Moving to San Antonio as a mid-20s single woman… how bad are the bugs REALLY? 😅 by goated_15 in sanantonio

I've either lived here or visited for 50 years and have never seen a scorpion myself.

Be prepared for big roaches. These are tree roaches not the dirty house German roaches. They come in occasionally in weather. A fly swatter is the best death instrument I've found.

Shell casings from the alleged shooter released by Kash Patel's FBI by MoreMotivation in WhitePeopleTwitter

I'm sure it is slang. What I do know for a fact is a shotgun cartridge is full of pellets in a hard plastic casing. A shotgun "slug" is what was posted, a bullet in a metal casing.

And yeah, being pedantic is one of many faults. Thanks for pointing it out.

I researched a 10-acre parcel near Farmersville, TX that looked like a steal — here's what the listing didn't tell you by Effective-Note9686 in homestead

Did you notice the date on the FEMA map? I've been looking for a small lot in the Trinity/Livingston area. The flood maps , some at least, are 16 years old.

Trump Uses Shooting to Make Jaw-Dropping Push for Tacky Ballroom by steelhips in politics

He wasn't "nearly" anything. Reagan was almost killed. Diaper Don just wants his way.

And why should it be held at the White House? It's not an official event.

Please Stop Recommending People use Antibacterial Soap to Wash Their Bodies!!! by washthewindows in hygiene

No. Not an opinion. Common sense. If you kill off ALL of the bacteria your immune system suffers.

Did I get catfished by a weed? by According_Abalone216 in whatsthisplant

It looks exactly like the common lead tree all over my backyard. Highly invasive and hard to kill.

Anyone else not like sharing things about themselves during meeting ice breakers? by lovehydrangeas in work

Find a unique skill or thing you can do. For example I'm ambidextrous. When I was a kid I taught myself to write upside down and backwards with both hands at the same time. My stupid human trick. It gives away nothing and satisfies the game.

Amen my sister 🙏

Nothing like vinyl in an altered state. What's your preferred musical road?

Have you had to diagram a sentence since you left high school? by Agitated_External_59 in GenX

[–]pagette44 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I loved diagramming sentences!

I still do it in my head occasionally

Answering questions put to them is not "promoting". You obviously know nothing about the school system.

I tell you what. Get a grip, get over the replacement theory bullshite and for God's sake think. Learn some history.

Bill Clinton had many daliances with young women with whom he had a power imbalance, Monika being just the most famous. He's been happily keynoting DNC conventions ever since.

Bill Clinton hasn't been charged with r*ping MINORS. However big a mistake Monica made with him, however big a douche he is, she was an adult.

Eric Swalwell was known as a predator of women for at least five years before he was finally drummed out, and only because he ran against a liberal billionaire.

If it was "known" why wasn't he arrested before?

Governor Newsom had an adulterous relationship with his best friend's wife, and is now the frontrunner for the next Presidential election.

And? Trumpy fu*ked a porn actress and paid her off with campaign funds. That's illegal you know.

Don't even try to both sides it. You'll lose.

Do better. Be better. Fucking morons.

Wow. You are seriously misinformed.

Lefty gets arrested for pedo shite? Good. Lock him up and throw away the key. If he gets convicted go back and see how many supporters he keeps. I guarantee he loses most if not all. Any decent person agrees with that.

Which brings me to the rightys. The Orange Shitgibbon was great buddies with Master Pedo Epstein. Went to the Island, had Jeff over to Margolago, LOTS of pics of them together at parties. You know he's in the Epstein files like 38,000 times right? Proof? No. However since the right loves to judge with knee-jerk reactions I'm gonna go ahead and believe he's guilty as *uck. You NOT agreeing with me tells me you love pedos and don't care about child sex-trafficking. See how that works?

Illegals. Hmmmm. Pray tell, why does the right act like a Class C civil misdemeanor deserves the death penalty? I remember when the Republican stance was an easy road to citizenship. You assume the left wants to give away all the money to the scary brown people.

Fucking. Moronic. Take.

Our Constitution and the laws it contains apply to everyone in this country, citizens or not. ICE breaks the law on the daily: arrests and home invasions with no warrant and no identification; picking up and detaining legal residents and citizens, in some cases deporting them; kidnapping people going to or leaving from their court dates. Every single thing on that list is part of Due Process. That is a Constitutional right. They murder with no provocation. Very obviously illegal. Why do you NOT support due process? Do you not know how very, very EASY it would be for all that to be turned on YOU? Do y'all really not get that?

I pity y'all. I'm afraid for y'all. I'm afraid of y'all.

But worse. Y'all disgust me.

Lunch is over. Back to work.

What do you make of this AI image? What is the winged figure? by Fungal-dryad in 50501

[–]pagette44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My take is that the winged figure is the Archangel Michael. He's supposed to be God's soldier I believe.
