I’ve had people give me so much shit for how bad I said my dislocated shoulder was pain wise so hearing a couple other people echo that experience is vindicating.

I first dislocated it at an ice hockey tournament, got it put back in and played the rest of the tournament.

Those are rookie numbers, gotta pump those numbers up!

Civilian casualties (Afghan):

1. 1,000,000 dead[28]
2. 1,500,000 dead[29]
3. 2,000,000 dead[30]

If I need to explain to you that two completely unrelated acts can be judged differently you might want to head back to pre-school, which is where most humans generally learn these sort of lessons.

Duelling was rarely to the death, and between consenting individuals whom were both armed.

Seems odd to draw a comparison between that and unarmed children getting murdered by family members.

I’ve heard they’re to die for.

If they taste like almonds that’s just the cyanide.

That’s not how it went down but why let facts get in the way of a good story?

I don’t see a problem with the game

It’s an expansion project. I guess that’s one way to tell me you can’t read.

I would put good money on them being rural properties with historically low value, given this is all over an expansion project.

But what’s still clear is that you have zero understanding of wealth.

Having an expensive home doesn’t mean you’re rich.

You could have a mortgage on it, could have bought it when it was cheaper, which itself can be a problem with taxes and rates, or inherited it.

People can find themselves locked into an expensive property, or are in a position where it would be stupid to sell.

Yet again people on Lemmy demonstrate that they don’t comprehend wealth in the slightest.

None of these homes are outrageous for a skilled tradesmen to own. If you track wages and inflation this is what middle class looked like in the 70’s.

The rich occupy a completely different economic strata to these home owners. You have zero clue.

The Brits need to make like the French and lop heads off until they have something resembling a functional democracy.

Their cookies notice is absolutely fucked. Morons.

Yes because that’s how it works legally.

You seem to have some issue comprehending this.

You seem very fixated on ICE as a talking point.

I don’t particularly care what ICE agents are doing as I’m not from the USA and have no desire to go there.

You seem to think innocent until proven guilty is some sort of belief in factual innocence, which it isn’t. It’s the withholding of judgment until due process is performed.

Like I said. Innocent until proven guilty.

I doubt you can make a convincing argument against the presumption of innocence as it underpins the best legal systems in the world but give it a shot if you want.

Innocent until proven guilty.

A revolutionary, a terrorist and an innocent man walk into a bar… stop me if you’ve heard this one before.

Dwarf Fortress.

It would never come to piracy because the US would initiate regime changes, flatten militaries if they refuse to coup their governments and take the oil fields.

The whole thing is like some child considered oil supplies for the first time and believes there aren’t plans in place.

Hint: every developed nation has strategic oil reserves and is ready to go to war if supply is cut.
