#edit replace with commentary on how furries are bad written like a human supremacist from deus ex

>>379828
#edit replace with "sorry, what i meant to say there was," followed by the poetic waxing about bestial paws and snouts written by andrew hussie in the comic homestuck

>>379831
nah i like you

>>379840
alright i'll set up some dick ouija foreplay come over

that probably sounds really explicit to anyone who hasn't read homestuck lol

also hii saeki

*æ

>>379849
idk what scrobbles are but poppin
half a hundred nearly is solid progress. getting the initial few can be hard

>>379853
oh based

>>379895
what LoD you want on that question :p

>>379902

and now, i am officially doxxed when the website is live later

>>379913
that's alright, i'm used to negativity. i have a plan and this is all worked into it.
what i'm more interested in is what you think are bad ideas here?

>>379918
like, to put into writing. in this context, legally codifying something means putting it in the laws, "on the books" basically
so codified in the constitution just means amended into it basically

>>379920
why would i ever not pay artists who weren't just volunteering stuff
i would even pay ones who just volunteer stuff if the resources were to hand

>>379925
*collab campaign music

you still get paid

i just cannot rap verse i haven't edited yk

jk i am not rapping campaign speeches
(i am rapping let's be clear i am just not running for office)

i actually intend to accomplish this without ever running for any office
just getting a following

>>379937
okay okay i am like dead in the middle of homestuck reread but i promise it'll be the next thing i read lol

>>379934
nice are they cute

or functional
or both

are they good shoes is what i'm asking
are they an archterpiece
do they like, have that nice shiny look new shoe got
are the laces snug
tell us about the uhhh... stitching?

oh lol

well i am too lazy to scroll in the "load entire thread" which makes my mobile browser do a little dance
but i believe you i hope they are nice lol

>>379953
it's actually quite usable and i used mobile 4chan back to high school (never with an app) so i am used to the crunchy lol
i do have to disable the player sometimes as it nukes my battery life tho

>>379955
yeeee

and some extra stuff probably like, additional things for childcare and retain food stamps which works really well, initiatives to lower drug prices and incentivize housing construction
that's all what i'd push on congress (or my president would at my beck and call) after

>>379952
noting this btw i will respond when you finish
based of you to break it down and analyze :]

>>379960
i am like when marco rubio started talking about the government agencies he was gonna abolish and couldn't remember all of them lol
i have carefully drafted plans but i need to go back over my work for the sake of off the cuff stuff

>>379962
<3

oh there's also a bit copied from the utah constitution that mandates all laws (except budgeting) be single subject, with a clear title and a summary voters can read, not like bundles of bullshit with riders for every interest group in every state

>>379966
like chat is lagging or you misspelled laffing lol
>anarcho syndicalism
i am somewhat of a mutualist and my goals outside politics involve attempting to build a viable co-op with an integrated union from day one in the tech industry, and make a conglomerate of it
so we are somewhat aligned
plus politically i am on minarchism. i am not opposed to anarchist goals when they don't clash with free enterprise, but i just don't think anarchist government is like, achievable at least any time soon at all. tyrants will rise in a vacuum. you need a strong but strongly limited state imo
that's why i am a constitutionalist

oh i forgot ANOTHER core thing man i am not on it this morning
>abolish prison slavery, death penalties, and life sentencing, mandate sentencing be personalized to rehabilitate and prevent crime, and that incarceration sentences be given only in instances of a threat to public safety
and another
>extend 4th amendment privacy rights to cover digital data, need a warrant to do what the nsa does without them and also cops often these days

>>379974
it sounds like a lot but that's the point
it's everything that needs done and needed done awhile ago, i call it 40% of a new constitution sometimes
but it's also a perfectly simple goal and demand
PASS THIS ONE BILL, NOW

fucking flies mating in ny

>>379976
*car

>>379977
he's so me they were right lole

geez your internet connection is being haunted by ghosts or something sorry sæki lol
>>379981
WHOA i want those shoes those are sick

>>379985
your libpol connection idk lol
libpol's css

honestly i wonder how hard it would be to code an android app for libpol
like i wouldn't need access to the source code right just what the web connection outputs and a ui layer
i feel like this site could really use an app for smoother play of all its features

i really should get a modern iphone so i can like test xcode projects too

just soooo pricey

for daily driving i am too locked down by samsung on both phone and laptop
need my pen

like i just use the pen constantly, it's integral to my phone at this point lol

but an iPhone would be useful for yk selling things on the appstore (or free things but any project i want to put there)

ig i could probably emulate an iphone on my pc and use my phone for input testing somehow

>>379952
>civil rights
the difference here is the process of judicial review
in the 2010s china aaaaaaalmost established judicial review but went back on it and i think if they did they would have basically become america2
it makes all the difference in the world in a republic, it's like the beating heart of the system of checks and balances
oh yeah i forgor another but there's also codified judicial review in there (that's a small thing, our first EVER supreme court case established it as rock solid precedent, but you know just in case)
>industry requires an unhealthful environment
i mean... does it??? some industries create unhealthy waste but the point is it's a crime and in some sense a tax on the public by the company to dump it into the environment. pay it back.
this mainly in montana and would here work to give citizens better standing in tort lawsuits tho
>land tax is a subsidy to non land intensive industries and a tax on those that occupy large swathes of land
i mean, definitionally yes, but consider what that really is. land is not made by human hands, not a product of any labor or inherited or gifted labor, it's just there, and it's also the only truly finite resource which is why it's not like capital. it belongs equally to all humankind, and in this era the best we can do at that is equally to every citizen of this jurisdiction.
also, economists have studied this particular idea a lot and found that of all forms of taxation it is the most reliable revenue stream and causes the least (in fact no) loss to the economy, and likely stimulates growth by making it unprofitable to squat on undeveloped valuable land, unprofitable to inhabit vast agriculturally useful swathes for less efficient uses like cattle grazing and more profitable to engage in high yield and sustainable agriculture, permaculture that enriches the soil, vertical farming, etc
and it raises an enormous sum of money every year if you use it. nothing else compares to income tax in sheer amount but this, without a huge burden on the economy. wealth tax does but that dries up

this post is now filling my screen so i will write another reply idk my scrollbar isn't working right lol

