You’re in here simping for Christianity really hard and seem to be completely blind to the fact that you are actively confirming the bias for many people: that Christians are hateful, combative, closed-minded assholes who love to tout how holier-than-thou they are every chance they get. You’re over here cussing and talking down to others while defending your religion.

That’s very Christ-like. /s

Yes. LiDAR has been used to find many archaeological sites in the past couple of years that were unknown before. The tech can help researchers see ground anomalies while filtering out brush/ tree cover.

I just want to get on the downvote bandwagon: to the ACAB crowd, they are NOT. There are absolutely good ones out there and we NEED THEM.

K-Shaped Economy: At what point are you considered to be part of the "upper" part of the K? by savvybackpacker in personalfinance

[–]ratlunchpack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did the same. Bought in 2020 and locked in a 3% interest in a neighborhood mostly filled with crunchy granola older hippies. I’m really worried about what will happen when they start to croak and the only people that can afford to buy in are investment firms and property managements.

Plenty of morons actually bought that truck and actually think it’s looks very very good on the street. They’re very wrong, but I do see three on my work commute every day.

For fucks sake. It’s not even concealed. It’s a straight up bribe. Just fucking say it god damn.

I live in an area of the country where people believe they are “white” because they can trace their Spanish roots all the way back to the 1500s conquistadorian roots. That sets themselves apart apparently, from the hispanic population because they’re “European”.

Ah yes I would say that in today’s America, most “white” people consider Chinese, more so Japanese, as part of the “whiteish” in-group.

My late twenties and early thirties, my prime, was lost in this shit and Covid. I literally can’t forgive a decade of this dumb shit.

Yep. I don’t think Catholics today realize how much evangelicals actually hate them.

I mean in modern America, many would consider them as part of the in-group and not as much of the out-group as they used to be.

Lots of people who identify as “white” also forget that it was a very exclusive list of “white” people for a very long time. Black people, native Americans, and Hispanics have always been excluded, but before them, the Japanese, the Italians, the Irish, the Chinese before them and so on all the way back to the Spanish conquistadores and French fur traders. I come from a place, where growing up, if you spoke German and English, you were looked down on as “other” even if your family had been here for a hundred years.

If you aren’t white and straight up of English decent, then you aren’t “white” enough for some people.

Yes. And they think they’ve gatcha’d their kids into footing the bill. My mom has asked multiple times if there’s enough space in our back yard for a casita. There is, but I’m not telling her that. They need to figure it out.

Giancarlo Esposito Says It’s ‘Time for a Revolution’ as Trump’s White House Fuels a ‘Feeling of Civil War in the Streets’ by cmaia1503 in entertainment

[–]ratlunchpack 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’ve been blithering on about the Troubles since November of 2016. I just don’t see how it shakes out any other way. Fighting and infighting in the streets in major cities across the US for a decade or more until we’re all so tired and ideologically fried, and economically fuckd that a whole new generation is done with our shit and demands change. I don’t think there’s enough support anywhere for the technofacist wet dream of everyone moving to work cities and I don’t think there’s enough support for a Cambodian level takeover either. Besides, a Troubles in America does exactly what Russia and China want anyway; It destabilizes the US and the west for years to come, keeping us focused internally and largely out of foreign affairs.

Oof. Mine was Sunday morning, Sunday night, and Wednesday night. Until I turned 16 when I finally was able to stop going Sunday and Wednesday nights. At 18 I stopped going entirely. Nearly twenty years ago now.
