@Gargron I didnt even know spotify had real-time live music...

Whoever said the only purpose of guns are to kill clearly never shot at flaming cans of deodorant in their back yard...
Me and the dutch guys were sitting around shooting an air rifle (the only legal thing here). Being America I had to, of course, find a way to make it lethal. So we lit a fire around a can of deodorant and shot it. This is the result.
@masterofthetiger@theres.life You have a list of things which in your opinion are true. The process each of us uses to determine what is true is by its very nature subjective since our own perceptions, the mechanism by which we evaluate the arguments are themselves subjective. Everything about the process at every level is subjective.
@jrdmb No worries I should be working on that this week.
@Mjoez It isnt an option. Your account can be suspended though if you wish. It is like a deletion.
@mngrif There are no mountains in the Netherlands, everything is negative sea level mostly.
@jrdmb Sorry for late reply I was traveling. It has only been temporarily disabled as it caused some issues with the upgrade. It will be restored in the next few days.
@twdockery Sadly she is not likely to be going away. As you say a symptom of the disease of immaturity that plagues the left lately. I entierly expect her and others even less mature than her to be the new face of the left in america.
The right has its own issues too, not so much immaturity, but issues that are just as bad.
You are pretty much screwed if you live in any english speaking country and actually expect sane politics from anyone, especially the general population.
@twdockery First off, as someone who has plenty of degrees under his belt I can tell you they mean **nothing** as to your intelligence. It speaks towards her hard work, but that is it.
As for Trump not improving in his role, well I dont expect him to. He simply doesnt have the character to better himself. If that speaks to Alexandria or not, that remains to be seen. But suffice to say she has had to conduct herself respectfully and formally in enough papers that she does know better, but like many liberals (and conservatives) she simply has no desire to be mature or respectful in her discourse.
Time we kick both of them out of office, we can reconsider them once they grow up. Political office is no place for someone to grow up, they should already be there before they join.
@Surasanji Agreed :)
Its funny, I agree with many of her points, disagree with some others. But her immature, childish, and uneducated way of speaking is hard to look past for someone in her position. In the end there are bigger issues and more offensive politicians (like trump). But still, every time she opens her mouth it is cringe worthy :(
XVII( I do not love you)
I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way
than this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.
-- Pablo Neruda
this is one of my favorite poems :)
