Any party who is this tone deaf on the reality of their own precariousness deserves to be allowed to implode as loudly and ingloriously as they seem determined to attain.
Idiots.

"Hah\nWhite House to Jim Jordan, James Comer: Sorry, but you have to restart your oversight requests\nIn respective letters to Reps. James Comer (R-Ky) and Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), White House Special Counsel Richard Sauber said that the Biden administration had no immediate plans to respond to a slew of records requests that both men made the past several weeks. In those letters, obtained exclusively by POLITICO, Sauber described such requests as constitutionally illegitimate because both Jordan, who is expected to chair the House Judiciary Committee, and Comer, who is expected to head the Oversight Committee, made them before they had any authority to do so.\n“Congress has not delegated such [oversight] authority to individual members of Congress who are not committee chairmen, and the House has not done so under its current Rules,” wrote Sauber, one of the White House’s top oversight lawyers.",
">\n\nThe administration isn't \"slowing\" investigations; these congressmen don't have authority yet. They get their 2 years and not a day more from the recent elections. To act as if Jordan should have the Judiciary gavel now is absurd. They haven't even got a presumption speaker yet.",

"Hah\nWhite House to Jim Jordan, James Comer: Sorry, but you have to restart your oversight requests\nIn respective letters to Reps. James Comer (R-Ky) and Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), White House Special Counsel Richard Sauber said that the Biden administration had no immediate plans to respond to a slew of records requests that both men made the past several weeks.

And this is coming from the same Republican Party that didn’t want to investigate the 1/6/21 attack on the Capitol.
The same Republicans that didn’t want to investigate Donald Trump’s administration into its role in the attack on the capital.
Take a good look America, The republican party has no intentions of ever changing its colors. it’s business as usual with them.

"Hah\nWhite House to Jim Jordan, James Comer: Sorry, but you have to restart your oversight requests\nIn respective letters to Reps. James Comer (R-Ky) and Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), White House Special Counsel Richard Sauber said that the Biden administration had no immediate plans to respond to a slew of records requests that both men made the past several weeks.

"Hah\nWhite House to Jim Jordan, James Comer: Sorry, but you have to restart your oversight requests\nIn respective letters to Reps.

And in a further twist of the knife, the Biden White House took unusual inspiration for its newly stated oversight posture: former President Donald Trump. In its letters to Comer and Jordan, the White House counsel’s office cited Trump administration legal opinions that Democrats once derided as extreme and undemocratic.
So... that's not great.

When Dems investigate its great, doing their job. If you got nothing to hide, you would cooperate with the investigation. Now that repubs have the power, their investigations are unwarranted and should not be cooperated with?

"Hah\nWhite House to Jim Jordan, James Comer: Sorry, but you have to restart your oversight requests\nIn respective letters to Reps. James Comer (R-Ky) and Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), White House Special Counsel Richard Sauber said that the Biden administration had no immediate plans to respond to a slew of records requests that both men made the past several weeks. In those letters, obtained exclusively by POLITICO, Sauber described such requests as constitutionally illegitimate because both Jordan, who is expected to chair the House Judiciary Committee, and Comer, who is expected to head the Oversight Committee, made them before they had any authority to do so.\n“Congress has not delegated such [oversight] authority to individual members of Congress who are not committee chairmen, and the House has not done so under its current Rules,” wrote Sauber, one of the White House’s top oversight lawyers.",
">\n\nThe administration isn't \"slowing\" investigations; these congressmen don't have authority yet. They get their 2 years and not a day more from the recent elections. To act as if Jordan should have the Judiciary gavel now is absurd. They haven't even got a presumption speaker yet.",
">\n\n\nThey haven't even got a presumption speaker yet.\n\nI volunteer as tribute",
">\n\nThe GOP probably doesn't even see the hypocrisy here",
">\n\nAll they care about is having something to rage against. They don't care who or what. Rage is the whole point.",
">\n\nThat’s not true, sometimes it’s about the cruelty and hurting the right people",
">\n\nWhy would anyone answer a subpoena from a group that refuses to answer them? I’m lost! So should the Democrats hold there own investigation into Trumps children at the same time. Again this congress was elected to address immigration, crime and the economy and have no plans to do anything but obstruct.",

