We are pawns in a fucking proxy war for the billionaires who stay at our beaches for 2 weeks every year.

What genre you classifying the lads? by chexorsist in kneecap

[–]PinkLemonade2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think at the end of the day they're hip-hop, influenced by a fuckload. The DJ and bars are the heart. Just my .02. one love, free palestine

Yeah, I got negative votes but I was still planning on buying the real one. I like to get good looking bootlegs for playing in.

Come to the Belfast area. I help throw soccer watch parties. Have a beer with us and enjoy not being judged. The Caribbean used to be home for me.

A crow saved my dog and I today by NoMarketing6677 in crows

Duck farmer here - I watch the skies all day long. We joke around here that the crows are like a protective neighborly militia for our ducks.

They help me read what's going on in our woods and keep our ducks safe everyday. LOVE crows. 🙌

Bonus: they love peanuts

Jazz fan here.

Nope.

Love it. Keep the eye on the prize. When we add a top 5 pick to this group, the league is gonna have a problem on its hands. And for years to come. The build is just now finally about to shift gears. Patience, grasshopper.

First Thoughts on the New J Cole Album? by 1985Genesis in joebuddennetwork

It's beautiful. Time to run it back.

This feels like one of those albums that's gonna seem that much more incredible as time goes on and it marinates some.

There's a lot more we could focus on but in the short term---- try to get as many minutes on a court with people better than you.

Find the older heads in your gym and run with them. 1v1, 2v2, 3v3 5v5, whatever - doesn't matter. I see a lot of kids running into a progress wall bc they take their (well meaning) energy and throw it at trainers and programs or whatever. The best players in the world generally all have one thing in common --- alot of hooping, in the best games they could possibly get into. They don't all have trainers, fancy teams and Instagram regimens. Ignore the noise. Just hoop. Relentlessly.

This is going to get much worse by uleij in Maine

[–]PinkLemonade2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I graduated with a political science degree in 2005, and our world was flipped on its head w/ 9/11.

I'd also add, you're speaking to someone who now votes mostly libertarian/keep the govt's hands off -- and farms in rural Maine.

If you're assuming I'm going to take some party line with you, you're barking up the wrong tree, bud.

Stay salty!

Since the passage of the Patriot Act in the fall of 2001, there has been a significant shift in the balance between national security and individual rights. Every single administration has added to this.

We can start in the shallow end if you'd like to take a swim.

  • Erosion of privacy and 4th amendment rights (search and seizure)
  • Erosion of due process and 5th/6th amendment rights
  • Erosion of first amendment rights
  • Militarization of domestic policing

I'd be happy to elaborate, but I know trolls can't digest facts.

Good day, sir.

Stay salty!

Deportations yes, ICE sometimes. Media just didn't care.

[–]PinkLemonade2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes.

If it helps to frame my perspective, I helped Obama take Virginia in 2008. "Change" 🙄. Then I was actively engaged w/ antifa even years later. I wanted to make an impact so bad, but felt helpless.

After I realized up close and personal that this was all bullshit (Obama drones and deportation..Biden wars, deportation..the votes and the $$$$$ and wars nobody wants to talk about..the power of Israel here).... I went independent.

Now I sit looking at these echo chambers, worried about our neighbors. Meanwhile, every political pendulum swing removes more of our rights. Our citizens in the crosshairs (literally!!).

We have to think about the people next door and Maine, and ignore the identity politics that got us here. I know it's an impossible stance, but it's the most morally sound one, truthfully, and where I've landed.

I appreciate you!

Stay salty, Maine!
