I only ever had two lucid dreams: one as a child, where I conjured a gun to play with, and my best dream, ever in my life, as an adult where I just turned the dream into an orgy. Read about training lucid dreaming and tried but could never actually get myself to lucid dream again.

No no no, calendar is stopping, so March 1 can be a day later. We’re not jumping, we’re waiting for some time to pass before resuming counting.

Thank God I thought I was making it up, but where did YOU learn to read 𐙋 ?

Lactose curious is a thing, one of my coworkers will have dairy on special occasions and plans for the aftermath

Your post implies that government is good by default.

There’s hiding bad activity the government was elected to perform, like intelligence meddling in foreign affairs to protect the country’s interests, and there’s hiding activity to shield themselves from voter accountability, like using the apparatus to enrich other parts of government at a direct cost to its own citizens, or shield malicious actors from accountability.

They do lots of both, so why trust by default?

Had a dream the other day, with this exact scenario: woke up wet in the dream, then woke up for real totally dry. (Or did I wake up at all?)

PSA: the second amendment protects molotov cocktails.

Burn the gun registries and put a few anti tank rockets and some hand grenades in every home within 50 miles of the border, mine the land near the border.

That will at least make it extremely costly to accomplish having invaded at all, and give Russia a reason to stop before they’re so far in that stopping counts as retreat.

But then what do you do about those monsters who leave carts in motion, on slopes, leaving them to hit parked cars?

Funny thing that, European countries haven’t lasted nearly as long as the US on average: revolutions, conquest, coups. Only a couple of monarchies and even those had some big changes in the way the government is structured like with constitutional changes. The US, though, has a ton of new laws but is fundamentally unchanged.

Sort of, my point is really that there are new kinds of work that were not really conceivable at the time, most of which has no direct influence on whether you’re fed, clothed, housed, and healthy. (Indirectly is another matter, North Korean’s wisest minds centrally decide what really matters and look where that gets them… Not a 3 day work week)
