War Room Lounge v123: I will powerbomb you on legos and micro machines

Since you were the two I chatted about this with, appears at least in the House the bill that Pelosi introduced is close to passing:

I still don't think you're going to see it get out of the Senate though.

Yeah, I've dealt with the blue haired SJWs give me shit about being so pro 2A but I think most of American politics in general have become too black and white. I pretty much identify as libertarian socialist. (too much Latin revolutionary politics at a young age will do that to you lol) I've heard some dumb shit said about guns by liberals, but leftists in America need to start returning to their roots more.

Every man and woman should know their way around a rifle imo. It's just that most 2A people tend to wander into cartoonish behavior.

What's everyone eating tonight by the way? I stuffed some roasted poblanos with rice, queso fresco, and chorizo and I'm baking those then once they firm up smothering them in enchilada sauce and pepperjack. Going to be sexy.

Not sure food wise yet. Yesterday threw together some teriyaki chicken (sauce out of a bottle).

Agreed that people should know how to handle a firearm. I had a roommate at my last house that was VEHEMENTLY anti gun as in "I don't think even cops should have guns" type against it. I took her shooting twice and she went from hating the concept of firearm ownership to "I won't own one myself but let me know when you go shooting and I'll buy some ammo and tag along"

There are rumors that Trump is actually onboarding with it. And he's very capable of bullying the Senate into passing it.

It will be interesting to see this play out

It's such a plot twist too. Here we had a pres. who was champing at the bit to stupidly spend us into the ground during a strong economy, and yet circumstances come around that force us to pull out the blank check anyway. His trillion or so in unjustifiable revenue cuts is actually just subsumed by this whole thing. I'm not even worried about it anymore.

The last I saw said Trump was supportive of further direct payments to families but was potentially not on board with the maybe amount suggested, the student loan stuff, and likely the fact Pelosi has included the money would go to undocumented folks as well.

The part that scares me a tad is the talk that families could earn up to 6k. I get with having a family expenses go up but my roommate gets 6k? He'd likely STILL owe me $800 and then go buy like $6k worth of guns and ammo.

My famous garlic butter pork chops with green beans. And cauliflower mash because I’m going keto this month. Because I’m a fatty. Because of teh covid.

So, I have discovered the Kroeger store near me sells center cuts of ham steaks (like 1.5 lbs per)... I'm half tempted to get like 2-3 and grill them on the Traeger and use it with like pre-packed salads to make ghetto Cobb salads (also buy some of those already boiled hard boiled eggs).

Why pre-packaged salads and already boiled eggs? Cause I'm a lazy fuck.

What Trump didn't like was funding the post office.

You should just beat the shit out of your roommate and claim his property as your own.

Surprisingly, one thing Utah dominates Missouri in is meat in the supermarkets. Higher quality, cheaper, more of it. I guess they are near way more beef than we are, but it just feels wrong somehow, since this is the Midwest and Utah isn't.

 

[Fawlty]

Fuck, used to get very good NY strip 3-packs, about 2 lbs, for like $17. Try that here lol.

Why does he hate the Post Office?

I agree on the second but I'd rather not blow up one of the like... 4 friendships I have out here where the other 3 I only know because of him. I've learned well how to bite my tongue and just deal.

I just know that any requests for financial help going forward will be a "ha, no."

The "meat shortage" that has been talked about I have seen some of.

I've taken to buying flap meat almost weekly for the protein in my lunches. Why? I can get like 3-4 hunks of flank steak for 3-4 lunches for like... $8. The selection has gone down. Seeing a LOT of London Broil cuts for sale and stuff but the flank steaks and like New York strips seem to be gone a bit.

I got some nice boneless ribeye last week though for like $10 a steak. And they weren't small either.

He could probably sell the shitty kid to one of those Mormon tragedy families where the 19 year old housewife comes with a rotted womb. Lots of those around, and they're hungry for children to indoctrinate and plasticize.

Mormon tits are shaped like faucets.

I remember when we had our earthquake there's some golden statue on the Temple downtown that holds a trumpet and the trumpet fell out of their hand.

Bunch of people in the comments of the KSL newstory were FREAKING OUT and my brain was like:
"There's two reasons...

1.) You put a real fucking skinny trumpet thing at the top of a spire so simple physics it's going to sway more

2.) God, Odin, Allah, Yahweh DOES exist and they're punishing you all for following the teachings of a charlatan fraud douche canoe"

Is it cause of the pasties?

I'd think more because of the required flow.

 

[Falsedawn]

fuuuuuuuuck. Good luck to your grams, that's just fucking fucked.

Thanks man. I'm just super pissed off right now. They're playing Russian roulette with other people's families and it's just fucking irresponsible.

The size of families blows my mind till you find out the reason and then it just angers me.

There's a part of me that whenever I move out and get my own spot, in order to prevent missionaries from coming to my door find some pagan symbol and throw it on the door to keep them away.

This has definitely been a good time for paying down debts. Between the tax return and the COVID and the bonus hours/pay, I'm down to 4 figures total which is fantastic.

lol what is that? Debt for ants?

I don't think that every man or woman should feel the need to know how to operate a rifle, but I agree that American liberals are far too impulsive and reductive on gun control issues and tend to use it as a fulcrum for virtue signaling (like Hillary saying Sanders cared more about the NRA than dead children - oof!).

As a group, American communists/socialists are much, much more deferential to gun rights than liberals, even if not nearly as much so as conservatives. But I think that's distinct from being a gun rights absolutist or from making shitty constitutional arguments about the Second Amendment. To be sure, I don't "support" the Second Amendment insofar that the current prevailing interpretation of it is clearly ludicrous and based on the inventions of FedSoc charlatans.
