I've had far worst where I put the bandaid on myself and got back to work

Life gets difficult when a gesture that for centuries has meant "okay" or "very good" is suddenly seen by some to mean "bad" or "white supremacist." If there was a memo circulated to document the change, I didn't receive it.

Does thumbs down still mean "bad"? If so, but thumbs up no longer means "good," what's the new symbol for "good"?

The “OK” symbol meaning white supremacy is a troll operation by 4Chan. All the usual idiots you’d expect to fall for it fell for it.

The libs have been running wild with that one as established fact now

Good to see stuff like that.  I heard there a town in California that did something similar.

That puts it in context, but geez, get off your knees, white guilt morons.

Isn't being on your knees cultural appropriation?

I'd have thought it was sexual harassment.

Meantime, in interviews and posts on social media in recent days, current and former U.S. intelligence officials have expressed dismay at the similarity between events at home and the signs of decline or democratic regression they were trained to detect in other nations.
“This is what happens in countries before a collapse. It really does unnerve me,” said Gail Helt, a former CIA analyst.

From there it's basically Orange Man bad

Live updates: As protests push past curfews and troops descend, CIA veterans say U.S. similar to collapsing nations

[sumpnz]

It honestly wouldn't surprise me if we do collapse.  I hope not, just because the outcome is probably going to be even worse.

But as one friend said recently, "As an individual I can't control if the Boogaloo happens, when it happens or how it ends. But what I can control is how many Commies bodies I stack. "

It's internet nonsense, probably just sarcasm from 4chan. Don't fall for it.

Anyways, run on guns again. This is going to be a banner year for firearms sales.

We definitely have an easy point of reference for "why would anyone need an AK-14?"

Powerful: Protesters Spell Out 'Love' With Burning Homes And Businesses

What a powerful message! The protesters were also planning to burn the word "SOCIAL JUSTICE" into predominantly black parts of town but have sadly run out of buildings to burn.

TL;DR version: scumbag tries to blow up an ATM in Philly and Darwins himself in the process.

    Thank you for the laugh!  I needed it.

[MechAg94]

Do you think those ATM's will be repaired or just removed?  Wondering also how many of those small businesses and such will still be there 6 months from now. 

Maybe now is the time for Michelle Obama to complain about food deserts again.  I guess we now might have ATM deserts.

My guess is that they will be removed.

Buying an ATM will cost between $2,000 and $4,000 on average. Higher end ATM machines that are built into the wall are more expensive and can cost between $5,000 and $10,000. An optional cash loading service runs $40 to $60 per month.

My guess is that they will be removed.

That fits with the cashless society

Apparently I'm a racist white supremacist for saying character is more important than race.
