On the flip side, every species that allowed itself to be domesticated is now at its highest population levels in all of history. There are more cattle, dogs, cats, chickens, sheep, etc alive today than ever before.

Yes, there is disease that will jump species and that sucks but that's just life, yo. Even with those that died from that, across all specific species in relation to man, every single species had and is still better off for the arrangement. The stories can be told in the sheer numbers alone.

Dude I live 10 min away from this place. Those cats have room, they arent walled in to their shoulders. Sure everything would prefer to be running free in it's own preferential Valhalla, but I've never heard a whine, moan or complaint from any of them cats. And ALL of them are vocal enough to let you know EXACTLY how they feel. The domesticated cat is actually rather quiet in comparison to most of its larger cousins.

And regardless, it's a sanctuary. Every cat there is the result of someone getting an exotic pet they couldn't handle, so the choice becomes

Cat goes to sanctuary or cat gets put down.

I understand your animosity towards the reality of it, but place it on the people who started the shit cycle, not those trying to lessen the suck.

I wonder how much of this is due, or is spurred on, regardless of the publicly stated corporate slop, pressure from their government as they are ramping up military production in hopes of making a Chinese attack cost more than it's worth.

That's why he said "old guy question".

I graduated in 99. I can take cell phones apart and put them back together all day but ANYTHING to do with the carriers I have negative interest in. I would rather eat paint chips while listening to harpies screeching. I just can't be made to care.

There's always just some people, with everything, who just don't fucking care and nothing will ever change that. With every subject.

With homeboy here, I would t spend 1300 on a phone. Ever. I'd go out, today at this point in history, and buy a used pixel 7 (or 8 if priced right), root it and put GrapheneOS on it, but that's just me.

The only way to have money is to not spend it and very few things are worth feeling the despair that can come with being broke. At this point in my life, there's nothing that I can think of that's worth being broke over. Not one single thing out there.

A hung jury just allows the prosecution to retry him

It's up to the prosecutor if it's worth the expense or not.

There's a simple answer really, if you think eating the rich is the move, go into security.

If your in high school and you have ideations of the new American pastime, consider this first.

If yr fit, and aware there ain't no war but the class war, join the military and make special ops. When yr time is done you're a shoe in for private security to the elite. Not only that, but then ur trained up as well, and will know how to do it and not get caught. Will it be hard? Yep, but guess what, life's hard, it supposed to be hard, otherwise what's the point of it? What the fuck else you doing with your time? You think you're gonna graduate and make a landing in the private sector? Buddy, that's what everyone thinks and look around. People smarter than you can't buy a house. I do not advocate defending a system that doesn't defend you, but I canl suggest using the system as a means to your own ends. The system is working against us all but there's still time to use the system to strike back from within. And if that means striking back with violence, then so be it. The law has shown itself to corrupt and hollow, not worthy of respect. With that goes the agreement that the government gets the monopoly on violence. They were supposed to use that to ensure life is fair for the rest of us, since they've abdicated, well, they put that ball in motion, not you, not me. They sold it out, we're just calling the spade a spade. They'll sacrifice everyone of us and our children before theyll accept even an inconvenience to their lives. We aren't people to them, so don't lose sleep over them.

The diseases of wealth are a cancer on our society

Dude, every aspect of every extra curricular is charged to the student. Football costs parents hundreds. Schools don't have the budget to pay their teachers, they aren't doing shit for students that's not legislated

.......generally people who aren't new to these experiences don't compare at all, they appreciate.

Everyone is unique. A guy can come standard issue and destroy a woman. A guy can come on the bigger end and just be a jackhammer and no one asks him back.

A woman with enthusiasm is more fun than a model.

Plenty of people are pretty until they talk.

Just have fun. More people means more time in support roles, but then more attention on you when it comes around. Don't hold back and don't be embarrassed.

For real, the main tenet of fascism is the law only applies to whom power doesn't like. Those in power will openly and flagrantly transgress the law because doing so and getting away with it validates their position in their eyes. The fear instilled by their use of violence to silence people disproportionately isnt a nuance to delegitamize, it's a feature front and center on their brand.

Fascists don't have morals. You can't treat fascists like they were a normal group that respects social dynamics, because decorum only applies if both parties respect it. If one side decides to not play by the normal rules, then decorum will be used to hang you, because you are bound by it and predictable, easy to outmaneuver. The way to handle a fascist is the same as when you need to put the family dog down. It's your duty. It's not a joy, you take no pleasure in it, you make no speeches, you don't waste time, just dispatch them. no monologues. End it. Fascism has to made afraid to show it's face, or it's going to eat all our faces.

So if I were to take one of them cars and drive out to the middle of nowhere in the desert where there's no cell service, what's it gonna do? Shut off once it's roaming? Not start back up and strand me in 115° heat? I just want to be prepared for my lawsuit that's all
