That, or they’d be in a building that doesn’t exist in an area with some kind of nebulous legal status listening to “Baby Shark” very loud and with a slightly varied rhythm 25 hours a day while a disgraced psychiatrist in clown makeup asks them the same four questions every 11.6 seconds.

That’s a good point. I was only thinking of that one guy they shot dead (in New York?) and then tried to play like he’d tried to kill them with his car.

This thing has been shot down no less than three times, and every time, our GA goes in, tries to tinker with it juuuuust enough to get it through, and then passes “another version.”

I think she’s still in a three-way tie for the tier right below where Sanders and Buttigieg (who is somehow still in this???*), though. She’s getting comparable actual support to Biden and Bloomberg.

Pretty sure they already killed at least one person in the last six months with this kind of action. 

Yes, that is the moral thing to do, when the alternative is that we send in federal agents to terrorize them and trample not only their civil rights, but the rights of the people they’re 100% going to profile, detain, and try their damnedest to arrest and deport improperly. That it’s being done as punishment for…

Not to be that person, but there definitely was a country called Palestine for a long while, if not a nation-state in the modern sense. We wouldn’t say Greece wasn’t a country before independence from the Ottomans, right?

Edited comment to say nothing except these shitty statues ought to be melted into something more useful. I bet you could get a lot of napkin rings or drawer pulls out of one of those.

Meanwhile, any other protester wearing a mask is “the Antifa,” according to shitty conservatives everywhere, even though being identified by these guys is a fast track to death threats and people hanging around outside your place of work, as the guy who went through and ID’d a bunch of open participants posing for…

That Team’s ownership generally can go play in traffic at rush hour, but I’m from the same town as Jennifer and I’m proud as hell of her.

The Hobbit always struck me as Tolkien telling a fairy tale. And it’s a good story, and a good fairy tale. I thought it was basic when I was a pre-teen and teenager and got into The Lord of the Rings, and thought I was better than fairy tales, somehow.

You know he has weird Skinner/operant responses to punishment now from mixing guilt and horniness, too.

This is a good interpretation. There’s a burger form that usually use ketchup (except for people who just don’t like it), and it’s good and not easily reproduced without it. There are bad executions and good executions of it, and variations that don’t need it, and that’s totally okay. Liking this way of doing it…

My wife had a bunch of dipshits on her various Facebook-affiliated platforms positing that not only were J.Lo and the NFL trafficking children, they also made those children part of the entertainment. Including the little girl in the cage who turned out to be Jennifer Lopez’s kid. A few years ago, that would have been…

She is getting her prayer answered on that second one. Probably not as fast an ecological collapse as she’d like, but it’s looking increasingly like we will all be praying for divine providence of our basic necessities before too much longer.

I’m 100% sold on this show, and not at all concerned that I will largely not know what is being said. I assume it will be fun for the band and any Mongolian speakers who happen to be there, and that’s good enough.

It’s funny, because if you show them some of the same stuff going on in North Korea, and they’ll tell you it’s sad and awful. And two days later, they’ll wonder aloud why God is allowing people to oppose Trump when he’s so clearly doing His Work.

I did some looking a while back because a bunch of dumbasses in my state were online claiming there were all these improper, in-person votes (to the tune of many thousands). So, after pointing out that it would be a stupid, stupid crime (high risk, low reward, need to have a pretty vast conspiracy that never leaks), I…

Good lord, I hope you didn’t spend time writing that. It’s not often you hope someone copied something from elsewhere to claim as their own, but like...

Ding ding ding! It’s the slightly less overt way of describing the grab bag of shitty white supremacist beliefs, because they finally realized that “white supremacist” was something people associated with murders, robberies, cross burnings, random violence, public racism-fests, and flyer dumps. You know, all that…
