Knives have been getting duller? :P

Same thing here. Crime is down but reporting is up.

History

King Trump II

Stalin was not capitalist. This happens in spite of the economic system.

Is Vance any better?

His “Mein Kampf”

Like the world’s worst haiku.

I’ll check here to see if everyone is off…

I skip ads by just hitting f5 until they stop.

I have Vanilla Ice’s “Ice Ice Baby” stuck in my head.

Even worse would be the terror groups like in Syria and Vietnam where they come into a town after the enemy has left and slaughter anyone they think did or could collaborate. They would also take all the food they could leaving populations to starve.

That isn’t a civil war though. It isn’t “pedantic” you just don’t know the definition of a civil war.

People in the US have been protected from the reality of war since the civil war in the 1860s. Even vets (a very small minority) of real wars get to come home at the end of it. The reality would be more like Vietnam or Syria were the war is your home and there is no escape. It is like the war against vaccines, people have forgotten the reality of life with those diseases and take the return of them very lightly.

That isn’t a civil war. That is an autocracy. If the people across the state were coming in a militia to take over that would be a civil war.

One thing you saw in places like Syria and the Balkans was a lot of revenge murders and groups that were essentially gangs terrorizing and enslaving towns.

I remember reading how people in the old Yugoslavia talked about how people they’d lived next to for generations suddenly turned on them. The same in Rwanda where groups were slaughtered en masse. People were packed into churches and the buildings set on fire, etc.

FYI, you can remove it with nail polish remover (acetone).

It reacts with water so the moisture in your skin makes it set immediately.

The only time I’ve used epoxy and had it truly last for years was when the handle came off of a cooking pot. It has held strong for 10+ years. I think the key was the plastic handle fit into a pressed metal fitting and the combination of that stabilization and the glue worked well.

I keep superglue in the fridge. It really helps it last longer.

Now struggle to keep the awkwardly shaped parts in position while it cures. “Gah! It moved!!!”
