When teachers cease to be learners, their students will cease to be also.

😂 😂 😂

accessible description of freemo's toot:
@freemo says "Communists are adorable...";
there is an image of a tweet from Twitter by a user named @TheAliceSmith; the tweet shows a picture of John Lennon and Yoko Ono during their Bed-in protest; Lennon is standing and Ono is sitting and they are waiting for a maid to make their bed so they can get back in their bed and continue their protest; the text in the tweet says, "That moment when you are a working-class communist millionaire but you have to wait for the maid to finish making your bed so you can continue to Imagine no possessions."

It amazes me that a 10mm Luger bullet (middle) has about 50% MORE energy than the significantly larger .45 colt long (right).

For reference on tbe left is a 9mm parabellum.

@freemo Haha I’ve unintentionally left spent casings in the driver’s seat of a car I borrowed (they fell out of my front pocket). One time I had a hole in my pocket, casings fell through my pants leg and into my boot. Had to take the boot off and shake the casings out of it in front of people like a clown, but this was on a shooting range at least.

While undressing to shower in my hotel room I found an old used bullet casing in my pocket... the maid will have an interesting time cleaning this room tomorrow ;)

Yes has been emailed many times by people with money asking to buy influence. Im sure most large instance admins have dealt with it many times... i usually just ignore the emails, nothing new, move along.

People have asked me to 'preblock' this project but I am not gonna.

Meta is not Gab so we give them a chance and can always block them later with 2 simple button clicks..

We would never ever sell out on you but rather invest time to make this all go smooth without everything come crashing down

I hope this clears up some mis-understandings

#Russia forces filled up a T-55 tank with 6 tons of TNT and sent it towards #Ukraine positions without crew. The tank was stopped by a land mine in the middle of the field but then apparently still remotely detonated. Looking at the size of the explosion, it certainly could have harmed unprotected soldiers in the trenches by the shockwave alone, but at the same time the damages to the field and trees afterwards seem unproportionately low as compared to the size of the charge and the vehicle used to deliver it. Using a VBIED — or TBIED in this case — was usually guerrilla tactics used against a much stronger opponent in lack of any more effective weapons...

@Pat Nope, and please dont bring that up again or I will have to report you. No mine are about perfectly ordinary friendly birds that absolutely dont spy on you. In fact they are so obviously not spying that they are a perfect choice to tell all your secrets to!

William: Its not love

Death: What is it

William: Some aimless infatuation which for the moment you feel like indulging. Its missing everything that matters.

Death: Which is what?

William: Trust, responsibility, taking the weight for your choices and feelings and spending the rest of your life living up to them, and above all not hurting the object of your love.

Death: So that's what love is according to William Perish?

William: Multiply it by infinity and take it to the depth of forever and you will still have barely a glimpse of what I'm talking about.

Death: Those are my words

William: They are mine now

I mean... some truth to that... most of the "common sense" gun laws proposed are completely ignorant of why it is the way it is.
