The idea of anyone 30 or older tolerating a relationship with someone under, say, 25 is baffling to me. Late-20s and after age difference is much less of an issue, but if we’re being honest the early 20s are still developmental years for most people. I can’t fathom being past that and still trying to have a functional…

An inferior experience to eating 30 pancakes.

There’s a difference between “pretending my opinion is the only one that’s valid” and “recognizing that your opinion is invalid.”

he “firmly believed” the person on the ground matching the description was in fact the person who was seen with a weapon and that he had “acted under the assumption”

at the risk of drawing an overly dramatic conclusion from this

Horseshit. “Elsewhere in this thread” exists and it shows you consistently entrenching. 

I think that you’ve clearly established that you are completely entrenched in your position and are not at all interested in considering any possibility that doesn’t conform to what you have already determined.

Mark McCloskey sued a former employer for wrongful termination and his sister, father and his father’s caretaker for defamation.

cherry pick which journalists are ALLOWED to cover them

You’re right, it is not. She is not excluding reporters by race “categorically,” as other commenters have claimed; this is specifically about granting interviews covering the anniversary of her inauguration.

The mayor of a city has openly stated she won’t give one on one interviews to white reporters. That is discriminatory

lets it be known that she categorically wont talk to white journalists

I don’t see where Lightfoot is cutting off all access to white journalists. Only that she is restricting interviews about this specific anniversary of this specific event that has specific historic racial/minority implications to non-white journalists.

“If you pay off these farmers loans early, then we as lenders will have no choice but to give them bad credit ratings and deny them loans in the future!”

When people are upset at cops: “not all cops”

I did notice that Bongino subscribes to the Shapiro method of being an insufferable chode, waiting for the other person to openly express their exasperation, then acting as if his composure makes him right school of “debate.” So he can go fuck himself in a fire for that alone.

There’s pandemic recovery to facilitate, continuing violence in Palestine, and oh yeah, an insurrection to investigate, but OH HELL NO CHICK-FIL-A IS RATIONING SAUCE? THANKS, OBIDEN

The Republican party at large has long since abandoned pretense of productivity. If politics were a contest of actual outcomes, then Republicans would hold, I don’t know, 4% of government offices. Thus their entire platform is fearmongering counterfactual scenarios that “only they have an answer to” because they’re…

poop shoot

Personally, I’m not a fan of McGriddles because the maple flavoring in the bun? hotcake? is based on McDonald’s syrup, which is god-awful. When I used to work at McD’s a lot of us morning shift regulars would keep a bottle of outside syrup in the break room to use ourselves instead of the store stuff.
