out to buy the other, does that mean that the spouse who does have the income has the choice to buy out or sell?

Similarly, things like 401ks and pensions I imagine you can't just take out half the cash in them and give that to their spouse. Or does that have to be a loan for the amounts in those plans?

Is it debt all the way down for both?

 
 

Let me set the stage: Newly single dad of a young kid. After COVID-19 I haven't done much outside of my home and taking care of my kid. I work full time-remote, and between the kiddo and leaving room for a hobby or taking care of the house, it seems like the only other thing I have time for is sleep.

The thing I know is that this is likely an issue with my anxiety and anxious attachment. The conclusion we've arrived at in therapy is that I gotta meet people. I apparently forgot, or don't know how to do that. Where to meet people. It's not a big city, but 200k-300k people in the county.

Maybe I'm looking for something of a strategy more than anything.

edit: thank you guys, I really appreciate it!
