A friend of mine noticed that a police car was coming up fast behind us so he told our friend with a joint to get rid of it. The police car had its lights flashing and though we were going probably 60 or 70 it was easily going 80 or 90.

The friend flicked it right out the window, and to my great horror it went right in the window of the cop car as it sailed by us. We could see it bounce into the back window like a hammer striking iron, The cab lit up brighter than I thought a single joint would shine against the glare of the cherries and berries.

We immediately got off the highway, took the first few turns we could and then parked in a driveway with all the lights off.

Two police cars drove down the street behind us with lights flashing but no sirens while we hunkered down trying to avoid being seen. We just kind of hid there for probably 40 minutes until we stop seeing police lights.

Much of the American Christian establishment is the type of Protestant that does not consider Catholics to be Christian.

I know that doesn’t really make a whole lot of sense but that’s how Americans “do religion”.

Baptists don’t care what the Pope has to say, seventh-day Adventists think he is actually the Antichrist. Most American Catholics don’t really care what the Vatican has to say and would resent the implication that they’re supposed to give a shit about the Pope’s opinion.

Americans just don’t do religion very well.

More like " if you are going to be a public nuisance, don’t be surprised when plucky adventurers show up to confront you."

HoN was the superior dota successor.

It shows that there’s a diverse party of people that are trying to lead America into the future and a party that only has a plan to rule America into the ground.

Obviously Republicans that aren’t willing to sell out their country for a chance to kiss the ring are looking for some way to distinguish themselves from their treasonous brethren.

Good?

Smaller businesses have better wages and hire more people. Smaller businesses are more nimble, flexible, and they’re never too big to fail. Smaller businesses, mean more options, more ideas, and variety is good for the marketplace, consumer, and the country as a whole.

Less consolidation is good! Competition is good!

See that’s just it I don’t think this picture shows that he was stupid as a kid I think it shows that he’s unwilling to grant the freedom of self-expression and self-discovery that he went through to kids today.

It’s not his participation in this picture that is damning in any way, It’s who he is now that damns him.

The kid in this picture was doing normal kid shit, I can’t even figure out why someone might be offended by it but I know a Republican WOULD immediately reach for their pearlsif they saw this picture thinking it was taken recently. They would call it wokeness, and attribute it to the deep state.

You don’t give him enough credit.

He didn’t just lose it all, until the presidential graft, he had lost a couple orders of magnitude more money than the substantial fortune he inherited.

They don’t see it that way. This is another “black helicopter” thing where they just assume it’s part of the CommieLib-MkUltra-Deepstate and that every piece of evidence that runs contrary to that narrative is so obviously manufactured by Nancy Pelosi using a 3D printed, Jewish-space-neuralizer organized by AOC to delete her feet pictures off the internet.

It’s clearly just aconspiracy to ruin the lives of the UberMerican loud minority of manly lifted truck driving estranged fathers wearing Izod Sport jackets with iron-on bald eagles and American flags.

If he were a real Republican® Christian© American™, he wouldn’t have done a violence, but if he had, his aim would have been true, and and he would have gotten away.

Stupid is a stupid does, and smart is just the ability to efficiently accomplish your objectives with the resources available to you.

I would argue that Trump is smart in that he has managed to, with limited intellectual, strategic, or character resources pull off one of the largest con jobs in American history.

He doesn’t want to do good for America, he wants to do good for himself and has achieved heretofore not possible levels of graft and extortion and all of this without facing any real consequences himself.

He’s not a good man, He’s not an intelligent man, but he is a smart monster. He not an imbecile, he’s not witless, but he is a stupid business man.

Trump proves that you can be stupid and smart at the same time because they can apply to different qualities of a person.

He is undeniably a bad American.

Good riddance

You are awesome.

Lemmy is better for you being here. Thanks for the reading material!

I’m just going to assume those 4 dollar words are real and you aren’t just misspelling normal words to fuck with us.

Non surjective free magma? What about the doblastic amortized basalt?

The whole family of grifters should be locked in a box and sunk into the ocean, but short of that, I am perfectly ok with the lot of them being run hard and put away wet.

All of that fuck Biden merchandise that is still in stores is going to be mega discounted. I love the idea that someone bought a flag and mounted it to their truck and now the shop won’t accept it as a return.

It warms the cockles of my heart to imagine how much anti-Biden merchandise is now utterly useless to its owner.

Adobe basically invented the SaaS model. It’s not really practical to bootleg most Adobe products anymore either so most people break down and just pay the million dollar a year subscription fee so they can keep using it.

Communism is incompatible with private property or classes which is why no matter how many states write “communism” on the tin, what they actually put in it is just fascist enforced state capitalism.

China is not more communist or even socialist than the USA. A strong ruling class loves fascism and hates socialism. They are actively hostile to communism.

China is state capitalism anyway. There isn’t much Communist about them. The “party” is their 1% permanent ruling class.

That just goes with a territory of having an iPhone. When you bought that device you signed on to a culture of consumption that is enforced by the developer of that device.

The developer can’t force Apple to let the developer give it to you for free. Apple doesn’t tolerate free very well and anything that is free on Apple is likely either a privacy nightmare or is paid for by some subscription you have with Apple.

This isn’t a problem with the app It’s a problem with the Apple.

I’m curious where you are that a business line doesn’t cost more than a residential one because in my area it’s three times as much. I am fortunate enough that I get symmetrical gigabit for $90 a month and although they don’t promise static IP my IP has not changed in a while.

If I wanted to get a real static IP I would have to upgrade to a business line It would cost $280 a month.
