  • Ah yes, another maga apologist. Hopefully eventually people like you will realise that this world is never going to get better while you play in the ball pit eith all the other kids. If republicans dont want to act like adults, then dont treat them like adults. Remove their agency. Ridicule them. Publically shame them every chance you get. The only chance we have of ever fixing this country is to shame the right so completely that we leave it as part of our culture that we dont stand for this bullshit.

    You say “your body, my choice” and as far as im concerned you are no longer a human capable of autonomy. You have just forfeited your human rights.

    Rattle enakes and coyotes are the only two of those i wouldnt be willing to handle wild. If you know what you are doing most animals make their body language pretty clear. And the vast majority of them want nothing to do with you unless they deem you as a non threat. As far as taking them home, i dont think you should take any animal home unless it clearly seems open to domestication. Ive handled scorpions locally that were super chill, i go out of my way to handle local jumping spiders if theyre willing to jump on me. Dogs are the only animal i see and my first instinct is fear and yet they dont require anything. I mean a lot of them are literally bred to kill shit, yet have less oversight than a squirrel.

    I have. Ive interacted with birds, insects, wild cats including the occasional bobcat, wild rodents, including squirrels, mice, rats, racoons, possums, armadillos, etc. I am very active with my local wildlife. And where I live, without a doubt, the second most dangerous thing here is pet dogs, only beaten out by other people. The dogs are so disproportionally dangerous that the third most dangerous thing here is drug overdose. I dont think i have ever heard of the wildlife fucking anyone up here. But two weeks ago my neighbor two houses down had to go get stitches due to being bitten by one of the other neighbors dogs after it got out. The dog got put down. This is i think the third time this has happened on my block this year. Different houses, different dogs each time. Dogs are a fucking menace to my neighborhood.






  • I wouldnt be presumptious enough to say we, but I would really prefer the war not escalate further. Im all in for ukraine, and definitely fuck east-ukraine, but I don’t want American troops deployed in ukraine outside of advisory and training positions. I dont have great jusitifcations as to why, politics are hard, but I don’t feel its the US’ job to directly police the rest of the world, so Id prefer us to not directly combat other countries unless they’ve directly attacked us.

    History certainly has a role to play here, which sucks because its always been my worst subject, but an eye for an eye seems to be at odds with peace which is obviously ideal. That is why I said my justifications arent great. It doesnt help that I do support foreign benevolent intervention, but not directly through force. And, as always, defining ‘benevolent’ in terms of an authoritarian regime engaging in foreign intervention of any kind is… difficult.

    Edit: i forgot to mention: what we should be doing is allowing ukraine use of any non-warcrime western version of any weapon that east-ukraine is confirmed to use against them. We should also be quietly investing massive amounts of cyber resources into disabling russias nuclear launch systems and crippling putins stranglehold on their government by fucking with his finances specifically.


  • Nicky Jam is taking back his endorsement of Donald Trump. On Wednesday, the Puerto Rican singer — who endorsed the former president at a rally last month — shared a video on his Instagram revealing that he “renounces” his support for Trump, citing Tony Hinchcliffe’s recent “floating island of garbage” joke at a Trump event.

    “The reason why I supported Donald Trump is because I thought he’d be the best option for the U.S. economy where so many Latinos live, including me. Immigrants are suffering because of the economy,” he said in his video. “Since he’s a businessman, I thought he’d be the best movement.”

    “I never in my life thought a month later a comedian would criticize my country and speak poorly of my country so for that reason, I renounce any support of Donald Trump, and I will throw myself to the sideline of anything political,” he added. “Puerto Rico deserves respect.” Popular on Rolling Stone

    Nicky Jam’s post comes just days after Bad Bunny, Ricky Martin, Luis Fonsi, and Jennifer Lopez were among the artists of Puerto Rican descent who reshared posts from Vice President Kamala Harris the same day Hinchcliffe made his joke about Puerto Rico. (Jam was one of three Puerto Rican reggaetoneros, including Anuel AA and Justin Quiles, to support Trump.)

    When Jam joined Trump onstage in Las Vegas last month, the former president misgendered him and seemed to have no idea who he was.

    “Do you know Nicky? She’s hot. Where’s Nicky?” Trump said from the stage. “Oh, look, I’m glad he came up.” Once Jam took the stage, the Puerto Rican singer made a short speech, telling the crowd: “People that come from where I come from, they don’t meet the president. So I’m lucky. We need you. We need you back, right? We need you to be the president.”

    Jam’s Trump endorsement of Trump drew intense backlash, including from Mexican band Maná, who pulled their collaboration with him from streaming services, with the band’s frontman Fher Olvera writing, “Maná doesn’t work with racists.” Trending Stories

    Following Jam’s retraction, Olvera commended Jam’s decision to walk back the endorsement in a statement to Rolling Stone: “It’s never too late to change your mind. There’s still time to do the right thing. This is about exercising our Latino power. Go out and vote for our rights.”

    Tomorrow, Maná will join Vice President Harris during a rally in Las Vegas, where Jennifer Lopez will also speak. Although Puerto Rico can’t help elect the president, there are thousands of Puerto Rican voters in Pennsylvania, one of the pivotal battleground states in the 2024 election.







  • Its not a building persay, its based on fae lore iirc. There are a bunch of fucky rules, and it largely depends on their interpretation of what you say. If you say, “you may enter” that may mean that they can enter the entrance youre referring to. Or, it could refer to any property you own such as a car or rv. But if you dont have say over who can enter the property, you cant pet them enter either
