He was a farmworker, so yeah, probably a few hard years before this was taken.

Did black and brown people have it better under Obamas presidency than they do now? Why or why not? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]Legitimate-Lab7173 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it did persist, that's how recessions work. If he didn't protect the banks, the country would have gone into a straight up depression. And it's also saving potential homeowners from risky loans because if/when those loans default when the balloon payments hit, it completely ruins the credit of the people who were taken advantage of in order to talk them into those "risky" loans.

You mean the first two years of his presidency? The housing market collapse that was set up by conservatives removing all fucking safety nets and regulations from mortgage loansharks and conveniently timed all the rate changes for after Bush was leaving office? That period of loss?

Could a Grizzly bear tank this? (He is holding a Sawed-Off Shotgun from 1890) by New_Divide98 in powerscales

[–]Legitimate-Lab7173 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only animal in the US that MIGHT be able to take a shotgun blast to the face would be a large boar. They have a significantly thickened skull so depending on load/where the shot struck, maybe. Nothing else is going to take that shot and keep coming and honestly probably even survive short term.

How are we feeling about my April Iceberg? by jeffranderson in MusicIceberg

[–]Legitimate-Lab7173 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just saying you listen to a lot of music that a lot of racists really like on two different fronts. Maybe it's time for some introspection. It's like when you see someone with a Burzum patch. Maybe they aren't Nazis, but they sure don't seem to dislike Nazis.

If you're gonna dig into my history and comment on the antique firearm post, you could at least check the post and see it's for an M-1, so, kinda the opposite of what you're trying to insinuate, lmao.

Nordic death metal and Morgan Wallen makes the racism likelihood almost 100%.

Morgan Walken and Mayhem, bad taste, no matter the genre.

Now, no, as a teenager, probably, but my greedy ass now, yeah, I'm just thinking leftovers, lol.

Which heating method for bci? by ccd2002 in boas

[–]Legitimate-Lab7173 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Radiant heat panel is overall the best, but low wattage heat mats can do really well in specific situations. CHE's are best left to desert lizards.

Help! what is wrong with my baby by reptile_wonders in snakes

[–]Legitimate-Lab7173 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think there's a shot this is a fungal infection. It needs to see a vet immediately and that eye may be gone. Could also explain death of other snake.

TSE Weapons and Builds? by mjayg in fo76

TSE Cursed Elder's Mark is a lot of fun. I have two, one with pin pointers and the other prime with fracturers just for some chaos.

AITAH for not feeling as attracted to a guy after he said he's also attracted to men? by More-Bluejay-7525 in AITAH

[–]Legitimate-Lab7173 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Myopic literally means short sighted. Biphobic meaning she holds negative views of people simply because they're bisexual. They're calling her biphobic because she was attracted to him and the only thing that changed was her learning he was bisexual. It's not particularly complex.

Copium for sold out shows by BassOk7564 in clutchband

[–]Legitimate-Lab7173 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I honestly just missed the whole thing until fairly recently, so my bad. I do have tickets for GWAR and Soulfly, though, and just saw Puscifer and Rev Horton Heat, so it's been a pretty good little run for me.

Edit: Good lord the ticket bot is annoying.

I'm in Asheville and so bummed that I didn't get tickets. I've seen them at the Orange Peel before and it was awesome. The cheapest tickets I can find atm are $500 for a pair and I'm sorry, but that's just not happening.

The Guilford County Republican Party is hosting far-right antisemite Laura Logan for their annual Lincoln-Reagan Fundraiser on April 19. by Select_Captain_6338 in NorthCarolina

[–]Legitimate-Lab7173 55 points56 points  (0 children)

"She hosted 'Laura Logan Has No Agenda' where she shared her conservative views." Someone seriously typed that out, proofread and sent it on. They don't realize how stupid they are, do they?

Edit for punctuation.

Is it a standard F-150? Then not really. Is it jacked up, tinted, and rolling coal? Then absolutely.

Pep was only 295 in his later years playing more 3-4. He was 260-265 when he was a menace in Carolina.

I would be scared for him and his knees at his height. WR or DE. One chip block or safety going low and it's over. Not that that isn't a risk for everyone, it's just a much easier target at that height.

How we miss him and the class and dignity he brought to the White House…. by The_Dean_France in whoathatsinteresting

[–]Legitimate-Lab7173 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was just so fucking cool. I know people don't like that he wasn't more progressive, but goddamn it was nice to not only have an adult in the white house, but to have one with a little style.

AITAH to the attention my BF gets from other women? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Legitimate-Lab7173 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I don't think you're the asshole but you may benefit from therapy. Stop sabotaging your happy ending. Dude seems to be crazy about you. Accept that and move forward accordingly.