">\n\nNah it’s a reference to how he for sure knew about the sexual abuse and for sure for sure covered it up",

There is no underlying structure to these people. They are just there to keep and hold power and deliver the deregulation and tax cuts, and to keep that in with the judges.\nIf you think about Republicans as being \"monkey wrenches thrown by corporate/Koch America to 1) keep taxes low 2) reduce regulation to help corps make more money 3) stymie progress by the Democratic Party on anything of actual substance/prevent Democrats from using the government for social(ist!) improvements\" then, through that lens, the actions of the GOP make much more sense, at least to me.\nIf we don't treat them seriously, because they have nothing serious to offer, that's the easiest way to minimize them.",

"Hah\nWhite House to Jim Jordan, James Comer: Sorry, but you have to restart your oversight requests\nIn respective letters to Reps. James Comer (R-Ky) and Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), White House Special Counsel Richard Sauber said that the Biden administration had no immediate plans to respond to a slew of records requests that both men made the past several weeks. In those letters, obtained exclusively by POLITICO, Sauber described such requests as constitutionally illegitimate because both Jordan, who is expected to chair the House Judiciary Committee, and Comer, who is expected to head the Oversight Committee, made them before they had any authority to do so.\n“Congress has not delegated such [oversight] authority to individual members of Congress who are not committee chairmen, and the House has not done so under its current Rules,” wrote Sauber, one of the White House’s top oversight lawyers.",
">\n\nThe administration isn't \"slowing\" investigations; these congressmen don't have authority yet. They get their 2 years and not a day more from the recent elections. To act as if Jordan should have the Judiciary gavel now is absurd. They haven't even got a presumption speaker yet.",
">\n\n\nThey haven't even got a presumption speaker yet.\n\nI volunteer as tribute",
">\n\nThe GOP probably doesn't even see the hypocrisy here",
">\n\nAll they care about is having something to rage against. They don't care who or what. Rage is the whole point.",
">\n\nThat’s not true, sometimes it’s about the cruelty and hurting the right people",
">\n\nWhy would anyone answer a subpoena from a group that refuses to answer them? I’m lost! So should the Democrats hold there own investigation into Trumps children at the same time. Again this congress was elected to address immigration, crime and the economy and have no plans to do anything but obstruct.",
">\n\nThe GOP wants a vengeance tour. They will hold everything up to get revenge on them getting a black eye from TFG ..",
">\n\n\ngetting a black eye from TFG\n\nOooh I got this one. The Football Game?",
">\n\nThe Farting Gremlin?",
">\n\nThat Fucking Guy™️",
">\n\nGym Jordan usually likes to remain silent when there are allegations of wrongdoing.",
">\n\nDoes it make r/politics better for everyone if you refer to him as Gym Jordan? I legit hate the dude, but are we all perpetually in 8th grade? He was a wrestling coach for a team with a history of sexual abuse. Is it a joke that they were abused?",
">\n\nNah it’s a reference to how he for sure knew about the sexual abuse and for sure for sure covered it up",
">\n\nWow, they got some balls making a complaint about the White House obstructing an investigation after trump",
">\n\nYou can't obstruct something that hasn't begun yet.",
">\n\nAmazing that Gym Jordan gets to investigate anybody.",
">\n\nDems should do the same in the Senate--run investigations of actual crimes committed by house gopers on 1/6",
">\n\nThey're just hoping to complete their collection of Hunter Biden pics.",
">\n\nAny bets on when the Hunter cock NFTs start circling the GOP turd bowl?",
">\n\n\nRepublicans rage\n\nIt is, after all, a Thursday.",
">\n\nCan you imagine how miserable these fucks are? They’re like suburbanites that overpay for a home because “it’s safe,” But then they buy a ton of guns and security cameras because they’re scared of thief’s.",
">\n\nNone of these fuckers at the federal level, with maybe the exception of MTG, are actually true believers in it. It's just theatre. It is how they are able to change what they are mad about every 5 minutes, because you have to keep moving topics to keep up with the right-wing anger machines. There is no underlying structure to these people. They are just there to keep and hold power and deliver the deregulation and tax cuts, and to keep that in with the judges.\nIf you think about Republicans as being \"monkey wrenches thrown by corporate/Koch America to 1) keep taxes low 2) reduce regulation to help corps make more money 3) stymie progress by the Democratic Party on anything of actual substance/prevent Democrats from using the government for social(ist!) improvements\" then, through that lens, the actions of the GOP make much more sense, at least to me.\nIf we don't treat them seriously, because they have nothing serious to offer, that's the easiest way to minimize them.",
