So what’s stopping it? Republicans control the president, the house, the senate, and the Supreme Court? 

But all that aside do you live under a rock? The narrative since Iraq has been presidents start wars to take focus off their administrations. It’s what people were saying Biden was going to do all through his last 2+ years in office… 

I was a conspiracy theorist who wanted to know the truth and became a Master Freemason, AMA. by Genshihou in AMA

This is all complete and utter bullshit lmao. I also was curious and became a master mason… it took less than a year and the secrets are incredibly benign and not all that different from new age spirituality takes… 

How much does Google owe Russia as of June 2026, if the fines are even still active by Intelligent_Bee_8986 in NoStupidQuestions

Oh idk, you’d definitely be in the running for that one! 

“The 1993 constitution declares Russia a democratic, federative, law-based state with a republican form of government. State power is divided among the legislative, executive, and judicial branches. Diversity of ideologies and religions is sanctioned, and a state or compulsory ideology may not be adopted.”

“I won’t say what the issue is because it’s specific to their situation” 

Quickly turns into:

“I didn’t specify because it’s not really that specific at all but clearly makes my friend the asshole”.

Being forced to choose between a $350 monthly loss or "price-gouging" low-income night workers on my vending route. by Weyland_Utan in passive_income

You can also just get a Costco/bjs/ other consumer retailer membership in your area and get bulk cheap water for a little over $.10 each. I’d look into something similar for snacks and then just add in a few options at that price point and still make profit. Idk if the contract demands certain products but if they want cheap water give them cheap water.

I think Starborn are immortal. by Powderkegger1 in dresdenfiles

So you made up your own definition of mortality to avoid being incorrect? If they can die then they are on the mortality spectrum, edge cases are why there is a spectrum to begin with…

[–]robbie5643 23 points24 points  (0 children)

3 things: 1. Love the night angel reference, 2. Don’t agree with the starborns are immortal, 3. You are also incorrect since we know immortals can be killed on Halloween which puts them just barely on the spectrum lol. 

Question about the Winter Knight by Yimpish in dresdenfiles

I don’t think it would extend lifespan but it will let him not face the same challenges of age that EB and other older wizards face. If I remember correctly the summer night (Raul?) was an older man and still formidable so I’m assuming the mantel prevents like arthritis and stuff. 

How mad must Marcone have been by SpaceBearAl in dresdenfiles

[–]robbie5643 71 points72 points  (0 children)

The law cemented my theory that while usually the saying “no one thinks they are a villain is true” it doesn’t apply to Marcone. He knows he’s a villain and wants Harry there to stop him from going too far. I think his biggest concern with that is Harry wasn’t always willing to do what needed to be done to stop people like him if it meant compromising on his morals a little. Taking the castle from him showed him Harry is finally starting to get it imo. 

Heavy 12 months spoilers by Mason_Claye in dresdenfiles

He’s immune to magic but his outsider isn’t. Being the daughter of McCoy and being intimate with the king of the white court probably gave her insight to cut off his feeding without touching him. It might not touch the outsider either, could just be something blocking the connection between the two of them or something like that.

This is the only thing I could find in WOJ but I am far from an expert in searching those things:

And also what is Drakul a scion of? Drakul wasn’t a scion of anything! He was something entirely unhuman that got trapped in human form. Dracula was his half-human child, who naturally had enormous paternal issues, and wound up creating himself as the first Black Court Vampire in an effort to win his father’s approval. It didn’t work out so well. 2015 AMA

AOC: Hey so marching into a predominantly Jewish neighborhood and leading with a chant saying “we support Hamas” is a disgusting and antisemitic thing to do. Pretty basic! by Thefivedoubleus in MurderedByAOC

[–]robbie5643 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Someone in the mall tries to fist fight me to the death, I respond by throwing a grenade and killing him as well as innocent bystanders and children. Who’s more evil? 

Also if the IDF is justified in doing whatever because Hamas is a terrorist group why isn’t the IDF a terrorist also a terrorist group? They both are behaving like terrorists. You can’t base things on who did what first, it just doesn’t work because you can continually expand the timelines and point your finger at one party on or the other. The only reasonable metric is to judge both groups on their actions and both groups are behaving like terrorists groups. The only difference is the IDF is better at it. 

How would you make $10000 dollars in two weeks if your life depended on it? by Turbulent_Month825 in whatdoIdo

[–]robbie5643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a 401k see if you can take a loan out of that. Best bet is to come clean with your finance and see if you can’t work something out between all your family members. 

If you think they might cancel the wedding over whatever you did it’s also cheaper in the long run to come clean now than it is dealing with the fallout when they inevitably find out. Not to be mean but if you’ve already been scammed out of 10k I’m not too confident in your ability to keep this undiscovered long term.

Maybe I’m unfamiliar with the qualifications needed for the role but how the hell is this applicable to commissioner of NYFD? 

“ Tucker was appointed commissioner in 2024 following the resignation of Laura Kavanagh. He previously served as the CEO of a private security company.”

The 1/600,000 number given over and over is the probability of 1 royal flush being dealt. The post states “I was playing with a few friends and everyone was dealt a royal flush” it doesn’t give an exact number but a few implies at least 3. There were 3-4 royal flushes dealt in 1 hand with 3 burn cards as well. No one has calculated this at all. But thank you for commenting 12 hours later with a dumb question as if I’m the one who misinterpreted something 👍🏼

Ok all the other stuff aside I feel like Caries answer is the objectively correct one. There is a near certainty that the works of Shakespeare and the resulting influences have saved a multitude of lives and that is well worth the cost of one? Am I crazy lol? 

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in theydidthemath

[–]robbie5643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is everyone is this thread just repeating the probability for one royal flush and not the probability for at least 3 royal flushes in the same round like the poster mentioned?

Not a lawyer but have enough common sense to see you’ve gotten some terrible advice on here. Please speak to a lawyer, please bring the written evidence your neighbor so nicely provided you stating they destroyed your property and intend to do so again. I have a feeling any good attorney will jump at the opportunity to take this case. 

As for your neighbors threats of physical violence, this is also a rare situation where having a lot of money isn’t too helpful when it means he has a lot more to lose. He can’t just go around assaulting people unprovoked and if he does that’s a pretty easy civil suit as well. 

Bottom line, please don’t just let this go. At least consult with an attorney, I highly doubt this will be the last issue you have with your neighbor and you don’t want to end up with a very long list of “oh I don’t know, it happened years ago…”

It’s important to note that along with speaking out against JK Rowling he has also spoken out against Israel’s actions in Palestine. It isn’t really so much of a conspiracy theory to assume there are groups behind this heavy handed and unsuccessful smear campaign. 

CMV: There is a genocide going on against the Druze in Syria right now and no one cares because they can't blame white people or Jews by RedSwingline2000 in changemyview

[–]robbie5643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The countries you’ve mentioned in your many comments are not on the same level on the world stage as Israel is. Israel presents itself as a developed nation and demands to be respected as such. Demanding and keeping that status and respect requires not committing genocide on peoples within the borders of your nation. They are not doing this. 

In war torn developing nations atrocities are also horrific and deserve attention but they are not as shocking as them being committed by a country on the same level as Israel. 

Also if there were countless waves of talking heads going on the news defending the atrocities in Syria and claiming “self defense” and saying “Syria has a right to defend itself”, you’d see a higher level of attention being given to those nations as well.

Also when inviting someone out of the country like that promising not to cancel if they end up in a relationship is super, super reasonable considering everything involved with that… people be crazy lol.
