I really wish more people understood the paradox of tolerance.

Dude for real. A cheap bidet attachment for your toilet is the way to go.

First off, a bidet is better than toilet paper. I've been using it for years, and it cleans you 100%. I use basically 1 square of TP to dry myself after, and it's always completely clean. If you had a bird shit on your arm would you just wipe it off with paper and call it a day?

I laughed at all my friends who made fun of me for getting one on all my toilets after the great TP shortage of 2021, and a few of them ended up switching over.

For the apocalypse I have a camping toilet with a foot operated bidet. I mean I already use it when car camping, and I have a hand bidet for backpacking.

Solar panels are also in play. I also bought a freeze dryer and have about 5 deers worth of freeze dried jerky, and buy and freeze dry on sale fruit and veggies pretty regularly. I try to maintain around a 1-2 year supply of on hand food. A few steel plates, ar-15 pistol, and enough ammo to hold off the upper floor for quite a while too, but that's another conversation. I'm as ready to go as I can though, let's do this.

We don't need anything aside from the word, and you are right about the Israelis.

But you can go fuck yourself for using divisive language like 'libtard'. One, how are we supposed to work with you or even talk to you when you use such a childish and insulting term? And two, it's not even accurate. Conservatives consistently prove they're the idiots.

Let's just take one example. The economy. Every Democrat in the last 100 years has improved the economy, and every Republican has harmed it. It's because Democrats invest in people through empowering unions and raising minimum wages. Trickle down economics has been proven to not work for almost 60 years now and conservatives still push that bullshit.

It's like that on every issue. You're just wrong.

You're talking about Gaza or Tel Aviv? I've been to Gaza man, 95% of them didn't have clean water in 2014 and that number didn't change up until today. Gaza itself was a hellhole.

The resorts and stuff you see are on Jewish territory. They've destroyed anything nice Palestinians have.

Ideally we wouldn't sacrifice our ideals of freedom for money. This is America though and we're all capitalist whores first and foremost though.

I see we conveniently are just not going to talk about how the Jew-Nazis are absolutely using this as an excuse to maximize collateral damage to the civilian populace of their enclose open air concentration camp of a city. However you want to justify the genocide this is, feel free, but the world is watching, and sympathy for what the Jews went through during the Holocaust is wearing thin since they've been essentially running their own genocide for the better part of a century.

Which is encouraging. It's been a relatively silent genocide for decades, and while it's good to see people waking up, it's almost too late. Kinda like climate change.

Only under an incredibly convoluted and stupidly managed medical program run by public officials who publicly stated they didn't want it.

I'm glad cause the "Ohio 8th" which was 2.8g instead of the 3.5g, because it was 1/10th and was the standard for a "day" of consumption will finally die. As will the stupid an convoluted "days" system, limits to purity of product, so no more limiting strains to below 30% or dabs below 80% purity. No more $200 annual fee for medical cards. No more limits to business licenses so more dispensaries, more production centers, more competition. It also adds the right for a person to grow up to six plants. And to commemorate that I've got a home hydroponic system from Vevor and Mars Hydro on the way, so I'm finally free to grow my own.

The lower prices and less restrictions will finally lead us to recapturing almost $250mil per year in tax $ to Michigan as well. My heart goes out to all the dispensaries in Michigan that are about to close, but damnit that's our tax $.

This 100% ends the BS interference DeWine and the R's have been putting on us. I look forward to the next 30 days and beyond as all this is established. The law goes into effect 12/7.

See for me it'd just be the richest 1% of people in the world.

Same. I adopted a google account a long time ago, but I've finally hit my limit on what they've been doing with youtube and everything. Free and open source alternatives are the way to go, it may take a while to catch on or may never fully, but who cares. Switching to linux recently was the best thing I've ever done.

No, you missed me. Richest 1% in the world. Which would include dictators.

Almost as bad as pursuing Ethnic Bioweapons research in the late 90s. As in designing diseases to wipe out people of specific ethnicity.

Desperately poor people let it happen, and in this day and age have to let it happen. Meanwhile corpo fucking greed will take on anyone willing to work the shit wages those jobs offer.

I'm drawing some very obvious parallels in how they were treated and how they treat the Palestinians.

Violent anarchists are Libertarians, whom literally state their mission is to remove all government limitations at all costs.

How Libertarians avoid the anarchist label is beyond me. They're like weird corporate anarchists, compared to the actual anarchy movement.

Progressives are people who value the freedom of religion for all people, the freedom to be who you truly are, even if that's the opposite gender you were born as, and the advancement of human rights on topics concerning body autonomy and well anything humans rights related. We also tend to firmly believe in addressing income inequality, poverty, availability of medical benefits to everyone as a human right, and an end to monopolies and corporate malfeasance.

I think a lot of conservatives try to paint Progressives as anarchists because we riot. But they ignore the literal mission statements of the right wing which is that smaller government is better and that people should run their lives completely freely. THAT is anarchy my friend. And what that gets us is a dying planet full of pollution with infinitely rising cost of living and slavery to corporations, and we're dangerously close to that now. You'd better hope like hell Progressives win this fight, because everything you enjoy, everything that's good in your life, is a result of Progressive policy. Or are you actually going to sit here and argue policies like Reaganomics are a good thing despite almost 60 years of data to the contrary?

