Karrot is a used item app that has a feature where you take a picture of an item and it IDs the item and tells you what it’s worth. It’s pretty impressive. It could ID my houseplants better than some dedicated plant ID apps I’ve used. It’s not great with one of a kind items, but otherwise it’s surprisingly accurate.

His name is Hannibal Barka and he is a poodle/Aussie cattle dog mix. He’s an affectionate little cuddle bug and can jump like a kangaroo.

I would say that is comparing personal identity to a medical definition, two independent and separate concepts.

Personally, I look at people pointing this out like I look at people that feel the need to point out to others that a woman has breast implants. It’s her choice to do what she wants to her own body and pointing it out makes you look like a rude asshole.

You can’t go in and give 100% every day. You will burn out. Give 70% regularly. Only give 100% when shit really hits the fan. People will think you are a miracle worker.

Sounds like a great way to fake your death. The only problem is that everyone will think you died driving a Tesla.

I’m obviously no expert, but it is the people who are of value, not the land. I see evacuation as the most straightforward way to avoid loss of life or the enslavement of a free people. Taiwan has been useful, but it’s not like we don’t have military bases near enough in the Philippines and Okinawa. Taking the Taiwanese people permanently out of the reach of CCP dominance would be the biggest blow we could land against China.

I was kinda assuming it was a voluntary thing. Like the people are Taiwan, not the land.

Alabama isn’t THAT bad.

Give the Taiwanese people Alabama and move them there. Then give China an empty island

Under what definition of fascism do Democrats qualify?

The fact that one of those two parties will win does not mean we need to accept the DNC as a valid representative of the working classes, as they fix nothing and maintain imperialism.

They may or may not fix anything, but the RNC will make things worse. The RMC has enabled a fascist takeover that is stripping rights from LGBT people, spreading contagious diseases with antivax policy, abusing and shooting people dead in the street in the name of border security, initiating a coup in Venezuela by kidnapping a national leader, murdering sailors with drone strikes, and denying the basic civil liberties of millions of residents. You can tell me all day about how bad the DNC is but at the end of the day they are the least worst choice.

Every fascist government in history has taken power in large part because the opposition was too busy fighting amongst themselves. There need to be only to sides right now - fascism and anti-fascism.

Both the DNC and GOP are far-right parties of genocidal imperialists

And one of these will be running the country in 2028. Forming a coalition to fight them is a great long term goal, bit it takes time and momentum.

We need to stop treating capitalist-controlled and run elections as our primary political outlet

As of September 2025, 54% have a positive view of capitalism compared to 39% with a positive view of socialism. Those numbers are converging, but we have at least a decade or two before they cross. We just don’t have the numbers to pull it off.

revolutionary working class parties.

Unions. We need to build unions. When a majority of people see unions working for them against the capitalists, then they will be ready to accept something new.

Oh look, a meme HELPING fascism.

BMW driver’s can’t even change a tire in my experience.

I’ve definitely seen a couple places here in Chicago with $11 milkshakes. Jojo’s Shake Bar comes to mind.

I’ve often thought these would be great to move people from Chicago to various places along the lakeshore.

They can shift around a little bit, but they don’t really walk as a means of travel.

Dragonflies.

Their nymph phase is aquatic and in their adult phase they only fly. Their legs are only for grasping.
