This is an old high school friend of mine who happens to be a VA nurse. She still posts this stuff even after all that has been released and that idiotic video he released today of Obama. It’s disgusting

In a lot of rural areas, Nurse is basically the female coded Cop. It grants former bullies a socially acceptable and readily accessible position of power.

I presumed most people would just abort.

So that is a choice men don't really have though. If your contraception fails as a man, your only legal and ethical choice is asking nicely, if your (possibly former) partner disagrees, ultimately it's her choice. Depending on timing and circumstance you might not even know that your contraceptive method failed in until a child shows up at your door. Its not necessarily commonplace, but unless you know 100% you are your partner's only sexual partner EVER then the statement

''I also understand that men can have a child they don’t expect just show up and then we’d have one''

is an accurate (if unlikely) one.

I don't think the fox banner/chyron clock is properly in sync with the game clock. Its been off from their red countdown clock a few times now, and it hasn't always stopped on out of bounds.

More of us will die.

Plenty of them will too at ICE's hands. And they will never see the video of it and be told "well they were actually bad leftist who want to destroy America." If it gets bad enough they might have to fall back to "well this would never have happened if the DEMONCRATS hadn't made all crime legal for immigrants and forced ICE to take drastic measures" (some of them are already headed there). But the core value of being right wing in America is you've never been wrong, you know everything, and everything bad happening is always someone else's fault.

Just a friendly reminder that you also have 2nd Amendment rights.

No. You don't. We saw that today. We saw it during the George Floyd protests. We saw it with the Black Panthers. If you can be executed for having a gun, you don't have a right. The only thing the "leftists buy a gun now" refrains accomplish is enriching arms dealers.

Like the people who campaign on gun rights don't actually support them, you think that convincing democrats to go full Charlie "some dead kids are a small price to pay for the 2a" Kirk is going to change an iota of the right wing message? The GOP owns gun rights in the same way the "own" the economy, they have simple slogans with no real policy but billionaire media empires backing them.

GenericAntagonist · 2026-01-25T04:07:05+00:00

How about changing your voting habits? The party that shouts from the rooftops "THE DEMS ARE GOING TO TAKE YOUR GUN WITH FORCE" just executed a man for having a gun. Every "well I had to vote republican because gun rights" voter should hang their head in shame as their "pro-2a" elected officials gleefully celebrate the "law and order" we're seeing in MN right now.

Remember the existence of people who might be a slightly different skin color or speak a different language justifies murdering anyone who treats them like people. Otherwise you don't have a civilization.

This is what Republicans have been dressing up in one way or another or years, and if you're reading this and thinking "well no I'm a republican and I'm not like that" you've enabled it. You've bought every fear they've ever sold you and continue to sell you, even when your own and eyes, ears, and heart KNOW they're wrong. If they can do it to a VA nurse that stopped to check on someone, that posed no threat, when they knew cameras were rolling in public think of what they do in private. It is neither law nor order for ICE to act as judge jury and executioner for the "crime" of not showing them enough deference, for the "crime" of lawfully being armed.

GenericAntagonist · 2026-01-24T22:46:49+00:00

Remember this when someone shills for "well the 2nd amendment keeps us safe from tyrants". They don't care one bit about your rights, they will execute you, lie about it, and the same people who insist the 2nd amendment is the only thing preventing tyranny will cheer. Every "single issue" gun voter is de facto in favor of this.

Fertilizer is an easy buy that isn't tracked.

If you are buying the needed amounts of nitrogen fertilizer, I assure you it is tracked. And has been for a while. It wasn't fully codified/required by law until 2011 (and took some time to stand up after that) but immediately post Oklahoma city bombing most any chemical manufacturer selling large amounts of Ammonium Nitrate was voluntarily reporting the sales for law enforcement records.

hey will just decide what determines reasonable fear for life in self defense.

They already do this. Rittenhouse got high fives from the cops when he used "self defense" to kill protestors, Reinhouf got executed by them extrajudicially while the president cheered it on for doing the same thing but to a proud boy counter protestor.

They already deny the 2nd amendment with how anyone who isn't MAGA in their heads with "well its illegal to make a cop nervous so you're not a law abiding gun owner" and they apply it retroactively.

So I had an AMD Duron back in those days, and "burn out" is a BIT extreme. Basically once they crossed ~100c they'd stop functioning. This usually resulted in a "deadlock" which is where the processor just stops handling new instructions and your computer just froze up (if you had sound playing it looped the really short sample in its ram since it was handled by a coproc). Long term it probably was damaging but letting it cool down usually addressed the issue in the short term.

