I’m a big fan of “fuck quitting, make them fire you” and collecting a paycheck while doing basically nothing until they actually do it themselves. I’m not making their job easier when they deserve to get fucked over.

English IS my first language and it still tripped me up. It’s an easy thing to swap, especially without much context.

I read it as “to break off” not “to temporarily interrupt”

demented rapist felon and a pathological liar.

It’s insane to me how little this narrows it down to someone who doesn’t already know who you mean.

Han solo didn’t “shoot first”, he was the only one who shot, period.

Greedo didn’t shoot the wall (and miss a 6ft target sitting 2ft away), that was added (poorly) many years later for a special edition.

They changed the movie because in the interim years, George Lucas was feeling like it made Han Solo look less “noble” and more scoundrel-like.

And I’ve seen people on lemmy going on about how it’s all the US’s fault because some reportclaimed us arms and supplies were discovered, but like…

You didn’t HAVE to kill thousands of people for what you still call a protest movement.

Whether protesters are backed by the west or not, the response to murder everyone at a protest is unquestionably wrong.

I’m sure their wallet appreciates your separation.

Wait until you hear about county and city laws.

Oh, so the US should have claimed Venezuela was US property, then they aren’t playing world police!

Random thought just popped into my head for no reason I can think of: if you know someone’s name, and the county they own property in, you can visit their county records (many even have publicly accessible websites) and find the exact plots of land tied to their name!

I managed to track down the former property owner of the place I live now to their new house in another state, since they intentionally hid a bunch of issues from the buyer before the sale that ended up costing nearly half the price of the house and the realtors decided to ignore me when I attempted to get in contact.

All I did was look up “[County I knew remembered they were moving to from overheard conversations during the buying process] county property records” and the rest was super straightforward.

Nor do you have dozens, to potentially thousands of people all willing to throw themselves into a hail of bullets to keep you out of jail.

I mean, I’m just assuming you don’t.

You’d leave in a fucking second if you could.

Not op, but happily. In a heartbeat. Wouldn’t even have time to finish the conversation if it were an option.

And yes, they absolutely can be vocally pissed that a privileged old white rich man and his privileged rich kids will get to continue living much better lives due to their riches that allowed them to leave.

It’s like people here WANT to be pissed off at everything.

Lol
