Oh God, please don't turn this into a Pokemon thread. I would much rather we go back to Captain Planet.

Police letting MS-13 trafficers go. Presidents inviting them over the border. Judges housing them. Senators going to El Salvador to free them. Mayors housing them in hotels. It honestly seems like parts of the government are legitimately in bed with the gang.

Why would this be surprising?

1. There's a National Socialist group in the southwest that wants to return the Southwest US to Mexico to make an Ethnostate out of it. Razorfist covered it in one video, they have even started getting affiliated politicians elected in Cali/AZ/NM.
2. That's exactly what the Cartels did in Mexico. Why wouldn't they do it here, too?

What the fuck is this Monday.
SO MANY HABBENNINGS
-Pope fucking croak
-Klaus Shwab gtfo
-Kanye did unspeakable shit to his cousin
and i probably missed a couple things

 

[namelesstacotruck]

Trump has every reason to think guys like Powell were just waiting to crash the economy when he returned to the White House.

Vance literally talked about how Globohomo did that to the dumb English bitch in one of his interviews pre election and they considered it a major danger statement.

Only reason thet havent pulled a trigger is too many powerful people would also be a casuality.

What's the problem with gum syrup? I looked it up and it's simple syrup with Acacia tree sap added to give a "silky" texture. Doesn't seem that bad? Genuine question.

And HFCS is just a sweetener, why are people upset?
These highly stabilized ice creams taste disgusting and have unpleasant textures. Consoooooming massive amounts of emulsifiers is probably bad for people (colon cancer). No American needs to eat ice cream that doesn't melt; this is only happening because of corporate greed.

 

[Dave The Diver]

Ice cream is really easy to make at home. Tastes better, too. Try that instead. You don't even need one of those fancy machines.

I have tried making ice cream at home before. You really do need an ice cream making machine if you want that smooth texture because taking the product out of the freezer every 15-20 minutes to mix it up again and break down the ice crystals gets very tiresome .

Trump dunks on Jerome Powell, calling him 'a major loser.'

On the schizoid side of things

Greg claims that Trump and Powell are in cahoots to bring about a fedcoin and token system.

-Kanye did unspeakable shit to his cousin

Ye did some incest shit to his cousin when they were kids. Not recently.

He really needs to be 5150'd. Have a psych eval and find some meds that work for him. Where he can be creative and not feel the need to stop taking them to get his mojo going.

Listen, best I can do is limit it to Hoenn. That kind of has a Captain Planet plot going on with Team Magma and Team Aqua.

Honestly, how was Roe vs Wade overturned again? Feels like it should've been impossible seeing the current state of the judiciary.

Umm, sweaty there's a little thing called BEING BASED???

I think the original decision was justified by the interstate commerce clause or some bullshit. It was overturned based on a 10th amendment argument. The founders didn't specify abortion laws in the constitution and the DNC refused to codify it while in power so it got kicked back to the states.

It doesn't help that there's so much bullshit surrounding the original case.
Turns out the "Jane Roe" plaintiff was actually lying and the case was brought about on false premises!!
Oh, no, wait, on her deathbed she confessed that she was getting paid off by the Evangelicals and she wasn't lying when she was a plaintiff?

Fucking... what??

Just make your ice cream. I got a cheap machine off Amazon for $20. You can get them for free on Facebook free stuff groups. I make my own with coconut cream, coconut sugar, and fresh fruit. Just have to check on it every ten minutes. If you spend a little more you can get a machine that shuts itself off when it's done so you can just walk away.

I feel like claims that losing the 3 Gorges dam would headshot China are overstated. It would definitely cause them a lot of trouble and be a big hit in the pocketbook but it wouldn't cripple them by a long shot.

oh this is going to be fun.

Granted, I'm part of this group, but maybe make it permissible to go away via bankruptcy again?

Most a third of a billion people would be erased in minutes if it was to fail...

It would flood and deposit a layer of sediment over the agricultural region responsible for half of their crop output (incl 2/3 of rice production).

The 400 million people downriver from the dam don't all live clustered right around the dam's base, retard. Yichang, the first large city downstream from the dam, would take 30 minutes to an hour for the water to reach. Wuhan is 300km away and would have 12 hours or more of warning, and Nanjing and Shanghai are around 1000-1200km away.

Also China isn't some state of primitive cavemen, they do have warning systems and such because the danger is well known.

Its my understanding that people getting pricey degrees like say doctors would instantly declare bankruptcy and being doctors have no problem getting new loans etc.

The problem with non dischargible debt is it created infinite demand and the University sucked up every mouth breathing retard to saddle them with degrees that were worthless.

I would basically institute a tax on endownments meaning a student should be able to argue that their polysci degree isnt earning what they paid for it.

So to make people whole eat the endownments that would make university more selective about shit.

The consequences of the dam being destroyed are catastrophic and very real. The question everyone glosses over is HOW this would happen.

The only realistic way I can think of is via ICBMs because I don't see how anything else would have the range or the fire volume to survive the gauntlet of China's ground and air defenses to commit this warcrime.

Sounds like you have too much air in the mixture if you are getting ice crystals like that. I make it with a machine and using the plastic bag method and never have issues with crystals forming.

What is your process?

In truth the panic would kill more people then the flood. Imagine being a Chink in Wuhan and your told the damn has collapsed, shit would get wild as everyone tries to flee.

For the record I don't hate individual Chinks, just their government and agents. The average dude living in Wuhan is just trying to get by and do the best he can for his family under the CCP. I bear him no hate.

The Chink officials and party members....no so much. I would do the happy merchant bit if I heard Chairman Meow died due to his own policies.
