Which is wrong anyway, the Wright brothers were born, raised, and died in Ohio, had their bicycle shop in Ohio, designed/built the first airplane in Ohio, and only took it to Kitty Hawk in NC for test flights.
Speaking as an Ohioan, NC can go fly a kite with that “first in flight” nonsense.
I had some business with a guy that had successfully lobbied politicians before, he described it as paying the price of a nice meal, and a $10k check to their reelection fund. Before that, I always assumed it would have to be much more, because $10k seems so paltry, but that was literally the figure.
The same cognitive dissonance that allows them to both act on, and excuse instances of molestation in their community/family, is the very same driver of their wanton disregard of the people harmed by republican policies. They see any instances of pedophilia in their ranks as “just a bad apple,” while they identify an entire race of people as rapists if a single news report shows a member of that race/minority group committing such an act. It’s entirely predicated on their belief that they are superior, and it is because of something inherent within them, that does not exist in others. They judge themselves not by their actions (and consequences of said actions) but by their intentions, while they have no such qualms demonizing any number of minority groups for the actions of a single member.
so, short answer, yes.
Long answer, yessssssssssssssssssssssssssss.
same morons that believed schools were putting out litter boxes for students, and that Haitian immigrants were eating pets. They’re hateful, racist, despicable people, who’s entire sense of self-worth is built on the idea that because they’re white they’re better than everyone else.
Since their internal polling had most favoring drumpf, I guess this is a win for their leadership. They saw those polls and were like “yeah, but no.”
On 5 November 1910,[2][3] on her 14th outbound voyage, carrying a mixed cargo including a number of pianos for Chile, Preussen was at 23:35 rammed by the small British cross-channel steamer Brighton 8 nautical miles (15 km) south of Newhaven.[4] Contrary to regulations, Brighton had tried to cross her bows, underestimating her high speed of 16 knots (30 km/h). Preussen was seriously damaged and lost much of her forward rigging (bowsprit, fore topgallant mast), making it impossible to steer the ship to safety.
Brighton returned to Newhaven to summon aid and the tug Alert was sent to assist Preussen. A November gale thwarted attempts to sail or tug her to safety in Dover Harbour. It was intended to anchor her off Dover, but both anchor chains broke, and Preussen was driven onto rocks at Crab Bay, where she sank as a result of the damage inflicted on her. While crew, cargo and some equipment could be saved from Preussen, with the keel broken she was rendered unsalvageable. She sits in 6 metres (3.3 fathoms) of water at 51°8.02′N 1°22.17′E. The Master of Brighton was found to be responsible for the accident and lost his licence as a result. A few ribs of Preussen can be seen off Crab Bay at low spring tides.
Wow, that captain messed up big time.
It’s true, this man has no penis.
because women approach him and treat THEMSELVES as sex objects
That’s some A+ victim blaming right there. E. Jean Carroll didn’t do shit
That’s a nice thing your mom did, and your tattoo is a great reminder that however bad we’re feeling in the moment, that “this too, shall pass.”
The ProPublica Report that this piece cites has more information
fucking heartbreaking. brian kemp, drumpf, samuel alito, clarence thomas, john roberts and the three Trump appointees — neil gorsuch, brett kavanaugh and amy coney barrett have blood on their hands.
Because the NRA and republicans, silly billy. Can’t let any sort of gun regulation pass, gotta get those corporate kickbacks from weapons manufacturers somehow!
Well it was only for a day, they thought they could intimidate me out of supporting the candidate I preferred. They are not perfect, but I still value a relationship with them 🤷♂️
Was playing DOTA 2 a while back, ended up playing against a 5 man team that included an account named “DannyMasterson.” I asked if it was really him, and someone on his team gave a semi-answer like "it just might be 😉 "
So I targeted his hero, and did a lot of all chat messages about how he was a POS rapist that’s going to prison, and how scientology is a cult of predators. I just know that it was actually him, and he was with 4 other scientology cunts. We demolished’em. Never saw his handle again.
I’ve been dealing with this for a while now. Family kicked me out of the house for supporting Bernie Sanders at one point. It sucks, because I love them very much, but they’re Racist with a capital R and die-hard republicans who worship drumpf. Every time we talked they would bait me with their BS, and even when we’re NOT talking about politics, it seems every gap in conversation is punctuated with all the vile things they’re trying not to say.
My therapist had some great advice. Said that if I value a relationship with them, then the price for having that relationship is never discussing politics.
I’m willing to pay that price, so I told them not to bring it up anymore, and I’ll do the same. It’s working for the most part, though that doesn’t stop other issues from coming up. But hey, that’s life! Wouldn’t be relatives if they didn’t frustrate you endlessly, I guess?
What’s the tattoo? I’m glad you were able to yeet that fucker out of ya 😅
Why does it need to be equal to population?
Because I was responding to the previous commenter that cited specifically those numbers.
I get what you’re saying, that other cultures are not as tolerant, and when said culture pops up in a previously tolerant area, it can cause tensions. To that I’d say that we have a system of government enforcing laws in a uniform manner across a region precisely because not everyone agrees uniformly. You can’t strip away the freedom to be wrong, you can only enforce rules that support equity, safety, and inclusion, and do so especially within local populations that seem to eschew it.
But also, not all migrants are intolerant. So assuming that they 1. are, and 2. will stay that way, is a xenophobic dog whistle.
Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 election was not due to any erosion in support for Donald Trump. Rather, not only did Trump’s raw vote total increase, but in the key states of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan, Trump’s share of the vote actually increased.
Still mind-boggling and a source of great personal disgust while being a national disgrace. One can only hope that enough people have soured on him since then, after countless displays of racism, xenophobia, sexism, authoritarianism, bigotry, and incompetence. A twice impeached loser felon grifter that’s clearly a russian asset should not stand a chance, yet here we are. Makes me sad.
Between the people trying to give you healthcare and secure your job, and the people trying to let your miscarrying wife bleed out in the parking lot of a for-profit hospital, some morons prefer the latter. Why? “because he’s racist like me!” seems to be the deciding factor. Yes, that is why my parents are voting for him. and my mom is a poll-worker 🤦♂️
lmao that dude is leaving nothing but debt and shame
are European countries regularly taking in migrant populations equal to their countries population?
It’s because Collin Farrell is a terrible actor that for some reason keeps getting big parts. He’s never been in anything good. In Bruge is OK despite him, and because of excellent performances from everyone else.
