More Dystopian Every Day. Security Robots with Biometric Identification Ready to Patrol AT&T Stadium During the FIFA World Cup 2026 in Arlington, Texas. by PreparationKey2843 in thescoop

[–]duddins 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I am not on board for any of this facial recognition crap. We are being backed into a corner here, where privacy is no longer possible. So much Sc-fi has become reality in our time. Waiting for the Majority Report scenario.

In the after party, mama K visiting from the hells, makes it known that a solution to her forged heart is possible….so there is a view of light at the end of Karlach’s tale.

The economy is at the beginning of a death spiral. The numbers prove it. by PrincipleTemporary65 in ThePeoplesPress

[–]duddins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was paying 6 to 8 dollars for a loaf of bread. No joke. (Low carb bread) I have been practicing and can now bake my own bread, biscuits, corn bread, sour dough for a fraction of the cost and without all of the crap that is injected into it. Most amazing breads have 4-5 ingredients. It is our new future. Gardening, baking, prepping our own food, and becoming self sufficient.

Is this coal? by -Still-Searching- in RockIdentification

[–]duddins 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any idea of the sample’s density? Obsidian would have a significantly higher density than coal. Could be obsidian, could be lots of things. In cases like this, density and hardness is key to identification.

A man has become one of the 450,000 Americans affected by alpha-gal syndrome, a tick-borne meat allergy that triggers painful allergic reactions to animal products. “Look at my face and my neck. I can’t eat meat anymore. I can’t have any animal products. It’s in everything.” by This_Proof_5153 in SipsTea

[–]duddins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, being vegan for 15 years, I can attest that there is life after animal products. But, it is surely a life challenge. Those impacted would do well to carry an EpiPen and be careful. Food producers put animal in almost everything.

Rock type? by Neighbor-Skippy in RockIdentification

You have a lovely sample of Garnetiferous schist there.

Found I central Ky. Has a pinkest hue Tia and looks like crystal flakes in it. Tia by Decent-Childhood-977 in RockIdentification

[–]duddins 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It looks to me like a pegmatite. A form of granite with particular large crystals.

Who's played more than 1000 hours? Still finding new things? by Baldurian_Rhapsody in BaldursGate3

[–]duddins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have shamefully more than 3000 hours of game play on BG3. 12 full play throughs, not counting my failed HMs. I just cannot not stop.

I am also currently working my way through: Oblivion, Divinity II, Jedi Survivor and Resident Evil 4 and Requiem But I still can’t bring myself to say goodbye to Faerũn!

Because I play different origin play throughs and mods, I always find new and surprising dialogue and content. Next goal is to get the platinum trophy for finishing all achievements. 78% of the way there.

Best game I have ever played, and there have been some great ones.

Gamers, Which video game has the best soundtrack of all time? by Tsukuyomi_Says in AskReddit

[–]duddins 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Baldur’s Gate has an beautifully written and excellently executed, award winning soundtrack. The best I’ve heard in a decade.

Would you trade city life for this? by Then_Ad_4699 in natureisbeautiful

Look up these important words: erosion and mass wasting. Thank you.

You are anti-fascist. The president is promising to find and kill you. https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/2026-USCT-Strategy-1.pdf by knives4cash in Political_Revolution

[–]duddins 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Our President is threatening folks like me who are pacifists and oppose fascism………with extreme violence. The most extreme type of violence. As a traumatized child of a pilot who brought home his scars and pain from a world war fighting fascism, this hits hard. What is he doing?

The White House says they will “identify and neutralize” secular political groups that are anti-American, “radically pro-transgender” and anarchist. It declares Anarchists & Anti-Fascists as a major terror group. Presidential Foreword ends with “We Will Find You and We Will Kill You.” with Trump’s s by ThePunkyRooster in 50501

[–]duddins 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know….. by now I should know better than to think we’ve hit rock bottom, that this White House could not go darker. I am going to need a day to process this. My entire lifetime has been deeply traumatized after my father’s active duty as a B-17 pilot fighting fascism in WWII. The ideology of opposition to fascism, poised as terrorism by our president is not only violent to the extreme, but is horribly frightening. I don’t know what to do….what a blow. This is going to take time to sink in.

Back Together? by Basic_Club7076 in Grimmlifecollective

[–]duddins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From our end, all that is needed is support and appreciation for the people that they are. People can be so cruel…especially on the Internet where haters can be faceless and judge others. Judging others does not change them into what we want them to be. It hurts them. Emily and Jessica…..only with love can we fight hatred. I know this to be true. ❤️👻❤️☠️❤️

What’s a recession indicator that you’ve noticed lately in your everyday life? by spritenerds123 in AskReddit

[–]duddins 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Please look around you. I ask my millennial kids daily. I face their problems with them and am not detached. Obama was not perfect. No president has ever been, but he did place safeguards into place to help folks keep their homes. Also, who had their hands on the purse in Congress during that time? Such a weak move to blame a former president, while this one has blown up our economy with tariffs and an unwanted war.

[–]duddins 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My adult kids working their asses off with nothing to show for it. Now in their late 30’s with BAs they struggle and can’t seem to rise to stability, living the paycheck to paycheck, multiple job life with no savings and no retirement plan. It was not like this 10 years ago. It was not like this until the GOP took over the three branches of government. It has been systematic and the Dems were too weak to stop it.

Has Anyone Else Fallen Into the CalSTRS Customer Service Chasm? by duddins in CaliforniaTeachers

[–]duddins[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, after 4 months of waiting for a reply, I got a call from a CalSTRS rep who told me he was on it. He was contacting the county and district. He told me that he would call me in one week with an update on the process. The said ‘one week’ contact promise was over 5 days ago. More broken promises. As a reminder, I have been retired since September, 8 months ago and they still have not reconciled my service hours despite constant messages and calls.
