Nah. Then they’d just be embarrassed they had been pushing a book with such a woke lefty agenda. Some might even learn that they can throw away most of that commie stuff in the later parts of the book, and just keep the juicy bits they liked in the first half about how men are in charge, and slavery is okay so long as you follows some rules. Oh, except Revelations. That part rocks, let’s keep that. In fact… Let’s make it happen. That would be so sick.

Shit, I’d do that job for minimum wage, if only to see Musk fired.

Sure, but that quote calls it a “virus” but the headline says “fungus”.

I get the hate for those movies, but I honestly enjoyed them all.

They are what got me to watch TOS, finally. Then I did a full watch through of the series. They were great for revitalizing the fan base and making new fans.

I honestly love having the movies as a different universe/timeline. Saves us from tone whiplash, like Shakespeare TNG Picard vs Rambo Movie Picard.

Is this lasagna?

Horrible article title, obviously written to be misleading clickbait.

They didn’t delete the pension fund.

They deleted the Google Cloud account running the management of said fund.

It was inaccessible for a week, but has been fixed.

Big fuck up, and big news. But on the level of “hurts Alphabet stock and panics people for a week” not “bankrupts countless people, maybe crushing a whole nation’s economy.”

That, or she should be named “Mary” instead, I guess.

Debt strike!

Debt strike!

Debt strike!

I, for one, thought this was a reasonable take.

What else do people expect you to comment? Like…

Neat.

Or…

Thoughts and prayers for the driver and his family.

What discussion can a post like this garner except speculation? And to preface your speculation with an acknowledgement that the story has no real details… seems fair to me.

Which explains why it was standard procedure for presidents to put their money in a blind trust. And why Trump didn’t.

The population of NYC is 8 million, and they had fewer than 1M votes for mayor? That, like, 12.5%.

Even if you limit it to just citizen population, I found that number to be 6-7 million. Thats still only a 14-16% voter turnout.

The fuck?

Yes! I’ve said for a while that any public statement by a politician should be treated as being “under oath”, punishable as perjury as applicable.

I had never heard that before, and that now my truth. It makes so much sense.

The previous conviction was overturned on a procedural issue, like a mistrial. He wasn’t pardoned or found not guilty, so it isn’t double jeopardy. It’s just a “redo” to make sure another jury would still convict without the procedural issue.

the [worst] Democrat [is] better than the best Republican

That’s generally true, but not in the hypothetical. I’d honestly vote for Mitt Romney before I’d vote for hypothetical Democrat-Ticket Trump.

It’s called “Whattaboutism” and it’s straight from Russia’s playbook.

US billionaires hold a collective $4.5 Trillion. A 2% wealth tax would be $90 Billion. That’s simultaneously a shitload of money that could do so much good, and also a drop in the bucket for the US budget and deficit.

We need to raise taxes on the wealthy so, so much to save this country.

See, we all thought that.

Turns out the problem wasn’t that they committed genocide. It’s that the genocide was directed at the Jewish people.

And as Netanyahu would have you believe, if you’re against Israel, you’re against the Jewish people. So that makes you a Nazi.

Flawless logic, clearly.

At this point I can only understand it if I know who’s saying it.

That is the most frustrating thing about discussion these days. Everyone using the same words but speaking an entirely different language.

When you don’t agree on the definitions of words anymore, or you don’t hold yourself to using them in good faith, then you take discussion off the table. You’re no longer debating; now you are just arguing. It’s one step away from violence.

There are no bad dogs. Only bad dog owners.
