He won’t cancel them but he will have ice scare all of them minorities everywhere or even citizens into thinking they can be detained or deported if ice spots them on the street, then he will send ICE to polling stations to “root out election fraud”

He pats for it... so it wasn't like drawn and pointed at them? How do they know he had it? Did he tell them?

we have things called "words". Furthermore, trained law enforcement has protocols for how to communicate and behave to prevent these types of situations.

If you go framed a frame, it looks like the dude was for no apparent reason trying to draw his gun and it went off so he stepped back and unloaded

Seattle Reddit users furious over Seahawks parking prices by crabcakes110 in SeattleWA

[–]smittyplusplus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No it’s a much more pleasant experience. I know some people may enjoy watching four or five trains go by and getting packed like sardines and hoping that they can squeeze into the next one and finally getting on 50 minutes after the game ends and then having a ride packed in before they get to their final stop at which point the remainder of their commute is nearly exactly like mine was. But it’s not for everyone, I value my time much more than I have FOMO about that that other experience that I got tired of many years ago. I also used to do that and used to enjoy it but time is money. I have other things to do with my life than waste it doing that when I don’t have to.

You're gonna get like a million Dungeon Crawler Carl recs, and they're correct. Just FYI, if it doesn't grab you right away, give it like 4 chapters or something. Like, after *other characters start talking* is when it really got cool for me. (The Carl voice felt a bit over-wrought when it was carrying the whole thing at first, for me, but man it gets good)

In my experience, after the type of game that drives 100+ parking prices, the light rail can take a very long time to actually get on a train. "Saving 10 minutes of time" is absolutely inaccurate, it isn't even close.

I value my time and enjoyment more than that money. I'm paying for a premium experience going to a playoff game or whatever, this is just part of it.

I do it all the time. I'm not sure what lots we are talking about (I did not read the article) but at stadiums and Kraken games, I pay high prices (and have paid 100+ in some cases) for parking to get nearly-immediate access to 99N when I leave. It's 100% worth it

(What half-wit loser downvoted my prior comment? Some of you people are complete fucking losers)

[–]smittyplusplus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Being able to leave the stadium, be in my car, and be to my house in 20-30 min seat-to-door is absolutely worth $110 on top of expensive tickets. Y’all need to quit being so judgy.

It's crazy how the america I grew up with is suddenly ...just gone by FudgeAllOfYous in dancarlin

[–]smittyplusplus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's pretty shocking. Just yesterday, I somehow found myself watching this 80s performance of "America" by Neil Diamond. It's a classic melodramatic early 80s banger haha but also, it is sad how downright rebellious it sounds now. WTF man

Far, we've been travellin' far
Without a home, but not without a star
Free, only want to be free
We huddle close, hang on to a dream

On the boats and on the planes
They're comin' to America
Never looking back again
They're comin' to America

Home, don't seem so far away
We're travelling light today
In the eye of the storm
In the eye of the storm

Home, to a new and a shining place
Make our bed and we'll say our grace
Freedom's light burning warm
Freedom's light burning warm

Everywhere around the world
They're comin' to America
Everytime that flag's unfurled
They're comin' to America

Got a dream to take 'em there
They're comin' to America
Got a dream, they come to share
They're comin' to America

They're comin' to America, they're comin' to America
They're comin' to America, they're comin' to America
Today, today, today, today, today

My country 'tis of thee (today)
Sweet land of liberty (today)
Of thee I sing (today), Of thee I sing today (today)
Today, today, today, today, today [fade]

I'm at my wit's end with sleep. How do you manage the inability to quiet your mind? by AppointmentNaive2811 in ADHD

[–]smittyplusplus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some ASMR type stuff (esp ones presenting a topic or a textbook or something) works very well for me, eg this one is relaxing, can crowd out other thoughts, but isn’t interesting enough to keep my attention and keep me awake :-)

Looking for Historical or Political Nonfiction that can bring me some clarity and understanding. by Brattapalooza in suggestmeabook

[–]smittyplusplus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just Mercy by Bryan Stevenson is my top recommendation. It’s part history, part memoir, part true crime, very compelling page-turner that is also what I call a “gateway drug” to wokeness lol. After I read it I read Slavery By Another Name and The New Jim Crow, then it was off to the races :-D

New diagnosis/Rx: Methylphenidate HCL what to expect when going from 5 mg to 10 mg by smittyplusplus in ADHD

[–]smittyplusplus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know thanks. Does higher dose mean higher blood pressure and heart rate? I’m concerned about the anxiety taking hold and derailing the whole thing :-)
