So what are supply routes between settlements supposed to do?

I read they're supposed to let you share settlement inventories but I tested that by setting a supply route between two settlements and putting a T-45 helmet in one settlement's workshop but it didn't appear in the other.

What am I doing wrong?
It only shares the inventory of the other settlement when you're building, apparently

I didn't watch the VGAs this year, but at least the right game won GOTY.
It was alright, they accidentally forgot to announce the winners of two awards though

LOL You people

Seems like half of Sep7agon is currently depressed while the other half was depressed at some point already in their lives
I understand some of you guys had fucked up parents and some stuff but... man the fuck up.

Terrible advice if taken at blunt value as is.
I'm just saying from what some of you have said you don't really need to be putting the gun up at your head.

I don't know maybe I just don't understand.
Depression doesn't necessarily have to have a logical or actual reason to happen, it just does sometimes. It's not really something you can just "get over" easily.

How on earth could you watch the same movie seven times in a row

I couldn't even watch my favourite movies that many times that quickly, like jeez
It's a once and a life time thing when a new Star Wars movie comes out...well actually the start of a new trilogy.
The last Star Wars movie came out 10 years ago, not very once in a life time

Question: why would Muslims ever want to go to America considering it's not an Islamic country and never will be, and furthermore why would you want to bring Muslims into your non Muslim country?

Looking from the outside American culture and Muslim culture appear incompatible with one another.
"Why would we not want cultures to remain stagnant for the remainder of eternity?"
You're really begging the question there. How does Muslim culture improve American culture? and if it doesn't, why would you advocate for it?
Cultures don't have to "improve upon" or "take away from" other cultures to be beneficial. Culture sharing is beneficial at its core.

Do I advocate for Americans to start following Shariah Law and wearing hijabs? No, of course not, but I don't advocate for anyone to do these things and would say that moving past odd laws like that is one of the great benefits of culture sharing.
That makes more sense than your first post, but now I have to ask what kind of sharing you're talking about, and whether or not Muslims need to be in America to do so.
Integration and understanding of one another's culture is basically something that's always happened throughout history. Cultures that attempt to stay stagnant and "hidden" from the remainder of the world tend to end up poorly.

Now, this isn't saying that we should leave other, more "primitive" (from a technological point of view) cultures on their own, but we also shouldn't be scared of naturally adopting aspects from other cultures through integration.
So are you saying that America is stagnant and has been hiding it's culture from the world because it lacks Muslims? And what aspects of Muslims culture are you proposing Americans adopt?
I think she's talking more generally rather than specifically Muslims and America. People moving into a new country should be expected to be able to freely express their original culture and ideas while also adopting the ideas and culture of the place they moved to. Think the Maori peoples in the 60's and 70's with the revival of their culture and more integration of it in NZ society, compared to the decline and essential erasing of their culture in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. While not two completely different cultures coming together from opposite sides of the world, it's an example of what Cindy's talking about.

hope you get what i mean im bad at this whole discussion thing
I do see your point, but I am talking specifically about Muslims in America, two cultures that seem incompatible, whereas Maori and British culture are more capable of coexisting.
I couldn't answer that, however I remember hearing that Muslims living in the US were more moderate than Muslims living elsewhere, perhaps the reason is because the US integrates different cultures so well? I'd have to look into it to give you a definitive answer.
