John Krasinski (left) played Jim on The Office (American) and in one episode, Randall Park (right) pretended to play him for a bit on the show to mess with another character (Dwight). The joke is that they're the same person.

No, wait, he's got a point...

If by that you mean "they followed the same standard procedure that's been in place for the entire history of the United States" then yes, exactly.

Or he waited until the Trump campaign sunk millions of dollars into a strategy that has now been completely subverted and which they have no real way out of without a massive pivot like dropping Trump which isn't going to happen. If that's the case, I'd call it a pretty savvy move.

And then a bunch of people do that because "my guy is going to win anyway so it doesn't matter" and you end up losing. Remember Brexit? never be too confident.

I bought a Reddit t-shirt in 2014...

That whole "yes I want to take your guns bit" is a really bad look.

The thing is they only need this level of fanatic obedience from their base to get IN. Once they are, and they're able to warp the government to their vision, everything else will fall into place.

I honeymooned in Vermont last year and watched a woman from Massachusetts punch a teenage girl in the face out of the blue. Like completely unprovoked, clocked her right between the eyes.

I mean to be fair, Jesus was executed whereas Trump got a slap on the wrist and had mean things said about him.

Imagine being such a neckbeard that you can't handle a joke about the same people you're shitting on. Go outside.

As an alumni of Ohio University who lives in Columbus my favorite thing to call them is OS-Who

It actually is a good book. As someone from the same general area, I saw a lot of my own family and experiences reflected in his writing. I had hopes that he might step up and push for more of a class-conscious republican party until he turned out to be a fascist tool.

Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor!

Thanks, is there any chance of static from the bubblewrap causing any shorts on the motherboard? I'll probably just wait to install the GPU until after I move then, no sense unpacking it and immediately repackaging it if everything else runs smoothly.

They didn't share a border until the Soviets and NAZIs jointly invaded their neighbor Poland.

Exactly, the country that shared a massive land border with the NAZIs and was a direct target of their aggression suffered many more casualties than the ones what didn't, who'da thunk it? Without the combined efforts of essentially the entire rest of the world, the USSR would have been toast.

To some degree or another? A significant portion.

And the Ukrainians, and the Poles, and the French resistance, and the British, and the Americans, and the Canadians, and...

Smith & Wesson M&P 15 Sport III 5.56 NATO w/ bump stock

Come to Columbus, Ohio. It doesn't have the name recognition of Seattle or Denver, but it's a pretty chill city with decent weather, good people, and a lower cost of living than just about anywhere else while also having job opportunities.

I spent two years working with Habitat as an AmeriCorps crew lead and it was such a rewarding experience. I learned all kinds of trade skills and got to meet so many good people from all walks of life. It gave me the direction I was looking for in my life when I needed it most.

It's been broken in the sense that the average person has been getting screwed over economically, but the system was still able to maintain basic rule-of-law and international relations. This is different.

I want whatever you're on

I appreciate the social awareness, but can we just have a nice thread about elephants for once

Try potatoes. They're ridiculously cheap (where I am) and loaded with nutrients.

Coomscrolling

Here you go, now hop to it!

I mean the war that showed the world that territorial conquest is back on the menu, and now other countries, like Israel and China, are trying to emulate.

World War 3 is already here, it just hasn't ramped up yet.

As someone from and currently still living in middle America, Trump winning wasn't surprising in the least. Part of me still blames the Democrats and "coastal left" in general for not paying enough attention to what has been going on here over the last thirty years. There was a time when these states could have become a bulwark for leftism with the right campaigning and political tactics, but by ignoring and culturally minimizing them it guaranteed that Christo-fascism would take hold. Ultimately though, people's choices are their own, it's just not worth it anymore and my husband and I are moving to New England in August and never looking back.

I mean, what could the rest of the world reasonably do aside from starting a world war over it? Sanctions might punish the Chinese economy, but they won't un-occupy HK.

I was a freshman in college that fall and someone put up flyers for a memorial dance party in his honor. They had cheap beer and loud music which was fun enough for teenage me.

...are heartless bastards.

That is indeed the kind of thing one could make inferences from.

Any bets on which state will be next? My bet is Mississippi.

Fly high, Gooners.

Marching in November does nothing. Active disobedience and (violently) refusing to accept dictatorship from January onward might.
