Anyone else still not trust bread that is more than a week old?

It reliably started molding at this point as a kid and now they've put some sort of unholy chemical preservatives in the bread to keep it fresh. I just ate some bread that was a few weeks old and it looked, smelled, and tasted fine. It feels wrong.

How did Trump start a war, having easily the best military in the world, and lose and is having us surrender? Is he stupid?

After months of "we have a deal coming to end the war, trust me bro" they're saying now that we have to give Iran $300 billion in reparations..."reconstruction funds"....to end the war so that they will reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Now Iran has an even more extreme leadership and will keep their nuclear programs, we remove sanctions, and we will give them back money we frozen in accounts.

Trump started this war with no strategic plan for victory other than hoping that the Iranian people rise up and overthrow their government for him that has killed tens of thousands of them for protesting and while they are being attacked by their nemeses and live happily ever after.

Oh also he blew through half of our supplies of missiles and we took other losses

I'm old enough to remember when before this election people in this sub thought the pre-2024 inflation rate was a failed economy

Also the "Biden Economy" inflation rate started with Trump in large part because it was actually the COVID global economy in general. But once Biden stepped in office people had selective memories. Just like they have selective memories and awareness still.

Tomorrow I'll get up nice and early, take a scroll down over to the sub... and if you don't have my upvotes for me, I'll... crack your fucking head wide open in front of everybody in the sub. And just about the time that I'm coming out of a 3 day ban, hopefully, you'll be coming out of your coma

Assassin combat gameplay issue

I'm playing on higher difficulty and have hit a point where it's gotten really stale. I've been trying to do dual wield and I'm unable to stay in a fight. I end up just holding heavy attack and trying to get in for the hit and dodge back out over and over. I can't take hits, which is to be expected with lighter armor, so I dodge a lot. But that means I usually don't have time to throw light attacks. I put points in to parry. It's definitely hard, but even when I block I take an unsustainable amount of damage, even with the damage reduction talent. I find it's also really hard to time a parry in this game with the variety of enemies in particular and with the margin for error being so low.

I like dodging around but I feel like I'm doing something wrong being stuck fighting this way. It's hard to practice parrying because every enemy has different timings and honestly the moment to parry can feel unintuitive, at least to me, even with the talent to get the extra .3 seconds.

I've still not gotten good enough at sneaking to get near most enemies to open with a sneak attack, either, unless it's with a bow but I'm not specced as an archer. I just started act 2 and have 10 or 11 points in perception with something like 8 points in dex and endurance with a few points in strength. I've been using a sword/dagger.

Skill issue, doing something wrong, is this just the state of assassin gameplay?

Is it time for blue states being sabotaged by the government to stop paying the federal government taxes when their federal benefits are being stripped?

This administration is openly sabotaging blue states because it wants to see them fail. It's cutting funding to states out of spite and to be punitive over political disagreements that states are well within their rights to have.

Meanwhile, with the exception of Texas and Florida, blue states are bankrolling this nation while red states get more and more and don't charge their residents taxes while expecting more and more benefits being siphoned off of blue states. Red states with less population than a single city in a blue state gets the same amount of senators and more populated blue states get very little representation in the government. 80% of the population in this country is in cities and usually cities are blue.

Enough is enough and we've got to make a power move.

How does Trump start a war with easily the #1 military in the world and still lose within a couple months? Is he stupid?

Imagine losing a war with our military that you entered willingly, spending more than half of our reserves of missiles, and they still have the upper hand strategically with no surrender in sight
