So the Supreme Court has ruled that if you strike, or your union strikes, you can be sued for any business costs or loss of business.

How long before you can't quit a job without being sued?? Or being forced to work without a contract??

@Hyolobrika@berserker.town @lowqualityfacts , no, I'm thinking anywhere. Although Tim Pool falling into lava might be especially entertaining...

@w7voa Russia pulled out of that treaty.

@lowqualityfacts , to be fair, I wouldn't lose any sleep over Tim Pool's death.

@Radical_EgoCom@kolektiva.social , that guy should have picked better parents.

@futurebird , there is a trend on Reddit to try and make everything into a joke, which I actually approve of, since everyone seems to know in advance this is what will happen. I find that google image search is effective, but sometimes just doesn't work, so calls for 'google it' are unnecessarily aggressive and pointless. I think the issue with 'google it' is exacerbated by the people who just never google up the most obvious facts.., and demand others do research for them. There are some who seem to think they have a right to others researching for them... that others have a burden of proof to provide research. To those I say, "google it."

@The_Whore_of_Blahbylon that's crossing a line...

@robertelectricity I like those skinny little athletic butts, that can backpack 20 miles a day.

@CharlieKruse , I feel so owned. And I'm not even a lib!!

@freemo He is back to roughly even in the polls. Much better than a week or two ago, when he was down 10 points.

Holy "Exodus 23:19 Exodus 34:26, and Deuteronomy 14:21" Batman!!!

@freemo I look at the stars, a lot. I noticed it as soon as it happened. Incredibly frustrating. But, I'm 60... And still have vision better than many ever have. And, glasses help.

@freemo I have those now too... although I don't wear them when shooting. But things over maybe 100 meters are getting tough to see. I think it's called a stigmatism? Where there are multiple images that overlap?? For now, I can shot at the bottom left image... but that will get worse.

@freemo Anymore I can't even see a target that far away. At my best, 30 years ago, that would have been an incredible rifle shot for me. That guy looks 70 and still did it in 2??

40 years ago I had a buddy who did competitive black powder shooting. They shot at (if I remember right) 1000 yard ranges. But still, rifles.

@freemo Practice, practice, practice! And the kid had only fired a handful of rounds through his rifle, and I highly doubt the scope was showing the same county. Did you watch that 1000 yard shot video? THAT is amazing.

@freemo That's better than my other kid about 3 years ago when he got a new deer rifle. :)

We set up a 60 yard range, with the plan to extend it to a couple hundred. I swear he had issues hitting a 4x4 sheet of plywood we had put up for something to nail the targets to.

Which reminds me, for his birthday I wanted to get a laser bore site gizmo so he can help zero his scope... I have a couple weeks still....

@freemo , I have seriously seen people who couldn't land a single round on the target, out of an entire magazine. They get better... I can still remember my 1st pistol shot... And the clump of dirt it kicked up about 20 yards from the firing line. My friends were saying things like "Holy shit Jon, you suck!" I got better.

@freemo , trust me when I say that for 20 yards, you did far better than many, and probably most. I know for a fact you just shot better than my kid, who is a cop. :)

@freemo , I won't swear to it, but I think on your target it says something like "25 yard pistol target." 20 is probably pretty common for indoor ranges.
