Are the interjections pulled from other songs? They each seem familiar

They need to walk through a cemetery. Look for the tombstones running only a few years. Children. Then the years. The children's headstones stop. We dramatically cut childhood death and these m*&^%#f#^$@^s are bringing it back to line their pockets.

It was the first time I had heard the parable of the stone cutter. The book didn't make me Taoist but that story did change my outlook on a few things

What security is a university supposed to provide against gun crime in an open carry state?

I should say, I do know about the machine gun nickname. I collect typewriters and in fact I research The Chicago (posted above), the machine gun thing definitely hinders that at times. Though it has led me to focus queries and ended up helping to find a few items i might not posted have found.

Hot take: Ikea's food counter is bad. Everything is cooked to soft and tasteless. It's cheap, but it's bad. Buy the frozen meatballs and make them at home with sides that resemble food

Inequality. Structural, economic, etc are just too pervasive. From that point you start to think about how to get there and you basically derive leftism.

I still think some of the fundamental ideologies of libertarianism are good. I recall a discussion of a hierarchy of rights and using that to derive laws, etc. But of course that is a "green field" philosophy. Once I started to consider trying to get to that place you see how impossible it is.

Pretty sure they switched to "of well there's nothing we can do about it now" a few years ago. As long as we keep the oil pumping they don't care

This was the spectacular part of it. He clearly and repeatedly warned of Trump then immediately bowed to him. I don't know which was really him. And THAT was really him.

As an antique typewriter collector, I hope you don't HATE them ;) Writing a whole-ass book on one sounds pretty terrible though

And I mean, in normal times I would say the idea of copying an obviously illegal gambling app would be rather on the nose but we live in hell now

It isn't hard to reason why though. Capture relies on a group of people volunteering to do something that doesn't benefit them. Solar relies on a different group of people to do something that does benefit them.

I definitely would rather *not* experience whatever calamity we very well might but at least the GOP is finally holding the bag when it happens for once. I'm so tired of the "they're better for the economy" myth and would like it to finally die.

I am a little surprised that no one has tried to nationalize that one place in the PNW that does topless baristas. Meanwhile I'm looking for a place to use a typewriter once in a while

If people are starting to call for "extrajudicial justice" it's only bc such a large portion of the country wants to see justice and everyone with the power to do so legally is refusing to do any amount of accountability. I'm not saying it's correct, but it's easy to unbeatable why it is happening

I'd say it IS a race to the bottom, because that's where the SCOTUS put the finish line

I have been in the Facebook system this last year due to my hobby and the fact that it's community organizes there and let me say, it is a complete cesspool of fake and click bait posts, stolen content reposts, troll bait, etc. I hate it there, i can't believe so many people use it
