    @LuFins-Dad I get what you are saying. We went back to tenting about ten years ago after almost twenty years of a truck camper. There was an adjustment involved that took a week or so. Still, I am content with tenting and the additional effort it takes to make a proper weather ready camp. I was lucky, I learned those skills as a kid from my father.

    @taiwan_girl said in 1000 Gold Cards: The revamped TrumpCard.gov website also invites applicants to join a waiting list for a new $5 million Trump Platinum Card, which would grant “the ability to spend up to 270 days in the United States without being subject to U.S. taxes on non-U.S. income.” A third product, the $2 million Trump Corporate Gold Card, promises “U.S. residency in record time” for select employees and allows businesses to “transfer access from one employee and grant it to another.” Haha, so predictable: https://nodebb.the-new-coffee-room.club/post/333932

    The man who attempted to assassinate Donald Trump at a Florida golf course last year tried to stab himself in the neck with a pen shortly after being found guilty of all counts on Tuesday. Officers quickly swarmed him and dragged him out of the courthouse. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/jury-convicts-ryan-routh-of-trying-to-assassinate-trump-at-his-florida-golf-course

    Eight convicted rioters were sentenced to varying prison and jail terms last week for their role in a So Cal Antifa attack in southern California in 2021. Heh… you know what I was going to post

    We are going to have some seriously smart and educated people coming up in the next generations, along with some seriously stupid ones who just rely on AI for everything. Jon Von Neumann, who has a reasonable claim to being the greatest intellect ever, had full time specialized tutors throughout his childhood. A version of him without that, would almost certainly not have been the towering force he became. Now, everybody will have a world class tutor in any subject, at their fingertips.

    Not even sure what we are debating here. I’m against gay marriage and other “rights” generally associated with the LGBT culture, I’d imagine very similar to how Kirk opposed it too. That being said, I’d imagine one reason he was shot was because of his anti-trans arguments, since the shooter was a trans-loving gay man himself, so I agree that gross characterizations are dangerous.

    Should have been mentioned then. I think it would appropriate to inform that the man had tried and used all available options.

    @jon-nyc said in LGBrexit?: This account has been active almost 5 years. How is it launching today? But yeah, I don’t blame them. I’m not sure, but I think that account belonged to a smaller informal group that is at the center of the new larger and more formal group.
