He/him. Pro-freedom/2a mutualist. I spit more rhymes than a lazy susan and I'm innocent until my guilt is proven. Print guns, grow food, build communities.

Here's the author giving a talk, archived by the Library of Congress. Should probably download it because god knows what's gonna happen with the Library of Congress. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTgd...

Buckets of water don't fix these issues. Rifles and community do. You know what we call that? Militias. Too bad you're incapable of giving that same freedom to people in your own state and too bad your party is too spineless and busy fundraising to actually stand up for anything.

2 outcomes are possible. 1) DOGE actually saves money -> tax cuts for the rich. 2) DOGE doesn't save money -> tax cuts for the rich.

This is accurate. This is also not new to their playbook. They cry wolf and say 'these people are EVIL, vote for us and give us money' and then do nothing. Nothing. You give them power. Nothing. Money. Nothing. The last time the Dems flexed power was in the 90s. It's been a grift ever since.

During WW2 the US army needed over 750,000 typewriters to keep things functioning across all theatres. The need was so great they requisitioned civilian typewriters and created a national shortage. Typewriter repair units were seen as critical army personel. I'll do a thread on it at some point.

I mean, no one is going to stop you. You should also do this if you're so inclined.

Welp. www.imdb.com/title/tt2724...

So, one of the worst pieces of garbage about the 3d2a movement came out today and that's saying a lot. Tell me without telling me you don't know who Bob Marley is. "Meme shared by a 3D2A user suggesting a desire to kill police officers" What police officers?! There's no cops in this. None. Zero.

Getting seed planters ready for frost hardy plants. Good use of gallon jugs, these will get seed and water and start their condensation greenhouse effect Saturday. Keeps birds and critters out, requires no watering and can survive days of 20F without maintenance. I love gallon jug starters.

Yep. All of this. I'm just not sorry for being old and grumpy. Get off my lawn. Giving government unchecked power during wartime ends up with Foucault's boomerang.

Even if you choose not to get a firearm, and there are people who really shouldn't have firearms for their own reasons, you should carry around an IFAK and take stop the bleed. Get some good basic emergency medical training because car accidents/falls/etc can happen any time to any one.

All of this. I have more milsurp than basically everyone reading this. My carry gun is a double stack 9mm with an optic on it. Going with single stack milsurp or a revolver as your primary pistol is a REALLY bad choice. Gun tech has updated some in the last 75 years. Use what works now.

I'm partial to tartube, but any straightforward software to download YT videos will work. In this same vein, check out the 4 thieves vinegar collective.

a key take away from reading a lot of history for me: the people who survive hard times and eventually brutally humiliate their seemingly invincible enemies are not the people whose first response to adversity is “oh well, guess I’ll die”

There is truth to this. Lots of places are/have been republics with plenty of words about freedom and being of the people and all that. Most aren't. The USSR wasn't. Go read it's version of a constitution. Flowery language has no teeth on it's own.

just a quick note that if you’re trying to assign blame for a law promoted, passed, and signed into law by Democrats to someone other than Democrats, you are not a savvy politics knower, you’re in denial and it’s embarrassing

I'm glad they banned TikTok so I can share my data exclusively with American tech perverts

A bit of Saturday levity for everyone. There is a habanero variant called the Habanada that has the same taste and texture and flavor of a habanero with no spice. Zero SHU. It is exceptional for low heat threshold people and for the rest of us works great as a snacking pepper.
