I feel like borderlands 1 was boring but had some high points, but the dlc really started to capture what the series would become. The general Knox dlc is still one of my favorites.

Maybe the bakers are just trying to get high at work?

Agreed. I feel as though capitalism is a good option for things which can have elastic demand. Luxury items, entertainment, etc can all benefit from a competitive market because I have the luxury of not needing to buy them. On the other hand, I do absolutely need food, housing, and healthcare in order to live. Applying supply and demand principles when demand must be inelastic only leads to people getting hurt.

My dream system would be one in which, as a baseline, all human requirements for survival are provided no matter the situation, and where currency is only used for luxuries.

Tell me you never served in the military without telling me you never served in the military.

She will sprint outside while screaming from time to time. Usually I let her run around for a little while and then scoop her up.

Could make decent insulation too

Wait, are you suggesting we address the material conditions which lead to violence and deaths of despair? What are you, some kind of lib?

I agree with the previous poster. Fuck off.

Also, it will take weeks for the whole process to get started again. Once deals are made, factories start production again, and containers are loaded onto ships, which will then take weeks to make it across the ocean. We’re talking months of supply chain shocks in the best possible case.

Cascadia baby!

I don’t think that’s correct. Plenty of us on the left have firearms, we just don’t make it our entire personality.

Edit: it won’t let me post the picture.

I don’t often run across a piece of pure poetry in the wild. Well said!

I mean, if the alternative is getting shipped to a torture prison in El Salvador with no due process? Not saying it’s a good alternative, but it is an alternative.

Hey hey, we also want people not to starve or go into horrific debt because of medical issues. Super clear indicators of fascism or something.

From all the reporting I’ve read CECOT is significantly worse than the Japanese internment camps. What America did to Japanese Americans was cruel and unjust, and I wouldn’t say conditions in the camps were good, but CECOT seems to be on a whole other level. Prisoners are confined in crowded bunk rooms, outside time is limited to one hour per day, and physical violence from the other prisoners and the guards seems to be the rule rather than the exception.
