Yes, I've given up anything resembling a dream career in any field. I'm too autistic for careers, and I've accepted that I will only ever have a "job."

Being an unarmed security guard isn't so bad.

What's super ironic to me is that taxing them actually makes them safer because if they pay their fair share people wouldn't want to murder them as much as they do now.

Same. Feeding cake to a cat is animal abuse.

It tells us that the casting will be terrible. It's impressive that Chalamet and Zendaya were so bad in Dune that they've managed to retroactively ruin Villeneuve's films for me.

Sure, as long as you also remove ChatGPT.

I've been considering getting this game because I love Remedy, but I don't have any friends. Has anyone had much experience with the match-making portion of the game and can comment on it?

Two things can be true at once. Telling an American they aren't allowed to criticize any government in existence because their own is also bad is asinine.

Here's an interactive map which shows the scale of the looting:

Here's an article that goes into the specifics a bit more:

They're selling public land (trying to, anyway) to the highest bidder, with no rules about how the land will be used. Expect private golf courses, Airbnbs, luxury summer homes, etc.

I'm willing to stand in front of a bulldozer if it comes down to that.

The thing in Florida is encouraging, although that was at the State level rather than Federal. I'm sure there are organizations who are going to oppose this... if this happens it will be irreversible and will effectively ruin western states, and put a huge dent in local economies. This will also hurt the people who don't hike. People come to the western US from all over the world to use our public land.

It's so sad! I can't stop crying about it. Hiking is my entire life. I live in Washington and looked at an interactive map of the land they're trying to sell. All of my favorite spots are in danger.

If you look at the map you'll see how stupid it is... they're cutting everything into tiny pieces so that even the land they don't sell will lose it's recreational value. The PCT will likely be completely ruined because of this. The way they're cutting it up... there's no logic to it. They're doing this to hurt us.

 

This happened last night. It appears to be a coordinated political assassination. Be safe out there, things are heating up.
