 Wild seeing them in Maine. I’ll always bring it up and say I like the other flag they flew, the white one. Also don’t like hearing that it’s the most un-American thing they could do. I know there is worse, I just like saying it. Buy it: Nice Mlb Authentic Collections Cleveland Indians Shirt   Home:  Handstee

 I know some guys from high school with Trumper flags outside of Buffalo. High school was challenging for them and 10 years later it doesn't seem like they've done anything with their lives. I kinda went off a bit, not too bad, basically said he could give a fuck about anything but himself yada yada. And he told me to lose his number. Buy it: Happy  Tampa Bay Bandits Shirt  Home:  Handstee

 Me too. As a queer, I make sure to present very masculine going into PA and such because I’m not going to jail for getting into a fight. You totally have my support.

 Had a reddit conversation with a trumper about how trumpism is a cult. He gave me a list of things he said cults are, to debunk my claim. The first sign of a cult was 'cut ties with families and friends'. I live not far from the Pa. border,we go there quite frequently,in this one town just about every home and business is covered in Trump propaganda.

 Upstate New Yorker here. Sadly I can confirm this, the shear amount of ignorance from people up here that have never left the state or even the county they live in is truly profound. I’ve never seen so many poor uneducated people who consistently vote against their own interest, as I have seen here. That’s even with living in the rural south for years.

 Unfortunately New York gets misrepresented because of NYC. The vast majority of NY is rural and I feel like it way bigger than most people realize. But even still with NYC being so large it’s seen as blue, but pretty much the whole rest of the state is red. Buy it: Perfect Among Us Impostor Trust No One Shirt Home:  Handstee

 The most overtly racist talk I have ever heard (a discussion on interracial dating) was in upstate NY. And yes, it seemed there were Confederate flags all over the place. The real divide is rural/urban. Whether a state is red or blue usually depends on whether it's mostly urban or rural. Obviously that's an over simplification, but it's way more accurate that the idea of red states and blue states. Buy it: Good Boo Poop 2020 Vintage Shirt Home:  Handstee

 The thing is my friend(I still consider him one)is not uneducated,he's actually pretty intelligent. I also wouldn't consider him poor,he has a car repair garage and his wife is a teacher. Maybe not destitute, but if his wife's a teacher, then she at least is underpaid. A situation likely to get worse under 4 more years of Trump. If we dont all get wiped out by a plague or natural disaster. But we'll be beautiful, wonderful, most fantastic corpses.

 Same here but that doesn’t mean anything. You can still read and educate yourself, as Im sure you have based on the way you speak. These people are literally enabling the destruction of America and actually the world by actively ignoring climate change which will be 100x worse than covid. It's the same game as covid, deny, deny, until it's too late, then say you did everything you could.

 I have attended a few semesters of college, but still hold my own in discussions with friends who have master’s degrees and they seek my opinion on matters because I have a lot more life experience. They don't teach you life skills in grad school, they teach you specialized knowledge about a particular subject.

 Absolutely. Can I teach them things they didn’t know and wouldn’t figure out? Yes. I have a different way of looking at things because I didn’t get shaped by the education system. Im pretty sure Covid just proved the American Education System is a glorified daycare. We need the kids in classrooms so the parents can make the rich richer. Buy it: Premium I Just Want To Bake Stuff Listen Christmas Songs Matching Xmas T-Shirt Home:  Handstee

 I only wish to point out that the education system (at least in America, I don’t know about Canada) isn’t really about educating people anyway. It’s about how well you can memorize, regurgitate, purge, and repeat. I have attended a few semesters of college, but still hold my own in discussions with friends who have master’s degrees and they seek my opinion on matters because I have a lot more life experience, and applied knowledge. Am I technically less educated?  Buy it: Pretty I Like Football And Maybe 3 People Quote Shirt  Home:  Handstee

 I'm poor and uneducated and I feel no sympathy for them. The strength of one's character should not be contingent upon a bank account or level of schooling. Just reading your comments, you are obviously not an idiot, and probably could get a ged with about a weeks worth of reading. If you are under 25, you still could go to university or a tech school and up your earning potential. Buy it: Good  Love Bryan Adams Signature Shirt  Home:  Handstee

 My mother has one too. But she's also super racist. I feel a little bit of pity for these people who got sucked up into this insanity. People are easily manipulated, especially those who are uneducated or poor. And that's what the GOP wants, brainwashing the poor and uneducated to vote against their own interests to make the GOP and their rich friends money.

