  1. What's the closing price of the DJIA tomorrow? Apparently you can predict the future. πŸ˜†
  2. Lots of teenagers kill themselves with cars. Usually they're drunk. However car deaths have been going down as more and more people switch to cannabis from alcohol. Nationwide car accident fatalities have slightly decreased compared to the same period last year, according to recent data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Almost always teenagers killing themselves it's because of excessive speed, not harmless weed. Show me one accident where speed wasn't a factor and the only risk factor was weed. C'mon, that's absurd. πŸ™„
  3. White-outs. Uhhh, I never had WOs until my 40s. And I smoked red hash oil in high school. I'm sticking with my original statement --this is not normal for a healthy 15 year old. Β―\_(ツ)_/Β―
  4. Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy have already dispatched emissaries across the US government ahead of their mission to slash public spending as joint heads of β€œDoge” (the so-called β€œdepartment of government efficiency”), a non-governmental body ordered by Donald Trump to help realize his goal of a radical government shake-up. Their travel budget got turned on so they're spending money on first class airfare, luxury hotels and $500 meals on expense account... To "save" money. Yeah, that's the ticket. πŸ˜€ Business travel is so cheap nowadays. 🌴 Once again the rules only apply to you dirty peasants not the Dark MAGA elitists. Saving money on the backs of the little people for the MAGA elitists to wine and dine. 🍷
  5. Really? My impression is that middle class Thai people are better off than poor Americans because of the elevated costs of living. Let's take one example... Naam Ngiao 50B $1.44USD Middle Class Thai people earning 500B per day can afford this. What would the equivalent cost in America? Probably $8-15 for lunch at Subway or McDonald's. That's expensive for poor Americans. Their budget is a $5 bean and cheese burrito at Safeway or the gas station. And good luck finding a $5 burrito anymore. Maybe $8 up. Inflation. Some urban middle class individuals in developing countries might have a comparable lifestyle to lower-income Westerners. Cost of living: While a "poor" Westerner might have a higher income, the cost of living in Western countries can also be significantly higher, impacting purchasing power.
  6. Koh Tao, Thailand ("Death Island") Reputation: Notorious for a number of mysterious tourist deaths and disappearances over the past decade, some of which remain unsolved. Risks: Alleged corruption, lack of transparent investigations, and reports of accidents, murders, or suicides. Reality: The majority of visitors enjoy their stay safely, but the high-profile cases have led to its ominous nickname. I think it's the "unsolved murders" thing that upsets people. Every island in the world has people die, including tourists in weird deaths in their hotel rooms, etc. It would be strange if no one ever died on an island. I'm guessing Port Moresby on PNG is much, much more dangerous than KT. ☠️
  7. Isn't Northern Ireland in the UK? πŸ˜„
  8. Uhh, I think that's called "heroin". No healthy 15 year old faints from smoking weed.
  9. How many primary votes did Trump get? Big fat zero βˆ…. When you guys repeat those stupid KGB talking points it really does make you look gullible and dumb. πŸ˜…
  10. You thought wrong. You paid the foreign ATM fee disclosed in the agreement you agreed to when you opened the bank account. PROTIP: My US credit card charges no foreign fee on purchases and even gives me about 2% of the charge back. On $1000 of charges, they pay me $20. I'm rich, woo hoo. ☺️
  11. So you're against Republican tax cuts going to foreign owners of US corporations then? Because that's where US taxpayer dollars go if corporate rates are cut. Sure you are, Cubby. Sure you are. πŸ™„
  12. Died last week? Two years ago a 48 year old British diving instructor died of "natural causes". Weird, huh. πŸ’ The body of 48 year old diving instructor Neil Giblin, from Birmingham, UK, was found dead in his rented bungalow on the island after he failed to turn up to a diving lesson.
