Didn’t Biden call the dude and enemy of the state on a few occasions?
Impeachment… Colluding with enemies of the state…
I’m being facetious of course, I’d rather they break the tradition of trying to impeach every president on their way out the door, but still, how you gonna have a meeting with someone you yourself called an enemy of the state?
There were others who changed sports as well… Fosbury didn’t cause the Olympic committee to implement any bans, which is to say that others arguably attempted much larger changes…
He simply tried something way the hell off the beaten path and it caused people to think differently about how to go about doing their thing.
Jimi wasn’t even the only revolutionary influence in his time, you could argue chuck berry had more influence at the time, you could argue Charlie christian had more influence at sorta the same time, you could argue Zeppelin, Sabbath, the Beach boys…
Nobody came crashing into music from deep left field like Hendrix did though, just like nobody came into the Olympics from deep left field the way fosbury did (I’d argue for korbut, but nobody followed her lead due to pretty much everything she did getting banned).
I get what you mean and don’t disagree, but I did say I was speaking to a specific context ;)
Hendrix. Hendrix is the fosbury of music. Dude went off in his own direction in both technical and compositional terms, and a lot of people followed.
There’s solid points in the comments, but I feel like we’re talking about a single individual ignoring convention here, and there’s really only one answer in that context :)
The Victorian Fisheries Authority states the money for the program comes from the Recreational Fishing Licence Trust Fund, which is raised through fishing license fees.
Kinda makes it an investment of sorts…
Creeping Speedwell? Kinda looks like it to me.
Nobody’s that stupid, clearly this officer has been drunk on duty for a year, someone ought to arrest him for it…
When anyone asks for proof of his inticmxicarion, just tell em you got a feeling he’s high AF based on his behavior and that’s all the proof he apparently needs
There was a time when assuming what you see on the internet was what it appeared to be and not misleading in any way was considered foolish…
I guess I’m old
The symbol isn’t exclusive to Nazis, and the styling suggests it’s something else… Not saying it isn’t Nazis because I don’t know, but I feel it’s not a good assumption.
It pretty clearly was intended to imply it though, based on the lower photo, which is far less ambiguous.
Link wants me to download an app and that ain’t happening, is that Nazis, KKK, or something totally benign? What’s the context here?
How is this a property managers concern?
Complaints like this need to go to a court of law and get prosecuted by the law, not arbitrated by an apartment complex manager… For one, they aren’t even remotely qualified to adjudicate a damned thing, and for another, they have exactly zero authority to implement anything punitive or legally binding.
Take this shit to court, get a restraining order, and have the court mandate that the shitbird can’t live in the same complex as the victims. That’s the right answer. Expecting an apartment manager to adjudicate and implement punitive measures for this or anything else is absurd… Landlords don’t need this sort of authority and I can’t imagine why anyone would ever want them to have it. They have quite enough power already…
Wildly untenable concept in modern society…
I’m sure it would work great in a video game or something, but In the real world, this shit goes crony AF guaranteed.
We don’t measure aptitude or ability in our society, we absolutely suck at it. A person’s ability is measured by what pedigree they purchased at degrees R us, or worse, by how articulate and verbose they were when typing a resume. Occasionally, ability is measured by how well someone likes a person even…
Competence is valued in a very select few enterprises. Trades, IT, and at higher echelons, math nerds… That’s about it…
A punitive assessment for the emotional damage from deaths and destruction of personal property on a grand scale, including the environment the damaged parties live in, is entirely appropriate.
Levying it under that pretense, but putting it in a discretionary fund under purview of government is essentially a 100% tax on the damages done to the victims.
Claiming it will be used to benefit those victims is a whitewash… It never goes to the victims unless it’s awarded to them.
There’s absolutely nothing wrong with the punitive assessment, my objection is purely to the recipient.
Or maybe give it to the people who were actually affected by it? The ones in who’s names the judgement was made?
It literally says it’s a punitive assessment for emotional damages… I don’t think the government got its feelings hurt…
the money, which will be adjusted for inflation since 2015, will be put into a state fund and used for projects and initiatives in the area impacted by the dam collapse.
Lol… That won’t get abused at all.
Nobody wants to hear it though…
Colonization, slavery, even the Nazis. All of it was able to occur because people werent thinking about possible outcomes. Statues of colonizers and confederates are a tangible reminder that might help keep the understanding of possible outcomes in public consciousness, and maybe down the road that remembrance precludes a repeat.
It’s specifically why Auschwitz, the site of one of the most horrific outcomes, stands intact to this day.
Personally, I think the next great incident of dehumanizing and persecution is very likely to be perpetrated by a very liberal mentality, in the name of trying to do good. You see signs of it every day. Some of the labels applied to me in other comments are indicative of it, and I said absolutely nothing In support of the shit I was labelled as. I’m a racist, I’m a colonizer, etc… said no such thing, but there wasn’t any shortage of hostility and downvotes… It’s a dangerous mentality.
Gotta erase all the history so nobody gets offended… I’m sure there won’t be any “doomed to repeat” in anyone’s future or anything…
I got a little jeep renegade that runs me like 350 a month…
First time I put gas in it and realized it had a 12 gallon tank, I was all like “OMG, why?!?”. Then I drove 300 miles before the light came on and It made perfect sense :)
Full tank doesn’t even get halfway to the $100 mark where you gotta reset the pump to fill it the rest of the way, ya know?
500 a month could treat you a lot better at the gas pump.
Gotta have more real estate for factory lights… Starting to see trucks with eight lights on the front going down down the road.
The ironic part is that the high beams usually disable all the aux lights, so if you see a newer truck with only two lights, it’s probably got the high beams on, and if they turn it back to low beams to be “courteous”, it turns on all the others and ends up being worse than if they’d just left the fucking high beams on.
I don’t really give a shit about the penile compensation aspect of “muh bigguh truck”, but fuck your wall of lights…

I think that’s a little too advanced for Biden, but it wouldn’t surprise me that hear a staffer suggested exactly that… Don’t think much of Biden, but the current white house is doing damned well IMHO.
I do sincerely hope trump opts out. None of his fan base is going to be affected in the slightest either way, because cult, but trump will think he’s god gift for participating, and his head is already way too fucking big.
