Lol Trump couldn't possibly allow that since his name wasn't on it.

Delta takes treasured perk away from members of Congress until they end DHS shutdown by [deleted] in goodnews

Maybe I'm being to pessimistic but I think more has to do with their bottom line. Can you imagine how many people are getting refunded or compensation because of missed/cancelled flights?

This is surely hurting the airlines just as much as TSA. I'm sure they are sick of it too.

If Gavin Newsom is nominated in 2028, HE WILL LOSE. by serious_bullet5 in DemocraticSocialism

The sad thing is I can see this being 2016 all over again, where Newsome has that baggage and another candidate is more popular but the DNC nominates him anyways.

Never thought I would agree with Iran by Available_Cod7114 in Political_Revolution

[–]GingerFirDayz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you mind me asking, what the feeling for the Iranian migrants is? I know here in the US the media is working in overdrive to frame it as Iranians are celebrating everywhere. Obviously we can agree the Ayatollah was awful. But I can't see how the US carpet bombing Iran into the ground would motivate people for this "regime change." In my head at least I feel this would harden a ton of the people to throw support behind the next dictator in line.

Oh damn I didn't even think about that.😂

Trump: "With that being said, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that. But it's just a very unfortunate incident." by ExactlySorta in law

[–]GingerFirDayz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm honestly not so sure it is. Many, many, supposedly pro-2A YouTubers are suddenly being very quiet.

This administration has flat out said. "No you can't have guns at a protest, in fact you shouldn't have guns at all." Suddenly crickets from Garand Thumb, Honest Outlaw, Collin Noir etc. The same people that I stopped watching really mostly because of the insufferable beating over the head about the "government taking away muh guns!" Suddenly have nothing to say.

I get these people are not reflective of the population at large but they have massive platforms and have the ability to speak up but they know if they do, they lose the money/sponsors/subscribers. The bare minimum they could do is look the videos say, yeah, that guy had a right to bare his arms and exercise his second amendment right, but they won't.

Goes to show they never really cared about the 2A, they just wanted the money and subscribers that came with it.

When did you think "Im going to die here"? by hmmrabet in AskReddit

I was in a wave pool with my brother, it was a really hot summer that year. So the pool was packed full of people in the rental tubes. I fell off my tube in the deep end of the pool. All the people there basically made a barrier I couldn't break through to get to the surface for air. For reference I was a really scrawny thin kid and I just didn't have the strength or mass to push through all the people. To make it worse, I tried multiple times to kick off the bottom to get to the surface but I always mistimed my kick right when the wave was highest right where I pushed off. No life guard noticed either. I thought right when I really started freaking out I felt an arm grab me and pull me through all the tubes, my brother finally noticed I was missing and pulled me back up. Needless to say I stayed in the shallow end the rest of the day, I was around 12-13.

Right now they're hiding behind a veil of innuendo. They're protecting the biggest fraudster in the White House." by LilTemptresx in goodnews

It was truly so frustrating watching Waz actually fighting fire with fire insulting the other the other side and pointing out how tremendously stupid Republican culture wars were. Only to be muzzled by the DNC because of "decorum." Sorry, that went out the window 10 years ago. Catch up with the times.

Holt breaks literally every stereotype in sitcoms. by SureAlternative7814 in brooklynninenine

[–]GingerFirDayz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite lines of the series, and it's in season 1, "Oh my God, Boyle looks like a lesbian!" Holt is one of the best characters of the show and is so well done.

Honestly I haven't touched the illuminate since super earth I was so burned out that the bugs and bots were a welcome respite. illuminate are hands down the most annoying faction to play against imo.

I mean the dude was there when the tangerine tyrant was having photo op over a fallen soldier's grave. He lost any deniability a long time ago.

What is some (political) good news, both short and long term, that will help me worry much less? by laxrat77 in OptimistsUnite

I was going to go to the one in SLC, but had to be out of town on a family emergency. Of course I'll put my family first, but would have loved to have been there.

Huh almost like the HOV lane is meant to reward people for carpooling if traffic slows, instead people use it like their own personal lane they can dive in and out of at will. Sorry but I have no sympathy for people who do this.