  13. Call me old fashioned but there's still plenty of ways to kill yourself with just a surfboard. You don't need to add the kite to do that. πŸ‘
  14. Please advise when you became a Billionaire? Because if not, you don't exist to the people you worship. 🀣
  15. Democracy has failed the US. It began to get captured by lobbyists in the late 70s. Then in the 80s all the crazy people were set free from mental hospitals with no mental health monitoring or treatment. That's when you started seeing homeless people on the streets. Also in the 80s, the rich people who ran universities decided to make tuition unaffordable for the middle class. They saw the inside corporate plans to outsource factory jobs to Asia and automation from robots so they knew there would be fewer jobs in the future in America so they wanted to make it more difficult to compete with their upper middle class Biff and Muffy. Housing was pretty reasonable priced until late 90s. That's when the corporate greed exploded in real estate and increasing profit every year became their god they worshipped and they started creating derivative securities based on total bull<deleted>. All the while they figured out how to make themselves richer while middle class people got poorer. Like eliminating the rule preventing corporations from buying back their own stock and using the money to reinvest in their factories. That's when they decided to outsource and pay themselves huge "dividends". Basically sucking the blood of middle class Americans like capitalist vampires. Democracy failed us because it let our infrastructure degrade because all the money went to tax cuts for rich people. Democracy failed us because it let the prices for real estate escalate far beyond wage increases to become unaffordable. Maybe it's time to try a Dictator...? In a week, it's the Find Out phase. Will the slim majority of American voters (<2%) "find out" that they voted for a liar? That's he's not really going to be a dictator on Day 1. Not then, not never. Mexico was never going to pay for the wall. He knew it. He just said it to make the "mark" (the gullible victim) feel good. That's all that matters to the victims as they get addicted to "feeling good" every time their hero says something disgusting or tells some crazy lie like the governor of California signed a law preventing LA from getting enough water --there is no such thing he just told a lie because that's what Fascists do. Don't worry. (Toxic nicknames removed) Donnie is a total loudmouth lying <deleted> he's good at making rambling speeches at his hate rallies but actually running government efficiently? "Administrative chaos" Running the federal government is hard work and the <deleted> just wants to play golf bang porn stars and disco dance to the gayest song ever by the Village People that he plays all the time. And there's significant uhhh "challenges" for him to uhhh "overcome" to become as successful as Hitler was at destroying Germany's democracy within only 2 months. His Billionaire buddies like Elmo & Rama Dama Ding Dong need tax cuts. When you give money to poor people it makes them dependent and lazy. But when you give money to Rich people it makes them bold and independent and entrepreneur and stuff. πŸ€‘ ChatGPT says slow your roll, homie. The historical context of Adolf Hitler's rise to power in Germany and the legal mechanisms he used to consolidate authority are unique to the Weimar Republic's fragile political system. In the United States, there are significant differences in constitutional structure, legal safeguards, and political culture that make such a rapid and total consolidation of power far more difficult. Here's why: 1. Constitutional Framework The U.S. Constitution provides a strong system of checks and balances between the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. Even with majority support in Congress, U.S. presidents do not have the same level of control over legislation and state powers as Hitler gained under the Enabling Act. 2. Federalism Power is divided between the federal government and the states, making it harder for a single Adolf Hitler's rise to dictatorship in Germany was enabled by a combination of factors that made it uniquely possible under the Weimar Constitution and the socio-political conditions of 1933. His consolidation of power involved legal maneuvers like the Reichstag Fire Decree and the Enabling Act, which effectively dismantled checks and balances and gave him dictatorial powers. In the United States, the situation is vastly different due to its strong constitutional framework, established separation of powers, and a long history of democratic norms. Here are some key points to consider: Why It’s More Difficult in the U.S. 1. Checks and Balances: The U.S. Constitution divides power between the executive, legislative, and judicial branches, making it harder for any single individual to consolidate power. 2. Federalism: Power is distributed across federal, state, and local governments, which creates additional barriers to authoritarian control. 3. Legal Protections: The U.S. has robust legal protections for civil liberties, and changes to these require navigating complex legislative or judicial processes. 4. Military and Law Enforcement: The U.S. military and law enforcement agencies are designed to serve the Constitution, not individual leaders, reducing the risk of them being co-opted for political purposes. Could Trump Attempt It? Donald Trump, like any political leader, could theoretically attempt to consolidate power. However, such a move would likely face significant resistance from: Congress: Even a partisan Congress would be unlikely to fully abdicate its power, as doing so would undermine its members' authority. The Judiciary: Federal courts, including the Supreme Court, serve as a bulwark against executive overreach. The Media and Public: A free press and active civil society provide additional barriers to authoritarianism. Personality Factors While Trump has shown an interest in pushing the boundaries of executive power, his approach has often been characterized by legal challenges, administrative chaos, and reliance on loyalists rather than systematic restructuring of institutions. This contrasts sharply with Hitler's methodical and strategic approach to dismantling the Weimar Republic's democratic structures. Conclusion While Trump could attempt to undermine democratic norms, the structure of the U.S. government, combined with his historical tendencies toward disorganization, makes it highly unlikely that he could replicate Hitler's rapid consolidation of power. However, the erosion of democratic norms over time is always a concern, and vigilance is key to preserving institutional integrity.
