Excuse the angle. Advocation in TX to 'be battle ready and ready to defend yourself'

I feel like the funniest thing here could happen, please let the left leaning texans pull a gun on the cops and ruin the image of the protests for good

it is pretty boring right now but you can view the Seattle protests via traffic cams since the city lets the public access all traffic cams in the city live. They are on the 2nd & Marion St camera right now outside of the federal building. They seem pretty peaceful at the moment though.

Edit: Someone threw a smoke bomb into the intersection and someone from the city is now moving the camera around occasionally.

Dude, there’s a general competency crisis in the bourgeoisie

Like another example is some dickhead bought the coffee shop nearest to me and it’s shit now because he literally though he could pull a check out of it without bothering to show up to oversee anything

Because being inside the business he bought would be like managing, and managing would be like work, and he just wanted to spend some money on something that would give him more money without learning anything or doing any work

You can’t pull a whole ass full time salary out of a business that employs like ten people without doing work to justify that salary

Same thing for flippers, multiply it times a million and that’s America in 2025

I see no attraction to being self-employed.

When you're self-employed, your business is your life. You will have little to no time for family, friends, or fun if you want to even remotely have a chance of turning a profit.

The 72 virgins thing is quite an overblown meme.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Houri

Mainstream view is 2 virgins.

That’s definitely not enough to forsake Jesus. Unless you’re Nick rekieta, then one crusty coke whore will do

They want to arrange a nationwide chimpout on the 14th, and several NGOs + Walmart has donated to the organizers. How effective it will be? Unsure, but I won't be going out on the 14th.

Walmart closed 200 stores for this moment.

Seattle PD is reporting shots fired near the Seattle courthouse. Possibly protest related?

When you're self-employed, your business is your life. You will have little to no time for family, friends, or fun if you want to even remotely have a chance of breaking even.

The wonder of being self-employed is that all success is yours but at the same time all failure is yours.

While the listing is 100% bait. Crazy to see people advocating for the idea of causing 'chaos' from within the June 14th Ceremony.

Morons are going to try and crash a military parade. Rick and Morty really increased those IQs.

Impossible! WA has the toughest gun laws on the west coast.

Washington has some of the best gun laws on the West coast. It's an open carry and shall issue CPL state. We get suppressors, SBRs, AOWs, and destructive devices. We're just missing out on machine guns.

In regards to the shooting in Seattle. 2 victims, man and woman, and the woman is likely to die. Shooter was wearing a "STAFF" shirt or uniform. It happened at the pioneer square light rail station and doesn't seem to have anything to do with the ICE stuff.

Does Florida's "stand your grand/king of castle" law not extend to vehicles?

In Oklahoma, if some libsh!t rioter attacks your car, and you feel your life is in danger - you can blow their brains out.

Caveat: a jury has to agree that you reasonably felt your life was in danger.

Lmao, white supremacist. If you say so.

It’s your life if you want to succeed and have a good reputation.

There’s just too many people with the stock market mentality that money does in fact grow on trees and doesn’t represent tangible effort

Trump says he's going to bring The Kennedy Center "back to the highest level, higher than it ever was before" at the opening for Les Mis.

“Did I ever tell you that I want to wear a big yellow smiley-face mask and then put on the CD version of Bobby McFerrin’s ‘Don’t Worry, Be Happy’ and then take a girl and a dog—a collie, a chow, a sharpei, it doesn’t really matter—and then hook up this transfusion pump, this IV set, and switch their blood, you know, pump the dog’s blood into the hardbody and vice versa, did I ever tell you this?” While I’m speaking I can hear the girl working on my feet humming one of the songs from Les Misérables to herself, and then Helga runs a moistened cotton ball across my nose, leaning close to the face, inspecting the pores. I laugh maniacally, then take a deep breath and touch my chest—expecting a heart to be thumping quickly, impatiently, but there’s nothing there, not even a beat.

I would hope the spics out there protesting in San Antonio would know better than to attempt to fuck with the Alamo.
