post malone ergo propter malone

subway use case?

who the hell knows, man

I doubt the NG has any idea right now

heeeeey-ooo

I'm getting a vasectomy on Tuesday morning and I'm going to be so annoyed if traffic sucks because of the National Guard

shocker!

getting posted up next to the Black Hebrew Israelites is a fate I would wish on all these guys

this is 1) hurtful and 2) not even true

oh totally

I would guess that visible homeless encampments near the WH get hassled hard and not a lot else happens. could obviously be very wrong! but that's my guess

hard agree. also, rough guess is DC has like 400ish cops on patrol on a typical weeknight; 120 feds is a step up but not that dramatic a step up

thanks!

Leonard Cohen – What Is Coming 2.16.03 what is coming / ten million people / in the street / cannot stop / what is coming / the American Armed Forces / cannot control / the President / of the United States

oh and one more thing
you aren't going to like
what comes after America.

yeah the faction we were rooting for lost this round apparently

I wasn't trying to do that here though I'm certainly not above doing so

Child protective services investigated her 4 times because she let her kids play outside "I was told that children could never be left alone, inside or outside the home—EVEN IN THEIR OWN BEDROOMS—until they were 13 years old."

I'm totally immune to the kidnapping scare stories that cause people to keep their kids inside but I'm very susceptible to stories like this. We need laws delineating an affirmative right. I don't want to have to have a theory of mind for a social worker in order to parent

I can think of one particular country that has not had that experience at all

ehhhhh I'm not sure this is a great shining moment for the Westminster system either tbf although I agree it's preferable generally

the children yearn for the pit

On DSA: just a reminder that no faction in American politics is monolithic

fair nuff, "bought a used Cybertruck to break it down" tells you something different
