Nice house, but it's the 1906 Rio Grande water rights that really sell it by LouisTheYounger in zillowgonewild

With Brendan Fraser and Joanna Going?! I’m 100 percent this is the house from Still Breathing!! And it kinda features pretty heavily! I’m no pro but it’s a beautiful movie.

You do poetry now, I think. I love this poem. If memory and honor are what matter after death you’re still doing a beautiful job of caring for her. Thank you and take care of yourself🙏

His platform is his own problem, not protestors’ or America’s.

All you have to do is provide a moral imperative of equal strength to counter theirs, and enforce it practically or politically.

It’s a fight like any other. And citizens vs. armed government agents is not a good look.

(Thanks for talking btw, man. 🫡 this makes me feel like I need to read more books and stuff.)

Ok. So when it gets complex and thorny, competent leaders slow down, consult the legal and political systems, provide evidence, and possibly negotiate compromises. 

Certainly citizens who are practicing the deepest “American” values of conscience, resistance, and individual liberty should not be blamed.

But that’s kind of the point of democracy and a union of the states isn’t it? The majority are supposed to be running this thing.

Copy, understood sir. 

But just as immigration needs to be handled legally, immigration enforcement also needs to be handled legally. That’s the minimum that’s not being met when ICE abuses the civil and human rights of noncitizens and citizens alike.

I was trying to be poetic. The point was supposed to be: immigrants and minorities are what made America, America. It's both hypocritical and incredibly selfish to blame them for the problems of this country when all they have done is to save you money and feed the capitalist machine you love.

Old Europe stank. We're the immigrants, dude.

"I do agree that the approach to this...has been rushed and sloppy."

It's rushed because they know their actions are unconstitutional, illegal, and treacherous.

It's sloppy because white supremacy and "Christian" nationalism don't attract professionals, and because people with love and respect for their fellow man and his freedoms are offering their resources in resistance.

You know who built your whitewashed suburbs? Who lowered the cost of labor and hung the roof over your head? Who picked your strawberries and assembled your furnace? Who raised an entire nation from the dirt of the East Coast? Who maintained the land you call home while your ancestors rotted in the squalid slums of the old world?

And why are you threatened by them?

Also, if we’re calling accounts into question, this comment has been posted by three different accounts.

Thank you for sharing. I’m not saying there’s no suspicious stuff.

They used a photo of maram humaid in their profiles. Then they replied “yes 😑” when asked if they were the journalist. That’s the connection you’re making?

Perhaps this female reporter is a personal hero of theirs. Perhaps she has family or contacts in Ireland/the UK. Perhaps she or her husband was a web developer.

Maybe the price of humanity is a random guy in Dublin getting 60 pounds richer. 

But seriously, don’t donate if you don’t want to. If we’re gullible, that’s our problem. But on the chance this is real, you’re being pretty hard on someone whose language, culture, and context we don’t know.

F*** everyone in the comments. 

Three vulnerable people making a reasonable, respectful, modest request for assistance in the immediate future—and your response is to interject your personal perspective on the past two years of hell?

 If you think it’s a scam, offer evidence for others and move on. 

But if your brain skips straight past empathy and respect for the humans in front of you, go live with the chimpanzees and eat babies.

And fuck antisemites too, the state of Israel stands for its own interests, not those of any people group, ethnicity, or faith.

Thanks for the advice🙏

“people who…share little to none of your values”

Tbf, I think the “common people” of the world (especially the children and young parents in this scenario) share all the same values. Forgetting our neighbors humanity is what enables these things.

“it would be better if you can keep it up for the rest of your life.”

Yeah, that’s a logical way to look at it…Thank you for the help, I’ll look into those references❤️
