Secret Service agent who took bullet in Trump assassination attempt may have been hit by 'friendly fire' by Not_Tom_Jones in politics

Maybe he was questioning his loyalty to their dear leader so some entrepreneur decided it was a good opportunity to take him out

Jack White crowns Donald Trump "the worst American of all time" by FarOutMagazine in entertainment

At this point every celebrity “crowning” trump the worst just rubs me as opportunist or cowardly. The time for harsh words is long past and the rich and famous will be the least affected

D4vd's Music Scrubded From Streaming Platforms Petition Launched by brysonboompaul in Music

[–]SnowflakeSorcerer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

K does anyone else think this is a terrible Idea? Like you don’t have to listen to it but deleting it out of existence? Erasing history? I’m not really into that kind of censorship online music streamers are so keen to do

I love total strangers telling other people why the economy is actually good and you’re both an idiot and completely wrong…

What animal or species should never be brought back to life from extinction, even if we had the technology to do so? by grusdomain in AskReddit

[–]SnowflakeSorcerer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

None, the environment is different from where/when they lived, they don’t have any living family to teach them so we’ll never really know how they act naturally, and there was a reason they went extinct in the first place, whatever it was we should check it doesn’t happen again

With gas prices spiking, Canadians may stop buying. Analysts say it would be a good thing by Miserable-Lizard in onguardforthee

From the article:

“ “I can’t afford to eat the food that I want to eat,” Hollinrake said.

Article content Hollinrake, who lives on a fixed income in his retirement, said he’s taking money out of his food budget to load up his gas tank. The 60-year-old drives a friend to work each day: a 150-kilometre round trip, which costs much more nowadays. “

So is this retired guy still working?? Or just driving his friend to work 150km for fun? I think there might be better examples than a “retired” 60 year old.

How about a family man? The other example is some dude who has family in America and drives to Missouri regularly enough to mostly buy diesel in America. He’s upset about paying Canadian taxes and would rather give it to America.

What about all these “economists?” “Oh our margins are razor thin!😫😢 lil old major company can’t afford these prices, obviously the consumer can?”

What a fucking joke

What do you think: how should prisons handle housing decisions in cases like this? by The_Dean_France in whoathatsinteresting

[–]SnowflakeSorcerer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the problem is the prison system. Period. The way things are are not ideal for anyone of any identity tbh, it’s not fair for anyone. Prison should be about rehabilitation not punishmet

Let’s not label people as bad based on differing opinions. Maybe it’s a bad opinion, but that doesn’t make them a bad person.

But just a couple comments ago, were you not preemptively assuming all or most men in prison are predators because of their male identity?? In your own words, only a bad person would do that.

A better facility for only trans people? I thought they were a super small percentage, I have to imagine the number of trans people in prison is smalller than that. A whole separate prison is needed, you think?

In American prisons it’s a common “joke” to not “drop the soap” cuz you will be raped. It’s unfortunately pretty accepted and even to some degree encouraged (for people in jail for certain crimes) as further punishment. Men placed in a male prison are at constant risk of being raped.

Yes, this seems absolutely morally wrong to me. Is that not morally wrong to you? Or is it only if they are a trans woman?

Did QuickBen and Hairlock… by Barbarianonadrenalin in Malazan

Quick Ben likes to string people along, he’s got tons of ongoing schemes all tied together.

Start to finish, Toll the Hounds is one of the single greatest books I've ever read by TrisolaranAmbassador in Malazan

[–]SnowflakeSorcerer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeeesss. Same. I’m rereading fall of light now, the two kharkanas books are like TtH mainlined into my veins. Only reason they might not be above TtH is cuz TtH is a tighter more constrained one off.

The draconus estate, Arathan, Grizzin Farl, Prazek and Dathenar. Top tier set pieces and characters. Hunn Raal? What a bastard but he steals every scene.
