  • I'll take emails over unnecessary meetings any day though

  • I think he had a stroke. I saw him in another thread saying some stupid shit too.

  • The geese are there to take back the rings.

  • I never understood what the dates were even used for. Like, is the date used for proof that I sent it before the deadline? Check the postmark on the envelope. Used to prove I know when the election is? Why else would I be sending a ballot. I don't understand what the proponents of that rule are trying to accomplish other than making a really shitty literacy test.

  • Alternatively, send me down in a shady submarine.

  • I'm torn and slightly confused. On one hand, good on them, I do enjoy some shitposting. On the other, the founder of NAFO is a nazi.

    Edit: Also I went to Truth Social and thought it was weird that I couldn't reject their cookies so I clicked in the link at the bottom for GDPR and it gave me a 404 lol.

  • I live in a very red part of Florida. They've all been pretty nice to me. Of course, I'm white, my baby is blonde haired and blue eyed, and I'm in the military. They usually get pretty surprised when I open my mouth and start spouting crazy commie stuff like Trans Rights are Human rights.

  • I worked with a guy that was a hard-core conservative, like just shy or real far-right talking points. Anyway he told me he doesn't watch the news. Not that he only watches fox news, I mean he doesn't watch any news at all. He gets his information from Facebook and tiktok

  • And it did. It started with coaxial. The fact that ethernet is now largely used in conjunction with UTP or STP doesn't add much when talking about the Ethernet protocol itself.

  • To be pedantic: Ethernet is a protocol so mentioning the medium used outside of a historical context is kinda irrelevant.

  • They self identify as feminists? Where? I couldn't find it in the article.

  • How it actually works is that the IRS doesn't known how much you need to pay. You provide your income and taxes already paid throughout the year then the IRS says "yeah, looks about right for what you made" or here's money back you paid to much or didn't pay enough. It only gets complicated when you have huge amounts of money.

  • Tinfoil hat time: they do know. They are attempting to normalize the U.S. model in Europe to drive down labor costs.

  • It sounds to me, that the issue is less with people reading, the article mentions that people do read, and more to do with a lack of critical thought about what is being read.

  • Tbh unless the source is Reuters or APnews, I do tend to look at the comments for a factual summary of the article.

    I just want the facts, not some websites shifty analysis interlaced with loaded language.

  • It's like the crime version of Buy, Borrow, Die.

  • Eustice, who served 26 years in the Minnesota National Guard, noted that young adults were the military's prime target for new recruits—currently Generation Z, or those born after 1997—and argued that growing up in the internet age had made them used to "immediate gratification."

    Oh look, another out of touch boomer. ItS tHoSe DaMn CeLlPhOnEs! Gen Z grew up watching America get involved in, then stay involved in, a deeply unpopular war. Gen Z grew up in an age where you can fact check someone on the spot and it makes it that much harder for recruiters to lie. They grew up in an age where half of the government is trying to drag the country backwards by any means.

    I am in the military. I overheard my leadership talking with a woman who wanted to get out. When they asked her why she said it was because of the Roe V Wade decision. "Why would I fight for a country that won't fight for me?" I don't blame her.

  • There are no moral absolutes, no foundational beliefs, no core values at the heart of Conservative ideology.

    I disagree and you kinda touch on it later in the post:

    If you view the world through this lens, any fight, any political topic, whatever it is you want, you are righteous.

    That is the core value. It's absolutism. They are good people therefore whatever they do is good. Or at least not bad. Abortions are bad, but if they get one, like you said, it's out of necessity. Not because they wanted to. Not like the degenerate left, who does it for fun on a whim.
