i think a couple of them that died weren't that old, but had long-standing health issues and ongoing cancer treatments while seeking re-election. I mean this stuff also came up with Ginsburg on the Supreme Court under Obama. People think it's a slight to ask them to strategically retire
it is literally people staring the universal experience of death in the face and saying "not me though, I'm built different". What do they expect besides people getting pissed off at them over this shit?
I will never understand people pretending to be offended by this shit--it is a biological fact that people in their late 70s and 80s TEND TO DECLINE AND DIE. There's certainly exceptions, some people perform well throughout old age, but the sense of entitlement from these people is enraging

the last acceptable wartime use I've heard of this song was some guy in War Of Rights on the Union side who would play the opening riff over voice chat every time there was a bayonet charge

jesus. I knew there was something of a boom since i moved out--I saw a 1BR there (admittedly a large one) getting advertised as cheap, but it was like $1,000 a month. And I recognized the address--directly across the street from the fertilizer plant
since when did it have 30,000 people?? I haven't been back there in a while
what the fuck since when did we get a new library

walking right up to a random guy at work you've only talked to in passing before and saying, "i've figured you out."
pretty sure Golden is retiring, so he's probably just doing this for the love of da game
The same private equity company has been buying up nearly ever home in my neighborhood and building massive 5+ bed, 5+ bath single-family homes. In the past three months, they've controlled three properties within a 1/8mi radius. In two years, they've developed at least 10 of these in a 1/2mi² area
Kristi Noem on her first day as Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas
Two, three, many QAnons
like with Anti-Masons: I think local freemasons actually killed that guy! And many politically connected people were Freemasons then. But it seems he got murdered for being an annoying shithead, and ppl were Masons bc they were rich or aspiring to be. The Anti-Masons missed the forest for the trees
as someone who used to write and record a show about conspiracies that have some actual merit behind them, I think the main thing is to not get lost in the close-up view and obsess over the details. The big trouble is being an empty vessel that can be filled with any old horseshit lol
One woman who called the State Department helpline looking for help said they told her to "stop ranting and raving" and hung up on her.

lmao
