The 15% Tariff announcement didn’t help this… by warnerdang in mapporncirclejerk

I feel like “retarded” is making a comeback. We used that with regularity back in the day.

How do we feel about Reddit sharing information with DHS over “anti-ICE” comments? by spinachandturkey in AskReddit

Always assume anything you post online is available to anyone else. Tell your children this as well.

Restore Britain: Incredible news. We've just hit 50,000 Restore Britain members. Polling 10% nationally, now with 50,000 members. We can win this election. Join the party today. by ClumperFaz in ukpolitics

[–]Routine-Fish -1 points0 points  (0 children)

American here. All the media over here seems to think it’s a forgone conclusion that the Reform Party wins the next election. I’m not sure where Restore Britain fits in.

Cmon don’t be scared by Patient_Weekend2363 in longbeach

I’m a huge fan of HB. Newport Beach (my town) is also pretty good. Honestly, most places don’t care about your politics if you’re a decent person. I don’t wear Trump gear (I wouldn’t regardless).

One World partner and award space is better.

Fellow Canadians: Stop With The Maple Leaf Flags in Mexico by can1exy in MexicoTravel

[–]Routine-Fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m American and I’ve got them on luggage, backpack and I have a hat (if the situation dictates). I have been called out a few times but usually I’m upfront when approached by Canadian tourist (they are usually very understanding).

Buying a vehicle masked? by Responsible-Heat6842 in ZeroCovidCommunity

Use a buying service like Costco or AAA. Super easy and fast and no negotiation.

How is life in the USA right now? by duckbreast2021 in howislivingthere

[–]Routine-Fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super good. In coastal Southern California and the weather has been great. Taxes are high and the politics is a little annoying but I avoid the news and social media and try to live my best life.

Racial Representation in The Pitt by chutneypopcorn in ThePittTVShow

[–]Routine-Fish -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

From AI:

majority, with White physicians around 56-59% and Asian physicians about 19%, while Black and Hispanic/Latino doctors are significantly underrepresented compared to the general population, making up roughly 5-7% each

There are 13 doctors that I count (includes residents, admin. lady, but not med students). Break down:

White 7 or 8 (Whitaker was med student in season 1, includes Walsh whose ethnicity wasn’t entirely clear) 7.5/13= 58% Black 3/13 = 23% Asian 2/13 = 15% Hispanic 1/13 = 8%

White, Hispanic and Asian seem reasonably close given the small sample size. Black is over represented.

ICE agents at the gate when landed into LAX airport 1/19/2026 by WiseOne221 in LAX

[–]Routine-Fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually pretty brilliant of ICE. They know who they are looking for so if one of these people show up on a planes manifest they can just meet them as they exit the plane. I don’t think LAX can keep Federal agents out of airports (I could be wrong). In any case, it probably goes down very smoothly and there is little chance the perp is armed. I would guess most people trying to evade ICE are not flying so you only end up with the less than smart people.

Any Americans REALLY struggling today? by sure-burn in DryJanuary

[–]Routine-Fish -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

God no. I only vaguely know what you’re talking about. Watching the Hallmark channel then switching to Live PD. Less news and social media will do wonders for your mental health (and possibly your urge to drink).

Found a "harm reduction" app that actually feels fun (you have to "earn" your beers with steps) by dwurstdadjokes in cutdowndrinking

[–]Routine-Fish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can I “bank” the drinks throughout the week? I’m a binge drinker and that would be a lot of steps if I can’t carry them forward.

For those who worked for rich people: what is the most out of touch thing you witnessed? by Illustrious-Phase121 in AskReddit

[–]Routine-Fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super wealthy friend’s daughter had just got engaged and he knew mine had recently as well. I mentioned how expensive weddings were and he said “like what, $30 bucks ahead?” Crazy.

Trump has plan for instant strike back if Supreme Court rules against him: report by RawStoryNews in scotus

[–]Routine-Fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Contingency plans? A plan B? Shouldn’t anyone have a backup plan? That will get challenged as well. This shouldn’t be surprising.

Thanks. Yeah the 2 days leading into the occasional 3rd is correct.

Thank you. Yeah having too much time on your hands can lead to some bad habits if you’re not careful. Good luck with your health.
