Look theres good enough reasons to hate Chick-Fil-A but you are not telling me your brain lives in a world where the teenagers who work there are all (or even a lot of them) isolated religious fundamentalist nuts who just got let off the cult compound to interact with society???
They hire normal people with interviews??? Teenagers go to fucking public school???
The leadership isnt even close to “westboro baptist church” levels of extreme???
Soon, they will have a supermajority.
Maybe the democrats should have worked hard enough to get a majority. Or chosen to negotiate by allowing the bill for temporary snap funding to pass.
The democrats blocking the last one is them DIRECTLY withholding snap funding until they get what they want.
Their strategy, is that people are stupid and will blame the republicans for the actions of the democrats. More likely though, the democrats are going to give the republicans that supermajority in 2026.
What do you mean by this? The democrats are literally engaging in a filibuster. Did you not see Katherine Clark say “There will be families that are going to suffer… but it is one of the few leverage times we have.”?
They literally just have to let the budget go to vote.
They have 53/100 in the Senate, and because this is less than 60, it permits the FILIBUSTER to take place on the part of the democrats, who are refusing to let the budget go to vote.
House Republicans offered a bill to keep specifically SNAP funded while everything else is still under negotiation.
Democrats declined.
If youre playing on Steam, keep in mind theres regular Overlord 1 and Overlord: Raising Hell. You only want to play Raising Hell, which includes the expansion pack. That expansion pack adds a section to the end of EACH story chapter, rather than being self contained.
If you play Overlord 1 and then try to play Raising Hell, you’ll be faced with a complete play through of the whole game just to see the expansion content. Theres no need to own base Overlord 1, or to play it if you have it.
This has completely killed my desire to listen to random music albums ive never heard of on YouTube. Sadly.
I got recommended a new song by Architecture in Helsinki. Oh holy shit, they’re back together and released something?
Nope, someone spoofed the band name and its an AI generated song about Minecraft. Somehow this still caused it to get immediately recommended to me.
Skyrim for me. At least I got the physical map! But it was kind of plasticky. Made me miss, say, the cloth map that came with Never winter Nights.
Not… Sure if this counts as “changing that”.
Rage on Behalf of the Machine
Found Leo’s account.
Seriously though why so hostile about this? Of course it’s made up, it’s a general rule of thumb, and it describes whether people are likely to look at a couple and say, “ew”.
Let me guess, charlie kirk sitting in public with a microphone was attacking and the guy sitting on a rooftop with a rifle was defending?
Based on the popular vote, being right wing gives you a bigger dating pool than being left wing according to this principle. Then again, right wingers are more likely to talk to their political opposition rather than leaving or getting violent, since they aren’t as used to echo chambers.
Is it safe to say GDPR was a mistake at this point?
Well there was the time they tried to remove Trump’s secret service detail, right before the assassination attempt on him.
Been on kiwi farms. There is no “we’re swatting these guys” thread. And there is a very detailed and well-cited thread doxxing torswats and documenting and archiving the attempt to tie their actions to KF. You literally can just go read it. Please do. The Torswats/Alan Winston thread.
No amount of “uhhhhh they’re untrustworthy and not all of them are left wing” is sufficient to beat the clear documentation. Because of his arrest, trial, and conviction, much of what is in the thread can also be verified by law enforcement sources. If you believe otherwise, you are a victim of internet misinformation.
And yes, I still call bullshit on the made-up musk Nazi salute from the same political machine that brought us “everyone making Nazi salutes at the Palestine protests is fine, actually” as well as “if you sit at a table with a Nazi, then you’re a Nazi”.
I can believe you knew someone like that once. But no. Religious fundamentalists are not widespread and pervasive. They dont make up the majority of a fucking fast food chain to the point where you would say it’s only “technically” open to the public. They dont make up much if any of the police force. What on earth led you to think that is the case. Did you live in a town with a population of 124 that was like that?
