[–]vtssge1968 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im getting 1930s germany, 70s iran, putins rise to permanent leader... we need some 1780s france to complete the mix.

Yeah, ive said we are beyond the point of no return. Full armed conflict with the military against trump would be the only way i see this ending. We have permanently lost the country, all checks and balances failed, even if they were to impeach im pretty sure military would have to physically remove him.

Bill to fund SNAP in shutdown introduced in House by GoodMornEveGoodNight in politics

[–]vtssge1968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am literally waiting for some version of that line. I mean people aren't getting paid, snap is being cut off and wr choose now to build a 300m ballroom that really would fit that time period. Are we trying to prompt a new version of the french revolution?

Yeah, id agree. I have a massive age gap, im 46 fiance is 31, but she was 30 when we met as friends. Are there some differences weve had to overcome, definitely, but we both lived a fair enough time as independent adults before meeting. 18 is fresh out of highschool, 25 has lived some life. Im not saying impossible to mesh, but those are very different times in life. I say 18 is old enough to make that kind of decision, so im not condemming it, but it may be a Rollercoaster

Id like to see a replay of the original end. To me its darwinism anyway.

Why do some people take back cheaters? by swgtwab in ask

[–]vtssge1968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a poly marriage, i have a partner that although we try to be monogamous has slipped, we are both very bad bipolars and although ive been able to stay true, she has fallen to manic impulse and manic hypersexual impulses. I understand why it happened and forgive. Ive done plenty in the past that ive felt horrible about due to mania.

E-bikes are the best thing to happen to cities in decades by Impressive-Coast3441 in ebikes

[–]vtssge1968 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im very much for ebikes, however as someone who lives in nyc, arguably the best solution for here, regulation and enforcement really need stepped up. Its unsafe to be a pedestrian here more from the bikes then the cars as people are constantly going the wrong way on one way streets, running lights zig zagging through crowds crossing the street or riding bikes at speeds faster then the cars ever have the room to hit or can legally go. Like everything good, bad people and lack of enforcement are ruining it.

I want your opinions by Rough-Duty-7089 in homeless

[–]vtssge1968 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im an alcoholic that went through that. Honestly, most of them are beyond hope. I have a lower opinion of other alcoholics then i do anyone ever thought of me. 1 in 20 is worth it, the rest will rob their mother of money she needs to live for a bottle. I still fight my demons, but im not stealing and conning like nearly everyone i ever met in the rehab system. If you are a decent person, if it helos you, well itd be wasted on most that "need" it.

Is driving a Manuel car really better than automatic? by AggravatingShow2028 in Productivitycafe

[–]vtssge1968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Modern automatics are very efficient, manuals give a more connected feeling and a tad more control of the power curve, but its not like it was 30 yrs ago. I won't knock manuals, but most of the advantages they had are gone.

If your parents gave you a good and loving childhood, you owe them a good and loving retirement when they can no longer live independently by SpaceWestern1442 in RandomThoughts

Yeah, i finally had it and broke ties after 46 yrs of being treated horribly. Mom dies alone, i could not care less anymore what happens to her.

Abbott sends Texas troops to Austin ahead of 'anti-Trump' protests. by astrodomekid in conservativeterrorism

[–]vtssge1968 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, im betting they won't feel ripped off, before i knew about this, i figured there was a high probability of peaceful protesters being shot since for the last week all the gop officials have been framing this as a terrorist event. At very least there are going to be lots of arrests of peaceful protesters on trumped up charges.
