    Invasions

    there are (virtually) no civilians in Gaza. if you can find it, go look at the voting data for their last several elections. Hamas may only have won by just over 50% of the vote, but over 40% of the remainder was for parties that want the same essential destruction of Israel.

    Why Aren't We Having Kids?

    the only way out of this mess is to fight, and breed children who will fight and drive society back to sanity. by not having children, she's indirectly condemning society in that regard. history is written by the victors, and change by those who show up.

    Why Aren't We Having Kids?

    Living Too Close to SpaceX

    look at Cleetus and The Freedom Factory, for another example. He just about single handedly revitalized the town with getting that track functioning and productive/profitable. So much so a developer wants to build housing... right next to the track! We know where that ends: dead track, dead...

    Living Too Close to SpaceX

    when NASCAR teams started moving en mass to bumfuck, NC, they too caused all kinds of improvements to the area like you described. funny part is, the locals didn't fight it as much. now, I can understand the dragging crashed shit through bird sanctuary area being a problem.

    nah. spread that shit all over. make sure we keep loudly pointing the finger at them. I want WW3 already. Personally, I don't see a way out of our current world and local situations, not without some SERIOUS pain brought to the forefront. Hard Times make Hard Men. Hard Men make Good Times...
