  • We’ve used kwikset dumb locks (no app) and never had one fail. We only had to change the batteries once and that was because I was paranoid that it had been 3 years, not because the batteries were dying. When it fails it is supposed to fail “locked” but again, we’ve never had it fail. We did discover to use the good name brand batteries though.

    Don’t get me wrong, we still have keys just in case, but holy crap the freedom of mind is great. My partner has severe anxiety and used to check the locks 6+ times a day but it auto locks now and they don’t have to worry about it. I think they only check now before bed.







  • This prompt is bizarre and seeems written by a male 14-39.

    I think I’m going with the short kings as long as the 10k is enough to protect me from them. They did consent to the escort mission and I think 10k is enough of a motivation to keep someone cooperative for a few hours. Plus I’m short too so I wouldn’t have to hear any talls bitching about pace.

    I feel like the soldiers outside of their time might have too much issue coming to terms with modernity.

    Also I think the group of women would absolutely be able to defend themselves but I don’t want to inflict this stress on a group of random women. Although they did consent and I’m assuming gave informed consent. Plenty probably said no, so the ones that said yes are feeling bold about it.

    Fuck it, I change my mind I’m going with the gaggle of sassy ladies.

    They’d all have each other’s back and are used to being on high alert. Probably pretty scrappy too. There’s no city I can think of that has 10 whole miles of "bad’ so really it would be just isolated pockets of heightened danger and a long walk otherwise.

    Plus there’s way less of a chance of them turning on me.






  • Ok how else would you word that I’m on the political “side” of the meme and still call it out for being kinda shitty by misrepresenting the ‘other side’ in a way that undermines the credibility of the message?

    I did not expect this to blow up and made an offhand criticism that used a cliche literary device before heading out for the day. I apologize for getting tripped up when information is misleading or inaccurate, it’s a condition, and obviously I am long overdue at the gulag

    Y’all take stuff way too seriously on the Internet.


  • Man I’m a progressive and even I can tell this is propaganda.

    Also, missed a bunch of presidents? Bush 1 after Reagan. Lyndon B, Nixon, Ford and CARTER between Kennedy and Reagan.

    I obviously agree with the overall message (that “both sides” is and always has been bullshit) but c’mon man.

    Edit: like, you could put the actual campaign goals and summarized impacts and then it would be a real infographic. Like “passed tax cuts for top _% of income earning Americans” “repealed gun laws”. It’s still cherry picking and biased but that’s what moves something like this out of the realm of propaganda and into I dunno…something more like biased news? Bias isn’t inherently bad, obviously when you’re trying to have an argument you have a side and an agenda.
