DnD Central / Re: Georgev Floyd brother made me shake my head
Your lot going through with Brexit makes me shake my head. Economic and political suicide. You all retained some soft power within the EU; now you all are on par with French Polynesia in terms of power and prestige on the world stage.

DnD Central / Re: Money dumped in vast amounts for space?
I know Howie is talking about the Space Force, but cryptocurrency investments are doing quite well right now.

How I regret not accepting those 20 Bitcoin that kindly Scot I met at a party offered me back in 2011. :(

The surest way is probably by getting yourself elected to the legislature. Or maybe better the governor.

I intend to keep up a campaign to remove the Dominionist phrase, “In God We Trust” from it.
What would you replace it with? More stars to that spot?

“E Pluribus Unum” (“Out of Many, One”), the original motto of the US. It fits what the state said they were looking for; a “unifying” flag. I’ve emailed all members of state Congress as well as the Governor, Lt. Governor, etc, pointing out that IGWT is not unifying and was basically told if I didn’t like it to leave. I expected that retort.

There isn’t much to do in the Delta, which is where the video was filmed. It’s the poorest region in the country, poorer than Appalachia.

There is a good bit to do in Oxford, on the Gulf Coast, Jackson, as well as Southaven and Tupelo.

DnD Central / Re: Another groaning lock down in Scotland
Surely you are aware that Brexit is going to cause the current Union of 4 nations to break apart, Mr. Howie?

Little England will finally happen, the Scottish Nationalists will get their wish, and the IRA will be and no doubt is ( @SmileyFaze ) most pleased that Ireland will again be united as One?

All this because your Tories and uber-left Labour voted for that most remarkable gun to your current nation’s collective head. Now THAT, is head-shaking.

Also it's quite odd how common curfews seem to be in America (pre-covid). I consider curfews a symbol of the nazi occupation, a breach of our proud constitutions.
Well as you may have noticed, the Right had attempted and continues to try to attempt a coup and install Herr Trumpenfuhrer as President for life. Thankfully sanity has prevailed thus far.

As such, the Right has lost all credibility when they cotton about “freedom and liberty.

As a matter of fact, this was seen at their recent “Million MAGA March” (12,000 showed up).

(Can’t post the pic as apparently it’s too large.) Anyway, the nazi swatika was present.

DnD Central / Re: Credit union waste of time no income!
I am currently considering changing from a local bank that has recently become much more corporate (bought out by a corporation) to the local credit union. Interest rates on a HYSA are 1.8%, much better than my current 0.25%.

My employer has several gov’t contracts so I was deemed essential the one time we locked down.

I have about 10 books I’ve bought this year that I’ve been unable to read. Also never have caught up on sleep what with having logged 875 Overtime hours this year. I wouldn’t mind two weeks of lockdown. Our citizens have mostly given up on precautions, ergo the dramatic rise in cases in MS.

@Colonel Rebel Looks like an awesome governor and a fantastic state. Once the pandemic is over, I may give it a visit on my way to Louisiana, which I heard is a never-before-seen swamp and dump.
Let me know if you are traveling through Oxford and I’ll buy you a beer/coffee. :cheers:

New Orleans is nice, Baton Rouge is ok, both for Louisiana. Oxford is quite nice, as are a few places in this state.

The ppl of both are just bound and determined that whom ever slaps ppl upside the head with the Bible enough must be right, and Reeves posts about it or speaks about it with every breath, so...
