Linkin Park: One More Light
My sister went through some horrible, dark stuff in 2017 right around when this song came out and this song will always make me cry.
Every now and then I listen to it, just to remind myself of how proud of her I am that she came through it all. Not only that, but also how selfishly grateful I am that she did.
My best friend, forever. 🤎

Let's add 'rednecks' to the special word list. Only rednecks can say redneck. How about other words, Cajun, Coonass, hillbilly, Californian, yankee, limey, slut, ho, stud, greaser, transphobe, trans, motherfucker, cuckold, cuck, gigolo, gymrat, spandex cowboy, etc.? Any suggestions?
I'm a gymrat and proud. Don't care who calls me it ![]()

Maybe not from starting, but surely from continuing. If Germans would not have voted for him, then he would not have had the power to do the things he did.
If my memory of history is correct, people did vote against Hitler, in 1932 where he lost the chance of a 7 year seat as German President.
Yet he rose to power by proxy of being Chancellor in 1934, without public vote and still done horrible shit from there.

In an ideal world, yes. And even in most non-ideal worlds still. But if chances of getting fascists in power are somewhat likely, then you'd better vote for the least bad option.Quote by noll
Voting for the least bad option now might be the only chance one has got to make sure they'll be able to vote for a better option in the future.
Honestly, I think that telling a person what you would do with their vote is a bad thing, and that is one reasaon why votes cant be passed on to others.
What person A thinks about politics should not have an impression on what person B thinks, political views should always be individual, without influence as different policies will have a greater or lesser impact on others than it will on yourself.
Unfortunately, these days people are far too concerned with fitting in with others, or trying to force others into their own cookie cutter, than they are about doing ther own thing.
A vote held back because I dont believe in a candidate or party is not wasted, it is only a shame that there is a lack of belief in the ability for any of those people to lead.
If you do still want to call it a waste, then blame the candidates as they are the ones who desperately want the votes, but not putting in the work to give people the belief.

Yes it's a thread about mocking conservatives, specifically the ones who spread misinformation or in general have shitty or hypocritical takes. I concur with mocking shitty/hypocritical takes.
If you don't like it, feel free to partake in any of the thousands of threads here that don't trigger you. But we both know you won't because you have a persecution complex and your identity is very much attached to being a victim.
Maybe offer InkandArt the braille version next time he asks. Just a thought.

Voting for a third candidate or a candidate from a less popular party is better than just not voting. But that is stupid as well. Who are you trying to fool… putting propaganda forward that Biden is just as bad as Trump so might as well not vote is exactly what the republicans want. “Voting just to vote… is the only way a vote can be wasted” lol what an incredibly dumb statement. The reason hitler came to power is because 30% of Germans thought just like you do. 30% just stuck their heads in the ground and allowed 30% of the far right take over.
This isnt sticking my head in the ground. Hitler was always going to do what he done and unfortunately nobody could stop him from starting.
I openly don't know enough about the USA and potential candidates from other parties, so I only have Trump and Biden to compare to in recent history, so I limited my comment to only those two in my view.
However, Biden can barely speak or even remember his own name, can't follow simple directions on and off of stage and is showing many signs of Dementia (I know it well, I have seen it twice in my short adult life). People in the real world start to have their property signed over to relatives at this stage, yet people still want Biden to be POTUS just in spite of Trump? That is such a hazard, not only to US politics and the image of the USA as a whole, but also to Joe himself.
However, being from the UK, I do not have any current potential candidate or party as a whole that I believe in.
Sure, there are less popular options to the population than Conservative and Labour leaders in The UK, I just dont believe in them. Although I know one of those two will win, both would likely give me benefit and misfortune.
I believe your vote is supposed to go towards the person/party which you believe in the most, not to those which you dislike the least.
You wouldn't put your money into a bank you knew was going to be in administration next week, you'd hold onto it until a better option is available. As such, I will not be voting for any party until there is someone that I have some kind of belief in. Hopefully that changes before the next election, though unlikely.

Please tell me why vegetarians won't eat meat ...but wear leather shoes ,belts, coats and purses. .........It's all a matter of choice...don't you think ....
This is seems like a very narrow minded view on diets, not to mention a poor comparison to politics.
Many vegetarians do indeed wear leather clothing.
However, there are benefits to a vegetarian diet that do not include an opposition to the killing of animals for their resources;
- Better cardio vascular health,
- Lower risk of diabetes,
- Lower cholesterol,
- Digestive issues,
- Lower toxic contaminants,
- Helps reduce skin conditions,
- Helps losing weight.
Not to mention a vegetarian diet is exceptionally cheaper with less links to cancer than the diet of a carnivore.
However, there are also lots of vegetarians that will refuse to wear and/or endorse leather items, and most vegans will also take a very strong opposition to it.
However, those same examples above also apply to vegans. Not all vegans avoid meat and leather products etc for one reason... Some (seemingly most) avoid it for the health benefits, others because they are against killing animals for their resources.
But anyway, back to the second point, and keeping the thread on track;

If you don't like whom is running ...don't vote ...let your neighbor decide whom is elected!!🍷"
I am inclined to agree with you on that point. I don't think I will vote in the next UK election.
I do think that your vote should only be put forward when there is a candidate you believe worthy to lead your own nation. Neither the US or the UK has viable options in my view. Voting just to vote I truly believe is the only way a vote can be wasted.

I've just been trying a different service that claims to render multiple actors. Less than inspiring results so far. Especially when it renders people without legs or their ass on backwards or, in this case, well, words fail me.
I think this is referred to as AI Fail..
This has made my day. 😂😂
I've spent most of the day getting pissed off with weird, extra limbs being generated. I slammed my tab shut and gave up for the weekend.
RE the hair thing above: there are a number of apps that can change the hair once you are happy with the image. Although, some struggle with a side-on profile.
Facetune used to be a pretty good all rounder for me, not sure what its like these days though as i have been self-learning how to edit hair in Adobe. It's fecking hard.
Of course! Men just dont get compliments as much as we do.
I like to make my guy feel good about himself (and he all the reasons to) just as he gives me frequent ego boosts.
If a random guy rends an unprovoked dick pic though, i'll rate it a maximum 4/10 even if i do think its much better.
