That and gerrymandering and voter suppression. The GOP trifecta.

This is why he scares me more than Trump...
See, this is what happens when only 22% of the populace likes your positions. Morons.
You really believe taking peoples rights away would somehow be fine with it.
The only way I’ll believe that they had “no idea” how banning abortion was going to work against them is if they truly believed that four years of MAGA was enough to turn people more conservative and anti-choice.
He’s definitely giving us “middle aged lesbian” vibes. KMart Linda Perry.
No joke; I spotted Johnny in that pic and thought it was my mom’s aging hippie friend Patty who lived next door to us when I was ten years old. Honestly, still looking and I can barely tell the difference.
Remember all that pearl clutching about Harry fucking Potter when it was still being published? I was babysitting one time as a teen and the kids asked what book I was reading. When I told them it was HP they visibly recoiled and said their parents didn’t let them read the “devil’s book”. Sometimes I wish that book…
What’s most disturbing to me is that – millions – of Americans are represented by these beliefs. These are the people who didn’t manage to engage with the basics of rational or critical thinking on a college level, and were left behind to fall back on the “fire and brimstone” they learned as children in Sunday School.
Indoctrinating my offspring tomorrow with a double feature of the original and the sequel. His soul was already lost by merit of being my son, anyway.
I do find it kind of amusing that the front page of Jez is currently promoting both this article that (rightfully) mocks crazy religious beliefs while also promoting an article that seems to unironically support burning sage to ward off evil spirits
“’Science-Fiction’ is made-up; one of the words in the genre’s name is ‘fiction’. But ‘spiritual warfare’ is very real, and not ‘fantasy’ at all, because my Book tells me so!”
Religion is just a mask for assholes to hide behind
I’ve run into a couple people, Jehovah Witnesses I think, who do believe that representations of demons and other evils in horror movies can manifest through that medium into real life.
I remember them enough to know that they didn’t have four friggin’ eyes and that the yellow blob character didn’t exist.
I’ll agree on half of this.
With 5 years of experience in multiple locations, I argued for half an hour with a Starbucks designer that the counter they were replacing ours with would slow workflow because of how it would hinder the ability to comfortably place drinks on the stand after making them. It would also cut into the frapucino prep area,…
I think it’s the concept of a Happy Meal designed for “adults” that comes in a form factor that instantly induces nostalgia. Hell, instead of a toy they could have included some special Post-It notes or hamburger cufflinks and I’d still be interested. Note to self- find hamburger cufflinks
I posted a comment asking people not include too many extraneous details, and someone strongly disagreed with me and said the details made them feel like the story was real and verifiable. After reading the first story, I stand by my opinion. I did not need 10 paragraphs(!) of exposition explaining how newspaper…
Aw man I’m not bummed and glad there aren’t many “real life” scares this year. Those are always way scarier for me than the "got a bad feeling and later learned this house had something happen here" stories, but then again I'm also glad fewer people are being traumatized by like, the scary landlord creeping in through…
