Well I for one opened the thread and went “Ho-lee shit.” And then I showed my husband and aggressively demanded him to admit that this is a handsome boi.

So this internet stranger approves!

Haha was it a MD State Trooper?

But yeah, I hadn’t lived in MD for over 12 years when the bridge came down. My mom still called me at 0430 my time to tell me what was happening. Snapped me out of my sleep stupor state REAL quick.

It still feels like I can go home and use it, even if logically I know it’s not there anymore. And what happened to the night shift workers was DEVASTATING. I cannot even imagine what horror they went through in their final moments, and what their friends/families went through when they woke up the next morning. Its just super fucking sad all around.

Ah, the Key Bridge going to/from Dundalk, MD?

Man, I used to use that bridge all the fucking time. Got my first speeding ticket on that bridge.

Even though I don’t live in MD anymore, it’s still trippy to think about that just not existing anymore. Super tragic situation all around.

That’s me. I’m a fucking idiot when it comes to computer shit.

I feel like a goddamned wizard just opening up command prompt lmao.

So no, I’ve never booted from a USB. I definitely believe that I’m the minority on here though.

And I don’t watch Star Trek either.

Why am I even here?

Another FF8 enjoyer here! My husband and I got married on Halloween, so for the reception, I was Rinoa and he was Squall!

10/10 fantastic game!

As someone who unfortunately lives in Texas. Yes. Let this whole fuckin’ state secede, and I will happily indebt myself to whoever I have to, to gtfo to a bue state.

Let Texas leave and take LA, AL, FL, MS, and GA with it.

I would just feel bad for any kids who live in these states with asshat parents.

I hope he fucking sues the FUCK out of the county for wrongful imprisonment.

PLEASE let this man get a pay out!

Holy shit! Like right after I saw this I saw the picture wirh Van Hollen and him that was posted like an hour ago! I’m so grateful that I’m wrong!!! Now fucking bring him home!

Jesus, can we at least get some proof of life for this guy?!?! Like at least?!

Clocking in!

Oh I believe that 100%!

I suppose I’m a little more patient with it because I went through the same change myself, AND because I like people (finally) pointing out that we do have a system for socialized healthcare in America!

I mean, tbf, joining the military IS what made me start looking into the concept of Socialism and what it means.

Is the military socialism? No, us Enlisted have no power and the Officer corps is the “owning class”, but we have good, tax payer funded social benefits that I believe everyone should have access to.

It’s like a gateway drug into anti-capitalism idealogies. If the US is never going to go full socialist (or at least not in our lifetimes), then I think raising taxes and giving everyone TRICARE, VA Loan benefits, tuition assistance, and a pension will go a long way in solving most people’s biggest fears/relieving a metric fuckton of oppression caused by capitalism.

Also, having been to the Middle East and seen firsthand the stark difference of people driving around Ducatis and Lambos, parking in front malls inlaid with real gold, while 10 minutes up the road whole communities had built their shack homes in the desert with random odds and ends and thrown blankets over their windows was…I cant really describe the feeling I got. Dread, anger, immense sadness, just a whole myriad of negative emotions. Couple that with the intense religious fervor that is rampant in the region, and yeah, I have no idea how a military member can look at all that and be like “This. This is what America needs.”

Granted, yes, unfortunately a lot of our service men and women are still unfortunately extremely pro-Capitalism/Trump and Elon Musk fanboys…I just don’t know how.

Either way, my comment got long, but when people start in on the “The Army is Socialist!” Dont be mad. Educate! They’re at the very least coming from a place of “Fuck, we really could make everyones lives better if we give everyone these benefits that we enjoy so much!” And that shows compassion for others, which is something so fucking desperately needed right now.

You know what? I actually just saw her perform over the summer and she is still Queen status.

Better artist anyhow. You right!

Oof yeah. I’m so sorry about that.

I was never a Neil Gaiman girlie, not because of any vibes or anything, I was just reading other shit in my youth. But it was VERY clear from that thread that he was a very beloved author who touched a lot of lives. A LOT of people seem heartbroken about that.

Finding out those we look up to are awful incarnate is the worst feeling.

I am so fucking on board with this, lfg!

Maaaaannnn, all these people in here are clowning on her for her shitty music. But “Before He Cheats” was my way to own my “Drunk Basic White Lady” status at Karaoke. Now I can’t even be a stereotype anymore.

Jokes aside, fuck you Carrie Underwood. I was a fan in my youth and grew out of your music, but there was still two or three songs I got good nostalgia vibes from. Not anymore!

Ugh I hate when people I’ve supported turns out to be monsters.

Every time I see this quoted somewhere, I immediately think of that fateful moment on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Season 7, Episode 16, when they’re all at dinner in Hong Kong.

Lisa Rinna and Dorit Kemsley are feuding, and Rinna leans over the table and point blank just asks, “Were people doing coke in your bathroom?” 😂

Low key the dinner from weeks prior that Rinna is referencing WAS weird af (the whole table of women got up and just left her there alone to all go to the bathroom together), and chaotic, so I do think they were doing SOMETHING in the bathroom.

Bruh, you just made my fucking MONTH with the knowledge that this is on Steam! I never even thought to look for it there.

Holy nostalgia. I spent so many hours as a child trying to beat this game!

Just bought the complete pack for $2. Thank you for this!

That lady wishes she could be known for something like Leroy Jenkins.

Nah, she’s one of those family youtubers with a bunch of children, and they came under fire recently because it was found out that they live in a one bedroom apartment and her and her fiance share the bedroom while her kids slept on mattresses in the kitchen.

Ah, the Resilient Jenkins approach.
