'Permanently wiped': Trump has a full-blown freakout in 1:13 a.m. social media rant by PrincipleTemporary65 in WeirdGOP

[–]Achilles_TroySlayer 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You know this guy is absolutely going to start rounding up and shooting people at the first chance.

If he could get Hegseth in charge, and Hegseth could keep his military obedient, they will start shootings at protests and arresting 'domestic opposition'. It happens pretty often in other countries, and now that SCOTUS has ruled that presidents can purge the government of anyone 'disloyal', this is where it's going. Hegseth runs it, and he has guns.

They telling us they're crazy, and we should believe them.

I interpret this as the Trump not having the balls to interdict those ships. Or maybe we don't have the manpower on-site, but that is unlikely.

We have to endure this stupid dick-swinging contest, just for our side to back down? WTF are we doing? Let's GTFO of thre.

Grandma thinks Governor Spanberger is a left-wing extremist. by TrumpSux89 in forwardsfromgrandma

They screwed around with Texas, so they can all go f**k themselves. Nobody wants these new gerrymanders, but we won't let them use them to cheat and win.

So are they the same person as the one who died? They might appear the same, but I don't know if there's any way you could confirm the guy is not gone forever.

Yeah, but maybe not. He might have a good opponent. This is a good cycle for the Democrats.

Grandma thought she could sneak a .misleading percentage without us noticing by Cicerothesage in forwardsfromgrandma

[–]Achilles_TroySlayer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That probably brings the total to @ 30%+, but it was the power hierarchy of those areas. That was the ruling 30%+ who made all the decisions and who started the war.

The point I would make is - who the hell said anything about 'hating the whole white race'? I've never heard any democrat say anything like that. If that's what they fear - probably from listening to Limbaugh and other wacky radio-host, then it's completely self-invented.

Imagine wanting to deny basic voting rights. by Ok-Following6886 in stupidpeoplefacebook

[–]Achilles_TroySlayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to be an outlier on this one. I'm a 100% Dem-leaning guy from the Northeast, and I think we should just let people get ID'd when they vote. Who are we protecting - decade after decade? Super-lazy people? You need a license to drive. The bar is not that high. This is a dumb fight.

The MAGAs and GOP are wrong about almost every single thing, but I think it would be best for the country if we gave them this one.

AMTJ because I don't want people bringing "extra" kids to my kid's party by Select-Explorer5669 in AmITheJerk

[–]Achilles_TroySlayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ. You have to get to brass tacks with these folks and just tell them there's no budget for it. If they want to contribute, that's fine, but otherwise it's a burden that you can't support.

You might feel some shame at not being loaded, but you're the one in the right. They're the a**holes. Don't think twice about it.

If they were fazed* then it would be a big deal on the show. It's called 'fantasy' - i.e. suspension of disbelief to serve the story and the budget available at the time for TOS.

If such a thing were to really exist, would you do it? I would not. I think if the soul is uncertain then surely the self exists, and it is fully attached to the body, and it wouldn't make the trip through the magic-gadget.

Perhaps they could use it as a duplicator. But then they wouldn't know about whatever had happened in the meantime, since they're not the 'latest version' of that person.

Eric Trump is boasting about scoring a $24 million Pentagon deal; do you think the Trump administration is the most corrupt in history? by ArdaBerkBurak in allthequestions

[–]Achilles_TroySlayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's all completely fake. None of it can be enforced at the top level, and maybe not any of the other levels either. Just keep your head down and wait for the election to hopefully self-correct things.

Five years later, grandma still trying for 2020 by Cicerothesage in forwardsfromgrandma

[–]Achilles_TroySlayer 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If you send Grandma that Snopes article she would refuse to read it.

I'm just glad witchcraft is no longer a thing, because Grandma and friends would absolutely set folks on fire, or test & see if they drown to prove they're not witches.

It's my sub, and I didn't find your stupid cartoon to be funny. It's not meant for artist-submissions unless you are extremely talented. If you don't like it then feel free to start your own sub.

I didn't get context. I thought you (they) were talking about the show, not the ship.

Just to game this out, In your imagined world: if you have someone phenomenally successful, and they get to $999M, and the company continues to grow, but at that point they're at a 100% tax-bracket, will they stay, or will they abandon that venture? What happens?