  16. "Hopes" Sine he got absolutely nothing last time. At the Helsinki Summit on July 16, 2018 no clear concessions or agreements were explicitly disclosed publicly from the summit. Trump and Putin stated they discussed arms control, counterterrorism, and other global issues, but no concrete agreements were announced. No explicit concessions have been officially confirmed. Bwahahahahahahahahahahaha. Suckers. πŸ˜€
  17. Unfortunately my Beard looks like Paul McCartney's pretty scraggly and makes me look homeless. I shave once a week. πŸ˜ƒ
  18. I only use legitimate websites, sorry Troll. That's not legit. Obviously they have no idea what USPS Priority International mail is because they're hackers. "EMS" bwahahahahahahahahahahaha
  19. True. But the only time Melanie Knauss gives a genuine smile is when she was looking into Justin Trudeau's eyes. Harris is a cop and when she smiles she looks like the prosecutor after the perp gets sentenced to life. I warned Democrats that Harris wasn't popular --thats why she lost to a doddering old man in the 2020 primary. πŸ˜„
  20. US announces $25m reward for arrest of Venezuela's Maduro MAGA should be angry. Isn't the Dotard's arrest worth a lot more than that South American commie? Donnie is the world's greatest criminal Conman Timeshare Salesman πŸ†
  21. I already explained how movie sets work. Nothing you said disproves what I already said in any way. πŸ˜„ Yes, movie sets typically use specially designed blank ammunition that is visually distinguishable from live rounds to ensure safety. These blanks have several key characteristics: 1. No Bullet: Unlike live ammunition, blanks do not have a projectile (the bullet) at the tip. Instead, the cartridge may be crimped or sealed with wax, paper, or plastic to hold the gunpowder in place. 2. Color Coding: Many blanks are color-coded or marked in a way that sets them apart from live rounds. For example, they may have colored tips or distinct markings on the casing. 3. Modified Casings: The casings of blanks may be drilled with holes or notched to further distinguish them from live rounds. These modifications are easily visible and indicate that they are not capable of firing a projectile. 4. Training and Protocols: Film crews are trained to handle firearms safely, and only licensed armorers or firearms experts manage and load blanks. The ammunition is inspected thoroughly before use. Even with these safeguards, there have been tragic accidents in the past due to improper handling, which is why strict protocols and additional measures, like using non-functional prop guns or digital effects, are increasingly preferred.
  22. They don't have "EMS" in America. USPS Priority International mail starts at $59.50 for an envelope.
  23. I can assure you that the Valley Girl upspeak is much more of a threat than The Fry. It's already invaded Australia. Australians often sound like they're asking a question because of a linguistic feature called "Australian Question Intonation" (AQI), where they naturally raise their pitch at the end of a sentence, even when making a statement, giving the impression of a question; this can be interpreted as a way to convey politeness, uncertainty, or a desire for confirmation from the listener. Everything they say sounds like a question. πŸ˜ƒ
  24. Did she offer to dismantle their TV set so she could remove the chip that's spying on them? Tweakers.πŸ˜‹
  25. Dark Shadows? Barnabas Collins says HELLO πŸ‘‹
