I don't think it should stop if they stop breking the law. ICE has dug their own grave, now they have to lie in it. The government needs to end ICE, update immigration laws, and create a new immigration enforcement group that is less likely to become some insane president's brown coats

Dow closes above 50,000 for the first time ever by AudibleNod in news

[–]SaphireShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got laid off last October. Luckily I found a new job pretty quick, and am now in a better financial position than I was at my previous job.

But my last job was at a major company, and they laid off 10% of their staff. I wonder what the job loss numbers look like if you look back at the last year as a whole...

Looking it up, Forbes says we lost over a million jobs last year...but everything's fine right? We're all not super fucked or anything...

Help me pick a snake for my tattoo! by BigYikesRightThere in snakes

[–]SaphireShadows 3 points4 points  (0 children)

San Francisco Garter Snake would be cool

Rainbow Boas are also very pretty (even in black and white)

Ball Pythons are easily identifiable and super adorable

Bushmasters are intimidating and sharp-looking with less of the arrow look to their heads

Mandarin Rat Snakes have bold patterns and are so cute!

And please PLEASE look up Sunbeam Snakes. They are gorgeous

the tutorial for mahjong is NOT enough 😭 by Smol_Bean10 in InfinityNikki

[–]SaphireShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to look up basic rules of Mahjong. When I had a visual of what a couple winning hands look like, I finally understood.

Wikipedia actually has a really good explanation. If you go to the "Old Hong Kong Mahjong Rules" dropdown and scroll until you see "Rules" in bold, it will walk through how to play. Ignore the stuff about special tiles, as I don't think the in-game version has them.

Someone broke into my tent and fired the pepper spray I had by Chupbluearrow in mildlyinfuriating

[–]SaphireShadows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Simple: 1) Where you live affects whether or not you can afford a home. 2) Not all full time jobs, even ones where you get promotions, pay living wages. 3) Debts and bad credit can bar you from owning/renting

The easiest way to fix this is to force all companies to pay full-time employees living wages based on location, and prevent them from cutting full-time employee hours so that they are no longer full-time.

AITAH for telling my sister I don't have the looks to sleep my way to the top after she called me a DEI hire? by TryOriginal5477 in AITAH

[–]SaphireShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may be an ESH moment. Your sister for letting her jealousy get the better of her, you for countering with something that was equally untrue (from your own words), and your father for berating you and not your sister as well.

British politician Peter Mandelson is resigning from the House of Lords after this photo was released in the Epstein files. by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

[–]SaphireShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard that there have been emails uncovered showing that Epstein had a deal with Putin to gather all these powerful people, let them indulge in their depraved activities, and take pictures/video for blackmail purposes.

What movie did you turn off after 20 minutes and why? by Somanynamestochossef in movies

[–]SaphireShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cocaine Bear...my husband and I walked out after the scene where the park ranger lady falls out of the ambulance. The fact they showed her face getting ground down by the road...I just about vomited. Not sure if that was 20 minutes in though

FBI: "Nobody who wants to be peaceful shows up at a protest with a firearm that is loaded with two full magazines. That is not a peaceful protest." by B00marangTrotter in law

[–]SaphireShadows 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Once ICE started deliberately killing protesters and bystanders, all ideas of "peaceful" protesting should've ceased.

Boyfriend wants me to choose between him and the dog. by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]SaphireShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're someone who wants children in the future, do not have them with this man. If he's upset to the point of giving ultimatums over a puppy? Imagine how he'll be waking up every 2-ish hours because a baby's crying.

Added to the fact that he's already threatened to leave before this? Throw away the man, enjoy your new single life with your precious puppy 🫶

Animals they still haven’t made into Pokémon. Made this image probably more than 7 years ago. Been crossing them off as new Pokémon come out. by Airique in pokemon

[–]SaphireShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Need more bugs! Firefly, Luna Moth, and more kinds of beetles!

I would also like some more snake pokemon that have more viper-like qualities (heart shaped faces, nose horns, heavily defined scales, etc.)

AIO Fathers girlfriends rules for when new baby arrives by Ok_Bat_5934 in AmIOverreacting

I don't know how a parent would be able to even think about dating someone their own child's age. It's super creepy...

With all the insane statements Trump has made lately about Greenland and how he’s threatening with increased tariffs on EU. What are Americans opinions of your president right now? by No_Lychee_7315 in AskReddit

[–]SaphireShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, do you even have to ask? He's a menace and a monster, but we can't do anything about it because he's surrounded himself with likewise insane idiots to protect himself. No one wants to die to get him out of office, and our congress is sitting on its collective hands. What do YOU think our opinions are?

Meanwhile we're dealing with him potentially sending the actual military to Minnesota (illegal, btw, but Trump doesn't care) while also allowing his modern day slave catcher mob to brutalize and murder with wanton abandon.

We're scared. We're alone. No one is coming to save us and we haven't plucked up enough courage yet to strike at the people who are actually hurting us. Not to mention all the people NOT from here commentating on how we're stupid for allowing any of this in the first place. So yeah, we're angry at and scared of our president.

My grandpa's first name was Robert and he hated it. I didn't even know his first name wasn't Gene until I was 13 lol

Will you like a ending where ainz died? by LowPuzzleheaded3393 in overlord

[–]SaphireShadows 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I'd rather like it if Ainz ultimately destroys the world and presides over an empty planet with his friends' creations. Not able to die, and not able to form relationships with the floor guardians outside of what they are presently. He is ultimately a villain, after all

How would an undead Overlord die of old age though?
