No one says "why are we glorifying the violence against Nazis" when talking about WWII. If one side is willing to use violence and the other side doesn't defend itself, the side who uses violence is going to write the history.

I'm not calling for violence, but I'm not condemning it either eh?The black Panthers used the threat of violence successfully to get police to stop harassing black folk. Stonewall used violence to fight against homophobes. If people are going to get hurt I'm tired of it being the marginalized.

Down below, she's actually not having a fun time. I gave her a bath yesterday and this morning she was soft and fluffy and her fur is greasy after a half hour here. But she's also putting her brave face on trying to be good.

I hate the guy, but honestly I think we get too precious about these buildings which keeps things stale.

That dog isn't weird enough though.

Whoops didn't look further back in your profile. People get anxious about other people's home builts but I think I would be more anxious in my own...

The most dangerous time in a home built is the first 50 hours, I'm happy to let someone else figure out they crossed the aileron wires.

Literally my thought when I was putting this off.🤣 Get out of my brain.

I'm really happy I took the time though.

It made me feel good when I calculated that my Cherokee 140 had better gas mileage than an average SUV especially in the PNW where mountains make routes far less efficient/straight.

Did you build yours yourself?

For what it's worth, I was stressed about actually taking time to both write down my ideas and also document where I am on a bunch of half baked ideas and then I realized that since moving on I had already developed the skills to finish some very easily also what I wanted to do didn't feel nebulous.

I saw your profile and thought "oh another pilot developer" then saw that your flying my second place dream plane (#1 is the velocity).

I lived a 5 minute walk from the airport where Burt Rutan was testing these designs and saw them in the air and thought they looked so cool. They still look cool.

Drone show display, they have the largest regular drone show every weekend.

Also the city of Chengdu is where all the pandas are and the metro's hand holding things are shaped like pandas and everything is styled around pandas and so green.

😂 I'll just keep going if you let me.

Lol I just saw a skit where the guy comes into the store and asks ChatGPT what to ask the clerk and the clerk looks up the answer on his ChatGPT.

😅 dire times. Do you know of anything?

I love China, this is my third time. Great food, great vibes, people are so nice. Plus every city is so unique and special. All these photos and this video is Chongqing (biggest city on Earth by some metrics)

:( I got sun burned which is my least favourite thing. My autism thing is having sensitive skin so...

But it was fun before that. :)

Thanks, it's also just random photos. The whole city is awesome like this anywhere you go, it's not like some places where you have to go to the "Instagram area" the whole city is the Instagram area.

It doesn't even make sense? They voted for Trump 1. Biden beat him once but it was because of a mobilized base not seeking the centre.

They can't have it both ways that "Stein cost us the election" and "we need to all have a fetterman stroke and become right wing to win elections"

In Oakland the Black Panthers just showed up with guns when police were harassing black folk. The police started backing off.

In fact, the Black Panthers are the reason the 2nd amendment is interpreted this way today. Before that it was never this "anyone should have any gun" right it is now.

The problem with this is it's not an illegal order until it's deemed an illegal order and until then you will face consequences for refusing.

They should still refuse and they should have never joined in the first place. It's not like America is a beacon of doing the right thing.

I was told that was what the second amendment is for, but if it's not going to be used now then there's literally no point in keeping it.
