 Hop in on a buddies bonanza and take the controls mid flight 
 I was offered a chance like that by the guy who build his own, but I've never had a chance to ask him, and I feel kind of rude asking. 
 I always wanted to fly, but it's way too expensive and I wasn't going to join the air force like my dad. I know a guy who built his own plane for little money, but even then the licensing fees are way too high.

 Because it doesn't affect them personally. They grin and bear it and think of England... I mean Marvel.

 My family has has huge fight with out other side on this. Some really do believe it whites and it... 
 It's more than that. I've seen a concerted effect from the top to trick people into thinking it's Whites attacking Asians. There is an army of these agitprop Asians that they on call for any instances of violence to distract from what really happened. Even when the suspect was a Black man (which it often is), they still condemn "White Supremacy" and blame it for what happened. Of course, it all makes sense, as the racist White Supremacist system is what drove the black man to stalk an Asian woman to her apartment and then slaughter her for literally no reason.

Back when the "stop Asian hate" thing was going on, Kimberly Yam (a journalist from NBC) published an article with sources tied to a schizo-tier google doc showing some long cope alleging that a majority of all instances of crime Asian's report have a White suspect, and so it's really all Whites attacking them. 
 The real red pill is that things you think are problems today were problems 100 years ago, and the people who you were told were wrong about everything were actually right about a lot of things.

 yea well i wanna grow potatoes and carrots and beans etc, also pears apples thems goods tuff. 
 I've grown or seen people grow most of those in the desert. The things that seem hardest to grow are potatoes and onions. But onions are only hard if you grow them during the summer. Onions grow better during the spring and summer months in southern deserts, and Arizona has it's own breed of multiplier onion, the I'itoi, which grows wild there, but it's hard to find in stores.

 Light a fire in their home, make them learn 
 I know the house is a rental (all the houses on this street are, thanks to it's proximity to a university) There are around 6 people living there, I don't understand why they haven't changed it.

 I really hate that we can't just be nice to people without having some slimy kike finding a way to bend that rule for someone else.

 What’s the story with the Asian girl? 
 To correct what I mean (which I hope didn't come off as rude), I didn't want to know specifically where you tutored. I was wondering if you were doing remote tutoring through a website, or something like it. I've been looking at doing that, but I'm not convinced it's worth it, and I don't know anyone who's done something like it.

 I thought the fire alarm thing was mostly a meme...

It's been a week, and these asshole next door to me still haven't changed the batteries. I leave my window open during the day, and I can hear it. It's driving me nuts. 
 The worst part is no one else around me seems to notice. It's not that loud, because it's not in my house. I notice because I've accidentally trained myself to listen for the beeps.

I did this to myself.

 >France is more likely to go nuclear over Hermes, Cartier, LVHM, etc. than a telescope company.

Right, it's a very small company in a very niche market. Pretty much free for the taking. It's why I wonder what the correct state solution is. Is there one that does not also hurt the people of the nation?

 Reminds me of the LIGO experiment 
 Or the Michelson–Morley experiment, or any interferometer (I've been told they can catch earthquakes on the VLA radio telescopes).

 Not clear, all I can find is a description of the experiment. 
 Thinking about it a little more, he was probably careful with the times he made measurements. The best times to record would be at night, when everyone is sleeping, since he had it bolted to his bedroom's foundation. There would also be very few semi's driving after sundown, too. That would minimize the noise and false signals. 
 There is some truth to what he says. I've hear it said this way by another historian:

"The job of a historian is actually to be a bit of a revisionist, otherwise there's be no reason to pay us."

The problem is that this means that professional historians actually become a weird mix of propagandist, provocateurs, and contrarians. 
 And to fully clarify, the issue isn't that they do this, but that only one side gets a voice. So the people who think otherwise are totally shut out of academia, and those who sneaked in will be condemned, while the other side gets away with literally anything it wants. This is part of the struggle that needs to be taken on. The struggle for academia is probably one of the most difficult fights. You could even take the nations, much like Hitler did, but unless you purge them as well, like Mao did, then they'll still oppose you.

 I'm honestly glad I'm off that site. I don't like arguing with people anyway, and owning the libs... 
 Sites like twitter are idiot boxes filled with bots ran by government actors and literal psychotic people who harass anyone that says anything not approved by the government. They can insult you as much as they like, while you are forced to walk on egg shells just to stick up for yourself in order to prevent getting banned. It's bad for your mental health. 
 This is the #1 shitlib debate strategy. You get fatigued by having explaining every little point to them. Their hope is that you'll get too frustrated by having to fully elaborate and cite every little thing you say, and then "they win".
