More/less cis man, 50s.🏴☠️Maybe SFW, Caveat Emptor. Maximum Freedom til someone ruins it for everyone. Mean people suck. Jesus was a socialist. I don't reply.

@SeaDeara@FLSenateDems Sōto Zen here. Questions:
1. Since when do Buddhists worship Ganesh? Any deities?
2. Depictions of the Buddha aren't religious symbols. They wouldn't object. They'd charge for advertising space. Put him on bus wraps.
3. I always say, Buddhism sells itself. Meditate on the bus!
@PASTITSPRIME@SteveLovesAmmo Thanks. I admit it. I have a BAD, morbid, gallows sense of humor. I watched this expecting to laugh.
It's not funny.
Bozos who leave "cry about it" replies to ANY hint of empathy?
Remember who set the example when you have a coronary & everyone does YouTube instead of CPR.
@QueenDearria95@GeauxGabrielle May you live in interesting times.
May you attract the attention of powerful men in high places.
May you receive all that you wish for.
@jason_meister@AdamKinzinger I'm clear as a bell on this one, thanks anyway.
He's batshit.
You're delusional.
You're a delusional member of a cult with a batshit "leader".
I know who Mr. Kinzinger is. His opinions are relevant.
I don't know who you are. Nobody cares about your sparrowfart twaddlings.
@JR4484@ABC Illegal aliens from Alpha Centauri?
Oh you mean human beings who lack a piece of paper to be on part of their native planet.
Weird. I can't see any magic lines to stop human beings from fleeing death. Show me this "border" you talk about - without a pen.
Think OUTSIDE the BOX.
Forget Newsom & California tourists! You don't know what TIME it is dolt.
We aren't talking sales of mouse ears & cotton candy taking a hit! We're talking about MONEY.
I know friends of friends in the Vancouver area who own several BIG vacation properties in Arizona, Colorado, and Nevada.
We're talking small RANCH raising organic beef. We're talking 200 yards of TAHOE LAKEFRONT. We're talking cabin on 40 acres plus season passes to 3 ski areas for a family of EIGHT. We're talking family of eight eating out at EVERY 4+ star place in Vail and Aspen.
They rent these out in the off season.
This isn't "tourism". This is MONEY.
They are not coming back.
They aren't coming because an orangutan in a bad suit is threatening to ANNEX THEIR FUCKING COUNTRY.
Canada has declared the United States a hostile nation.
They will never come here again. One of my friends knows a dozen retired, well-to-do couples who have bagged trips to Arizona, Florida, Georgia, ANYWHERE in the US.
They're dumping $80mil properties at fire sale prices because there are no buyers.
They're buying land in Europe and Australia.
They are voting with their dollars.
Billions of them. That we call "tourist dollars".
As they say in Vancouver, smarten up!
@Frankmanfredx@JessPected@_nomadic_soul You can't afford the APPLICATION FEE to rent space in these women's heads.
A really nice dinner at a non-chain place, decent bottle of wine, couple hours of scintillating conversation about politics of the day?
Rents enough space to recall your name.
Out of your league, kid.
@KristaMarw23564@PriyamvadaGopal Toots, I went to the USSR in the mid-80s at a similar age and with somewhat more specific plans but "Tue - bum around Leningrad" kinda stuff too.
If I could go back in time and tell this story to the AK-47-toting scary-ass dudes at Moscow passport control?
They'd be stunned.
@hatemetax@krassenstein Gotcha making dire allegations with no evidence to back them up.
Gotcha journalism is great when it exposes lying assholes as lying assholes.
But... but... the police report proves it!
Because no police report has EVER contained lies or inaccuracies. They're always 100% true.
@almcb25@krassenstein@hatemetax There are no "illegals" here or anywhere else.
There are *human beings* who may be here without legal permission to remain.
But *people* have *human rights*. One of them is due process under the law.
No human is "Illegal". Casual use of dehumanizing language is DISGUSTING.
@Recursivelies@ABC LAWLESSNESS?!
Takes a HELL of a lot of gall to say that this blatantly criminal administration's hateful, racist, vengeful policies are efforts to strengthen rule of law in Washington.
But UNLAWFUL deportations to Central American gulags are OK?
Your hypocrisy is BOTTOMLESS.
@mchmr96@krassenstein Are you going to be kissing the divorced lady next door while your wife is at bridge club Wednesday night?
What if he is? If he has a boyfriend, I hope it's a good relationship and involves kissing, huh?
And you need to learn the fine art of minding your own goddamned business.
@PolisKc@ABC Try, "It's amazing how warped by RACISM they WERE".
Even more amazing just HOW quickly white Christian males are becoming a loud, cranky, but ultimately irrelevant sparrowfart of a minority.
Earthquake? That was just the Arc of the Universe bending a bit more towards justice.
@hatemetax@krassenstein "Jihadist drug lords".
"A terrorist is a terrorist".
People who think garbage thoughts like this are either incredibly stupid, deliberately trolling, or batshit.
Politicians who ACT on garbage thoughts like this shouldn't exist. People shouldn't be dumb enough to elect them.
