So gross. Nothing like a strong persecution complex.

Yeah no worries. It’s a tough topic amongst at least the folks I know, and I’d be lying if I said I don’t have the lowest of expectations any actual resistance from the USAers if something were to come our way.
Colours on signs don’t mean anything when there aren’t mass protests against the rhetoric.
I live in another separate independent nation* so frankly I find any incredulity at me and my fellow citizens rage laughable and frankly insulting.
If these blue states are majority against this, then why are the protests having meagre showings? Why are people not mobilizing. They don’t seem to care from our perspective, or at least, they’re still comfortable as it doesn’t impact their personal lives yet so they aren’t acting. This is the impression we get.
Why am I, as someone from another country, which is being threatened by your government which represents your citizens more responsible to try and combat the lies and apathy than the people who live there. Why should I say “yeah your democratic experiment failed, let’s bring more of that inaction and that societal decay here”?
I get that it’s frightening for you, empathize with how your neighbours feel.
I’ll try be polite for conversation’s sake but my thoughts are: I truly wish these USAers would fix their country rather than opine about trying to join my nation which has quite a different outlook on life and noted cultural differences and expectations for it’s citizens.
Personally, I don’t want any of these supposedly “blue” states to join confederation honestly due to incongruent ideals and perspectives.
They should focus on working to solve their issues instead of trying to jump ship (which feels like “kicking the can down the road” because let’s be honest, in what world would the governing “party” of the USA actually allow that to happen peacefully or without retribution).
Sorry if this was came across curt/rude but my messaging is: fix your shit.
Could always give this guy’s series a bit of a watch, viewers send in images and he tries to geolocate them: https://youtu.be/QWtQKNsA-uY
There’s some tips to be gleaned from the videos when he’s discussing his methods, but it’s not a step-by-step guide by any sense of the word.
“All that stuff, tradition and heritage. It’s dead people’s baggage. Quit carrying it.
Did you make it up? No, it was passed down to me. Pass it back.”
Probably phrased something like how a streamer might speak, “chat, are we ____?” which I could imagine getting old 2.5 milliseconds after the class starts saying it on repeat.
Cool ass photo
Seems like it’s only going to get worse, too.
Knowing Neil’s background and then watching this video gives one truly one of the most delicious viewings of all time.
Cool video. Thanks for sharing.
Agreed, though the weird alchemy of it makes me less sweaty (but why?)
Too articulate.
I’ve been ironically saying it for years tbh
Was walking around for lunch today and they’ve got targeted ads on those trucks with digital displays on the side stating things like “plastic helps us save food” and other weird claims. I did a double take but wasn’t able to get a good photo of it. As it rounded the corner.
Similar vehicles make the rounds during the day targeting parliamentarians with slogans relating to oil and gas. It’s gross to see day-to-day but I wonder truly how much these things actually sway people other than elicit eye rolls (or support from the converted).
Define it then, don’t have to be coy.
One would hope but watch how this is suddenly a good idea bc skippy suggested it.
Swiping up will snooze the alarm as you’re “dismissing it” if you want to cancel/end the alarm you pull down and click “stop”
Very easy to look the site up on Google maps. Looks adequately stored. When do I get to split the paycheque?
We’ve Got a Bigger Problem Now is a good updated version of the song (lyric wise), the jazz rendition is fun to me
Bleed For Me / I Am The Owl are IMO some of their best work
