No blunder is big enough to shake up MAGA. Literally nothing will threaten their allegiance to their god-king.

I agree with you that you cannot trust the current federal government with not cutting this program. I wouldn’t recommend the following advice because it requires very good opsec, but methadone can be bought on the dark web. Hopefully it doesn’t come to that.

So are we talking about worldwide or the United States? The chart says the United States so I am assuming we are focusing on the US here.

The numbers on this chart are nonsense.

A very quick internet search shows that approximately 10 million indigenous people existed in the United States prior to European involvement (https://worldpopulationreview.com/state-rankings/native-american-population). How did 50 million die?

The estimated number of African Americans who died from the slave trade is estimated between 1 and 2 million (https://www.clrn.org/how-many-slaves-died-in-american-history/).

The Indonesian civil war casualties are estimated just over 100,000. (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indonesian_National_Revolution). And the United States wasn’t even involved in that one.

And those are just the three I checked. My guess is every single number on this chart is wrong. I agree that capitalism sucks and has killed lots of people, but pushing nonsense doesn’t help anything. You could put the real numbers on there and still get the point across.

Reported it on Apple Maps as the wrong name. See how long they let reports come in.

Fair point. In my workplace, I’ve never seen it being used by someone who needed it. It is either taken by people who prefer it or when the other two stalls are filled up. Understand your point though.

 

I will always choose the handicap stall because I like the space between myself and the next stall. It seems like the US bathroom system encourages games of battle shits and I’m not willing to play. I’ve only had one instance where I walked out and a person who actually needed it was waiting. I felt terrible, but it was only once out of hundreds. Does anyone else do this?

Yea, I think it makes sense for them to stop if they are getting a return on their investment.

Yea, fair point.

I’m honestly blown away that Nestle stopped or reduced advertising. It seems like twitter is exactly the home for such a terrible company.

American here. I would encourage you to do so. I would not encourage anyone to visit the US for the next four years. Tourism is big for the United States. The only way we fix this downhill slide trump is taking is for it to blow up catastrophically in Americans faces. It’ll suck for us (and everyone of our allies he is targeting) but it is the only way we vote these morons on the right out and start a long road to try to fix the damage caused by the orange, wannabe godking. The senate race in two years is primarily right wingers (22 red vs 13 blue) who are up for reelection. I’m cautiously optimistic that the recession that trump causes will create a blue wave. That should lame-duck his last two years in office.

Has anyone seen this used elsewhere?

 

EDIT: See @AnimePhantasm comment below! My friend called the election board and they confirmed what @AnimePhantasm and @fmstrat commented! This was Virginia reusing last year’s envelopes.

OP I am an absentee voter in Blacksburg just next door. Shine a light on the blacked out part. I am 99% sure this is legit, they just crossed out the witness requirement. I can see the word witness under the sharpie in your picture. Virgina doesnt have to do that witness thing anymore. We did at the last general election, so I am guessing they just reused the same envelopes. You should call and ask your elections office before alerting the news. They are hardworking folks whose jobs are already 100 times harder then they used to be. Stirring up reports of election fraud where it isn't happening makes us just as bad as them.

 

I have a 40 lb Samoyed who is a specific type of aggressive chewer. It isn’t so much she destroys any toy I give her because of how hard she chews, but rather she is like a sniper. She finds the weak point in a toy and carefully chews it until the toy is destroyed. I had to stop giving her stuffed toys as she stripes the fur off of them and eats it. While nylon bones work, she will go through them in a few days. And I don’t want to give her toys so hard they will wreck her teeth.

The problem is when I go to pet stores, all the toys labeled for “aggressive chewers”, she finds the weak spot and destroys the toy within one day (sometimes within an hour).

I just recently got a tuffy ring and I was hopeful but she is chewing the ends and eating the fabric off of it.

Does anyone else have a dog like this and if so, what toys have worked for you?

 

These are just polls, so vote!

Hopefully these trends will inspire people in states that have been consistently red that a flip this election is possible!

 
 

Happy new year
