I do not understand why it is so common for police in this country to stand in front of a car and then shoot the driver when the car moves. It's a manufactured danger and really does not seem like a smart idea to use your weapon to put a corpse in control of a heavy machine.
The Dems have ran non ideal status quo candidates for so long it becomes fatiguing so people stay home or write in Snoop Dogg.
There is a weekly Q/MAGA/Stop The Steal/Unmask our Children/Stop Groomers demonstration on a street corner near me and it's insane. They recently put up a BAN PORN sign. These freaks want to take away my JO material. I thought this was America.
People know posting there won't get any engagement or discussion because it's annoying to sift through the posts in the megathread talking about the megathread.
Do you guys still play block dude on the Texas Instruments calculators?
No jackets. My school was using a wing of a building under construction as additional classrooms and you had to take a bus from the main building. In the winter you could not wear or carry your jacket around prior to your class in this building, so you had to spend your passing time visiting your locker to pick up your jacket and hope you make it to the bus in time to not be late to your class. The school was not small so I was frequently late or didn't wear a jacket.
I'm cooking a pork roast to eat this week and I'm going to a concert next week. I also just bought a 15 pack of beer. Amazing things happening over here.
This slime funded efforts to revoke another human's civil rights. That is not opinion.
There are certanly a lot of very not nice places in the city. You probably don't want to be walking around them after midnight, but there is also no reason to be in these places at night as a visitor.
The downtown area is relatively safe (some recent gun clown activity in nightlife areas but it's the USA after all) and populated.
The city has come a long way since the bankruptcy in 2013. It had been struggling for decades before this too. Industry and population leaving the city for the suburbs. The stereotype comes from this and it's hard to move on from because the city stil hasn't even though it's made some big steps.
It's not a perfect city but having basic street smarts you would use in any other city will keep you out of trouble.
You are supposed to say "questionmark".
I'm really enjoying the relative lack of content and what feels like an absence of astroturfing or bot content and votes. Way less dillholes and the interactions I see are generally meaningful and kind. I'm slowly building my subscription list of communities and can check in on top posts for the day in the morning and evening. I really felt a compulsion to read most of the posts for the day on my few favorite subreddits (mostly picture based so lots of cool shit to look at and get inspired by). I have those communities set up in an RSS feed for when I'm looking to scroll through stuff.
The NHL put computer graphic advertisements on the boards and it has nearly ruined the sport for me. There are some bootleg streams that have a broadcast without the advertisements but most of them I find have the ads. Flashing shit. Cars driving down the boards. Animated logos. It's insane what the NHL decided to do with their broadcast product.
