Get yourself some clippers, watch some YouTube videos, and start saving yourself some money.
I did my sixth self-haircut a couple days ago. Came out okay–good enough for COVID. The clippers paid for themselves after three haircuts, so now it’s all gravy. Plus it’s fun to try different stuff.
Maybe. I get my hair cut like twice a year max at supercuts so it would take a little while to payoff though.
It’s not really that egregious, the US, UK, and Soviet Union all made very significant contributions to the war effort. The UK fought Germany from day one, and the Soviet Union might well have been defeated if not for lend lease. Giving your country a slightly outsized role in the history of the conflict is pretty normal, really.
The way WW2 is taught in USA#1 is pretty egregious. I mean, history in general is a joke here. I went to HS and college in Oklahoma. I was never taught about the Tulsa Race Massacre. Also, the way we teach the treatment of Native Americans in the state with the most NA per capita is… problematic at the least.
I would argue there’s a pretty strong correlation between the state of our public education system and the current clusterfuck we find our country in. Crazy how wanting everyone to have access to adequate medical care and an excellent public education system makes you a liberal commie who wants to destroy America.

Deactivated my Facebook today. I’ll probably make a new one to just follow events, but it feels good.

So we just left my parents’ house out in the suburbs. We went to water all my mom’s plants (which holy shit it’s an Easter egg hunt finding all those things. I see what she does in retirement now) while they’re at the lake catching COVID. On the way out of their addition, we saw a professional looking firework setup being assembled on someone’s yard. On the front porch of the same house, I saw my first TRUMP flag in the wild. I wish I loved anything as much as that hyper-masculine specimen loves his country.

No kidding. I live in a super blue county and I see Trump flags all over.
OKC, OK. The city (like all cities) is blue. We elected a dem to the US house last cycle. My
Parents live like 20 mins away in the town my dad and I went to HS in. It’s racist as fuck.
All the midwest is this way. Minneapolis is Democrat heavy enough to carry the elections. The rest of the state is Minnesota nice in that if you are white you are golden and if not move along.

On a national level I always thought blowing$$ on tv ads was extremely——EV. I would guess blowing money on your a tv network that’s primary purpose is to hate u is even more — EV. Maybe that’s part of Trumps narcissism, he thinks can change cnn viewers just like many maga morons think they can “ fuck the gay” out of lesbians or straighten them out.
Has anyone ever been swayed by a tv ad for a president itt?
Glad you finally showed up. Will you be modeling the elections this year?
I was joking/referring a movie to a line from a movie. Have you ever seen Hunt for Red October? It’s a good insight into how Americans in 1990 imagined the Soviets were like.
