Yes, I do take libertarianism quite seriously, although definitely not the "nap" bullshit or the anarchist position.

A government should take care to build and protect infrastructure etc. But it should not be working as a charity. That only leads to creating a parasitic voting blocks.

I am not even sure If I like democracy to begin with. :ablobcatsweatsip:

@matana @renwillis @Lumeinshin
Again, that is the part I obviously agree with.
But I don't see the reason for it being free, mandatory, or cover the kids entire nutrition needs for the day.

@renwillis @Lumeinshin
Of course I am sorry your mom didn't love you enough to maintain a family, but I shouldn't be forced to pau for her decision not to feed you.

@matana @renwillis @Lumeinshin
I think you missed my point.
Of course I like the option of payed school lunch, but it should be
1) optional
2) Just one meal

People like it/it here believe, that the state should take care of complete nutrition for the kid, and obviously, that I should pay it. That is ridiculous.

@LukeAlmighty @renwillis
I knew a few kids who had school lunches and whilst I think that they did benefit somewhat, I do worry if all it does is encourage scumbag parents to just take advantage of them forever, rather than be the stop-gap for when times are tough that they were supposed to be, same with pretty much all social schemes sadly

Often times those kids had many more issues too that told me it wasnt just money that was the issue sadly. I knew one that had a parent on bennies that was DEFINITELY faking his issue. Others that just didnt take care of their kid, etc etc.
Even when my family were in a council house scraping by, me and my sibling managed to have a packed lunch, although I think we were always a bit too prideful to accept a benefits scheme, when it probably would've benefited us during those tougher times.

Nice graphic showing USA bank collapses this century to put the recent #SVB in context.

@Lumeinshin @renwillis
Yes...
And I am quite pissed by how much people are begging for even bigger centralized bandaids.

@schmaker @gamingonlinux
That cannot end well.
Brother will try Skyrim, game gets copied from me, and out of nowhere, big boobs everywhere.

@Moto_Chagatai MtG is pretty shit in the department of clarity, huh? Solemnity clearly says on the card that it doesn't allow counters anywhere, and there's nothing that the One Ring says about denying Solemnity.

I find this funny because I played just a bit of YGO and they're the exact opposite, they even have mentions of your mother if they need to clarify an effect. :guraKekw:

@renwillis
If only there was an adult in the life of that kid, who could take care of that.

@Terry @eee
What a strange maneuver.
It seems obvious, that this was a "minimal damage capture" operation, but what was that stuff?
