It’s damned hard for a shotgun to end up useless. I restore old shotguns, have one from most decades starting in the 1890s. No matter how beat they were when they showed up, they worked just fine.

It’s about a military chaplain. That’s it. Look at the source. The headline is pure spin.

And you think you’re the only one so wise as to have noticed all that? Trump’s people have been working their ass off for this day. They’ve seen the weaknesses in Trump and the system and they’re already deploying their plans. If you think this administration will be Trump 2.0, you got another thing coming.

I imagine Germans were laughing at Hitler after the Beer Hall Putsch.

ONE guy said this and suddenly it’s an indictment of all young men, and young Trump voters. Jesus, you people are every bit as gullible as the conservatives that believe every FB meme they view.

“See! SEE! ALL libtards believe this! Told you!”

AR-15

Also, the 1911 class of pistols. Can’t go wrong with the OG Colt Government Model. As in, it can’t jam, fail to feed, fail to eject, fail to chamber, fail in any way.

Honorable mention goes to Hi-Point. Ugly and heavy fucking guns, but they function flawlessly and last forever.

If you’re American, you should pull the ejection seat lever.

Until very recently, Dubai was a desert wasteland with a few Bedouin roaming about. I’m not sure what I would expect for history or tradition.

Had no idea such a thing was possible!

It was a successful case that came at a cost. Sanders’ insurance covered the surgery itself, but she had pay $9,000 out of pocket for the implant. Her provider called the procedure “cosmetic.”

But god forbid the gubermint tell me what they’ll cover or not.

Fahrenheit 451 was fascinating for the sub-story about the TV walls and, “Oh look! The White Clown is on!”

Best friend held an acid party back in 1991 or so. From where we stood we could see all 3 TVs, 3 different sizes. He said, “Check it out. The attention people pay to the screen is directly proportional to it’s size.” Didn’t matter was was on screen, the larger it was, the more people stared, the less they talked. That’s really stuck with me.

And the parasocial relationships with the people are the screen foretold much.

Can’t imagine many would care about book burning today. I only know one other person that reads books, and few even “read” the internet.

Might have been even faster if world insect populations weren’t crashing.

Yep. If a material can be converted to energy there’s something out there that’s either already eating it or is only a few mutations away.

When I hear “liberal” or “left” now, all I hear is, “infighting little bitches with 1,000 messages and no focus”. I hear FAILURE.

LIBERALS

I feel I’m going to be saying this a lot… Women, repeat after me: “MAGA cut off. No pussy for 4-years.”

Nothing else, not even a pithy one-liner, nothing for them to grab onto or ague about, simply a hard NO. Can y’all please make this a real movement?

Wasn’t there a pair of warring African tribes where the women got together and told the men they were cut off until they made peace? May be misremembering a bit, but it worked, instantly.

EDIT: Looks to be more than one such story in Africa alone.

Seen hundreds of lemmy comments arguing exactly that.

Agreed. Apparently the mod does not agree.

I was gonna say, it’s like he’s not even on meth. Are these people even trying anymore?

“The success of our financial models doesn’t take the place of also getting the creative right,”

I read it as saying they didn’t take the creative angle correctly and that was part of the failure despite happy looking financial models.

The end of The Waltons.

“Goodnight John Boy.”

“What are they infected with?”

“RAGE!”
