My college gave them away for free. The wellness center just had a big bowl of them outside the door. Grab what ever when you walked by. They only had them out during school hours when they had someone working the desk, so it wasnt really a concern that people would be poking holes or some shit in them.

The wellness center would even come to any organization and give a free “safe sex” talk if you wanted them to, and that came with its own goody bag with more than just condoms. It was awesome

When my daughter was 2, i taught her to say this. I thought it was hysterical. I was the only one

Theres a reason republicans always want to defund education. Theres a reason why there is a correlation between red states and blue states and their test scores. Theres a reason why universities/higher education has been branded “liberal brainwashing.”

Theyve been attacking education so that people can stay ignorant to their true motives

Have you ever read the unclassified annual threat assessment? There is an official report the intelligence comminity puts out every year detailing what other nations are doing around the world. And that’s just what theyre allowed to tell us.

Ive read it, and if you look at what they detail out for chinas militarzation moderniation plans, theres not many reasons theyre doing what theyre doing unless to compete with the USA. Not to mention, chinas going faster than what originally was thought, and theyre becoming less reliant on other nations to do it. Thats just 1 nation. The usa has stuck its nose in too many peoples business that if they stop the arms race, there could be a lot of nations coming knocking. Weve painted ourselves into a corner (or at least have the perception of it).

Edit: all that said, theres definitely ways to be more fiscally responsible with our military spending… just look at the f35 or the sentinel program

I bought lockheed martin call options after the way the steel markets rebounded

Edit: just checked volume on LMT. 2.4M today vs an average of 1.35M. Yeeeeeeah. Lot more buyers than usual today

Getting rid of a DEI initiative doesnt fix any of that though. We’d simply go back to the times of, “oh who’d she sleep with to get this job?”

Id argue the real sense of worry is by living a life style below your means. As someone who has had to live pay check to paycheck, but has been fortunate enough to have a substantial increase in salary, dont spend all your money. If you dont change your habits with new money, the worry will fade away.

You can stop keeping strict budgets on things and make them more vague. As long as savings account keeps going up, the worry fades

Thats why you need both the senate and the house. Impeachment means nothing if you dont have both chambers because you need the other to actually enforce the impeachment

For me, it wasnt even the education of college. It was being in the dorm and around ao many different people. Finally being around people different than me taught me so much so fast

Hes trying to get them to quit. Going on strike would actually help him achieve his goals by repalcing them with more loyalist

trying to fuck the country

No just the blue states who dont like him

Edit: keyword “trying.” Hes trying to fuck the blue states. yall down voting me into oblivion like trump doesnt have a clear vendetta against calfiornia. Yea, hes hurting the whole country as collateral damage, but lets not pretend that parts on purpose. Hes an idiot who has never understood the ramifications of his decisions. This orange turd see and opportunity to hurt california , and he takes it becuase its California, not because hes smart enough to understand

Edit 2: in this same thread is a Comment that says “hes just trying to destroy california” with clear upvotes. Has lemmy become the reddit hive mind already? Sheesh

These “conspiracy theories” at least have trend data to support them. Speak out against mega corp or the rich, die by suicide.

Theres not even that when it comes to jewish space lasers being used to control hurricanes

Thats a pretty thin argument. “If you replace this part of the movie, it could be completely different!”

Is home alone not a christmas movie because they also could have taken any vacation and left their kid at home?

It is literally set at a christmas party. Without christmas, that movie doesnt happen

RSVPs are a thing

I mean, back when, it wasnt uncommon to be marrying young. Cinderella came out in 1950, a time where women didnt go to college, and it wasnt uncommon to be married right after high school to someone who could provide for you, would could easily be 22. Thats for everyday people. I imagine being royalty, where you didnt really have to go to high school or college, shakes those ages up even more

I wouldnt go as far as to call it a conspiracy theory because that wasnt out of the ordinary at the time

Well if he has his way, he’s going to be able to remove general at will

My perspective is that in his first term, he rewarded loyalty but also attempted to place some pieces based on merit. He learned that he needed more loyalty to do what he wanted, (Pence wouldn’t do what trunp wanted on j6), so he’s going all out loyalist this go around.

Hopefully yall are right. They incompetence is so great they’re wildly useless. Because we’ve already seen they’re will be no consequences for their actions

I feel like the things I want to call you besides calling out your lack of diamond hands will get me banned but would be normal wallstreetbets language

I hate the, “make an appointment online!” Button that basically just turns into them calling you instead of you calling them. If I wanted to talk on the phone, I would have called you at my convenience. You calling me is way less convenient. Don’t put that I can make an appointment online if I can’t