Nah, I'm fine offing upper middle class considering their Republican voting trend.

The problem with your supposition is that the supply chain recovered and everyone got their toilet paper eventually. In the coming collapse, there's no toilet paper again ever.

You can do what I did. Move to a geologically stable area, make a fortress, not a house, and get solar panels and your own cistern for water. A pro grade freeze dryer so you can build up a food supply. And enough guns and bullets to hold what's yours. Oh and bidets on all your toilets, no toilet paper ever again, plus your pooper is considerably cleaner. Which as a bonus is wonderful for the environment as it cuts down on dead trees.

They chose for religious reasons to slowly invade and genocide a people in an area that was extremely hostile to them.

Historically Jewish people have been given land in Spain and Italy to found their own nation. Both times they sold it and invaded Israel in history.

I have zero sympathy for them, because historically, they've been the invading aggressors to the region because they feel they have some sort of religious right to it, and since I'm anti-theist and believe religion is the root of all evil seeing both sides die in this conflict is kind of desirable to me.

Thank you! I lived in Michigan for a few years quite some time back, and grew up there while I lived there. Never have in Ohio yet, but it's like riding a bike lol. It really is different when you do it yourself.

If you do get a press make sure to do it immediately after harvest or freeze a bunch of nugs before you cure them! The yields will wildly differ and the flavor profile of the terps is much better.

The Quaran, Torah, and Bible all have passages on killing atheists.

After what I went through at the hands of my ultra religious parents, at the hands of the Catholic church I went to, and finally at the hands of the conversion therapy religious camp I was imprisoned in, I can tell you right now I have absolutely zero capacity for any compassion for any believer what so ever.

If I could press a button and kill them all I'd do it in a heartbeat. No believer deserves even the tiniest iota of your sympathy or compassion. I promise you one atheist to another, they feel the same way about you.

It literally says it's good to kill atheists in their holy book, regardless of which abrahamic religion you choose. And while, yes, Christians, Muslims, and Jews can pick and choose what they follow, but in the case of Muslims, clearly you have to see the threat. If you don't recognize the potential, or hear how they demonize atheists, I really can't help you. You can allow yourself to be lulled into a false sense of security by some of them that pretend to be better, but I won't.

...you mean at the military checkpoints where Palestinians routinely disappear? How about the fact that Israel conducts human medical experiments on prisoners. Or the systematic rape of Palestinian women. How about the systematic attacks on Palestinian infrastructure that leaves 95% of Gaza without access to clean water. And that was before this current mess.

Grow the fuck up and open your eyes. Israelis are straight up evil.

How does that track?

Those kids have zero chance of growing up as anything other than the religion they're raised in under even normal circumstances.

The one good thing out of all of this, is at the end of the day there's that many less believers in the world.

See, I can't separate the FACT that their religion calls for our death in their 'holy and perfect word from god' called the bible and they follow it still despite that. Their religion also justifies misogyny, slavery, and a myriad of completely immoral things.

They "elected" Hamas. In an election that was never certified, had more votes total than people living there and there hasn't been an election since.

But even if they legit did vote for Hamas I wouldn't blame them. Killing Israelis after all they've done is just.

Just watch lol.

The problem is the US is getting dragged into that, and, speaking as someone who knows something about the subject, Iran almost certainly has a few nukes smuggled within US borders. The CIA has recovered quite a few soviet era nukes that were smuggled into the US, Vice did a decent job showing how black market nukes are in the US.

...because the Zionist Jew-Nazis of Israel have absolutely zero respect for any defined borders. They've defied the ones set up in 1938, 1947, and again in the 60s when the UN stepped in again. You can look at the progression maps over time, that 100% is the Jew-Nazis violating repeatedly the treaties set.

You have no idea the temptation I have to do just that. A satellite connection and a remote job for income and I'd be good. A family member is up in Alaska already, he's got a plot of land with a natural gas deposit that wasn't large enough or near enough to a populated area for the US gov to care about. So they've got it tapped and have a pretty ideal setup. They bought my grandfather's tractor a while ago an old restored 1912 John Deere.

I do enjoy the comforts of living near everything. I'm not sure I could give up having 100s of restaurants to choose from and a dozen or more grocery stores in a 10 mile radius. Or the specialty delis, high speed gigabit, and other comforts of civilization.

I'm going to laugh and laugh when the collective Muslim world grinds Israel to the dust one day. I'll probably even get to see it in my lifetime.

If your stream is at the max setting that's comfortable and you move around a bit and make sure to get the whole area I've got nothing for you other than a recommendation to up the fiber in your diet.

I did get a nicer one that can just about peel the skin off on the highest setting, but even the lower quality one I have on the main bathroom downstairs gets me completely clean. I do tend to use it longer than 30 seconds, I'm pretty thorough about the rinse process.

This is like Holocaust denial in the 21st century. Those that refuse to see what the Jew-Nazis are doing.

Israel is their 'promised land'. It is more about religion than people would like to admit.

And while I agree there are a fair amount of Jewish people that are essentially like lapsed Catholics and Christians that don't buy the full text word of the Bible/Torah, it is essentially wrong to argue that it is NOT a part of their religion when it absolutely IS.

No, I'm normal. I'm also not a removed, although I am black.

Let's start calling them what they are. The Jew-Nazis.