">\n\n\nAnd then who can forget all the bashful hateful rhetoric Trump had on numerous Democratic congress members all 4 years.\n\nBaby that's just locker room talk.",
">\n\nTime for rightwing drama queens to start pissing away taxpayer money again. It gets worse every time they do this.",
">\n\nIsn't this just “Benghazi” again? I mean, just dust off the old playbook because it sorta worked the first time? Remember McCarthy lost the seat to Ryan because he admitted that the Hillghazi hearings were simply designed to discredit her? Is it really just “own the libs?” This shit is ridiculous, we have problems, the world has problems, we got some shit to do! What about governing, fixing infrastructure, immigration, healthcare?by the time it all wears itself out I’ll be dead, but this is really WTF land we are in. I don’t give a fucking shit what Hunter Biden did, and I should but don’t care what Jared Kushner, Ivanka, Don Jr did either. We have the ability to fix this shit, can we at least start trying?",
">\n\nOh fuck, did you just use the G word in relation to Republicans? They don’t have a clue how to governor, at least in any aspect towards a functioning society. They didn’t teach that to their party members. At least since the ‘90s they have only operated as obstructionists. Their operating strategy is, “Don’t let the Dems succeed.” Followed by, “If we don’t try at all, we can’t get blamed for anything.”",
">\n\nI know I should’ve been following this, but what exactly are they investigating? Personal email accounts used on a laptop from Benghazi or something?",
">\n\n\nwhat exactly are they investigating?\n\nHunter Biden's penis. Thoroughly. That dick is hiding something important.\n--Laptop Truthers",
">\n\nThey do seem to want it pretty bad.",
">\n\nYes Kevin, we got the requests. You'll be the first to know when we respond. No, I can't tell you exactly when that might be. But in the meanwhile enjoy those pictures of Hunter Biden's sweaty hog that you guys seem so taken with. Talk soon. Bye bye.",
">\n\nNothing gives them a nostalgia trip like seeing a big old dick that likely had some coke snorted off it once or twice. It reminds them of college.",
">\n\nI'm too lazy to go through Gym and Comer's past tweets but I bet they defended the trump admin from Dem investigations.",
">\n\nSo, let me get this right. Jordan is threatening to use the power of a subpoena….when he ignored the one the Jan 6 committee sent him? Why would anyone submit to his subpoena, when he did not?",
">\n\nRepublicans attempting to assert an authority before it's legally available to them is on point for their party. Let 'em wait. Then, after the \"requests\" show up in January, assert that they (GOP) have sent requests with no legislative purpose and tell them to go run to the Supreme Court for each request.",
">\n\nGet lost. Lmao",
">\n\nGet out your tiny violins and rosin up the bow",
">\n\nBy God, I’d make them subpoena everything, and I’d reference Gym Jordan’s failure to respond to subpoenas as the reason I’m doing the same.",
">\n\n\nJordan has already sent a slew of letters to the administration outlining documents and interview requests he wants next year as Judiciary Committee chair, warning potential witnesses that while he’d prefer voluntary testimony, he’s willing to use a “compulsory process if necessary.” \n\nSays the guy who ignored his duty to testify about January 6.",
">\n\nKevin doesn’t have votes and the GOP wants to investigate. It’s going to be a shit show so let them try whatever they want",
">\n\nInvestigate Biden.... for what, exactly...? Do they even know?",
">\n\nSeveral years of Whitewater turned up a blowjob. Who knows how deep the depravity goes here.",
">\n\nThere will be zero sympathy for the republicans while democrats slow the process down. After what has happened (and continues to this day), I don't give a damn anymore. They are going to try and paint democrats as this evil entity because they do not plan on bending over. Well, republicans you lost all credibility and ground to stand on when you chose to defend insurectionist and corruption over this country.\nOh and remember how trump repeatedly attempted to and failed to use executive privilege because you know... he's not the president anymore. Well Biden can and I'm sure if needed, he will. Ask me 2 years ago I would javelin said be transparent as possible but republicans do not care to govern at all, so why bother giving them any benefit of the doubt.",
">\n\nDon't go to a single subpoena. If the court finally orders you, go and say \"executive privilege\" to everything.",
">\n\nYeah no more Hillary level professionalism… 11 hour hero is what she was.\nLooking at her like she was a criminal but all the while those guys were just that … criminals",
">\n\nAny party who is this tone deaf on the reality of their own precariousness deserves to be allowed to implode as loudly and ingloriously as they seem determined to attain.\nIdiots. \n(grabs popcorn)",
">\n\nThe Republicans, had they any integrity, would be investigating themselves.",
">\n\nDidn't Jim refuse several congressional subpoena? Why does he think other people are going to play by the rules he is ignoring?",

