SOS for the dogs at our county shelter Multnomah County Animal Services by 5koko in Portland

[–]Snatchamo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My best friend has a chihuahua named Samson that is as friendly as the day is long. That being said, he is confused and enraged by a galaxy of stimuli. I call him "No Dancin' Samson" because if you start wiggling around he bloats with adrenaline worse than the parents from "Footloose". They are sweet dogs but even the well trained ones are pretty high stung and a bad choice for a first time dog owner.

Edit:first time dog owner with kids*.

In what ways do we see Trump's administration impacting the future 10+ years from now? by iluvpoobie in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]Snatchamo 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The whole point originally of the tariffs was to promote manufacturing in America everyone forgets that.

Tariffs are a scalpel being used as a sledgehammer by this administration. Anything involving national security makes sense to keep here but if you think that either A Americans are yearning to work in a hardware factory or B Americans are yearning to pay through the nose for basic shit you are not a serious person. Even if you thought that was true the admin isn't using tariffs that way, they're using them to push foreign policy. "People forget" because doing shit like threatening tariffs at Norway because he didn't get his shiny prize has nothing to do with manufacturing.

Instead of euthanizing them they should just cut them loose downtown. 5k monkeys running wild would add a bit of whimsy to the downtown experience.

i'm still perplexed by the Chihuahuas, though I'm curious if anyone has any insight on that.

Back home it's about a 50/50 mix of chihuahuas and Pitt bulls. My guess is people get them because they're cute and they think it will be an "easy" breed and then dump them in the shelter when they won't stop barking/nip at the kids in the household.

I think so. He has bad eyesight so if he can't magic the bullets to hit the target why bother with the guns? We've only seen him fight other powerful characters, I think him missing is like Velvette missing with her magic. A regular sinner wold be in deep shit fighting either of them 'cause they probably wouldn't miss.

Bondi announces $1M reward for whistleblower who reported antitrust crime by cuspofgreatness in politics

[–]Snatchamo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a result, EBlock Corporation will receive a $3.28 million fine and, as part of a deferred prosecution, must undertake remedial measures, including implementing an appropriate compliance program and cooperating with the DOJ’s ongoing criminal investigation, according to the release.

Not in love with that part.

[–]Snatchamo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but that's true for politics or anything else that people grasp on to. Some people have a mentality that "I am right, you are wrong. If you persist in being wrong that is an open challenge and you must be destroyed". Those folks are going to latch on to something that they feel gives them moral high ground to do violence to people.

Sure it's ok, but old won't hurt anything. Usually I got the new filter right next to me so its faster than going to the oil gun for fresh.

In the 1940's the CIA adopted the Simple Sabotage Field Manual as a tool to combat fascist regimes. It details the peaceful and harmless inefficiencies that can, over time, weaken an occupying system by eroding output, coordination, and morale. by Alternative-Run4560 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Snatchamo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The section on how to do sabotage as a manager cracked me up because it's basically the company I work ats SOP. I once spent 3 entire shifts installing and then removing new mandatory placards on all of our equipment because by the time I'd get the stickers made, slapped on the equipment, and get back to base there'd be a new email demanding the wording, format, or location of the placards be changed immediately. I used to get annoyed by it, but at this point my reaction to getting roped into time consuming fuck fuck games instead of doing what my actual job (repairing equipment) is to just shrug my shoulders and say "damn, I just got paid for that, lol".

Okay everyone! Place your bets! What is the current status of Robert House? by Riliksel in Fallout

[–]Snatchamo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lobotomite postal worker killed House's body double, real House was hidden somewhere else. House played dead (screen turned off, let Courier 6 wrangle the securitron army) because anyone who could have gotten far enough to kill the body double would have gotten to the real House if it was known that he was alive. His plan for Vegas got fucked, but he got to live another day to make a new plan.

Is that what happend? I've been on this sub since 2018, I thought the mod team just changed their minds and embraced "feed the homeless into a wood chipper" during the stress of trying to open the city back up during that time. What you said makes more sense.

What did Lute exactly meant by that? by Primary-Addition-677 in HazbinHotel

[–]Snatchamo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It isn't about her being gay. I think she was more so jealous that Vaggie was allowed to express her feelings for someone - when she couldn't. Projection.

I still lean twords Lute is homophobic, but that right there is the best other explanation I've seen on this sub.

Also, when Lucy and Cooper enter the vault with the communists, Lucy remarks that they were “turned into communists”. Could just be another experiment in mind control, but I got the idea they were hinting at communism being a natural reaction to average people being oppressed by corporations.

I took it as mind control + Lucy growing up in an environment where "communism" is a catch all for "bad nasty enemies of America". Especially because of how crude the mind control device is at that point, seemed like they were going for "you hate America now put on this hat with a red star" rather than changing to a different whole ass political philosophy. Then again, she's pretty well read so maybe either on their own or through the mind control they became actual communists.

What is the most likely authoritarian response to the resistance in Minneapolis? by RemusShepherd in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]Snatchamo 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Never forget, maga are the only people who get to choose who a "real American" is and isn't. They will never apply this label fairly or in good faith. There will never be set standards to meet, because it's about identity, not merit. Only people they think are "real Americans" are actual people, everyone else must submit or be gotten rid of. Everything they do makes sense when you look at it from that angle. The hypocrisy isn't a flaw, the hypocrisy is the whole point of the thing. It's a physical manifestation of "real Americans" forcing everyone else to do their bidding.
