    I’m sure this may work in maybe 1% of circumstances of super fit, tall, jacked, stupidly tough, experienced martial arts experts vs an “Average bear”

    Like the theory is sound, you could conceivably choke out a bear but it would be a motherfucking wild ride IF you can get into place to do it.


  • I once made “Povery rolls”

    I took every last scrap of leftover food, all the half bags of frozen veggies and so on from the freezer. Defrosted it all, put it in a stock pot and cooked it till it was a thick stew moved it to a giant bowl and went buck wild with the electric mixer then threw in about 4kg of self raising flour and water. The dough tasted ok, but then I did the same thing with the spice rack… stock cubes, french soup mix… the works. They tasted odd. But I rested the dough, divided them up and baked them anyways.

    Fuuuuuuuck they were amazing. They tasted like a family sunday roast dinner flavored heavy doughy roll. It made about 50 of them. I scoured the house for change and found enough to go grab a decent sized packet of powdered gravy mix.

    I was genuinely sad when I used the last ones.







  • Realistically any “bring back manufacturing” plan can work it just takes a long time, even longer when you start making the world very economically uncertain.

    But lets say John Deere decides to move some foreign component manufacture back to the us and builds a factory to do it in record time. They will not be building in downtown Manhattan, they will build in Deerdick Alabama because the land costs nothing and the local unskilled labor isnt spoiled for options so are unlikely to stand up to management or quit. If you can repeat that 100 times across the country in these poorer rural red states thats going to benefit his core greatly.


  • Fighting back, documenting and contacting the union usually doesnt work the first time but each time theres another incidence of something that could be considered inappropriate behavior the pressure mounts in your favor.

    HR is there to protect the company, but once you can show a pattern HR is there to protect the company Once the cost of you potentially suing for them failing in their duty of care to protect you from workplace bullying and harassment is more than the cost of replacing the assholes doing it then they will act.

    The biggest issue is with this that nobody is perfect, and you biting back one time or giving them anything to complain about you to management puts you back at square one.







  • Not just that they exist but that they are a fucking huge drain on society.

    As much as Billionaires are a cancer and the world would be better without them, Jeff Bezos never smashed the window on my car to steal my speakers, he doesnt come out vandalising public transport or parks and he isnt the reason my wife doesnt feel safe walking around at night. Billionaires are the reason we dont get more nice things, these assholes are the reasons we cant keep the ones we have.

    They also make any sort of socialistic change harder, because any time you try to help the “underprivileged” anyone who wants to oppose it can hold up one of these wastes of oxygen and use them as the spokesperson.
