So you’re saying that there’s a correlation between intravenous drug use and homelessness?

Jesus then died, rose from the dead, moved a boulder, flew away into heaven, and was never seen or heard from again over the next ~2,000 years. At least according to that one book everyone keeps raving about.

One of my first ‘girlfriends’ lived across the street from me, and we ‘dated’ when we were both about 12 (AKA sat on the couch being shy and talking a little bit while we watched a movie). She and her little sister both went to the mega-church down the street (one of the original evangelical revival-style churches…

I mean, given the monumental public butthurt over a few incidents where Tesla vehicles collided with objects after their owners turned on glorified cruise control and then checked out to play on their phones, it makes sense. One can only guess at the incredible public outcry if Tesla released a motorcycle and then…

Oh, I gotcha. My bad! Guess it was a bit of a knee jerk reaction.

Patriotism, jingoism, and nationalism are all different. Jingoistic nationalism is not patriotism.

Throw that shade! Hate hate hate! You show her how it’s done - you don’t need no ponytail to distinguish yourself as a world-famous actress and singer, so why should she?

I think she has a great voice, plenty of catchy songs, and is beautiful. I know that’s going to catch a lot of flak here on Jez.

Sincere condolences to all the “dudes” out there who were about to pat themselves on the back, but complaining about that time your friend / girlfriend ditched you to go backstage / on some celebrity’s tour bus / up to some rich person’s VIP area / back to some athlete’s hotel room doesn’t make you a “good dude”.

Regardless of how you spin it, he did have a gun on him. If there was no gun, it would have been a different story and it’d be much easier for us to judge the cop. However, the details of the story — criminal, gun on his person, SWAT standoff, etc. — muddy the waters a bit, and that’s why it had to go to a jury to…

I’d say the UAE still takes the cake. “indoor ski slope in the middle of a desert”, “artificial sand island kept alive by money”, “tallest building(s) in the world build in the middle of a searing desert by slaves who had their passports taken away”, “fleets of vehicles literally made of actual silver”, “restaurants…

“A fool and his money are soon parted”

The woman in the article is making a cogent statement which is pertinent to the discussion. It shuts down any argument from Greitens that they were engaged in consensual BDSM or something.

It’s neat when blades of grass try to throw shade on tall trees.

Why do all these racist lunatics look the same? They all look like they’re related to the family in Texas Chainsaw Massacre. That inbred, suspicious (xenophobic), superstitious (evangelical), ugly frumpy look like people you’d spot at an East Texas Denny’s on Sunday morning after church lets out.

In any MMO game that lets me choose between male or female avatars, I typically go with female. Usually there’s no difference, but occasionally I’ll get freebies offered to me in-game from other players, which I accept. I’ll also get flirty messages or requests to be friends, or for my pictures in RL, etc. and I…

A white dude just died after an encounter with the cops at a grocery store earlier this week.. They were called after he refused to leave when asked by the management, there was a struggle (caught on camera), and he ended up dead.

A cool experiment for a different restaurant would be to wait until after closing time, but before they’ve locked the doors. Maybe wait until the last customers are finishing up and you see some of the hourly wage staff doing some of those subtle “getting ready to close” tasks like putting stuff away, stacking chairs…

Racist lady woman gets her guns taken away and has to go to court. Good.

Yes, we can produce oil from waste; we cannot produce enough oil, from enough waste, to support the current population, at its current rates of energy consumption. That’s why the maximum production rate of oil - or ‘peak’ oil - is one of the population control measures I mentioned.
