Can they actually confirm that's the same guy though? The backpack itself really doesn't seem to match up, just look at the straps.

It happens all the time, but it's usually because I realize that either:

• I'm not as invested or informed on the topic as I thought I was and just don't have anything meaningful to contribute
• whatever joke I was writing up didn't sound as funny to me after I actually wrote it out
• it took too long to write, did some basic research and realized I didn't know what I was talking about
• it took too long to write, I got distracted by something, and by the time I got back to it I had stopped caring
• something happens to the post I was responding to or my connection, page resets/refreshes and I've lost whatever the thing was midway through, I'm not typing all that again
• realize I'm going to say something not very PC and I know the exact responses I'll get, "Nah, I don't care enough about this."

Supposing that Russia starts falling apart after the war ends, I wonder if Ukraine couldn’t just bide their time for a bit and retake the territory later? How easy will it be for Russia to convert their wartime economy back to peacetime while still under Western sanctions? Or would Trump just remove those sanctions to give his buddy Papa Putin a hand?

1/3rd of voters voted for Trump, a 1/3rd voted for Harris, and a 1/3rd just couldn't be bothered to vote. It's not that Trump got a groundswell of support (he got +1million more than 2020, not a huge increase), it's that Harris didn't get the same number of votes as Biden got, she got around 7 million less votes than Biden got. It's that Democrat voters didn't turn out in the numbers they needed to.

Jokes on you, my sex doll is already on the way, be here before Christmas.

This is going to fuck up the healthcare industry (along with many others) and it's going to hit alot of Americans hard. There's millions of immigrant home health aides across the country that help care for mentally disabled and elderly Americans. Start taking away those aides and suddenly you've got Americans struggling to find anybody to watch their family members, causing them to have to choose between work and caring for a relative. It's going to be a shitshow if they actually follow through with this.

The only silver lining I can see is that it might actually open Americans' eyes to how much they actually need immigrants after everything goes to shit, but I'm sure the ignorant will just go on to blame some other group for the resulting fallout.

Going to the doctor half the time feels like a waste anyways. No matter how sick I am, I’m never given medicine or antibiotics and I’m always told to wait a week to see if it gets worse. It already had to be a big deal for me to go the first time around, I’m basically done after that and resigned to suffering without help. The worst was when I had been perpetually sick with something for 5+ weeks right before Covid first hit, never got anything and doctor was just like, “Yeah, some colds or flus can go for that long.”

For physical injuries though, that shit is important and that seems like something they can treat, but anything else it’s just, “You’re on your own, good luck!”

I’ve been doing that here lately, just bouncing from game to game to game. Despite having hundreds of games in my Steam library, just feeling burnt out I think. Trying to move back to my unloved boardgames more to switch it up some. Sometimes you don’t need to force it, take a break and find something else to do for awhile until the interest comes back.

Shameful.

Sounds like the setup for a horror movie.

Jesus died so we could have bread. He is risen!

Also, rape porn is very much in keeping with biblical values.

Shyea right, nice try NSA, like I would ever tell you about that time on September 27, 2012, 3:03 am, Jefferson Dr in Bowling Green, Ohio, when I was driving drunk and veered around a corner, slamming into someone walking along the road. Or that the pedestrian is killed instantly and I sped away without calling 9-1-1. You think I’d rat myself out like that?
