There was a news worthy event in the Lancaster PA area a while ago where one group of Amish men attacked another and shaved off their beards, a major act of aggression in their community. There was discussion of outside charges being filed I think, but the details were chilling to read

This is the best thing I have heard all week. 😀

Jokes are universal, part of our humanity and transcend culture and time.

This makes me feel connected in a punny way to people who lived so long ago.

Very cool, thank you for sharing this!

To be completely fair, it is a cult and everything you just described also describes a cult.

I am not being glib. I have had enough proximity and interaction with these people to recognize it for myself.

But I’m sure all the Amish who have access to social media can chime right in…🤣

I was flipping off this random lady in a Tesla today (that’s right I don’t know you) and I was taken aback for a second by the look on her face.

It was kind of sad, tired of getting random fingers from random strangers all day and I thought:

“Good, you regret your poor choices lady I don’t know”

She got the thumb wrong or perhaps she can’t bend it properly because that’s the one she keeps in her hateful butthole.

I’m not making this up, I swear, I’m just too lazy to go find a reference for it (bad scientist, bad) but there has been serious talk amongst the project 2025 people to make the endgame involuntary “mental heath” facilities for all trans people.

This is not idle talk. Does this sound familiar?

So, DABA.

Denial
Anger
Bargaining
Acceptance

The dems in DC seem to be perpetually and irrevocably stuck in the “Denial” phase

I suggest smelling-salts

As a proud and loud pan trans woman who is a woodworker and (because my art led me to it) blacksmith who also has a crucible furnace (sand casting rocks!) it is great to see your work and learn of your shop! I love “made by queers in the woods” makes me smile like someone just told me trump died.

Strains not stains….

I will obsesses over this typo all day tomorrow and then a little on Thursday unless I make another more odious typo in the meantime, when I will then focus even harder on that second unforced error rather than something important like, I dunno, living

Exactly. Smart people can see the jokes hiding within*

Well, there a many options out there for edibles, vapes, flower etc that come from stains that have little CBD and some strains (Sativas) that I have found to be more stimulant-like.

Yes, please.

We are but a few and we need the help of those who are privileged enough to have a voice, as ours is clearly not loud enough.

That was the “People’s Elbow” of responses.

You don’t come back from that.

Peace.

That would be a nice thing if we could find it and if you find it won’t you tell me how?

I’d give my left breast for some good old fucking boredom right now.

Damn curse.

Funny you should say that I have been using medical marijuana for almost seven years to treat my autoimmune disease and honestly it has helped a great deal. I don’t believe it’s a panacea or anything. It may not treat the pain directly it might be that just being high feels better than being in pain

I have a slightly more polite three words for the democrats who didn’t vote:

I’m adding this shit to my shit list, which is a list of shit shitty enough to put on a shitty list of shit.

They have been promising they would do this, it’s clearly written in Project 2025. The people who told you they wouldn’t do it didn’t understand the situation.

The American public chose to not see it

We knew this was coming. There is so much more to come that they have also made quite clear. Fight

Good. This is what we all need to do, but I do understand how difficult it is as they are still family and that sucks.

I wish this data was normalized to populations.

It would be an even stronger argument
