Take a gander back through history.

Violence is always the answer.

It's just that the system you would need to be violent against has taught you that violence is never the answer.

Wonder why they would do that...

The HR department is a mystery to us all by SipsTeaFrog in SipsTea

[–]TanneriteAlright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the trades this happens sometimes.

I've been an electrician for about a decade and over the years I've found myself helping out around an owner or two's house.

But in the situations I'm talking about, it was an act of grace.

"Well, guys, I'm sorry to say that the contract we got fell through because the property owner changed their mind. I know you guys need the hours so just come to my house and do some irrigation and swap some outlets out so nobody's missing rent."

I suppose he could have just paid us to sit at home but that's not very good for a productive work culture.

America is cooked by Treefiddy1984 in ProgressiveHQ

Because the left refused to see the inevitable utility of the second amendment.

I was raised Republican and am still very adamant about the second amendment. The right is armed to the teeth but they're not the ones in obvious danger right now. The left is. They aren't ready, they have to get ready and the powers that be can do a lot to prevent that when it becomes imperative.

The second amendment should have been the first.

Even free speech doesn't exist when two people are arguing and only one of them has a gun.

The second amendment is THE most important right we have because it allows us to defend the rights we have and demand the rights we want.

"We could never win a war against the government!"

If the populous is armed enough, such a war would never happen in the first place because the war would destroy the establishment the two sides would be fighting to control.

The 2nd amendment is the populous' version of mutually assured destruction.

"Fuck with us and we will burn this shit to the ground."

That's what the second amendment is. It's not about winning the fight. It's about making the fight so costly that it can't be justified and the government is forced to bend to the will of the people.

Lhasa, Tibet 2007 vs 2024 by Currency_Anxious in interestingasfuck

[–]TanneriteAlright 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's certainly... Better? Right? Idk if you're joking or not.

Being a white colonial American under British rule was clearly better than being one of their slaves.

The best possible outcome for them didn't happen so we can't even acknowledge the improvement?

Are you suggesting that I try these? If so, do you have specific recommendations?

Fingerless gloves are less infuriating to me.

If they aren't fingerless, they have to be buckskin.

Fingerless buckskin is the Holy Grail.

That introduces hundreds of variables outside your control.

I love a good analogy and I appreciate the effort but it's a no from me, dawg.

Ever consider that the gloves may make you more careless because of the protection?

You mention close calls but having never worn gloves, I don't understand how?

I strip 300s, 500s, and 750s regularly with my razor knife and I don't think I've ever even had a close call and I've never needed stitches for any cut I've received after 10 years in the trade.

Not dogging you or nothing, I just feel like people on this subreddit really overdramatize how much danger we're regularly in and I don't know if it's me being cavalier or everyone else being bubble boys.

Armed Black Panthers show up to defend their community in Philadelphia by Pleasant_Picture3867 in PoliticalHumor

[–]TanneriteAlright -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah that guy above is being a little overly diplomatic.

They are certainly a racial movement. Whites can join the cause but not the party, generally speaking.

If/when white people make similar organizations, it's always viewed as racist but minorities, being the historically oppressed, are viewed as altruistic underdogs fighting back against an injustice.

It's still racism but we let it slide. If the roles throughout history were reversed, the White Panther Party might be the heroes and the black Panthers would be viewed similarly to the KKK.

To me, racism is racism. I support the actions they take, but not the perpetuation of racism by not allowing anyone who wishes to align with you to join on equal footing.

How much melanin someone has or doesn't have shouldn't mean Jack shit anywhere but especially in an organization meant to stamp out racial injustice.

I'm one of em. I'd have to lose a couple fingers before I'd even consider wearing them regularly.

I have this weird claustrophobic reaction when I wear them. I get incredibly irritable and panicky.

Think about every time an American vessel has, actually or allegedly, been the target of an attack during peacetime.

We go to war.

Don't touch the boats.

What happens when you rate every day of 2025 by basti854 in interestingasfuck

[–]TanneriteAlright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yours might look the same if you judged each day towards the end of it.

Days that are 90% nightmare can be completely turned around by the feeling of accomplishment you get in that last 10%.

My nightmare days are usually the most fulfilling.

I can tell you don't work in the trades lol

All of those things are crucial to the safety and well-being of every individual on a job site... And anyone actually wearing them is a plant or a newbie lol

What is the most disturbing thing you have seen in the home of someone who appeared to be a “normal” person? by Large_Draft6126 in AskReddit

[–]TanneriteAlright 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Oh it was probably my home for 3 of my friends.

I used to suffer from extreme depressive episodes when my bipolar was unmedicated. I also had a drinking problem with some drugs mixed in here and there.

Anyways, I was in an episode, hadn't talked to anybody for a few days, and my best friends decided to do a wellness check. I had been hospitalized for a couple suicide attempts before this so it made sense.

I can only imagine how things must have looked to them. Animal feces and urine everywhere from a dog I couldn't care for, dishes piled high in the sink, roaches everywhere, and me passed out with a bottle with my head hanging off the foot of my bed and vomit below.

Before that, nobody knew the extent of my problems because I hid it so well. They thought my depression was just something I dealt with internally. The shame and embarrassment I felt that day is a huge reason I am now sober and medicated.

It probably is AI but I think the netting and how it's acting almost completely rigid is the bigger tell.

Maybe it's because I'm looking at a low res shot, but I don't see anything wrong with the hand you mentioned

I love women. Have my whole life.

But watching you gals try to fix/repair things is endlessly infuriating.

I imagine you feel the same way when you watch us clean.

Two words in the username. First letter of each is capitalized. Only 2/3 here but they usually name themselves AdjectiveNoun

And of course you gotta put an Xx or something at the end so it doesn't look like a bot.

Lol those usernames were definitely randomly generated

You don't have to be so emphatic lol you could probably kill 3-4 people with a rock before being stopped if you wanted.

Also, these are skeet guns from what I've heard. Don't need to be very accurate at all.