">\n\nKarma comes to mind",
">\n\nTo be clear, they are simply making the Republicans follow the rules. As Santos is proving, Republicans don't got no rules.",
">\n\nAnd this is coming from the same Republican Party that didn’t want to investigate the 1/6/21 attack on the Capitol.\nThe same Republicans that didn’t want to investigate Donald Trump’s administration into its role in the attack on the capital. \nTake a good look America, The republican party has no intentions of ever changing its colors. it’s business as usual with them.",
">\n\nFlexing their hypocrisy real hard.",
">\n\nAfter 4 years of executive privilege bullshit coming from their golden cow, they are outraged? Every single one of them can go fuck themselves.",
">\n\nI don’t care about their rage against things like this. I only care if Republicans are interested in good governance, and you should too. The only thing that is going to get republicans to do hood things for the American people is if we all demand it from them.",

">\n\nThe investigations of Trump?",
">\n\nWhy don’t Republicans try to pass something meaningful that will help citizens instead of going on these never ending witch hunts based on nothing more than vengeance, and the fact they have nothing meaningful to offer. What an absolute waste of money, governance, and opportunity",

">\n\n\nRepublicans rage\n\nIt is, after all, a Thursday.",
">\n\nCan you imagine how miserable these fucks are? They’re like suburbanites that overpay for a home because “it’s safe,” But then they buy a ton of guns and security cameras because they’re scared of thief’s.",
">\n\nNone of these fuckers at the federal level, with maybe the exception of MTG, are actually true believers in it. It's just theatre. It is how they are able to change what they are mad about every 5 minutes, because you have to keep moving topics to keep up with the right-wing anger machines. There is no underlying structure to these people. They are just there to keep and hold power and deliver the deregulation and tax cuts, and to keep that in with the judges.\nIf you think about Republicans as being \"monkey wrenches thrown by corporate/Koch America to 1) keep taxes low 2) reduce regulation to help corps make more money 3) stymie progress by the Democratic Party on anything of actual substance/prevent Democrats from using the government for social(ist!) improvements\" then, through that lens, the actions of the GOP make much more sense, at least to me.\nIf we don't treat them seriously, because they have nothing serious to offer, that's the easiest way to minimize them.",
">\n\n\nAnd then who can forget all the bashful hateful rhetoric Trump had on numerous Democratic congress members all 4 years.\n\nBaby that's just locker room talk.",
">\n\nTime for rightwing drama queens to start pissing away taxpayer money again. It gets worse every time they do this.",
">\n\nIsn't this just “Benghazi” again? I mean, just dust off the old playbook because it sorta worked the first time? Remember McCarthy lost the seat to Ryan because he admitted that the Hillghazi hearings were simply designed to discredit her? Is it really just “own the libs?” This shit is ridiculous, we have problems, the world has problems, we got some shit to do! What about governing, fixing infrastructure, immigration, healthcare?by the time it all wears itself out I’ll be dead, but this is really WTF land we are in. I don’t give a fucking shit what Hunter Biden did, and I should but don’t care what Jared Kushner, Ivanka, Don Jr did either. We have the ability to fix this shit, can we at least start trying?",
">\n\nOh fuck, did you just use the G word in relation to Republicans? They don’t have a clue how to governor, at least in any aspect towards a functioning society. They didn’t teach that to their party members. At least since the ‘90s they have only operated as obstructionists. Their operating strategy is, “Don’t let the Dems succeed.” Followed by, “If we don’t try at all, we can’t get blamed for anything.”",
">\n\nI know I should’ve been following this, but what exactly are they investigating? Personal email accounts used on a laptop from Benghazi or something?",
