Cool, it's a short victorious war. Like all wars.

Hey, y'all need to chill out. The cops have qualified immunity because they are better trained and educated than the average civilian. Y'all think this was a medical imaging center!? You don't know that! They could have been growing dangerous Marijuana that immigrated here illegally from Mexico to eat the dogs and cats!

Thank God our boys in blue took the time to clear this potentially dangerous building of any possible threats! That MRI machine nearly got one of them until they disarmed and detained it!

Just another dangerous day on the job!

If you have a CDL there is a federal database that tracks drug and alcohol offenses that had become mandatory to enroll in for most jobs in the industry.

Why don't we have something like that for cops?

Maybe it tracks reports of discipline and can be used by the public to file complaints with police departments.

I know something like this is talked about a lot but we already built something similar for truckers. There are 1.36 million CDL holders and 708,000 cops. Seems like it'd be pretty easy to copy their homework.

This is it right here. I am a trans person and I actually like both the enderverse and harry potter and I'm not a fan of either author. But I can say I like the enderverse without any shame or self loathing because Card doesn't appear to speak about his shitty views unless directly asked.

Now with Joanne on the other hand.... Well, fuck her and her IP and everything else she might ever do. She is a billionaire and like Musk just can't be happy with that and shut the fuck up. I get it you foul bitch, you hate me and that I exist, now go buy a fucking yacht and let me struggle to pay rent, buy food, and simply live in peace. All I have ever done to that self righteous cunt is buy her books and yet she feels the need to denigrate me and my existence and espouse hate directed toward me every chance she gets. Just stfu Joanne, you've won the game you never have to worry about having your basic needs met ever again. You've won. Now go the fuck away.

Basically I can put blinders on and still enjoy the enderverse and shadows, but I can't do that with Joanne. Harry Potter will never hold the same place in my heart as it once did. I cannot read it anymore without feeling gross and disgusted with myself for enjoying anything this foul human has produced.

I'll add Geocaching to this list. Walk around, find hidden caches and solve puzzles.

It's not focused on the walking places but instead on the finding of caches. I personally need to get out and do some that involve going on hikes!

I bought a steam deck and have been checking every day waiting for it to arrive... Or even be shipped! They finally packaged the damn thing!

But I'd rather look at what modern people are doing and saying.

We would too but unfortunately fascists pretend that they're not fascist by claiming their political party freed the slaves.

This obviously ignores their bigotry and hate for people of color and distaste for women.... And well, I digress. Suffice to say that these assholes try to claim they're not racist despite all the racist bullshit and hate they spread, and they use this claim as proof.

We would love to ignore it but we can't. Best we can do is inform ourselves.

That article gets cut off. I could remove it on my computer but I figured the archive would work.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong though. Whenever I scroll down the page gets reloaded.

Edit: I kept going back and eventually found a snapshot that worked https://web.archive.org/web/20190212082650/https://medium.com/s/story/paw-patrol-is-a-republican-dystopia-f178161fce54

Amazon is a company in the technology sector. They might be a retailer but they are also a part of big tech and the foundation of much of the Internet. A large portion of their workforce are tech workers.

Articles like this are not focused on warehouse employees, they have to go into the office to do their jobs at all. This article is talking about people who don't have to go into work to perform their job... Like tech workers.

So like it or not, this is tech news.

Hopefully this will include groceries. I hate when I go to buy something and it says $9.99 and I get up to the register and they hit me with this stupid, obnoxious hidden fee!

I only have a $10 bill, it says it costs less then $10. Why is it not false advertising to have it say $9.99 when it costs $12.37 at the register?

The whole thing is a scam.

There's some weirdness going on with how Ukraine didn't ban Nazi symbols relating to this unit.

In Canada courts determined they couldn't condemn the unit as a whole which is not cool but you can condemn individuals.

But the real truth seems to be that this poster is posting anti-Ukraine propaganda. By reading deeper into the subtext, and in light of Russian propaganda where they propose that Ukrainians are nazis. This would seem to indicate that the OP is a pro-russian sympathizer.
