I think he's actually saying, "if you retaliate, we will escalate"

Have you tried punching him in the face? Most people don't like that and if you do it enough they'll usually just go away forever.

But for real if you don't know details about this then you probably shouldn't try to push the point. Either get more info so you can be persuasive or wait until the dude does something fucked up again (not ideal).

But also, a lot of abusive people will just lie and wiggle out of any accountability so you might end up having to punch them in the face anyway. In my experience you usually have to be very aggressive with them at minimum or they'll brush it off and act like you're overreacting, joking, etc. I've confronted people like this several times over the years and every single time it's been a hassle, they never just accept it and move on and they definitely don't apologize

Luckily I don't live in the path of these storms, but we literally just had the worst floods we've seen in 30+ years just a few weeks ago

wow such efficient DOGE

It's been so long since I've been in this situation that everything is different now, but 20 years ago the trick to making money morally and legally without having a normal job was to diversify. You won't make $1k selling plasma or scrap, but you can make a few hundred. Busking is great in some areas if you can play an instrument or anything like that. Panhandling can be alright, but I've heard it's harder these days in person.

The moral AND legal part makes this a lot harder btw. Have you considered giving one of them up?

I'm actually the continuously variable type

He said chatbots will be teaching kids to read and write within 18 months...about 24 months ago.

This is the trans agenda at work

Not that weird when you think about how much effort has been put into rightwing propaganda in online games. Bannon was recruiting fash in WoW general chat like 20 years ago

Defining things based on the so-called race of the people doing it feels a lot like applying gender to inanimate objects

The Gallup polls always had trump bouncing up and down between like 35% and 50% over the years, but early in his first term is almost identical to this one. I don't really trust polling in general anyway, but I guess there's not much else to go off at this point. He did get booed pretty hard at the Superbowl

Trump and his policies are significantly more popular now than they were in 2017

Why do you say this? Things seem about the same to me.
