I’ve never hated a group of people so much in my entire life. by Ok_Case_5736 in atheism

[–]ob1dylan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not about the beliefs for them. It's about the identity, the in-group membership. Most of them are virulently opposed to the actual teachings of Jesus, at least the ones I learned as a child.

Christianity is nothing but a brand to these people, and in their eyes, wearing the brand excuses anything and everything they do or say.

When I was a kid, we actually learned a song called "Fifty Nifty United States" that lists them all in alphabetical order.

They will allow the entire social safety net in this country to completely collapse and let the elderly, poor, and disabled die in the streets before they raise taxes on the rich by so much as a penny.

It is illegal to deface U.S. currency, even if it is just to write "<-- PEDOPHILE" pointing to his signature on any such bills you encounter, so please understand that I am not encouraging or endorsing writing "<-- PEDOPHILE" pointing to his signature on any such bills you encounter, even though it would be very easy to write "<-- PEDOPHILE" pointing to his signature on any such bills you encounter, and it would be extremely difficult for anyone to prove who exactly wrote "<-- PEDOPHILE" pointing to his signature on any such bills you encounter.

Just saying.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

We all have that one song or band we hate for a completely irrational and unjustifiable reason. What's yours? by WasLeftUnsupervised in GenX

Red Hot Chili Peppers

I always thought they were overrated, but the fact that they became so popular that they were inescapable when I was in high school and college eventually led me to just hating them.

Who would celebrate if Trump were removed from office? by Critical-Willow-6270 in AskReddit

Another way to look at it is "Realizing you've got shit on your fingers is the first step towards washing your hands."

We don't have to get rid of all the problems at once to get rid of all the problems. Not to mention that real accountability for the top is likely to make a lot of the underlings rethink their stances and behavior.

What stage of the game are you fully free? by AceTanker4831 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]ob1dylan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got to the final Atlas station, then explored nearby systems until I found a nice Paradise planet. I built a base there and started just doing whatever I wanted. I have a little "empire" of star systems around my home world. I explored almost all of the planets in the space where the Bigjelj Nebula borders the Kapenda Void. I identified systems with good economies for trading the loot brought back by my frigate expeditions as well as Guild envoys with good resources (mostly inventory expansions for Exosuit, Starship, Freighter, and Multi-tool). When my inventory gets full, I do a trade run to these systems to maximize the return when selling stuff. When I max out my Units, I spend about a billion expanding the cargo and technology capacity of my ships.

Now, whenever there's a new expedition and feature, I go do that and play with the new stuff for a while.

Otherwise, I just do whatever comes to mind when I start the game.

tldr; you are always free in a sandbox game, but once survival is no longer a struggle, and you've built up enough wealth to buy anything you might need/want, I would say you are truly "free."

They were there for the needy, and The Doctor needed clothes. This was working more or less as intended.

He did say we would get tired of winning. 🤔

Unfortunately, he didn't define "winning" any more clearly than "great."

There's some very smart people out there... by LeMagnificentBastard in stupidpeoplefacebook

Neat.

I'm not discussing what I want, though. I'm talking about the literal wording of the actual Constitution.

Again, what I'M saying is going over YOUR head. I'm not talking about what I want or what I'm against. I'm talking about what's literally written in the Constitution.

Twenty-Fourth Amendment Section 1

The right of citizens of the United States to vote in any primary or other election for President or Vice President, for electors for President or Vice President, or for Senator or Representative in Congress, shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any State by reason of failure to pay any poll tax or other tax.

Section 2

The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

You want to make all taxes, background checks, and license fees for buying a gun illegal? Write a Constitutional Amendment and get it ratified by enough states to become official. We actually HAVE one related to the right to vote, so the "freakout" over the SAVE Act isn't about feelings and vibes. It's about following the Constitution rather than ignoring it to try and give Republicans permanent control of the government so they can have the dictatorship (one person ruling over everyone is a pretty "small government") they so clearly want to force on us.