 As they walked away, I laid out a pink blanket instead of a blue one, and set Nubbins in the center. For the last time, his head flopped back, and his little flippers flipped up. That's when it hit me. Nubbins has been adopted. There will be no more Nubbins. A little montage in honor of the doll began to play in my head. There he was being tossed across the adoption center by Jenny. There was the time Carla had accidentally rocked on him with rocking chair, and a crowd gasping as he tumbled onto a marble floor.

 While I wasn't exactly Nubbins's best friend, I wasn't about to write Stupid on his birth certificate. Why don't we try calling him-- Just name the baby Veronica, her mother interrupted. I scribbled Veronica in the name section of the baby bracelet and birth certificate and then I handed the paperwork to the mother. Buy it: Good 2020 The Year We Stayed Home T-Shirt Home:  Handstee

 And because Nubbins was for display purposes only, he didn't have an incubator like the other babies. Instead, he was kept in a cupboard. This was especially disturbing, because Nubbins had a knack for looking realistically dead. So when you'd open the cupboard, you'd find him slumped over onto his enormous head, with his arms flopped behind him like he died in a yoga class.

 They had been molded together making it look like it had flippers instead of hands. As if that weren't bad enough, it had curly red hair, scary green eyes, and its head weighed at least five pounds more than all the other babies' heads. As a result, when you lifted the baby, its head would automatically flop back, and its little flippers would flip up like a monster baby. Which is how the doll earned its nickname. We called it Nubbins. Buy it: Perfect Grinch Hand Holding Weed Mistlestoned Christmas Sweater Shirt  Home:  Handstee

 As the last one maybe he got more human attention than usual though because the people working at the shelter only had to focus on him. The display baby doll is on display for a reason. It could not be sold. Something terrible happened in the factory on the day of its birth, because the dolls fingers were not like the other babies.  Buy it: Good Girls Flower Yes I Am The Crazy Book Lady Shirt Home:  Handstee

 For various reasons my mother had seven cats in her house at once, and same thing happened. And once cats start marking, they're very unlikely to stop. Never had a cat (dog owner) but this image of someone sipping piping hot coffee while two cats go at it having a blast, just made me smile.

 Well, the reason she was even looking was because we had recently had a stray show up at our house, so those became our 2nd and 3rd cats. A few years later my grandmother passed and we got her cat, so we had 4 cats in the house. And that's how the literal pissing match started.

 Cats are better in multiples, she chose wisely. My wife loves them, but she's never had to experience a single cat - they just come to her for pets. When I had my first cat he expected pets and 24/7 entertainment from me. It was great for a few hours, but I quickly realized he needed a buddy to play with so he only needed me for food and pets. Much better when they can run and tussle in the early morning and I get to drink coffee while watching how crazy they play.

 Maybe someone fell in love with and adopted the last two dogs, so at least they weren't alone. OR, they had an adoption event and the last few dogs were all adopted around the same time by various people. Maybe some rich bastard just adopted all 70 at once to run free and happy and all together with a full time staff to love and cuddle and pet and play all day every day with them.

 People stuck at home due to Covid and bored/lonely. I'd like to think this is human kindness in action, but in reality, it's forced kindness due to human emotional/companionship needs. I just generally thought that with people home more, they finally felt that they commit the time to properly training/acclimating a new dog to their home.

 I'm in the eastern ontario / ottawa region and there are lots of bald eagles and golden eagles here.

 Being educated in the UK you'd end up with the bizarre idea that it was mostly a war between Britain and Germany, in France it was mostly a matter of the Vichy state and its interactions with the French people etc... The whole idea of lebensraum from the beginning was that the Germans were going to wipe clean and then settle Eastern Europe, never Britain, never France, never Denmark.

