It’s cute that you think there was any left after the Iraq war

That’s how I feel about organized religion.

The Outer Space Treaty only bans nuclear weapons in space.  It does not prohibit space warfare.

I mean neither has Russia or China... Granted, not real good company, but the big powers have always believed that treaties don’t really matter unless they want it to. 

God. Wear a fucking mask. This is not about your assault. It is the worst thing that could ever have happened to you. And it truly sucks. And fuck that guy/girl/human. But, you know what?  This isn’t about that. And we all have traumatic shit we are dealing with right now. Wear a mask or stay the fuck home.

Not really, you can also fail your physical due to stuff like Asthma etc. I had a family member who got an appointment but had childhood asthma and failed a lung capacity test for the Air Force Academy physical. 

It’s also distinctly possible that he was rejected on a purely academic basis, just because Mark Meadows nominated him does not necessarily mean he was academically qualified.

Here’s are the best arguments for Biden in November when it comes to healthcare and climate:

I made a little gif in case anyone else browses this place with an ipad and dislikes these slideshows as much as me and wants not to deal with em. Refreshing the page usually brings up the photos if they’re not loading.

Like, I’d prefer if they were honest and said ‘Look, this isn’t ideal, this isn’t what we WANT to do, but we don’t have much of an option. Parents need to go back to work, and they can’t afford full time child care year round. They can’t just leave the kids alone at home. It sucks, but it’s whats necessary.’ I don’t…

To the folks who could not find it in their hearts to vote for Hillary in 2016:

And he had TWO SHOTS at it! When NYC was blowing up, we knew we had a testing issue. Couldn’t get ahead of it. That’s horrible, and of course the Administration’s response is “not our fault.” Fine, par for the course. BUT, even the most inept Administration, one would think, would say “ok let’s not get caught with our…
