I think we might actually need to implement some sort of grading system for his infractions lest we get desensitized to the steady stream

Edit: I suddenly realize I’m not ready for even hearing “testing legal precedent” for the next 4 years let alone all the other shit going on

National Guard gonna be wishing they enlisted active duty right about now

It’s always: the reason you can’t afford shit is because the people being exploited harder than you will now be exploited a little less.

It’s never: the reason you can’t afford shit is because the people exploiting you are exploiting the everliving fuck out of you.

That’s a different thing entirely. On topic:

Any constitutional oath is a directive that can be superceded by no man. If someone attempts to amend the constitution without ratification, we’re bound by oath to not acknowledge such a change. If we’re given orders that violate the consitution, we’re bound by oath to not acknowledge those orders.

Ideally, nobody who made an oath to uphold the constitution will fuck with a ballot. They won’t sieze land, they won’t use force on or unlawfully detain civilians, none of that, and if push comes to shove that is a hill people will ideally fight and die on. Trump can’t make us do a god damned thing if it means turning our back on the constitution. The buck stops there.

You can soapbox about how we need reform, but that’s a different topic entirely

I’m from Minnesota and I used to run to and from work and go trail running on pretty desolate mixed use trails, so my advice might not applicable if you aren’t running in that kind of environment, but here goes:

I’d go way overboard on the digits and the ears, toasty when standing around, and layer my core fairly light: underarmor-type long sleeve compression, long sleeve shirt, then fleece or a windbreaker (full zipper). Basically kinda chilly but not shivering when standing around. If it’s like -20F I bust out the wool, balaclava (sp?), and ski goggles. Goal is to be able to unzip and open things up and not get too hot and sweaty, not rely on physical activity to keep fingers and toes warm. When it’s too cold and you aren’t crossing paths with many people, an easily-overlooked danger is injury or incapacitation. You wanna be dressed to the point that you could just lie on the ground for a couple hours, take a nap, and not wind up with frostbite (or worse), because ice is fun and shit happens. If you’re gonna be running in that kind of cold, it’s a good thing to keep in mind, kinda like how people say to throw a blanket in the trunk just in case your car breaks down, you’ll probably never use it but it’s good to plan around a bad scenario

so long as we are willing to defend it

You are correct in that the Constitution alone can’t stand the test of time. In fact, I implied such.

It’s called sarcasm. We aren’t buying stuff because obvious reasons, and if we did we’d have to hide it for obvious reasons

I’m a federal employee and my wife’s a teacher so I’m trying to figure out how to very carefully and cautiously hide a PS5 Pro in the drywall and convince her I got a new controller for the Switch

I have a theory that all this expense alone is gonna hit earnings and crater everything. I’m not a perma-bear Michael Burry tinfoil hat type but it’s simply gonna be a shitload of money getting thrown around with no revenue to account for it right when everyone’s turning to creative means to sustain quality earnings such as layoffs. Sounds like a big dumb storm

People spent the last 4 years asking for proof in response for allegations of voter fraud and the only way to not normalize the concept of voter fraud is to continue to do just that. The only reasonable thing to do is just that.

Throughout America’s history we’ve gotten through some pretty wild shit with nothing more than the fervent belief that the framework upon which our Republic is built can withstand the test of time so long as we are willing to defend it, and have faith that people like those were counting the votes, because most of them are

We all know Trump supporters are gonna be SWATing anyone darker than a caramel frappucino so there’s a decent chance. Those nasty texts floating around in the news are just the tip of one really big ass iceberg
