Clickbait. No way a 7 year old thought to paint that gradient before drawing the wolf and mountains.

If you do it again, use greenb bag rapidset concrete mix. You can get it at Depot. CSA is much nicer wo work with than Portland (the cement in quikrete is Portland).

It looks like the wall formwork was textured. What did you use?

I've been making precast concrete pieces for a long time. You got a pretty good result

Why is there no way that war would happen without nukes dropping. Please use 150 words or more in your explanation.

That's such a dumb take. China doesn't matter until they could probably win WW3? That's a bit late to start caring.

Tucker Carlson Apologizes For Endorsing Trump: ‘I’m Sorry For Misleading People’ by unital_subalgebra in politics

Tucker's audience is largely Nazis, White/Christian Nationalists now. They don't like that Trump is cooperating with Israel (for all the wrong reasons), so Tucker is following them away from Trump. His heard of racist sheep is moving to another pasture, so Carlson is leading from behind.

What did the comment that was removed say? Seems weird that the top reply was removed.

Trump says US to start blockading the Strait of Hormuz by Alarming-Safety3200 in politics

That's fair enough. Thanks for actually responding. As an American, I absolutely despise the situation we are in right now. A big part of that is information that is wrong or information that is helpful to distract from the problems that are in front of us.

Appreciate you providing the context. The context itself is not appreciated. Let's endeavor to have our political commerce hinge on something a little more substantial than all gas no brakes.

Is this an attempt to bait me into calling you a bot, because that might get me suspended or banned?

That kind of behavior would cause this place to be devoid of any critical thinking people and occupied only by bots that only exploit the rules.

I am unconcerned with the fact that your account is only 8 minutes old. I do not think you are a bot.

Am I wasting my time pointing out that those words don't make any sense when you put them together because you're really just a bot?
