Don't recall which logical fallacy I'm trying to think of, but tell me louis... How would 'our country' repay 'its debt' if we DON'T move to a bitcoin standard?
It's like saying "how will me not eating sugar at every meal make uncle joes foot grow back?" Nothing's going to do that, but there's no reason for me to suffer the same fate.
Moreover, why do I give a single tiny little shit whether politicians can pay back the money THEY borrowed? When they default, I'm not taking responsibility for their irresponsibility and would encourage the people who are owed, to go directly to joe biden, nancy pelosi, mit romney et al. You can get $2,000,000,000.00 out of the top TWENTY richest of them... so go for it. Sure, it's just pennies on the dollar, but hey, that's inflation.
Can't you see? It all makes perfect sense.
insurrection noun, in·sur·rec·tion ˌin(t)-sə-ˈrek-shən
Anything that scares the shit out of the cowards that rule over you.
Is it just me? I always thought 'did the groundhog see his shadow' just meant 'was it sunny on groundhog day?'.
This whole - pull the groundhog out of his hole and talk to him - crap makes people who believe groundhogs can predict the weather look like crazy people.
"What is The Rhône."
I would say it boggles the mind, but not really so much anymore.
Interesting that according to most states laws you can use lethal force in only a few specific instances. Typically something like when it is "necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm or to prevent the imminent commission of a forcible felony. "
Yet they don't even hold to that standard when starting a WAR.
It's always 'our national interest'. Could you imagine if we were permitted to use lethal force to achieve or maintain 'our interests'?
BTW, I nearly said 'when declaring war' ... but they don't really do that anymore, do they?
He looks like the kind of bird that would ask you a riddle before he lets you cross a bridge or something!
3420
Because every number should have 420 in it.
I had to choose between two:
"The lesson from history is that no one ever learns a lesson from history."
I couldn't find the other, but something along the lines of
'We don't study history so that we're not 'doomed to repeat it', we study history because it WILL repeat'.
Both form some redneck hippy duck farmer (who apparently now is also an 'anti war commie'.
As ever, well said Jack.
Did your medical cannabis doctor send you a thank you note after your appointment? Not what I would have expected from the LEAST expensive one that I found on a road side sign, but yea, they were great. Beyond the cost and the ease, Dr. Olson was great and very informative.
My wife had gotten someone elsewhere for twice the price who asked her a few questions, checked some boxes and went on to the next call.
Dr. Olson took her time and answered all my questions and even dug deep into some of the terpene options etc.
If you're in PA and need to get your 'certification' I recommend them.. um... highly.

Where's the one where Hulk Hogan and Iron Sheik went along too?
That's fascinating, sounds a lot like the when one guy finally got a 4 minute mile, then everybody did. Fascinating that effect works with 'non human stimuli' as well.
"Where the fuck's my truck!?!?!"
So some years back I got a welder. Hadn't welded since a a 'tech skills' class in college that included a two week stick welding class. A friend wanted to do a MIG class at Eastwood. We did that and according to the instructor I did well.
After that I decided to try to fix a 'sun dial' thing that I got my wife years back and a limb fell down on. It was cast iron which I'd been told was challenging to weld. It wasn't pretty but good enough for my second time welding in 25 years and it worked, so I shared my results in a group that I was in on fecesbook.
Most were like 'good for you figuring it out / making it work', one guy said something along the lines of 'I love it when people break out their 'hobbyist welder' and blablabla... and ended with 'when it breaks again in six months do this or that (not really sure why I didn't pay better attention to what he said).
Anyway, I haven't been on fecesbook for at least 5 or 6 years now, but originally intended to share a photo there to say 'fuck you' to the guy who shit on my 'day of small beginnings', but instead I decided to address everyone else.
Sometimes when you try to figure shit out, or make shit work, it works and it lasts, so do what you can do, try to do what you can't and figure out what you can figure out, and don't worry about what anyone says about how well you do it.
