  • Wagner Group Rebellion

    On 23 August, Prigozhin and nine others including Wagner co-founder Dmitry Utkin were killed in a plane crash as his private jet traveled from Moscow to Saint Petersburg.

    First rule of a coup... Burn the ships.

  • Brother, I went camping twice in the South and both times, I had some serious weirdos on the trail. One redneck asked us if we "had any guns on us". What?

    My camping partner said, "If we pull it out, we use it." And the dude ran off.

  • When I lived in a small town, the MAGA neighbor showed my mixed family how many guns they had to "remind them". He sure didn't like it when I told them I conceal carry because of people like him.

  • But in the hypothetical scenario where a bear or 30 boars came at you... You'll wish you did have a gun! /s

    I am pro-gun but people who use wild animals as an excuse for buying handguns are exhausting.

  • I lived in different countries. Many are friendly with actual neighborly caring folks. Like leave your car unlocked safe. Like if you lost your phone outside, someone will kindly put it somewhere safe. Countries with good safety nets and a government that wants to help people.

    Here in America, I'm not afraid of the pickpockets or petty theft. The biggest threats to my family's life are by police officers or ICE, all because of the color of their skin.

    I've been to protests where everyone was peaceful and it was violently dissolved by police. Where I've been to protests which had hired security guards packing guns protecting protesters, and the cops were on their best behavior.

  • Getting arrested.

    I wasn't arrested, but held for questioning because my car was near the scene of the incident. So I had to wait there for 30 minutes and give a statement.

    Those 30 minutes, I was having a ball thinking creatively.

  • Yep! The monopoly is strong.

    Sometimes, the item directly from the company website use Amazon to ship it.

  • That's a lie. Every time it happens, they slap them on the wrist and sends them on their way.

    Korea on the other hand locks them in prison while citizens rough them up.

    Japan needs to stop letting "nuisance" folks get away with shit.

  • America is quickly becoming an excellent playground for rich people to test their ideas thanks to loose laws.

  • Why are they smashing them? Is it to steal their rich raw materials hidden inside that you can sell and are impossible to trace back?

    Why would anybody smash flock cameras, ones that have hundreds of dollars of raw materials hidden inside of them that you can sell and are impossible to trace back?

  • Absolutely incredible.

    A lot of stadiums in the US were built by stolen tax dollars that are given to billionaires. We should take it back and do this.

  • Having worked in fentanyl crisis towns and then have the neighboring towns proudly proclaim how great America is and how much FREEDOM we have... Totally understandable how Europeans look at us.

    Hell, I'll never forget the look my european coworker gave me when I told them we have a two week parental leave and it's a fire-at-will state.

  • Yeah, that top image is a fantasy.

    I currently have three USB ports, and one of them is used for power. 😭

  • I wouldn't mind China arresting fox news for being political agitators. Those "Press" badges are fake.

  • Many of them jump ship and keep working as CEOs, dooming dozens of companies as they bank millions in pay.

  • They were trying to do a Elon Musk/Twitter and bullshit their way from the beginning.

  • I don't think that's helpful. You can tune it out because you have the privilege to do so.

    While your neighbors and friends who are feeling the pressure of all of this. My family is colored. No amount of tuning it out is going to stop a ICE agent from entering a restaurant and demanding identification.

  • Absolutely! For the social workers, Some of the homework came off like... Surface level? Like "Name a time you felt sad" and "Have you ever felt depressed?"

    I'm 40, not an elementary school child. I went through two financial crisis, the president called a woman reporter a bitch just a week ago and got away with pedophilia, my healthcare expenses is over $20k a year, and I'm in fear of my friends and neighbors who aren't mayonnaise colored.

    Totally agree with being secretive. That's normal. It takes a lot of trust to get me to go beyond "I feel sad because I didn't have any oat milk for my coffee" or whatever.

    That's what great therapists do. They drill with really perceptive questioning, they know when to push for clarity, they know when to change topics to lower your guard to lead you to discovery.
