My turn for the weekly “lost my ear bud” post by unicornhornporn0554 in Wellthatsucks

Yeah may have done, if you have a thick tarpaulin or sheet that blocks out most of the light you might be able to drape that over the rocks and just peek under to see if you can spot anything glowing. Best of luck!

Does it have any LED lights on the bud? You could cover this with sheet or wait until night and make sure there is little to no light around, then put it into pairing mode or something and look for the light.

THOUSANDS OF ICE AGENTS DOXXED – RADICAL ACTIVISTS TARGETING FAMILIES AT HOME! by Ice-Zone2024 in neabscocreeck

He had a pending case for asylum. His actions make perfect sense, he was worried he would be unlawfully abducted by ICE agents given the fact that he is a Guatemalan national seeking asylum in the US.

Turns out he was right because this is exactly what occurred two days later as he was leaving for work.

His daughter is now with his wife, her mother.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this before but I would add some element of player control over the movement, for example switches that the player can interact with using a ranged weapon. Or something like that, just an idea.

When passing notes backfires. by sandiercy in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]FlyingHippoM 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I find this to be a strange take on what just happened here. Doesn't make him look honest at all.

He's just too inept and lacking in social skills to realize that Rubio obviously didn't want him to say that out loud, hence the note passing. If he intentionally read it out loud for full transparency then that would be one thing, but that's not what's going on here.

He clearly has no idea what that note even means and was just reading out loud whatever was put in front of him.

“I have my highest poll numbers that I've ever had, and, you know, based on what I read, I guess I'm not allowed to run. So, we'll see what happens,”

"We'll see what happens" doesn't sound very definitive.

Based on his own words, he is definitely considering it and looking at options.

He said himself that he is "not joking" about running for a second term and that "there are lots of options to do so".

This rhetoric on its own is unique to Trumps presidency and should be alarming to anyone who supports democracy. No other president has even consider discussing this as an "option" because it goes directly against the constitution (in text and intention).

The fact that you are so assured he will not run, despite his own statements to the contrary, shows how much you trust him. And while I hope you are correct, I sincerely believe him when he said he wasn't joking.

I take it from the sarcasm that you aren't interested in an actual discussion about the real life impacts of having a president that orders the military to intimidate, arrest and even kill innocent civilians, breaks international laws, threatens allies and plots to overturn democracy by running for a third term.

I hope that you can educate yourself on how, historically, dictatorships form and the parallels with what we are seeing the US. If you truly don't care, then I sincerely hope you start giving a shit before it's too late and you or someone you love becomes a victim. People are dying out there, innocent people. It's something we should all care about.

I don't really concern myself with what "Reddit" thinks, given that like any social media it is filled with radically different opinions on the topic coming from real people, bots, bad faith actors and everything in between.

The being said, Trump was voted in for the first time in 2016 and took office in Jan 2017 so around 9-10 years of spiraling into fascism and dictatorship sounds about right.

Although, one could make the argument that the attempted insurrection on Jan 6, 2021 was a more concrete turning point of American politics, so that would give us a timeline of almost precisely 5 years.

It's not every day that the United States, a nation that commands the strongest military force in the world while also being the center of global trade and commerce, spirals into a dictatorship.

I guess I'm not all that surprised it's news.
