As much as I hate it, there's currently still available a thread on Reddit that provides links to various archives of January 6th info/video/etc. I personally have the 1~ TB video archive data saved and mirrored on a couple of cold storage drives and I'd encourage anyone with the extra HDD space to grab as much as you can while it's there.

Oh, I just mentioned it as a point of interest when discussing banning "acronyms". Wasn't meant to call you, the OP, out or anything. Just found it funny that mods would ban for acronyms, yet in the messages, use an acronym.

I mean, if in the context those posts were low-effort and didn't contribute to the thread in any meaningful way, I could understand. Like sharing nothing but a reaction gif in a discussion heavy community could be seen as "low effort".

But common acronyms? Yeah, that's definitely a strange thing.

Also, isn't GIF itself an acronym? something-or-other Image Format?

You'd get more for developing the land, yes. But depending on your area, and how you develop it, you might not profit from it.

Land with trees on it looks nicer, and draws a higher premium, but usually only if those trees are mature and provide benefits in the form of shade, use, etc.

A scraggly patch of undeveloped land with some scraggly new trees won't see much of an increase.

Really depends on the market, and the effort you're willing to put in if making money is the goal.

Just throwing an anecdote out there, but just went to nasa.gov myself, entered "Sally Ride" in their search box, and it pulled up several pieces about her. This is as of February 7th, 2025 for a reference for those that see this comment at some later date.

I don't know if it's wanting to see "The End" as you put it, but at least in my case I'm just tired of all the "We're this close to doomsday!" stuff and think to myself "Holy crap, just get it over with already" - the idea being that after everything turns to absolute crap, the only direction left is back up.

Like either the world is going to end soon, or we're going to figure out how to get along as a collective, global society. But while we're stuck in between the two, it's annoying.

People want spaces about a certain topic. It makes sense that people then "censor" things that don't fit said topic.

Even if that topic is "Be kind".

Just as with "free speech" in real life, online there are also limitations. If you disagree with those limitations, you have the freedom to go elsewhere. If you find that nowhere fits the kind of place you want to be in, make your own.

Just as people don't have to tolerate being around others mouthing off in their face, so to can they take steps to avoid/prevent that online.

In my opinion, people that can't fathom that concept are the ones most in need of that oversight.

I can say for certain that they dont. At least not all of the firearms. And "or else"? Really? Are you intending that to read as a threat, or merely a warning about said dumbfucks?

Because that sort of "threat" is a nice indicator of the type of person that shouldn't have access to firearms.

I mean besides the obvious in ties to a SovCit, the letter itself doesn't read quite like it should. The language used seems a little too basic for a financial document.

Though I can't say for certain, as I have exactly zero experience with financing a car through a dealer. Credit unions ftw.

Those dumbfucks are a vocal minority. We tend to forget that the internet is not necessarily representative of a population. So pretty much every "extreme" really ought to be taken with a grain of salt.

Spitwad blasters. Hard to get a good distance without some sort of directional control and air focus.

With the caveat of "actual journalism". Too many "journalists" just rehashing social media posts, not nearly enough in-depth investigative journalism.

I'd also like to see less editorialization of news-worthy topics, and more "Here are the facts, in their entirety".

But yes, fuck the corporatized mass media in general. Obviously there are some exceptions, but those holding the purse strings can all collectively fuck off.
