And think of me when everything you wanted starts to end.

Disgusting. These executives shouldn't be able to collect any bonus once they have a bankruptcy filing. This is about as ugly as capitalism gets.

This is how the playbook for Fascism works.

if there’s a Nazi at the table and 10 other people sitting there talking to him, you got a table with 11 Nazis.

See most places are bad but America should be better. It presents itself as the better. It does not always live up to that better and so those people who want us to be better keep reminding us we have a lot of work to do. I can tell you personally how horrible America can be but I don't think you want to hear that from a Lakota.

I think your asking the right question but it's hard to articulate because you don't understand the right question to ask.

Say you use google email and google apps to schedule appointments. The information is put into a database and all sorts of data points are collected. The information can be made into a profile and then sold.

If you use an app to record your diet. That could start to show medical information if you're able to put it with the google information and so on.

This is by no means how it's done but something to help you understand what you should be asking.

Porque no los dos?

Text data on a compressed drive is so small. You have a modern server and accessing text files in a compressed drive is not noticeable performance hit. The compression ratio is massive for text and markup language files

I worked at a grocery store and the old timer who trained me in the produce section said that all you needed to find the best watermelon was learn how to give it a slap and if it sounds like a basketball that's a good watermelon. Learning the slap takes some practice but when you do it right, you'll know.

Just because you can doesn't mean you should....

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is pretty amazing to look at

I have a few subs that I keep subscribed to but it is only a small handful. Basically I am done with that site. One or two refreshs and maybe a post. If I don't find the right communities here, I will just break down and create them.

Today is a good day to die

This is meaningful to me because it's a place I must try and be in every day. Leave nothing for chance and understand that I can die at any moment so I must always be one step in front of it.

This is what the white men believe Crazy Horse would say in Lakota as a battle cry. It was probably more like "come on let's go" but it wasn't so much the words but the message behind them. It's a heavy mental mindset that you are ready to die today if that's what happens. It means you have lived with honor and respect. Your family knows your love for them. You have shown your ancestors respect so they will be waiting for you, welcoming you to the other world as a warrior coming home. This is a power place to be, especially if you have to face a life and death situation.

So this is the battle cry

Hokahey! Nake nula wauŋ welo!

Let's do this! I am ready for what comes!

It's too late for me... I've been fuckin up English for almost 50 years

Baseball is about tradition, it's core tenant. This is why people get upset about changing anything. So you're supposed to sing in the game, 7th inning between teams at bat, because it's been that way for so long nobody really remembers.

They probably all tried to be the loudest while looking around and taking notes on who isn't participating enough.

Fucking Fascism right there! Those Attorney Generals are unAmerican assholes. I hate the bullshit culture wars that Republicans put so much energy into. Imagine if they tried to actually use that energy to make this a better country for everyone.

you can select more then one!

The art of happiness boils down to this

Can I do something about this thing that upsets me?

*Yes? Then do it or make plans to reach a place where you're in power to do it *

No? Then do not spend your time being concerned over it.

Try to practice this when you find yourself the rat in a cage. I hope you can break that rusty cage, and run.

I don't speak to either of my parents. It's a hard thing. I find it causes me stress at times but those people are horrible and I prefer the random guilty thoughts then the emotional abuse both of them inflict on me.

Sometimes it's the better of choice that only has bad options.

My wife and my sisters. My wife's family is close so it helps. But it's not the same and I have mostly just accepted that I will always have this scar and it will never heal.

This is something I have been dealing with for 30 years and more. First with my father when I was in my early 20s and more recently my mother.

Always accept the winnings through an LLC and a lawyer. Don't tell your family or friends unless you can really trust them. Be kind and giving and you should be fine.

it happens at least once every hundred years, doesn't mean it won't happen sooner but it will happen again

Hummingbirds use spiderweb to make their nests. I don't think there's hummingbirds in Nepal but just a fun fact

I've laughed at this stupid picture a few times already. The simple things in life

I wish I could smell it. Fresh lavender smells like heaven

Proud warriors forced to change in order to survive. The Lakota and the Klingons would recognize each other as equals.

whats wrong with it? I've only just made it to the village on the first planet. The first boss fight was awesome.

plays pretty smooth so maybe they solved it or my hardware isnt affected

gotta make sure that boy is tough!

if we are talking 1950's futurism with gay being content and happy, count me in!

There Will be Blood....

99% of the time I just tap the letters but maybe once in a blue moon I swipe in something. I'm closing in on 50 so it's probably just me being old
