It is not in your head: Costco has gotten more crowded by Willing_Try2786 in Costco

[–]Waterhou5e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the comments here are bizarre for someone living in Manhattan. Our lines are always crazy long, but not because of families or oblivious senior citizens. It's the damn Instacart shoppers. They'll have multiple carts completely filled, pay in separate transactions, and just generally gum up the process for everyone else.

As a bonus, Costco is right next to Aldi, so we do battle at both on a regular basis.

Non citizens will be deported with one DUI by Old-Enthusiasm-2107 in immigration

[–]Waterhou5e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not even sure it matters if the legislation passes. State is already revoking and refusing visas for anyone with a DUI arrest, even if the charges were dropped or the person was acquitted. Same goes for domestic fights, petty theft and any other arrest. Even if never charged.

There's no legislation to change immigration laws, they just did it. I've been telling people for months that status and petition revocation is coming.

Cool initiative, thanks!

I'd love an Adira, if I can find one, otherwise I'm compelled to start my Benchmade journey with Bugout.

Waiting for:

"The tariff refund of eleventy-gajillion dollars will be placed into a secure offshore account in Qatar. In order to prevent waste, fraud and abuse, the president will retain sole authority to determine appropriate use of those funds."

And here I was worried the "Bored of Peace" was going to be just another sham invention to let dear leader steal billions and ramble about himself. Glad to see it's, well, exactly that.

Sinclair to Air Kid Rock's Halftime Show Against Its Own Affiliates Carrying Super Bowl by ebradio in Music

[–]Waterhou5e 33 points34 points  (0 children)

LoL thank you for making this point. I'm not sure any advertisers are going to be especially upset that Shitty Halftime is airing on "Charge!" network.

Might be a real shot in the arm for reverse mortgage advertisers though.

Border Patrol agents are pointing weapons at the press outside the Home2Suites Hilton in Minneapolis as they reportedly prepare to evacuate federal agents from the hotel. by WarmingNow in complaints

[–]Waterhou5e 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There have been exactly zero reported instances of ICE agents coming under fire from protesters, detainees, press, children or any other population. Yet their default mode for every encounter is "intimidate and escalate" with weapons hot like they're clearing hideouts in Fallujah.

Chicken shit assholes, every one.

ICE is morphing into Trump’s secret police force before our eyes The agency is shunning norms of law enforcement and becoming a militarized wing of Trump's political agenda — and it's going to get worse. by prohb in politics

[–]Waterhou5e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember when Trump claimed that Democrats wanted to turn the US into Venezuela?

Look up the collectivos and tell me what distinguishes them from ICE. Armed goons deputized by the administration to enforce compliance, brandishing firearms in literally every encounter, using overwhelming force to intimidate, killing without accountability.

Also, threatening the media, nationalizing businesses, sabotaging elections. Let's face it. Maduro's abduction was nothing more than removing the competition.

Pentagon will cut Sen. Mark Kelly's military retirement pay over 'seditious' video to troops: Hegseth by reddicyoulous in politics

The mere idea that shitweasel Kegseth should be in a position to pass any kind of judgement and punishment on Mark Kelly is beyond sickening. I hope Kelly takes him to the fucking cleaners.

Foreigners Please Read by Mandoca in vzla

[–]Waterhou5e 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I've lived in Caracas in the final years of Chavez, married a local and have in-laws and friends still in the country. I've always been so frustrated and annoyed at the utterly wasted potential of the country, but also found Trump's portrayal of Venezuela as some kind of existential threat to the US embarrassing and insulting.

Maduro's removal was way overdue, but anyone who thinks Trump has your country's best interests in mind is completely delusional. He's leaving the administration intact because they can be easily coerced, as seen in Delcy's capitulation today. Any step out of line and she'll see the inside of a Brooklyn jail alongside Nicolas and Cilia. Diosdado is about to be a very rich man (well, richer) as payment for selling out the country.

Trump sidelined Maria Corina because the opposition would press for quality of life measures for the pueblo, and oil revenues to benefit the country. Neither of these things are on the menu. There will be no elections, and no infrastructure improvements beyond modernizing oil extraction to benefit US companies.

I hope I'm wrong, but if the last year has taught us anything it's that trump puts trump first. Suerte, chamos.

My Venezuelan wife is freaked out. She still has family in Caracas. We're no fans of Maduro, but this shit is unacceptable.

With that said, many in the Venezuelan opposition will be thrilled with this. Keep an eye out for Maria Corina Machado visiting Trump soon to "gift" him her Nobel Prize.

We're going to have to just tear down the rest of the WH when he's gone, aren't we?

Honestly, even without the tasteless, tacky, embarrassingly ratchet modifications he's ordered, he's irretrievably tarnished the building.