">\n\n\nwhat exactly are they investigating?\n\nHunter Biden's penis. Thoroughly. That dick is hiding something important.\n--Laptop Truthers",
">\n\nThey do seem to want it pretty bad.",
">\n\nYes Kevin, we got the requests. You'll be the first to know when we respond. No, I can't tell you exactly when that might be. But in the meanwhile enjoy those pictures of Hunter Biden's sweaty hog that you guys seem so taken with. Talk soon. Bye bye.",
">\n\nNothing gives them a nostalgia trip like seeing a big old dick that likely had some coke snorted off it once or twice. It reminds them of college.",
">\n\nI'm too lazy to go through Gym and Comer's past tweets but I bet they defended the trump admin from Dem investigations.",
">\n\nSo, let me get this right. Jordan is threatening to use the power of a subpoena….when he ignored the one the Jan 6 committee sent him? Why would anyone submit to his subpoena, when he did not?",
">\n\nRepublicans attempting to assert an authority before it's legally available to them is on point for their party. Let 'em wait. Then, after the \"requests\" show up in January, assert that they (GOP) have sent requests with no legislative purpose and tell them to go run to the Supreme Court for each request.",
">\n\nGet lost. Lmao",
">\n\nGet out your tiny violins and rosin up the bow",
">\n\nBy God, I’d make them subpoena everything, and I’d reference Gym Jordan’s failure to respond to subpoenas as the reason I’m doing the same.",
">\n\n\nJordan has already sent a slew of letters to the administration outlining documents and interview requests he wants next year as Judiciary Committee chair, warning potential witnesses that while he’d prefer voluntary testimony, he’s willing to use a “compulsory process if necessary.” \n\nSays the guy who ignored his duty to testify about January 6.",
">\n\nKevin doesn’t have votes and the GOP wants to investigate. It’s going to be a shit show so let them try whatever they want",
">\n\nInvestigate Biden.... for what, exactly...? Do they even know?",
">\n\nSeveral years of Whitewater turned up a blowjob. Who knows how deep the depravity goes here.",
">\n\nThere will be zero sympathy for the republicans while democrats slow the process down. After what has happened (and continues to this day), I don't give a damn anymore. They are going to try and paint democrats as this evil entity because they do not plan on bending over. Well, republicans you lost all credibility and ground to stand on when you chose to defend insurectionist and corruption over this country.\nOh and remember how trump repeatedly attempted to and failed to use executive privilege because you know... he's not the president anymore. Well Biden can and I'm sure if needed, he will. Ask me 2 years ago I would javelin said be transparent as possible but republicans do not care to govern at all, so why bother giving them any benefit of the doubt.",
">\n\nDon't go to a single subpoena. If the court finally orders you, go and say \"executive privilege\" to everything.",
">\n\nYeah no more Hillary level professionalism… 11 hour hero is what she was.\nLooking at her like she was a criminal but all the while those guys were just that … criminals",
">\n\nAny party who is this tone deaf on the reality of their own precariousness deserves to be allowed to implode as loudly and ingloriously as they seem determined to attain.\nIdiots. \n(grabs popcorn)",
">\n\nThe Republicans, had they any integrity, would be investigating themselves.",
">\n\nDidn't Jim refuse several congressional subpoena? Why does he think other people are going to play by the rules he is ignoring?",
">\n\n“Congress has not delegated such [oversight] authority to individual members of Congress who are not committee chairmen, and the House has not done so under its current Rules,” wrote Sauber, one of the White House’s top oversight lawyers.",
">\n\nQuid pro quo muthafukas...",
">\n\nKarma comes to mind",
">\n\nTo be clear, they are simply making the Republicans follow the rules. As Santos is proving, Republicans don't got no rules.",
