So, I work in a gun store(part time), if you think bump stocks are unethical, look up(or don’t) a binary trigger. Those, as far as I know, have never been banned, and are far more effective when it comes to trying to attempt to increase fire rate.

To be honest, a lot of gun legislation is really ineffective. The amount of loopholes etc, are kinda insane. If we’re going to talk about gun legislation, it needs to be a helluva lot more than a part ban on “assault style” firearms, until then, it’s just pandering for votes imo.

(Please don’t assume I am a crazy arsenal wielding person. I actually don’t own any firearms at this moment despite my part time occupation.)

I work in garage door repair/replacement.

Picked up peglin recently and I’ve gone back for a mech warrior run. Few others get cycled in as well. But those two the most right now.

I live near Rochester, MN. This is hilarious. I’m sending it to many people I know

Precisely. Best of luck to you my friend on your journey. Mine has been a wild ride and I’m not even a year into it.

As am I. Also solo. I’ve talked to a ton of small business owners, and the difference between small business owners and corporations is you have to be willing to fuck people over to become more than “the little guy”. So, I think people like us are in the “not evil” category because our goals aren’t just to simply “make money line go up.” However, because of that, we will forever be “the little guy”

Looks like a golf green and he definitely has a club, so, “reading the green”, he’s looking for any small hills or valleys in the grass to get to the hole. Golf greens are designed with many different slopes to make putting harder.

We need devs, like the maker of the Falcon 4 game to “leak” source code. Its the only reason the worlds premier combat flight sim run on a game released in the 90’s.

Should I be talking about a game that released the same year I was born? No. I’m so glad someone kept it all.

Ew. As an American, and a midwestern at that, I’m happy to say I’ve never heard of that, though, honestly, not that far fetched either unfortunately.

My biggest thing personally is the UI. Which is also getting a facelift. It’s not super intuitive. I think the overhauled tutorials, along with some UI changes are going to make this game exponentially more accessible.

I’m not a X4 vet either. I have a couple hundred hours. Which, the X4 vets will have saves with hundreds or thousands of hours. But, I feel like I’ve barely scratched the surface. I’m not sure what the price is. I bought it on sale about a year ago. Though, even if I spent $70(which it is not) I definitely have gotten enough enjoyment to justify that! I think it goes on sale fairly regularly though if the price is a bit too much for you now!

100%. And yeah, I figured it was something like that, I’m so terrible at conveying how I’m actually coming across over text so sorry if I was combative.

I wasn’t trying to take away from what you were saying at all, cause like I said, I actually agree with like 95% of what you’ve said, I’m just totally disenfranchised with things on a federal level.

Again though, like I have been saying, you’re in an increasingly small number of Americans that can actually say they have a tangible voice right now, make it count! I just wish it applied to more. Good luck and good voting, I hope you get the outcome you want.

I do appreciate the fact check. Especially because I did say votes were growing for 3rd party, and that isn’t true. I just don’t understand the moral high horses people get on around this time, which again, in your circumstance, is very valid. But, that’s an increasingly shrinking number of Americans that can say what you do. It’s sad. Just keep that in the back of your mind, basically, unless they’re your neighbor, odds are, their vote also doesn’t matter. Like at all. It actively depresses me haha I would like to live somewhere where I feel like I had a voice.

And yes, locally, I’m getting more involved! I live in a small town of 3000 so yeah, my votes feels impactful and something I actually take seriously. You also tend not to have nut jobs because they’re not worried about such massive hot button problems. I like local government lol

Are you trying to miss my point? Whether I vote or not is actually meaningless. Nothing I do is going to “do much of anything.”

That’s the point. Guess what, the party that best represents me when it comes to voting season, is anything but the status quo. Because the status quo doesn’t work for me. Simple as that. If I vote blue, doesn’t matter, if I vote red, doesn’t matter. There’s 0 moral grandstanding. My vote is actually 100% meaningless, (in other words: empty, hollow, insignificant, mindless, nonsense, nonsensical, pointless, purposeless, senseless, unmeaning, vacuous). Unless it’s at a local level.

Voting anything other than status quo at least makes it worth my time to go stand it line, for me. It’s how I personally justify wasting a few hours of my day. And that’s true for 90% of Americans whether they want to believe it or not. Voting is meaningless. This “democracy” is broken.

I’m glad you do! Then I would be in your boat as well. Your vote matters, sincerely, for the rest of us, use it.

I have yet to say who I’ll vote for, but, I’m not really a leftist, so likely not their non existent candidate.

I don’t think it’s going to be a difference. Or be anymore valuable than voting for a main party, but, it seems every election, the # of votes not going to republican or democrat is growing. (I don’t actually have the data to back that but I think I heard that the last 2 elections, I can try to look if it’s a big deal.) I would rather vote in a manner that, hopefully, elected officials can at least put into a data set, that says “hmmm looks like Americans are more and more disillusioned by this” and maybe that can lead to something. For me, in a not competitive area, that’s way more compelling than the status quo if you get me.

Just curious, do you live in one of fewer than 10% of districts that’s actually a battleground area? Otherwise, sorry, your vote is meaningless anyway. Gerrymandering guarantees that! Sorry if your feeling of moral superiority fades now.

At the end of the day you can’t blame the user for making do with a systemically broken process. For me, someone like 90+% of Americans, my vote actually, provably, does not matter. At all. I would rather be a part of the record setting number of 3rd party voters, signaling to the system, that we know it’s fucked, and we’re not going to play anymore.

If my vote mattered, I 1000% agree with you. But it doesn’t, so I don’t.

I was just hoping for an update on this last week. Awesome!

Here are some species that cats helped drive to extinction in Australia alone.

To add on, cats have contributed to many many species extinction. Here are some examples just from Australia alone.