>>379952
>kill the unproductive
jesus christ lol not happening
but to answer your thoughts on that
people simply, for the most part, want to be productive. people want to do something useful and valuable to the world. when people are given UBI they spend their time advancing their careers more effectively, they work about 10% less on average but pursue education more, pursue more promotions or opportunities to change fields, they are more likely to consider taking time for family and children, it's all things that benefit the economy
and we also don't need infinite growth, or exponential growth, like we currently seem obssessed with angling towards. as we go into space that's still possible too, but right now we produce enough and can even without exploitation of toxifying our environment or outsourcing slavery still produce enough, to feed and house and health up everybody, and still have a lot of surplus floating all around. so there's no good reason not to. people are their most productive when they're supported and financially stable.
>don't trust the territorials as citizens
i... i am going to have to argue against this coherently at some point, but i don't have the fucks to entertain this today
you seem kinda racist dog
>don't trust the tribes
okay i will make a cold rationalist argument at you on this
for one, it looks REALLY good to the whole world if we do this. like, everybody will love it. two, we already have these reservations laid out, it's just that we've turned them into these weird hellish dependent slums where everyone is drunk and women disappear and the police are bad when they do anything etc. they could be like, our own hong kong little laboratory societies doing their own things, X several hundred. we should take advantage of that. because just rolling over and erasing them is not gonna fly that'll upset everyone all at once for a variety of reasons aside from being evil.
this is also doubly non-negotiable because it's personal for me, i am like the evillest colonizer lol. on my dad's side i am descended very distantly from a guy who was instrumental

oops hit send
was almost finished
>>380036
cont
on my dad's side i am very distantly (but directly) descended from a guy who was instrumental in selling 1/3 of the cherokee nation to the united states and like its downfall kinda bigly and then went off with his government pension and married a white woman
and on my mom's side i am the product of a forced adoption of a native kid into a white family who went on to marry into an irish family and then kill himself because of his messed up life and leave behind a white daughter who had me
i feel a strong personal responsibility to make things right for native americans

like if i get political power and don't fix things for natives then when i die i go straight to hell and all my most racist ancestors waterboard me forever or something

>>380071
yeah that's true. i need to face down this exact kind of argument with a purely cold take like i just gave on why it's smart economics to help the poor and encourage the development of the reservations
sometimes it's just like
i hear someone basically repeating the illegal aliens doctrine that justified not making the brown colonies states in the first place at me
and i just wanna go
<AHHHH SHUT UP GUAMANIANS KEEP JOINING THE MILITARY AND CHANTING AMERICAS PRAISE PUERTO RICANS KEEP VOTING TO JOIN THE UNION THEY ARE ALL FUCKING AMERICA AHHHHHH SHUT THE FUCK UPPPPPPP
the only exception is tokelau which is a weird case of an island we took out of a country of 4 islands to turn into a fuckin palm plantation and now i think their descendants' private resort
which there is a small clause, immediately ceding back to the original owners (currently a dependency of new zealand)

>>380110
they have that option
the bill stipulates that it be a two question referendum
>do you want to be a state or not
>if not, do you want to be independent or retain current status

>>380105
guam and the rest of the mariana islands are american territories in the asia pacific
also the samoa islands
and olohega (typod earlier) part of the nation of tokelau

>>380122
oh lole

also the us virgin islands
and not all samoa just american samoa lol

weirdly, i think american samoa reunifying with samoa would make sense
but they fucking LOVE america
they might vote republican if we made them a state lol
they would vote for statehood

honestly if trump wasn't so racist bound he would make big gains for the GOP by tying it deeper to hispanic americans and like, making samoa and puerto rico into states as a strat lol
he could demolish the democratic party that way but they're too far gone to do it now i think

>>380184
i took three years of it and hung around some spanish speakers
i used to be like, mooostly fluent, but i've lost it. i can hold awkward stilted chats but not much more, i need to go back to studying it
i've been distracted on that front lately as i am trying to also learn japanese and mandarin
later russian and arabic but those are wayyy backburnered

yeah like if i went and spent a year in a spanish speaking place rn i would struggle a little at first and be fluent by the end

>>380193
that's true, but not a bad thing either. you'd also see more spanish on the mainland. it'd be just more contact between the two, as one, as it should be if they're not going to be independent.
and frankly i think it's a good step towards a future north american union too (though, god, trump has set that project back DECADES and i am seething about it)

>>380198
yeah true as a southerner especially (lived elsewhere as well) i see a ton of spanish here, and like that's what made me somewhat fluent and now not entirely out of practice
honestly i kinda think all americans would benefit from learning Spanish and it's silly that people whine about this state of affairs
multilingual societies always thrive throughout history

>>380204
that's a fair point, attracting or at least nourishing what is already there. i think about norman societies (especially sicily) or abbasid spain a lot for this context. like, you have this region of potentially at-odds ethnic groups, but if you create an environment where they can coexist and all enjoy a level of economic prosperity what it yields is an explosion in science and art, and then an increase in diversity (like, expelled jews fleeing there and stuff in those historical cases)
