Important to get that periodic reminder that a solid third of the population literally live in an alternate reality field

It’d be so cool if β€œcleaning up” involved some accountability.

My β€œI really don’t want to speak it into existence” is that I think the Israelis might just try and seize and occupy and settle southern Lebanon.

The concept of β€œgreater Israel” is something that has a lot more traction in far right Israeli circles than I think most people realize.

Furiously rapping the β€œThe average office worker is measurably bigger, taller, and probably has more functional strength than their grandparents” sign.

We live in an era of abundance that our ancestors could not have possibly dreamed of and people still don’t get it

Massive shout out to the USDA and the US Department of agriculture because those three glasses of vitamin fortified milk that I had every day growing up mean that my body is fucking massive

Because of that, our bodies are so much bigger and stronger and healthier than anyone before us. I can’t wear any of the clothing that my father, let alone my grandfather, war because my frame is so much bigger.

Honest to God, it should be legal to hit somebody in the face when they resist the objective, factual knowledge that average humans living in the global north in the post World War II era are some of the only people in all of human existence to live a life free from real hunger.

For sure, it’s funny that it is treated as such despite being a totally reasonable legit argument for most endowments and they damn near footnote it entirely.

Feel like periodically reminding elites that they bleed and die just like the rest of us when they get some speed holes punched in them is the political equivalent of a wifi router reboot

I, too, think tens of thousands of people should go to prison because sometimes I smell something I don't like

(There would then be a special I think? But it’s Oklahoma so it’s probably safe to assume the seat is never without an R in it?)

Many such cases. The inevitable conclusion of letting your liberal/center left party be captured by pundits and consultants is it forgets the whole reason it is supposed to exist in the first place.

Labour is what happens when the nominally "center-left" party stands for absolutely nothing and just shifts more and more to the right in a foolish attempt to woo voters to their right: a massively unpopular party that's going to get absolutely crushed... and right-wing policies.

I’m not gonna lie her last moment being remembered as her being awkwardly sexually harassed by a chud in the question pool is pretty *chefs kiss*

tl;dr Labour is fascism-lite now and it turns out that people hate that (and fascists will always seek out the real thing anyway). It's one of the reasons I'm always urging Dems to resist the constant calls by pundits to move right, especially on social issues.

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

Ryan Grim is a hack and a fraud and their outlet is pretty widely suspected to be taking Russian money

I dunno dog I thought β€œdouble tapping fishermen” would have an impact but the military clearly has zero honor remaining.
