Bombing the snot out of civilians was sorta de rigueur in WWII. If you want to get on your high horse, the Tokyo fire bombings were far, far worse. That sort of thing doesn’t go well for people in bamboo and paper houses.

And then you had the Imperial Army, who was so over the top even Nazis were like, “Maybe tone it down a bit?” So maybe chill on American “war crimes”, unless you have the stomach to read about Japan’s actions.

Funny thing about bombing civilians in the European Theatre, it was all a bit of a mistake. A German mission was a tad lost and bombed London. So Churchill said, “Oh yeah? Well fuck you too!”

Learned to throw my little cast net! Had it for years, never used it. The trick was watching videos on how to throw small nets. Don’t have a fishing license, no idea what I’ll do with this skill.

Americans tend to equate “county” with “poor” because they don’t have first-hand experience with country people. They might also be confused because ostentatious displays of wealth are considered tacky here in the South.

That actually makes sense. What if some little scammer like me won? I’d cash the check and start screaming.

“Fuck Trump! Fuck Musk! You two gullible idiots just paid me $1M and gave me a platform!”

A day or three after Hurricane Ivan finds me (white), my two roommates (white and Taiwanese) and a stranger (black) from around the corner playing cards on the porch. No power or water, it was all we had to do.

Black guy keeps getting us white guys mixed up. He gets our names wrong again and the other white guy says, “I’m John, he’s Jules.”

This guy is stumbling over himself apologizing and I cut him off, “It’s all good! I know we white people all look alike to y’all.”

An intense 2.54 seconds follows while everyone looks around the table to see if it’s OK to laugh. Then we just started howling. Whew.

That last bullet was my first laugh of the day.

Sure glad the mod removed this post. Which made me want to read it by clicking “source”. So I read it. Backfire much?

Y’all realize this is a bubble, right? I almost feel sorry for these investors, gonna have their ass handed to them in the coming decade.

Bingo. There are very few that understand this. Conservatives feel safe and liberals think guns will be a free for all. Both groups are morons.

As you said, if Trump gets in, they’re taking the guns from all of us. Ironic that our gun rights are safer under a Harris administration.

We already have wild pigs.

I can relate to every single thing you said, and I love it! But summer has never come close to killing me, but winter has. Hell, I got a touch of hypothermia on a lonely creek in Florida, in July.

Alien. Maybe my only 10 out of 10 movie, and not my favorite!

We’ve all seen it so many times it loses it’s luster. Wife had never seen it so I sat with her in the dark and watched it for the first time in decades. Jesus. She was about to tear through the couch cushion in stress. I knew what was going to happen and couldn’t peel my eyes off the TV.

Producing quality LEDs is a hella process. Producing shit LEDs is cheap.

There are several layers (7?) and a crack of a micron or three will suck the life out of it. Add to that shitty controllers and we get shitty LEDs. But they’re cheap!

I’ve got a couple of red LEDs that were made for the original IBM PC. They still work flawlessly.

Greetings from NW FL! I’ll be there on election day.

We mammals, and only we mammals, have nerve receptors capsaicin triggers. Birds don’t have such receptors. They happily chow peppers and poop the whole seeds all over.

Meanwhile, we mammals, who are supposed to hate the heat because we grind the seeds to death, have happily bred hotter and hotter peppers and spread them all over the planet.

I know of no such evolutionary win-win as peppers have pulled off. Genius.

You are very confused regarding the rank and file vs. officers.

These two pictures are not remotely close, and you damn well know it.

Are you one of those Russian-paid posters? You could be a leetle closer to the mark next time.

LOL at all the outrage on here. Vance knows what he’s doing. This is a clear signal to any waffling gay men that, “It’s OK to vote for us! You’re one of the good ones, one of the normal ones.”

Oh my friend! Ever heard of Iron Horse?

Simple, because he didn’t make a direct threat, didn’t direct anyone else either. Hell, he didn’t even call for her death. Trump’s using the mob boss language he learned in NYC.

“I think OP should have 9 guns pointed in his face for posting this.”

See how that works? All I said was that you should be threatened. Didn’t threaten action myself nor direct anyone else to action.

Speech like this is clearly stochastic terrorism, but the US really doesn’t have laws around it. I would hope there’s an incitement angle to this, IANAL, but our strong 1A rights make it sticky.
