I think I saw a documentary about this, but checked out part way through cause it was over 2 hours long. Might go back and finish it now that I'm reminded of it
Now this sounds super fascinating, and based as fuck.You don't have to wonder; look at an example here (see end). A corrupt sheriff in Athens, Tennessee was stopped by armed citizens (former servicemen) before he could commit election fraud in 1946. "The Battle of Athens" lives on in memory.
I'm mostly interested in the 2nd amendment thinking about how my own country lived through a brutal 32 year dictatorship that was only overthrown during the Asian financial crisis, when things simply got too fucked up for anyone to bear. And even that collapse claimed possibly thousands of lives.
Makes me wonder how it'd all play out if the people had pew pews during that whole regime

Not even Kewpie mayo? You're putting McChicken mayo on fried rice?

That said. Take care of yourself, and school gets easier.

I think the worst thing about the education system is that they try to treat every kid like they all have the same potential instead of honing in where they might actually flourish in society. But I guess that's more of a civilization issue because of the prestige we put on some jobs more than others. Nobody wants their kid to just be a cog in the machine even if they might fit there and be happy.

The fact that Subway needs to hurry up and close. They are a freaking terrible company. Spend the most for the worst food ever. I've seen some shops with their ham turning green. Yoga mat bread and "eat fresh" - obvious lies...I hate the company and food.
I prefer Stargate SG1 personally.
I spent a year in uni, largest amount of time I've ever wasted on a single poor choice. The teachers didn't teach, they dictated what was and wasn't correct, and if you dared question them, bad grades weren't the only punishments they meted out. Most of my "colleagues" had the same capacity for critical-thinking as a garden salad, and went out of their way to ostracize you if you didn't conform to the same stupidity they accepted and believed in.
I made the mistake once, of correcting a professor on something that was easily verified, this being a week into my very first semester. It was never forgotten or forgiven.
Four months in I made the mistake of pointing out numerous logical inconsistencies several of my classmates wielded like blunt instruments during a class debate, and once an observer went through the trouble of "fact-checking", which means they scrolled through various sources biased to their preconceived views, and couldn't find a way to counter my argument, again, they never forgot and they never forgave.
I was stubborn though, so I stupidly stuck around for a second semester even after the train-wreck of the first one. I realized after this that I had "outed myself" as not "one of them," and I was treated accordingly. The only reason no physical harm came to me, is because of my extensive martial arts training, something that can be easily verified by searching up my name and reading of my participation and victory in numerous state championships, before I quit competing that is.
They were loud and obnoxious, but too afraid to be anything more than that.
Two semesters was more than enough, and I went and found good work elsewhere that didn't require a degree. It's hard, but it can be found. Though i will say, I was lucky in some regards. I knew people who knew people.

Up here in Canada we got Mr.Sub, blows Subway out of the water in every metric. I honestly don't get how they have chains up here because they're not even cheap anymore.
Isn't Subway the largest fast-food chain globally?
