@Mark MO Given the location, Sunday night might be a better time for stickering so as to maximize the number of people who see it. As for Saturday, I've got a prior commitment in the afternoon/early evening

Can't say exactly when I'll be done with it, not until 7PM at the earliest

Alrighty

I won't be able to make it to the meeting tonight, helping gf in the hospital get ready for upcoming back surgery.

Oh my, good luck with that Patrick.

Meeting in 45

I'll be a few minutes late

push up: 53
Sit up: 63
Run: 12:58

Olathe, KS

Keep it up everyone before long this chat will be deleted and a network shall be established.

@Leo MO was out of town, he's now back @all

Well that's good.

Who can I ride with to Texas? I am desperately trying to stay active and keep my promises, while going through the struggle of my life right now.

- If you need additional links or suggestions for any of the items listed above, please ask so.
- Long hair is to be tied into a knot at the base of the neck when activism dress code is worn.

@all @all @all

https://www.amazon.com/Eveready-Camping-Lantern-Resistant-Run-time/dp/B088C15PVV/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=lantern&qid=1637320889&sr=8-5

Clip-on hat light
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002YGBJZI/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Must have a light for the campsite on Dec 4th. @Mark MO I'll leave this up to you. Both are required.

Also everyone will need a tent.

Okay

Rhe lantern and hat lights are for the march than?

We may have camp activities that occur after hours, so it's important to have them.

Those exact models?

Just a head lamp of some sort.

Alright

I have extras I can give y'all tomorrow.

@Mark MO I can send you some $$ for a lantern. I'll order a light.

Alright, I'll see what lanterns they have at homedepot.

Kyle Rittenhouse not guilty on all charges

With @Leo MO

Contemporary German translation of the Declaration of Independence

Provided for the general interest

Plenty of Germans in America even then (aside from the Germanic Anglo-Saxons, of course)

The highlighted word is "Volk", which I realize may not be easy to read in that font

Is volk a word of significance?

As I understand it, it was chosen very deliberately in this context

the translators of the Pennsylvanische Staatsbote made a point of using the word Volk instead of Einwohner (which does not carry the same connotation of a shared blood, land, and history)

Muting out, back to work

With @Leo MO

Nice job.

Does anyone have spare boots I can borrow in size 11? If not, how tall do they have to be? Mine won't come in the mail until Dec 15th. I really don't feel like spending another $150-200.

I went to walmart and none were that tall.

Leo and I found out this one made local news lol. Now I need to get on the ADL's HEAT Map.

If no one does-I sent you a message.

Is this about my grammar question or did something important happen?

Also, happy Thanks Giving everyone.

Yes @all have a great Thanksgiving

That's a funky sticker on the bottom there. One of yours, Clarke?

Yes sir

Stole image from telegram lol

It's groovy. Keep it up.

Meeting in 50 minuets

Nice!

That's a nice grey, i can't wait to see this thing in action.

Thanks to Sean KS for the stickers and our joint stickering he coordinated and made happen which will be posted shortly.

Congratulations on the bus, couldn't be a better fit for our region and it's ever expanding reach.

What are you gonna name it?

Hate Bus 2000 < my suggestion

The Bison.

The Buffalo Goose

You ever see that photo of GLR with his RV that he had set up to unfold into a swastika-spangled White Power podium?

no, no i have not

I'm imagining something like that but with the fasces

Gonna be home in 10 minutes, got a whole bunch of photos to post

awesome.
also, don't text (type) and drive

@Sean KS Now you have to post it. That sounds amazing

@Sean KS I've always wanted a car where I could push a button and a middle finger flips up from the roof. People wouldn't even be mad. Just amused.

I couldn't find the photo I was looking for, the one where the banner says something like "THE SYMBOL OF WHITE POWER", but it's the same setup