">\n\nAnd this is coming from the same Republican Party that didn’t want to investigate the 1/6/21 attack on the Capitol.\nThe same Republicans that didn’t want to investigate Donald Trump’s administration into its role in the attack on the capital. \nTake a good look America, The republican party has no intentions of ever changing its colors. it’s business as usual with them.",
">\n\nFlexing their hypocrisy real hard.",
">\n\nAfter 4 years of executive privilege bullshit coming from their golden cow, they are outraged? Every single one of them can go fuck themselves.",
">\n\nI don’t care about their rage against things like this. I only care if Republicans are interested in good governance, and you should too. The only thing that is going to get republicans to do hood things for the American people is if we all demand it from them.",
">\n\nMy, how the turn tables.",
">\n\nThe investigations of Trump?",
">\n\nWhy don’t Republicans try to pass something meaningful that will help citizens instead of going on these never ending witch hunts based on nothing more than vengeance, and the fact they have nothing meaningful to offer. What an absolute waste of money, governance, and opportunity",
">\n\nAdorable!!",
">\n\n“How dare they use our own methods against us!” -Republicans",
">\n\nThey should reply to each request with something to the effect of: “Based on the precedent from the former guy, this is the last you will hear from us on this matter”",
">\n\n“Full of sound and fury, signifying . . . nothing”",
">\n\nI mean they had to expect a little bit of tit for tat here.",
">\n\nRepublicans: “Okay, so we planted a few bombs, but what about the Democrats that threw water balloons at us just a few months earlier. Why does no one bring that up”.",
">\n\nMy opinion on GOP House Committee’s is they’re like mushrooms. \nFeed em shit and keep em in the dark.",
">\n\nWhite Supremacists tears... hey boys, that's how this whole law thing works. Can't practice law until you pass the bar, can't order a drink until you're 21, can't board a plane without a ticket. The whole J Wellington Wimpy, I'll gladly pay you tomorrow for a hamberder today, doesn't fly in a real administration.",
">\n\nObstructionists mad they’re being obstructed.",
">\n\nWhen they become Chairmen. They first have to get McCarthy Speaker of the House.",
">\n\nGood stonewall. Use every excuse they used during the Jan 6th investigation.",
">\n\nAnd herein lies the problem: once you break things they no longer work for anyone.",
">\n\nTheir investigations are a bogus waste of taxpayer money for cheap political theater and an excuse for why they never deliver anything important for the citizens they are sworn to represent.",
">\n\n\nAnd in a further twist of the knife, the Biden White House took unusual inspiration for its newly stated oversight posture: former President Donald Trump. In its letters to Comer and Jordan, the White House counsel’s office cited Trump administration legal opinions that Democrats once derided as extreme and undemocratic.\n\nSo... that's not great.",
">\n\nJordan, who refused to comply with a subpoena issued by the Jan. 6 committee this term, is going to try to subpoena Democrats to talk about Hunter’s laptop or the end of the war in Afghanistan? \nI don’t know which is thicker, the irony or the hypocrisy.",
">\n\nWhen Dems investigate its great, doing their job. If you got nothing to hide, you would cooperate with the investigation. Now that repubs have the power, their investigations are unwarranted and should not be cooperated with?\nHypocrisy.\nBuy that works both ways. Any repub who didn't want to cooperate with dem investigation can't talk now if a dem decides not to\nPolitics",
">\n\nThe Republicans...I'll type slowly and in caps...ARE NOT IN POWER AND DO NOT HAVE THE LEGAL AUTHORITY TO ASK FOR THIS.\nThe administration said that when the Republicans are sworn in as the Chairmen of those Committees, they'd give em all they ask for.",
">\n\nThey will be shortly. It'll be a similar situation then.",
">\n\nSo, you're complaining about a hypothetical?"

