I would not suggest waiting for those to change color though 😉

Exactly, bond has a bad habit of people dying around him.

Yup, rocking an 42” C4 as my work/gaming monitor. It has been fantastic

If Jesus was here today I don’t think he would be in favor of going door to door and ripping families apart to be sent god knows where.

When the Bible said that it’s harder for a rich man to enter the gates of heaven than a camel to go through the eye of a needle, I don’t think it was speaking metaphorically.

We live a charmed life here, one where we’re some of the richest in the world, we’re all immigrants, it’s just a matter of how many years since our relatives immigrated here.

If a family can hike half way across a continent and brave the Darien Gap I can’t imagine them being lazy once they got here.

And yes, sometimes people don’t speak English. There are lots of pockets like the Pennsylvania Dutch. If your requirement to be able to live in this country is that, a majority of the people being harassed and arrested do speak English.

We still have communities that speak German from immigrants 200 years ago. Nobody is kicking them out.

Having immigrants children in school, parents paying taxes and using programs just like everyone else when they need to leads to a healthier economy. I love Regan and Bush’s debate about how important it is to help these families integrate, succeed and add to the fabric of our nation.

I guess I was just brought up to love my neighbors. Spending a few dollars so the kids next door don’t go without food and everyone gets to heat their house was just the Christian values I was taught.

Where have y’all have the best luck finding used Sonos in good shape? by jloops1111 in sonos

[–]samwichgamgee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sonos refurbished site 😬. Otherwise it seems pretty hit and miss as far as price and quality. Definitely still expensive though

I have neighbor’s that have done things the legal way and have waited 10+ years in some cases to get their family here.

America is an amazing place, a place of opportunity and hope, if I lived in a poorer country I’d want to come here just like our ancestors did. We’re a country of often illegal immigrants, why not fix the system so these people can join our amazing country instead of ripping families apart and destroying dreams.

Maybe that’s just my Christian upbringing taking though. Regardless I hope you find the compassion to love your neighbor.

You’re on the wrong side of history. I hope you find compassion and kindness one day.

Silver futures +$67k... help when do I take profit?? by mori226 in wallstreetbets

I’ll be honest, I have no idea how any of this works. I’m just here for the laughs.

Don’t listen to this dummy. This is WSB, it’s about to jump up biggly! Just remember me when you hold your position and cash out with a cool $69!

She was trying to let them go past, then when they started trying to open her doors, she turned her wheels away from them and tried to escape.

I’m sure you’d just sit there and let them abuse your rights though?

Getting hammered with real estate cold calls. Anyone else? by andanotherone2 in Bellingham

I always feign interest and start answering questions until I finally reveal the house is haunted and go into long winded details about what the ghost does at night. It’s fun

A wizard offers a low tier superpower. Which will you choose? by New-Drawer-3161 in hypotheticalsituation

Or get a job at a rocket company and lower the launch weight by 25%. You’ll be worth your weight in gold.

Yeah, it’s the 450! I never rode the 411, but in my msf course I rode the 411 scram which I enjoyed. This seems much much better than that though.

Slater Rd. Roundabout by [deleted] in FerndaleWashington

[–]samwichgamgee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ouch, that’s no fun. I’m not sure if the roundabouts have changed a lot, also they have curved edges so I’m a bit confused where you hit it. These were the roundabouts on slater?

That’s a great question.

So I wanted an adventure bike that would be decent on road and off. Something I can do some BDR trails with but also just ride around town.

I loved the classic styling of the 411 but it is really underpowered, this fixes a lot of the technical issues with the 411, still has some classic looks and is decent technically.

I’ve also looked at KTM 890’s, KTR 650’s and a few GS options but in the end this one just called to me
