Same God, chief. Both religions explicitly pray to the God of Abraham. Probably wanna learn some basic facts about your own religion before you get too buckwild telling people you don’t know basic stuff like “Allah is ‘God’ in Arabic.”

For the sanctity of marriage.

“I’m really gonna stick it to those people. If I get sick, I’m gonna go into absolutely devastating debt and be a massive burden. Or maybe I’ll just die uncomfortably and unnecessarily to prove a point. That’ll show them.”

That’s super cool for however many people are able to get that shrinking segment of employment. For the average person, or even for people who are above average and either excel in areas where they are competing with automation or who are just not able to outcompete their peers for those jobs, they’re still looking…

Jesus Christ, I’ve never wanted to send someone a spring-loaded box of stinging ants so badly as I did after reading that. That was well done.

Honestly, the fact that they’re expecting anyone to want a Morbius movie is weird enough. The idea that they’re gonna hang their hats on Jared “What if the Joker was edgy” Leto makes me wonder what drugs they’re using. That movie seems likely to make Dawn of Justice look like The Sound of Music, both in terms of its…

Which exists because of Blade, which exists because of Wesley Snipes?

When did we start just convicting people based on wanted posters? Hell, a wanted poster is usually at least generated by witness reports, instead of grainy, low-res photos run through a haphazard recognition program that nobody is allowed to examine to see what shakes loose.

He was convicted based on that officer’s assertion that the facial recognition had correctly identified him. The distinction is pretty fine. Without the facial recognition program, the officer was either required to just testify based on his best guess (and probably at least have to acknowledge that he wasn’t…

We’re all pretty sure he made that initial comment because he was looking at an unlabeled map and thought Georgia or South Carolina was Alabama, right? Like, he has U.S. Geography knowledge on par with that of a Danish molly dealer?

Is it weird that I’m surprised they’re re-doing The Witches? Like, in 2019, we’re going to do the Roald Dahl children’s book where he most explicitly said “I don’t really like women?”

I think the big difference is that Republicans, by and large, will fall in line. They’re full of big talk about personal freedom and anti-authoritarianism and shit when it’s not someone they think of as one of them - these are the same people who voted to give W. sweeping, unchecked powers to get brown people under…

No, see, this is just them maintaining order in the face of the national emergency of potentially losing an election to an opposition party. Freedom isn’t free, and sometimes the cost of all this freedom and prosperity is that we have to give up our freedom and trust our betters. /s

Russians are classic bad guys, and all most people who are in their likely audience know about Venezuela is that it’s in rough shape overall and their government dislikes us.

“Russia, a country run by ultranationalist, right-wing oligarchs, have given a very expensive and valuable nuclear weapon to a bereft socialist country that’s been teetering on the brink of collapse for several years and has just enough military and police apparatus to hold itself together. Not even a Cuban Missile…

I’m in NC, and we have transplants who move down here and want to get all into being Confederate and whatnot. I can’t think why Dave from Pennsylvania/Indiana/Upstate NY thinks we just have to keep that shitty statue of nobody in particular up by the legislature building, besides the obvious. But hot damn does he feel…

Where his job is to produce a video attacking a relatively moderate Democrat, sure, he did his job. Looks like you have the same job in mind, although I bet you’re doing it for free. Way to pretend you’re worried about poor people and minorities, though.

Which people? They’re on course for that cliff right now, and Johnson’s been leaning into the accelerator. If they’re not able to get an extension, they’re not worse off than they are with Johnson at the wheel, except that they’ll have a government in place that doesn’t see national self-immolation as a long-term…

For the issues that movie had, the thing that made me like it was that it wasn’t beholden to the past, and that it was deliberately constructed to break down existing structures and authorities. The logistics and logic of Finn and Rose’s trip to 1%er World aside, I liked that it didn’t worry so much about leaning into…