I bought a ducky one 2 SF with cherry MX silents a while back. The keyboard is fucking amazing, makes very little sound, comfortable, small, works great. Told my friend who is a self-described "keyboard enthusiast" and basically got "ew normie cherry MX switches disgusting". My friend also has 3 keyboards over 100 dollars for no reason and plans on spending 600 dollars on a new one because it's going to make him "better" at apex legends even though his aim is absolute hemroids. He also spent 100 dollars on a mousepad because it has better "glide". He is 18 years old and is going to go to university, has a job right now and immediately spends all of it on clothes and a 360 hz monitor. Told him if he saved the money he earned, he would be able to pay his future debt (university is free here, but u still get a shit ton of debt because of cost of living while studying full time). And being able to get rid of that debt would give him a big head start in life. But instead, he chooses to spend it on a momentary dopamine rush that he will crave again tomorrow. And he has the audacity to shit on someone for saving money and not buying shit that doesn't do anything.

buying 3 keyboards is kinda eh? I mean a lot have multiple. Imo its okay to have more than 1 cus people like to switch around or show off
Whats not okay is buying that shit when you cant afford it. Dont think your friend knows whats budgeting does he now.
buying shit that doesn't do anything.
how to offend the whole of r/mk in 1 sentence
but seriously, most custom keyboards especially the budget ones are quite a big step up from most of the mass produced gamery garbage.
But this is more of a "once you try it you cant go back" thing and if you've never experienced stuff like gasket mounts before i wouldnt fault you for thinking it doesnt do shit. Same with 144hz+ monitors

I have been following this sub reddit for quite a while, it's the least elitist sub I have seen. I have seen people suggest what can be done to improve in future but I didn't see anyone just saying something's down right bad. Also saying there are too many elitists even tho there aren't many is becoming a trend. I don't even have a custom keyboard myself. I would say stuff like red dragon keyboards are indeed bad cuz I'm using one of those brands currently.

Mechanical Keyboards: Used to be a hobby where the idea was to eschew the mainstream and strive for typing excellence. It's now a race to the bottom where anyone who strives for excellence gets called an elitist by kids who unironically love all the "oh my poor wallet" memes, but actually just buy cheap mass produced keyboards and cloned keycaps, and spew forth jealousy fueled hate towards anyone that builds nice custom things. What elitism? This entire sub is dominated by budget builds and hate towards the high end stuff these days. It's full of reverse elitism. It's a race to the bottom. Bring on the downvotes, see if I care... I've got enough in the bank to cover it.... not that I give a shit... and some fucker had to say it, so it may as well be me. If you think this sub is elitist... head over to PrideAndPinion and post your cheap watch and see what happens... THAT'S elitism.

