I’ve smoked out of a cell phone back when they had antennas you could unscrew, 3/10

I mean yeah, it’s not uncommon to know where each other live, there’s also that unspoken respect of leave people alone. Also yet another reason to not be an asshole in a small town lol.

I don’t wanna smoke my computer

I live in a small mountain town, and property values went apeshit. Like a house/cabin that was $150-250k is now $4-500k. It’s insane.

Privacy and anonymity is definitely still a thing as long as you keep you business to yourself, because as I’m guessing you’re alluding to, people are pretty chatty as it is and a smaller population makes it more difficult. It also helps to not be an asshole and give people even more to talk about, especially when most everyone knows each other.

I’ve never made it myself, unfortunately couldn’t tell you.

Have you had birria made with proper goat meat? It’s heavenly.

Tbf Asus has been dogshit for at least a decade at this point.

Gestures broadly at the federal government

Americans will be pissed, but at the end of the day nothing measurable will come of it. We’d have to be straight starving to get off our asses and get shit done.

Just a small handful, no big deal.

Damn dude, chill out. You’re assumptions are out of this world and it’s laughable.

I can tell you’re blowing smoke out of your ass because anyone with eyes and rudimentary gun knowledge would be able to tell pretty quickly this is an ar-10, not 15. This was built for me by a buddy, the optic and stock I purchased after the fact. Yes the optic is overkill for this particular rifle, and will likely get transferred to my 30-06. The image is from the shop where we signed the transfer paperwork.

You’re showing your colors as a stereotypical arrogant keyboard warrior, who takes their assumptions and runs a marathon with them, parading around like a pathetic asshat to make yourself feel better. Grow up and be better.

It’s not a Magpul, I forget the brand but it’s super comfy.

My small town is very heavily armed, but is also way more moderate (purple) than anything. Sure we have our far right wingnuts, but they tend to be on the lower end of the intelligence spectrum in these parts. They tried forming a militia a while back, and most everyone in town just laughed at them. A lot of of us enjoy going shooting regularly (when it’s not freezing out), and I’m certainly not trying to take on the gravy seals by myself lol. My good buddies and I have contingency plans in place in case shit goes sideways in the worst of ways.

I’m reliably accurate to about 800 yards and I really don’t like fascist assholes.

It’s also not hard to buy a gun, that’s just a bunch of baloney, even here in CA. Yes there are carry restrictions, and yes it’s more involved than other states, but buying one is not as difficult as people make it out to be.

It sounds like some employers/HR outfits are just grossly misinformed then. The I9 form directions are pretty clear in what is required and/or acceptable, and this documentation is only required for I9 purposes, other than a DL for a driving related job. Companies are not necessarily required to have copies of the I9 identity documents used on file, but it is good practice in case of an audit, which is why most companies do it (a CYA basically). In theory, if someone reports a company because they suspect they’re employing people unauthorized to work in the US, providing copies of the documents you used for the I9 verification shows that your did your due diligence and they’re more likely to leave you alone.

Pretty much every company I ever worked for took a copy of my passport, and I see no harm in that as long as their storage is reasonably secure.

Buttered Toast and Recursive Folder Shenanigans

When I onboard people, I’m required to see proof of identity and proof of authorization to work in the US, as well as make copies for INS audit purposes. A passport covers both of those requirements, but for people that do not have a passport, a DL and a social security card are the most common, followed by a DL and birth certificate. One is a photo ID from an official source, the other shows either US citizenship or something saying you’re allowed to work as a non citizen (aka a green card).

It’s somewhere in South Africa. And just in case, you have to be a citizen of the US by birth to be eligible for the presidency.

Ah yeah, that’ll happen.

Might just be a subconscious response to still-active societal social pressures, and your mind reminding you why it’s not a good idea. Perhaps on some low level you may still want a certain amount of relation with your peers that’s reminiscent of those younger days that you no longer have, but your brain is fighting back to that base instinct.

Ah that a bunch of crap. It’s the difference that there are a decently informed number of people that are actively speaking up and have been for years that everything hasn’t slid to hell long before all this. Yeah, we’re in a pretty fucked situation right now, and yes, too many people are still blindly going along with it, but it would be a much more dire situation if we didn’t have the information gleaned from that era.
