120 high capacity strips. 5/8 inch caliber chisel points. steel construction and 100-sheet penetration. I'm dual-wielding these bad boys and can output over 75 staples a minute.

I'm fucking serious about this.

I just finished reading his Stalin book so maybe I'll read that one soon.

I don't want to be mean, but fascism has a class component that overides the race/idpol component.

Found it. It was Napu Boychuk an Inuit-Canadian boy who was a ballerina dancer who become quadrapelegic, I think. Edit: he got use of his arms partially and legs would move voluntarily at least, no idea where he is now. Hopefully he continues to progress with his movement and stuff and get the best care.

A number of factors weighed on their minds. The distance would prove challenging, and there was an obvious language barrier, although Boychuk had picked up some Spanish through dance. What mattered most, however, was ensuring Boychuk would receive the best care possible.

The children’s mother died of cancer in 2003, after having spent time in four or five different Toronto hospitals. Nothing was wrong with the doctors or nurses, Tuutalik said. The hospitals were just too big.

“When my mother was there, she was just a number. Not a human being, not a person, not a woman with cancer,” she said.

Cira Garcia hospital in Havana, in contrast, is small and intimate. The staff is made up of highly professional, well-meaning people. Tuutalik describes them as “angelic,” and in an interview with the CBC, Dan Boychuk said the level of care in Cuba is “second to none in the world.”

“He would never get his kind of care in Toronto,” he and Tuutalik wrote in Facebook post on Jan. 3.

Dan explained further in an email: “The Cuban health care system leads in medical care generally and there are many who come from Canada and other countries to have surgery, not only for spinal problems but a vast array of medical conditions.”

-bourgeois Canadian newspaper that's trying really hard to thread the needle between "socialized healthcare bad, but Canada better than Cuba"

I've heard someone on here or left-twittersphere say reactionaries view the law as a constraining of others but a freeing of themselves, which overlaps with your quote. I definitely think there's something to it.

RG Veda had some really good music in its OST, although I don't think it played much of it during the actual OVA. I'd have to rewatch.

@Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net, After a week of using that anti-dust spray I did a round two this weekend and there was barely any dust. I think most of the dust that was there was due to me not swapping cloths enough during my first clean last week. So I think I can confirm that it works pretty well. Only thing I would change would be adding like at least 1-2 teaspoons of some kinda' scent/oil to override the white vinegar smell that it'll have for a couple hours.

My room's nicely dust-free for a week+ when I'd sometimes dust on like a Friday afternoon and notice things gettin' dusty again on Monday.

There is no inherently superior number of sides for a shape to have. Be it 4 or 6 or even (shudders) 8.

I shouldn't have tried to start a 6-sided shape war. I will not keep asking the admin for a squarebear sister site for rectanglers such as myself. I will no longer refer to moderators as "hex maniacs, and not the cute kind". All sides are valid. I will not sign my posts with "get rect".

I'm sorry.

Good thing I was recording it.

This town racial-profiles and the cops wouldn't let me leave. The lady at the Inn wouldn't let me get a room, I saw someone with the same name as me on the sign-in sheet so I tried to lie my way into a room, but she wasn't fooled. I ended up hanging out with some kids who thought we were the same age. Nothing weird happened and there are absolutely zero power dynamic issues here. They told me about a secret passage if I played tag with them, which took hours. The passage didn't lead out of the town, but it did lead to this old guy's telescope and he told me about the Gamer Kid who's been terrorizing the town with various hamas-antifa-style intimidation tactics and violence. He might have killed some royal-relative dude on that forest path but I was too busy chasing after him to notice.

Also I hear coughs everywhere I sometimes asked people about it but they'd change the subject or sometimes even out-right deny that they coughed or that there was any problem.

Ended up finally getting out of town and heading south to some disgusting swamp that I think might be literally toxic. I thought maybe I went so far south to like Louisiana or something, but they just call it the Southern Swamp here or something. There was some kinda' tourist trap location on the edge of the swamp and some fellow 'scrubs' like me deep inside the swamp. Anyway, this place sucks ass too. Seems to be an actual authoritarian hermit kingdom. But it had a missing princess, so this was a chance to get a princess GF. Met a giant fucking owl that could talk and he taught me a song that he said would help me, although to be honest it kinda' sucked. Eventually found a hidden temple with the princess inside and a giant native guy who I couldn't tell if I should take his side or not. He kept saying the same like 3 short sentences over and over and kept attacking me and the bugs were so bad in there. So I killed him and he in the commotion I could tell if he turned into a mask or maybe he ran away and left the mask there but I got it and met a giant (like at least 6' 1") who said he'd help me combat the masked Gamer Kid. Took the little princess back and everyone was happy and at least the swamp healed.

Anyway, don't buy a Switch 2 in 2 days.

irping in distress. Bundled it in rags and left 'em with a mound of nuts and seeds down in the forest inside a pile of old blocked wood that never got picked up. Also so my dad doesn't, like, starve it to death or something psychotically. I suspect its mother died already because on my way out of the garage I thought I heard something squeaking but had a cat freaking out in a cage to attend to.