 There are groups of young Russians trying to locate the batlle lines, retriving the bodies of German and Russian soldiers and returning them to their countries. I cant seem to find it atm. Very interesting to watch. The eastern front was just a fucking horror show. I don’t get how someone can go through Stalingrad or Leningrad and be a functioning human being afterwards.

 Read about the siege of sevastopol, after the soviets finally gave the order to pull out of the city a few thousand soldiers stayed behind buy time. Used the bodies of the dead as fortifications, middle of summer, fought with gas masks on.

 I think they did that at first but then just started burning bodies, throwing them down grain silos and sewers (which people were still living/fighting in), and the disease became just as prevalent as the snow. Part of what made the encirclement in November so bad. The body count disposal logistics became unmanageable.

 The battle of Stalingrad lasted over 6 months so it’s not like either side had to bury a million bodies all at once. Depending on the circumstances either mass graves were used or more individual graves could be used if circumstances allowed. Typically bodies would only be left to rot if they couldn’t be retrieved without seriously risking someone’s life. Buy it: Nice I Like Beer And Hunting And Maybe 3 People Shirt Home:  Handstee

 I mean, yeah they get shit for surrendering in WW2 but after that much of your country's population per capita being killed only about 20 years earlier? I don't really blame them for wanting to avoid a repeat of that. You hear about these insane battles like this one, but no one ever mentions what happens after the fact. Did they hand bury a million people? Leave them out to decompose? Buy it: Happy I Only Use Dark Ide Because Light Attracts Bugs Cat Vintage Shirt  Home:  Handstee

 And some kept fighting even after they where defeated cuz they knew what soviet captivity meant. Netflix has a dramatized documentary on this. Historians there agree Germany had already lost by the time the bitter winter started. After that it was more about the inhumanities on both sides as they both were ordered to stay no matter what. This is the place urban warfare was invented as well. Buy it: Perfect I Put The Lit In Literature Shirt  Home:  Handstee

 And it wasn't over for those Germans after the Russians retook Stalingrad. The surviving Germans were sent on a death march or packed in trains like cattle to prison camps. Russians didn't have the resources (or the interest) to care for 90k captured Germans so many died of overwork, malnutrition, exposure, etc. Only 5k managed to return to Germany alive.

 People on both sides thought the war would be won for their respective side before Christmas. I don’t think anybody could predict it would go on for so long. Well, Phoenix Arizona has 1.7 million people. So imagine all of Phoenix dying over 5 months from war and temperature .

 It wasn’t necessarily a bad strategy but Germany ended up over committing resulting in a roughly 1:1 exchange of casualties while fighting against the British Empire, French Empire, Italian and Russian Empire simultaneously. Eventually the entente won the war because they could replace their losses and draw on nearly the entire world for raw materials while the Central Powers couldn’t.

 The German goal at Verdun wasn’t even to break through the Entente lines but rather capture a place so morally significant to the French that they would expend hundreds of thousands of men trying to reclaim it. The German goal was too bleed the France dry rather than to outright beat them. It was also being fought simultaneously with the Somme and with the Brusilov Offensive.  Buy it: Awesome Jesus Take The Wheel Ugly Christmas Shirt Home:  Handstee

 Old German guy used to come into my fathers shop that fought in Russia. Said every-time they’d arrive somewhere, set up, get shelled and by the time they left there was no more white snow, everything was black with dirt and ash. He had a piece of shrapnel from one shell cut straight through him but it was so hot it cauterised the wound instantly. Buy it: Awesome Just A Girl Who Loves Wolves Shirt  Home:  Handstee

 Don’t invade most places. It’s not just Russia. Colin Powel knew the US could never win in Afghanistan because of the terrain for one reason.

  I read from Dan Carlins HC history, the “Great Plains” of Russia in summers could get blistering hot 100+ degrees Fahrenheit, with not a tree in sight for shade. The only nation that was successful in Invading Russia was the Polish common wealth. Poland placed two tzars on the Moscow throne in few quick successions however after a short time the tsars were removed due pro catholic politics of the polish king.
