Most make next to nothing and give up quickly. I don’t see the option to give up on being under surveillance.

Dio can you hear me, I am lost and so alone.
I’m asking for your guidance, won’t you come down from your throne?

The explanation I heard was that it was likely Mary and Peter hallucinated Jesus only a few days after he died. That’s a very common timeframe for when people hallucinate seeing dead loved ones, and the early descriptions in Bible match the flavor of dead loved-one hallucinations people typically have, with the figure assuring the person everything will be all right and whatnot. Other descriptions (like Jesus appearing to all twelve disciples or crowds of people) seem to have been written later more as persuasive arguments, with doubting Tomas acting as the stand-in for the skeptical listener. This is all from “How Jesus Became God” and I have no idea how mainstream or fringe the author’s views are.

I’ve heard theories that key people probably had hallucinations of Jesus a few days after he was killed, which was the big thing that helped launch him from yet-another-apocalyptic-preacher to (eventually) God himself. I don’t know how well these are accepted, though.

I can’t name the last time I watched a YouTube video with 100M views. If it’s that popular it’s probably not something I’m interested in.

It’s basically the perfect rage-bait question, because everyone immediately has an answer based on their emotions and assumes everyone else interpreted the core question the same way.

The paradox of brutalism.

Brutalism can go jump off a cliff.

They’re around here somewhere…

Eating some yogurt

I believe it. I also love that phrase and now consider it the official Texas version.

Haha! Yes! You found my Easter egg! Good job!

~God fucking damn it~

Even as a neurotypical person, I ain’t got time for that shit. Don’t be using code phrases or softened language around me. If you have something you want to communicate, it’s on you to meet sure your understood. It’s not on me to infer your meaning.

I mean, fair, but I still think it was a funny insult.

Nevermind that a lot of the purchases required reporting anyway since buying lots of guns does actually get the attention of law enforcement. People are acting like the US government is keeping its eyes closed.

The dude made a distinction between an AR and a regular rifle, implying the bullet travels further if it’s launched from an AR platform. I don’t think they know much about penetration characteristics.

If the lever action lower can function with a semi-auto bolt and buffer system, then the ATF is gonna call it semi-auto anyway and it would still fall under that law. That lower receiver doesn’t have space for a buffer, so you’re never gonna be able to run it semi-auto. This is just a box-fed lever action instead of a tube-fed one.

I suggest helping implement Approval Voting and then Sequential Proportional Approval Voting so we can ditch the two party system and have more than one party that supports citizens protecting themselves without having to paradoxically supporting a bunch of policies that target citizens for harmless behavior.

It’s funny because it’s weird. Normally you would expect that masculine traits would be argued for I’m a leader, so to straight-face claim the male leader needs to be made feminine is a funny inversion of social and gender roles.

It’s basically the reverse of that comedy where The Rock is the tooth fairy.
