Honestly every execution should be public until the public stops the state from murdering people. Also, firing squad is literally the most reliable and humane way to do it, and if that makes the fans of state murder nervous, they should probably be nervous.

This is my cat, Cat. They used to belong to a neighbor but decided to take over ownership of us instead. Cat is French and judging by attitude, knows it. Cat is also wonderful beyond telling.

As a technologist for 30+ years nothing makes me feel more seen than this post
The classic:
Tech enthusiasts: My entire house is smart.

Tech workers: The only piece of technology in my house is a printer and I keep a gun next to it so I can shoot it if it makes a noise I don't recognize.

Breakdance got started with hip-hop in NYC in the 70/80s and popped up in LA quicky after. It was used to increase the peace; getting potential gangsters to dance fight instead of gun fight. It didn't work, but it also didn't completely fail, and it became an amazing part of culture

Where I live you're legally not allowed to build a parking lot without something like this
A giant ass parking lot covered with house sized solar panels. It's crazy, man.

How the hell do alleged leftists think this is ok? Every left publication has hundreds of data miners and profilers shifting through their readership, gathering data to manipulate us, but we just all act like it's normal and fine.