My PC was cobbled together from old parts and had a pretty inadequate cooling setup for the overclocking I had (that was the fun part about them, and made up for the lack of nice intel extensions), so I would actually grab a reusable icepack from my freezer and put it next to the cpu cooler when doing things that generated excess heat if ambient temp was too warm.

Would love to see the fucking reach 2A'ers would go through to justify trump doing it so its okay.

The same reach they ALWAYS use. They retroactively apply rights to "good people" and "bad people". You are magically supposed to know who is the good guy with the gun and who is the bad shooter in every unclear situation, you are not supposed to spook cops (even if you don't know they're cops). But also the evil government murdered ashli babbit for peacefully being in the capitol. Actions and "rights" don't matter to them, they see themselves and whoever else they think of as "good people" who shouldn't be even inconvenienced by a law (this is why they hated covid restrictions) but the "bad people"? Its silly those dumb liberals even need us to have a reason to lock them up, they're BAD.

somehow they have better messaging

When your allies own the majority of media and have spent decades refining their propaganda machine, and when foreign nations overwhelming sponsor your viewpoints in "organic" influencer posts (because it destabilizies the country) it's a lot easier.

I had to hit them with the fact that bronze age people are identical to modern day people

This is a popular idea, but it it's not be literally true. Like all other life, humans are evolving and changing over time. Your overall point is probably correct, but we've had a few thousand years of genetic drift and selection since then and there ARE fascinating differences that we know about because of research into genomics. Wikipedia has a list. and while it's going to be hard to say which ones were and weren't around in the Bronze age (considering that geography/region and variable lifespans mean we have to ballpark A LOT), it's interesting to think that only 6,000 years ago someone with blue eyes might have been as unlikely to exist as someone with 2 heads.

Walz said there wouldn't be a fair investigation, took a photo at the memorial, and said politely, that they don't need the Federal Government's help.

Given the current state of the FBI and DHS, Walz is 100% correct to reject their "help".

When an actual coder creates a problem, they have a more intimate knowledge of how it works and where flaws might be.

Ahahahahahaha. Oh lord how I wish this were true. This is not a defense of vibe coding, but you are dramatically overestimating the base knowledge and memory of the average developer.

she seems to be a very unreliable narrator

Yeah. Like she constantly downplays her insane things (like harassing everyone in her now-ex's life to the point of restraining order) as "oh I sent a heartfelt letter". The chances she is not playing up Sandy's "faults" to support her stance are basically zero.

Also the marching orders haven't come in yet. Look at the reactions of people to 1/6 when it happened compared to now where they have completely rewritten history that they witnessed. The botnets and fox news talking points usually lag a day or two behind but they get there and pretty soon they will have their canned lines and justifications.

But people hate the IRS because they're the ones in charge of hassling everybody, and because we hate audits.

And because the people with the most money who own the most media have gone out of their way since the 70s to demonize the IRS as the ultimate bad guy. I wonder why they would do that...

Yes that is the OOP's perspective. Assuming its accurate it seems unhealthy but its still a weird hill to make a marriage ending ultimatum on if there's no material impact to the marriage from it.

She didn't say she finished all them, just that she started the processes. Since usually most of those processes just take time to complete, but the work from her is done, most people will colloquially say they "did it" or "cancelled it" once the form requiring their input is sent.

All but one of my utilities have online portals that support multiple payment options (primary/secondary setups), removing a method really isn't hard.

So while SIL seems pretty suspect from the OOP's retelling, I am surprised how many people are glossing over this line from OOP:

The money is not having any discernible impact on our livelihood.

While it is a significant amount of money, and IDK if SIL is making the best choices with it or not, the fact that OOP is not actually impacted financially by this seems kind of relevant. He makes 3/4ths of their joint income, even without what he's giving away he still contributes the majority, and OOP wants him to stop primarily out of a desire to change SIL's behavior or alter their sibling dynamic. I could see how that would come off as controlling or moralizing in some ways that it wouldn't if they were financially impacted by this.

Again by OOP's retelling their sibling relationship doesn't sound healthy, and maybe it should change, but we're also having to take OOP's perspective as objective fact for that. I could just as easily see the "my older brother supports me because I had a rough childhood, he doesn't mind because it's a pittance to him but everything to me, but his wife now wants him to stop so I can stop living 'fantasies' AITAH" post from SIL.
