    Red Flag Laws

    Any time I hear about gun reform, gun regulation, or anything of the sort my mind immediately goes back to what my grandfather told me when I was growing up. He said that any form of gun control is racist. This used to confuse me until I got older and relized who they would use this to target...

    Tulsa Hospital Shooting

    This kind of crap should not happen. I am honestly sick of it all but I don't blame guns. Clearly, if we had a gun problem these shootings would be happening daily in many states. Think of how many schools and hospitals there are and how rare this actually is. When you see the bigger picture...

    Off the grid

    It would be best to have some sort of functional space where people who are otherwise good people can come when they can't afford all the necessary items to do it alone. It is hard to gather the right people for this. There will be a lot of freeloaders and do-nothings who just want to piggyback...

    The Boys Season 3 Discussion Thread

    Maybe slow was the wrong word. There was a lot of action and it kept moving but it felt sluggish for me. Maybe I just was not vibing with any of the characters so I lost interest.

    Do you think kids should come after marriage?

    This is a fair point. Two married people being parents in an unhealthy marriage can be damaging to a child being raised in that environment. Sometimes, people just should be having kids together.

    The heat is on Ricky Gervais now...

    2008 seems to be a marker for a lot of things. Didn't Nas say rap died in 08/09 or something to that effect? I feel like the real shift happened after Occupy Wallstreet which was in 2010 I believe. That is when the banks had people of all races and income levels blaming them after they bailed...

    Would you ever date someone who didn't speak the same language?

    Nope. We need to be able to be on the same page. If you speak English as a second language, that is workable but if you can hardly speak it or don't speak it at all? How the heck are we meant to communicate in a healthy manner?

    WTF - pregnant black woman shot down!

    https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/crime/pregnant-black-woman-shot-missouri-police-b2090681.html I am sorry but what? WTF? It is a car... Is it really worth killing an unarmed black woman who could be pregnant over a car? My guess is that the dude she was with was putting her...

    Do you think online dating has hurt our relationships?

    This is the best description of dating apps I have read. It really is the door dash of the dating world. It has brought hook-up culture to the mainstream and now we have both men and women just looking to knock boots and move on.

    The Boys Season 3 Discussion Thread

    My brother kept nagging me to watch this and I did. I will be honest, I couldn't get into it but I think I should try again cause the ratings are doing great and a lot of people I know watch it and love it. Was the first season just a lot slower to start with?

    Apparently, I had Covid...

    Get some vitamin D on your bones. It helps the immune system. Most people I know who got vaccinated and boosted got the flu. I looked into the studies and it does protect you and boost your immune response to the virus but it only lasts 6 weeks to 3 months in younger adults. After that, it...

    Biden is proposing that the IRS can check on our Bank Accounts

    This is nothing new for old Joe. The man is a power-hungry nutcase. Obama has been on record saying he had to keep him in check on a number of occasions but I guess people forgot that when it came to voting. Everything this man touches turns to shit. We need to make sure we stay ahead of it and...

    Hunter Biden is a mess

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10846603/Hunter-Bidens-search-history-reveals-obsession-porn.html If you go to the article, be warned that there are some gross/graphic images. They are censored but still, they are messed up. Looking over all this information... I just can't believe...

    Pets/Animal Companions

    Cats are easy to love. I prefer them over dogs by a long shot... But reptiles and such? Ehh. I mean I have had some. I had a corn snake when I was in my teens, and I had a few geckos in my early 20s. I would NEVER keep something that could hurt me or anyone else. That is just crazy. One pet I...

    The heat is on Ricky Gervais now...

    I still remember back in the day, when stand-up was a platform and comedy was a space for people to be brutally honest. People like George Carlin (for better or worse) kept it as real as he could and while I never agreed with him on everything (one of the big ones being God and faith), he ALWAYS...

    Supporting people while not supporting the LGBT+

    For years, they preached to be tolerant. Soon as most people were, they started being intolerant. Now, if you don't agree with them when it comes to politics, religion, or the economy you are homophobic or transphobic. I legit heard them calling people who were trans or gay those labels. It is a...

    Shake My Head

    The dude has a slave kink, I swear. I bet he has his wife whip him in the backyard when the neighbors aren't home. I am sorry but a dude looking like him should not be taking a woman's name, much less a white woman's name. The f is wrong with him?

    Baby Formula shortage.

    Don't breast pumps help as well? I heard that supplementing can encourage lactation too. Something has to give. The US is filled with very unhealthy children.

    Supporting people while not supporting the LGBT+

    I have no issues with people being whatever. I never have. If you are gay, lesbian, bi, etc. then you do you. I understand that we have no control over whom we are attracted to but I cannot support a group that is ruining lives and harming children. It is Pride Month tomorrow and I feel like I...

    Pets/Animal Companions

    Some people are just crazy. I knew a guy who kept nothing but venomous snakes and reptiles. He ended up having to hand a lot of them over when the state banned the keeping of certain species. Unless you run some sort of educational program, there is no reason to collect dangerous animals like this.
