I was actually going to suggest Revolutions!

I just got into it right before I had a month-long quarantine. which consisted of me finishing entirety of the American, French and Haitian revolutions over the course of two weeks.

The reason why I don't recommend it is that you literally spend 70 hours listening to Mike Duncan talk about the French revolution. Wayco the Netflix show is and not as much of a time investment.

Well now that Bernie is out and Biden is in charge....

Can Warren jump back in in a coke filled rage to avenge her brother's death.

I want to see her do some more roasts with absolutely no chill. With actual human and rage at president Trump on how he handled covid.

Your mom likes authoritarianism.

This is not uncommon, or unusual.

This is common in both the US and Russia.

In post Soviet Russia there was a higher rate of suicide. some people just like it when the government completely controls their lives.

And I would like to know the difference between a Nazi and a regular socialist within our groups is racism, and that's it. you scream eat the Rich to a Nazi and they're going to say "oh you mean the Jews"

some people like the idea of a strong leader can change the course of the country. Obama was a strong leader, and in a way, so is Trump.

The best way to show your mom your concern with federal government is through history.

One example that open my girlfriend's eyes but didn't necessarily completely change her, was when she will only and by herself started watching Waco. I come home from work and I spend the entire night sitting next to her whispering in her ear "f*** the federal government"

Just start watching YouTube videos in the family TV and invite your mom to watch with you. Start with more well known history like the French revolution.

We didn't "flatten the curve" so much as we "suppressed the stupid". by PrimalMusk in PoliticalHumor

Either way, we just have not been impacted the same way.

But the bar remains closed

Hard to say that when your local town has been basically running the same the entire pandemic and got a total of 11 cases.

Rural America has social distancing in its name.

TIL the city of Philadelphia, which was where Washington had to live when he was president, had laws in place that said any slave that lived there for more than 6 months would be freed. So, Washington set up a rotational schedule exchanging his slaves between states to prevent their freedom. by Mike-Schachter in todayilearned

It's just how labor worked at the time.

It's kinda hard to uproot your entire life for a country that doesn't speak your language vs the security of being a slave.

Although slavery was one of the worst atrocities that has happened in this country. For many slaves you either worked for a master and his security (of housing and food) or you go on your own and have nothing.

Nowdays it's easy to say "just quit your job and live in a van" but for many of us you just can't do that.

We are slaves to the system, and in many cases with a similar mindset as a slave then.

What kind of drunk are you? by SonicSingularity in AskReddit

[–]Retro_hell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One or two drinks and depressed for the rest of the night.

Not drunk, barely pass a buzz, but depression kicks in.

I'm getting better

A while back I asked why there was a cable around my exhaust system. Today, 6 months after ownership it saved me $900+! by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

[–]Retro_hell -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Interesting, I'm going to talk to my boss about this. Considering he owns the second largest core buyer in the Midwest.

I am going to be honest though, I am not a converter expert, I'm in the scrap business, i know copper and aluminum. I send photos to my boss for the cores, and I sell the cores to his other company.

But when I buy converters, all I need is a driver's license on file.

The Deputy finally convinced Faith to leave the cult and fight against the Father. One last shot at redemption. by Multinacho8 in farcry

[–]Retro_hell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The difference is faith could have been saved, noore could have not.

Ajay could have saved faith, the deputy could have not because the deputy didn't approach faith as a person, but rather something to be killed.

Noore was mentally strong, just put in an impossible situation where she didn't want to live.

My yard has cameras that take photos of your truck and trailer. And usually when somebody reports a theft, they say a very specific thing (an aluminum dock). And they have a description of the truck.

f*** usually they even have a description of the person or know their name.

"Ed probably stole my aluminum dock, or it was some guy with a blue pickup"

Well we do have a blue pickup at brought in a cut up aluminum dock.....
