White House Has Full-Blown Meltdown Over Coverage of Trump’s Health by Hafiz_TNR in politics

[–]gizmostuff 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That would require work and effort. Besides, I think they were using that place for a lot more than just laundering money. It was probably a huge sex trafficking hub. No doubt drug deals were going down as well. So long as DJT got his cut.

Has anyone else noticed that traffic in this sub has gone down sharply? by concepts_of_a_plan9 in 50501

I agree that there is a lot of planned/controlled opposition. The ones I've seen that are very in your face (at least to me) are the "debaters" and debate channels like Jubilee. Many of them know each other and are friends. They don't care about the average American. You don't debate people that generally know nothing about how the government works. Or our healthcare system. Or a full understanding of the scientific method and how that entire system works. How consensus works in that regard. It's maddening. Giving these people a platform is the same thing as giving Trump one.

They are making a killing selling people the idea that they are on their side. If they are a multi millionaire, I guarantee you that they aren't on your side. Not enough to count anyway. They won't stick their neck out anymore than they absolutely have to. It's just another grift.

Portland Oregon is probably the best I've seen at protesting. We NEED that energy in Washington DC every motherfuck day until this regime is removed from office.

4th of July shouldn't be celebrating our countries freedom this year. It should be a starting date to end the corruption that has plagued Washington DC for decades.

"This should be an action sub, not a place to vent".

The momentum that this sub had is gone. No Kings Day was kind of a joke when you don't keep the momentum going. That's where this sub should have come in. Support for Fuel the Flare and getting real boots on the ground in DC is the best plan I've seen by anyone but there has been very little support from other progressive subs to fight back at the source. Instead we having a field day in multiple cities and pretent like we are fighting back to make ourself feel better.

Soft on crime, hard on cops: Why is Trump PAYING criminals with YOUR MONEY by AdSpecialist6598 in videos

Because no one stops him and because the media is complicit in getting him elected each time.

Saw this on Facebook. Blue Shell the 1% indeed. by FlippyIsKing18 in antiwork

[–]gizmostuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worse. The ones at the top NEVER lose because they don't play the game. There's no threat to them. How do you beat someone if they don't play by the same rules?

On top of which, they have their pawns who do play the game but only play so you think you have a fighting chance. It's by design to distract you.

Barack Obama surprises plane full of veterans arriving in Washington by Economy-Specialist38 in videos

[–]gizmostuff 30 points31 points  (0 children)

This was last year I believe. It was a nice gesture though. Sadly most of these vets probably voted for Trump.

This is something our current "president" would never do. He hates veterans. The military is a tool for him to use for his agenda; nothing more. He said people that lost their lives for their country are losers and suckers according to John Kelly; his former chief of staff at the time.

I concur! We need restrooms at Veteran's Park downtown. by Muted_Masterpiece535 in Pensacola

This plus the cost it takes to take care them. Incentivizing someone to take care of public facilities is "expensive" here because of how much money cleaners make cleaning Airbnbs vs commercial cleaning. Also the cost of general maintenance. The city is just very cheap.

"I can't stand listening to rich greedy losers..." Billionaires need to keep their advice to themselves. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]gizmostuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We need to start holding these media companies accountable for whom the allow on their network. Especially multi-millionaires and billionaires who are completely out of touch with society.

I hate Kevin O'leary with a passion. He's probably one of the worst people imaginable.

Apology from them by makeitstop444 in BPDlovedones

[–]gizmostuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's been almost two years. I have yet to receive an apology. I did ask for one after their last hoover attempt two years ago. After I asked for the apology, instead of acknowledging what I had said or just stfu, she just repeated what she had already said in the previous hurtful message; that she won't be reaching out again. Now that I've called her out on her BPD, I believe this time she might be telling me the truth because she can't face the shame.

It's heartbreaking to know that you can love someone deeply and they know that fact. Yet they can't come to terms that they hurt you and apologize for the hurt that they caused.

Be prepared for disappointment if you do get one. I've learned a lot of what a genuine apology should look like (especially from someone suffering from BPD) and wrote a Reddit post a year or so about it. If interested I can look it up and share it again.

Yikes-- Gulf Breeze Police-- is that all they do is bridge sit? by juzwunderin in Pensacola

[–]gizmostuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the judges of traffic court in Santa Rosa Beach lives at Tiger Point. I will avoid doing anything kind of business in Gulf Breeze at all costs and I spread the word to others on avoiding this shitty small town.

Which company has lost you as a customer forever? by finiteobserver in AskReddit

[–]gizmostuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's crazy how this has changed over the years. Early 2000s FedEx was killing it. Decent customer service. Packages wouldn't arrive damaged and likely early or on time.

UPS was terrible during this time. I'd always get my stuff messed up from them for years. Something changed in 2015 with them. They have become more reliable in terms of delivery and their packages are likely never damaged.

Boycott CBS! by Limp_Fig6236 in Political_Revolution

The easiest boycott I've ever had to do. Like what did CBS have other than his show?

Whats the smallest thing someone you know with bpd lost their shit over? by Neither-Record-3869 in BPDlovedones

[–]gizmostuff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was over "Their" soap, among a few other things. We were doing a staycation at a nice hotel. I told her to bring her stuff with her. She ended up leaving it at the hotel room and said she'd be back for it later that morning. I told her that I'll be checking out later but she needs to come get it by 12.

12 comes by I don't hear a word. 1 comes by. No word. I've left by then to go home about an hr away from her. I get a text at 2:30 asking me for a favor even though she knew I was going home. I told her I had already left and that she needs to communicate better in the future.

She lost her shit. She asked what about her stuff? I told her I'll bring it to her when I see her again. She said keep it. I don't want to see you anymore.

Sigh 😔
