He has been at the head of a company for years. He is now in a position of overseeing and altering whole government organizations.

He knows the stakes, he knows the responsibility, he’s been in the public eye for a long time. The salute was legit that is out of the question, he could have made any number of different gestures but he did that particular one twice.

Now at BEST it was “just” a senseless and reckless lapse of judgement or some batshit level trolling. But even if I gave that benefit of the doubt why would I want someone with that little self control anywhere near the level of government that he is currently playing with?

If I was calling the shots I would show him the door and pull all US Govt support for anything he touches on principal alone. Not a fan of Trump but even he hasn’t pulled shit like this.

If it has been in the forecast for a few days you take some time to prepare a bit. Gas up your car, get any last minute shopping done etc so you don’t have to go out if you can help it. Schools will probably close for a day but workplaces will expect you to give yourself enough time because we all saw it coming.

Lake Effect snow from the Great Lakes is a common thing in my area. We don’t get nearly as much as the Buffalo area but forecasts can be real hit or miss. So sometimes a random snow squall will just roll in and dump an inch or three in a few hours. In that case my workplace will be a bit more forgiving about delays but schools will probably stay open.

I love it when people who rarely get snow get to geek out about it

Yeah most recent I’ve seen was the Final Fantasy VII remake

like “Naughty Dog Yellow” for climbable interactive things? I don’t think so

Prompt: Limo interior. Covered in soft red fabric, soft plush, nice mood lighting. Tisssues and wine on a small stand.

That is exactly what I am trying to convey, thank you.

Red shirt is wrong for ignoring the pointing person. The person pointing out the nazi is right. I am trying to argue that the person pointing out the nazi and the people who conditioned red shirt to the point of ignoring a legitimate cry are not the same and ultimately did not help things.

Yeah I get that they would try to make noise to hide in. But I imagine that is not the majority of cases where someone is labeled as a nazi. Note this was from 2010, long before Trump entered politics.

And this isn’t to say I like, support or side with them it’s just people ignore the term after a while of hearing it everywhere for all kinds of things that don’t fit

I know, it’s the response from red shirt. He doesn’t listen to the guy calling out the nazi, explaining how it’s probably just overexaggeration.

It’s similar to the ending of the boy who cried wolf. It’s not that most people like wolves, or side with wolves, or think wolves aren’t a threat. It’s the person that that yells wolf is ignored when the real deal comes around.

I don’t like nazis. At all. But there is certainly an argument that the term had been used too loosely (I was just called one in this comment section ffs) and now people are making nazi salutes in DC and are being ignored.

Crying wolf…again. The guy in the comic has to specify “literally a nazi” because using the regular word’s meaning has been diluted so he has to put emphasis to specify it’s a “true” nazi, not just a “vague” nazi.

Yes it’s frustrating red shirt won’t turn around to see that it is in fact a true, no shit, actual, factual, punchable, dictionary definition of a nazi but that’s because the word has been overused. Your reply is proof.

It’s sad but he’s not wrong. Nazi has been used on so many people I’ve lost count and people wonder why it has lost effect

This was the image I was thinking of when I first saw him do the thing

Wonderful! I hope you have a great time here in the US, I know I enjoyed my time in Germany

Just go for it, so long as you aren’t overtly rude you’ll have minimal issues (hard to do, in my experience Germans are quite polite). Few people will care at all and those that do probably won’t tell you to your face which is for the best for everyone anyway.

Assuming you’re going to visit as a tourist most places you will be at will be fine for both of you.

Also check out Atlas Obscura and Wikivoyage if you haven’t they are both cool resources for getting around and finding things to do

The southernmost point of Key West FL, Grand Forks ND, Portsmouth NH, Boise ID

He was already president once, anything post 2016 is probably noted.

And some people just never EVER shut up about them so there’s plenty of noise to hide in

Most places will have more stuff in the air in the eveming. Pollution, dust etc.

Oh gotcha I’ve done that before just didn’t know the term. Thanks!

What is sideloading?

I’m not a mod or anything but I think it’s fine. At least it’s not some of the political or doomer stuff that you see here sometimes