Alternate perspective:
Your meme coming off as exceedingly condescending and elitist in its own right. "Anal lube"? Super edgy.
That said if anal lube helped bring in the thoccc? You bet your ass I'd be lining up at tescos to buy 10 gallons of that shit.
Even the gif posted was a tongue in cheek moment by gondo. One of the nicest and most welcoming guys in the hobby. Dude frequently goes out of his way to help randoms with pcb and other Qs.
Nice rage bait though.

I read that in Chyrosran's voice.
For context, he's a vintage keyboard reviewer on YouTube who's very opinionated and has been known to use some very colorful vocabulary.

No, it's the salt that's horrible. Nitrates are contradictory to high blood pressure since they are a vasodilator.

and then, like the WHO in 2015, will point that red meats are bad, when this is mostly a processed meat problem, and you'd even have to eat a fuckton of it to increase the chance of cancer
meanwhile people keep snacking on all sorts of processed food from cookies to condiments.... full of processed vegetable oils that are waaay worse. but nobody is pointing fingers at them

How do I know if food has nitrates? Is it listed as an ingredient or somewhere else on the nutrition label?

Most manufactured meat has nitrates. Hot dogs, sliced chicken/turkey/ham/bologna/pepperoni, sausage links, etc...
If you aren't getting meat from the butcher section of the supermarket then it probably has nitrates in it.
You can see it as an ingredient most of the time. Sometimes it's called "celery nitrite" which is tricky because celery sounds healthy.

I'm not a Christian and don't eat pork but ham-mas is still one of my favourite days of the year. Every year this warning arrives alongside my Christmas pig feast and every year I ignore it.
Ham is everything. This year I didn't get to celebrate with my in-laws as usual as I am doing a family thing back home, so my mil kindly hosted a mid-December Christmas. It had everything. The little paper bon bons, a stocking with my name misspelled, a brandy custard that was more brandy than custard, and of course a giant ham.
Fuck these warnings, I love ham. Good ham though. From a giant leg that has been glazed with whatever my drunk mil pulls out of the fridge mid-morning. None of this candy pink floppy business that comes from a packet and smells like cured garbage.

You can purchase uncured hot dogs with no nitrites in them. Not the same, but its not like they are a meat alternative either with different textures etc. Not going to try and promote any type of hot dog as a health option, but I will mention them just as this topic is touching on nitrites in general.

You can purchase uncured hot dogs with no nitrites in them.
Can you though? Every single hot dog brand I have ever seen labeled 'uncured' has celery powder or cultured celery juice as an ingredient... Which are both loaded with nitrates, they are just naturally occurring so the FDA lets companies label the product as 'uncured' with 'no nitrates added' even though those hot dogs are just as loaded with nitrates as hot dogs with synthetic nitrates (like sodium nitrate) are.
Your body doesn't care whether the nitrates are natural or synthetic, the same chemical reaction between nitrates and proteins that produces nitrosamines, which are carcinogenic and what causes the increased cancer risk, still occur.

“Trump of the tropics” in more ways than one. The more concerning thing is that Brazil only has had democracy back since 1985. A military coup is not unthinkable there, nor is right-wing terrorism.

I don't think we should associate the actions of a small group with the will of the president himself. He may be planning a coup, idk. But we cannot presume that he is behind the group that was arrested

True that he may not be behind that group. However, his rhetoric is the direct cause of their actions just as Trump’s words were the direct cause of the 1/6 attacks.

With more people, who will also be arrested. In fact, the main thing about this case isn't the terrorists, but their sponsors. Plenty of suspects are already under investigation.

Seriously, too few wanted to get frustrated with China the first time around. We go through this again. Will those people learn from a second round of their evasiveness?
It was easy to blame the US when slow to roll out attempts to mitigate the disease. But "zero-Covid" China couldn't be bothered when people were leaving Wuhan while sick?
China, fool me once...
