maine. 18 people in a bowling alley. just business as usual, sorry to say.
Damn, lack of headlines only in America. Where 18 people killed in a mass shooting doesn’t crack front page on any news network. Ick.
Latest polling for Biden is pretty dismal. Looks like a pretty bad for the Democrats as Trump is holding the popular vote as well. Not a majority, but the left base are spread out with other candidates.
Seems as though the ‘lesser of two evil’ arguments doesn’t resonate with the young generation when the lesser evil still pushes to fund a genocide.
Another note is the Biden campaign and the Democrats have a massive unspent war chest. Normally both parties are in full swing campaigning at this point and Biden is sitting it out.
Currently the most likely way to avoid another Trump presidency is if he dies of heart disease, because he’s not looking like he’ll be losing in a general election.

Does that even rate a headline any more?
Apparently not. If she’s referring to something that happened in the past few days nothing was on the major news cycles.
Top 3 in no particular order:
28 Days Later: Running zombies, scary and tense, and an amazing ending with heavy notes of social messaging.
The Unit: Most obscure pick, a pitcher/catcher try and survive. Really an every man zombie story. Effects and camera are low budget but writing and end were spot on.
Fido: Kitchy 50’s American dream community with the catch that it exists within a zombie apocalypse and zombies are controlled by collars to be domestic servants. And one lonely boy develops a friendship with his zombie. Think Lassi meets zombies

Your sentence structure is awful.

Where is that stat from? I'd bet more than 10% of stock is owned by institutions such as insurance companies and pension funds. I never understand folks who bash the stock market; if you have even a basic understanding of math its pretty easy to avoid losing your shirt. And if there was no stock market where would companies get the funds to grow and expand and therefore provide millions of jobs?
Oh, you mean so they can collectively lower the wages of all workers, create shittier products with less competition, avoid paying taxes, funnel money to politicians, and keep the minimum wage from raising for 2 decades? Fuck that would be awful if that went away.

The richest people on the planet can afford to hold during a crash, dummy. They actually buy up more when the price is low and get richer once the market corrects.
Look at what happened in 2020...
Wealth distribution? You really don't understand what the stock market is do you? Do you think a trillion dollars worth of devaluation will now be redistributed to the poor? lol explain yourself
You’re under the impression that the stocks crash and then it’s business as usual after a few months. It’s a failed economy that holds no base in the reality of company performance.
The stock market needs to go away. When I say it crashes, it should not come back.
Quote by Magical_felix
Hoping for the entire stock market to crash is so idiotic. Maybe you should look up who got rich and who got fucked over when the stock market collapsed in 1929.
Well, 90% of all stock is owned by the richest 10%. The other 10% is owned by the richest 50-90 percentile.
So I know who would get fucked now. Also I only bank with federally insured credit unions so my money is protected.
So, the rich will lose their shirts and the poor are relatively safe as those federal insurances cap out after about 200k per account. So the stock market crashing will most dramatically impact the richest people who’s entire fortune is kept in the tax have that is the stock market. And since it’s overvalued anyway we’ll succeed in wealth distribution pretty much immediately.

I'm kind of surprised that DJT stock is not being investigated already for stock fraud. The share price is completely untethered from reality. I'm very curious to see how much cash the doofus gets to pocket before the stock is delisted.
If we investigated every company who’s share price isn’t tethered to reality the entire stock market would collapse… so let’s do that!
Over 300 years of an unelected lifetime god kings appointed by the richest and most powerful. The system never worked, it’s just slightly more apparent now that the internet has made them more visible.

I write them into one of my stories here. They're never seen again.
Can I burrow your death note sometime?
On subject, I spent 2 years as an overnight hotel cook mostly by myself with a lot of time to think. Getting rid of a body was a common subject to contemplate. Long story short, I can get about 10 meals out of a human body and what’s left to dispose of would be to much of a mush to be identified as human. Easily disposed of in the garbage.
I saw a clip of a woman working out and she was doing an elbow plank and soon she started apologizing to her and saying past boyfriends saying ‘two minutes is a long time.’
Had me laughin’.

I don't have a problem with surge pricing either. Capitalism at it finest. I simply won't partake if I notice. My brother worked at an upscale steakhouse. A dropped frozen steak was fair game for hockey if the boss wasn't around. After which it was brushed off and cooked. Again perfectly safe. They cooked them fully frozen, so nothing noticing would stick to it, and cooking kills any bacteria it might pick up. I assume this is common when you have teenage boys working in the kitchen.
Upscale steakhouse + frozen steaks… 😐
I fully believe after some thorough senate grandstanding they’ll give Boeing a slew of government grants and the board of directors will give themselves a raise.
Pretty flowers in their sun dresses at the garden center to catch my interest. So why did he plant this seed of fantasy? Would his rugged hands tend my grounds with the same soft care offered to his cherry tomatoes?

So it’s OK to see the women’s pussies hanging out but the men have to cover their balls?
Men are people too and the wokies are trying to take away our sexuality.
Worry not, for you have none to take away.
From her trembling lips,
Her breath, hot and shaking,
Carnal moans stolen.
I’m not huge on fetishizing race. There’s preferences, and that’s fine. But there are lines that it becomes less about physical traits that appeal to you and more about stereotypes and objectifying a person. It shouldn’t mean a damn thing, but that’s not the reality we live in. Love who you love, want who you want. But make sure to never forget they are a person first, not a skin color.
Because I’ve been doing more sewing lately and this is cheaper than buying a dress form.

My theory as to why you never capitalize anything is because it requires two hands and it’s just physically too exhausting.
My theory is you’re not worth the effort.

I was a cute baby
Not what your momma said.
Most German love scenes. They seem like two angry weasels fighting to the death. Never hits romantic or titillating to me.
Anyone else like that solid American move of having our most popular sport played solely in America. All the teams are American. Then after the season is over we declare one of the teams world champs!
Less athletes, more mathletes! Am I right? Let’s celebrate some STEM elites!
Like picking out my least favorite kick in the balls because they all were absolutely terrible. I guess the red eye with a baby who was having an absolute miserable time and I ended up standing up with them on a harness and bouncing them in the bathroom. It was the only thing to quiet them and that lasted for something like 6 hours.
Would you support investing into train transport again?
