Which is still better than reality.

I think someone at a hotel is more likely to be carrying fake genitalia.

So you're saying it comes with clowns in it?

Being ICE is worse because the victims are more likely to be shot or deported by these goons. Regular burglary just wants your shit with none of that hassle.

Keep in mind many of these tough guy internet warriors you are talking about are waiting for their chance to shoot the protestors. They won't be going after the government.

And those that are against the oligarchy that is transforming our aristocratic governing body and country into a dystopian nightmare... You expect them to just start shooting? Is that really the solution?

What then? All out civil war? Without international intervention it's pretty obvious which side would come out victorious. It's not those that want equal rights and a better country for everyone. It will be those that are willing to sacrifice everyone else for their own personal gain.

Maybe not this particular tree, but yeah. Shelves, house framing and siding, etc. We're a horrible greedy little species.

Goods Unite Us is another similar app, showing which companies donate to political parties. It does have some paywall issues but it's better that nothing.

I left during the first mass exodus. I miss the large active communities and the wealth of knowledge.

But I don't eat meat, I don't wear name brand clothing, I don't give evil corporations any more money to than is absolutely necessary (we all need gasoline), and I DON'T GO BACK TO REDDIT.

Even worse. Many of our ancient forests were cut into boards for personal profit.

We could always eat the rich.

Never took an oath, but I'd stand beside you.

Regenerative Agriculture / Permaculture

If you plan to lease out to a farmer, find one that won't fill it with herbicides and pesticides. And maybe look to only lease part of it while you work to recover other parts.

I'm looking to buy land that needs to be recovered and have the budget that will likely lead me to a place like this that doesn't have direct road access. Good luck!

Same boat here (PNW big bearded dude). I actually got handed a 'White Pride's card last week. Before I had the full beard nobody ever said racists shit to me unless it was accusatory. Now they think I'm on their side.

Doesn't help that I'm into survivalism, permaculture, and off-grid living. I'm constantly fighting the algorithm that wants to feed me ultra conservative bullshit.

Brings a new meaning to 'pack animal'

As a manual driver living in Seattle and driving a large truck, I can say it's totally unnecessary if you have the right skills. The handbrake start is a handicap unless you're Dr ving a vehicle with a worn out clutch.

I had a Rambler Ambassador that came with push-button shifting on the dash!

They can be very exclusive. I've seen first hand many gay men absolutely hate on people in the trans community. In my experience if you don't fit into one of their pre-assigned roles then you aren't welcome. Also, those of us that don't make our sexuality a primary part of our personality are often dismissed as 'others'.

Tribalism comes in many forms.

They aren't typos if you're uneducated, that would indicate they made a simple mistake. Those people are just that way.

Why would you let an extremist dictate how you live your life? First, just do the right thing. Second, by labeling them an extremist you are acknowledging that they are not the normal, not the majority.

Most of the rural people (including many farmers) just want change. Sucks that they fell or are still falling for the bullshit. But many farmers aren't Trump loving conservatives.

Support your local farmer. Have a conversation with them. Maybe you might actually understand each other and make a difference together. This is far better than giving the giant corporation your money and hoping they do the right thing with it. They won't.
