No, the first three points are pretty clearly directed at Trump.

Oh, definitely. Good works were supposed be a manifestation of your “electedness” rather than a means of becoming one of the elect. It’s just that introducing this concept of strict predestination opened up a whole new, insidious means for the powerful to justify their power.

Wow, this has been up for an hour and I am the first comment to talk shit about Tyler Perry? Kinja really has killed the comment section. Anyways, Tyler Perry is a hypocritical piece of shit who has profited off of exploiting people’s religious beliefs with his shitty plays and movies, so its not really a surprise…

Didn’t Osteen get enough money to cover costs when he passed the plate around to the refugees?

Come on,this story got posted 1 hour ago and has 10 comments. On a long weekend. There has never been a post about a celebrity no matter how vapid that got such a low response. Burying our head in the sand about what this says about us explains how we got a reality star in the White House.

Quick true story. I smoked pot for the first time in 15 years a few weeks ago. I took one puff, thought nothing of it, and a friend popped on the new ducktales show. About 3 minutes in I couldn’t understand what was going on. Friend freaks out because I look completely pale. I felt dizzy and I guess I was breathing…

I’m pissed. *pulls up denim jeans*

That’s pretty much the perfect example of Lawful Evil if I’ve ever seen one right there...

Yeah, please fuck off forever. I’ve lived through catastrophic natural disasters. People need to eat and drink clean water. Christ, go jerk yourself off with Atlas Shrugged again, you wretched piece of shit.

Go directly to hell, you absolute nightmare of a person.

I don’t venture out of my way to have Hainanese chicken rice due to the emotional scars from a childhood filled with bites of bone bits. But based on the one meal I had of it in Singapore, there’s liberal use of oil and juices both on and in the Hainanese chicken—unlike the market where my parents got our white-cut…

The other thing to consider about white cut chicken is that chickens in Asia tend to be way more flavorful than its American counterpart, which has been bred to utter blandness. Hainan chicken rice is one of the great dishes of the culinary world, and all it is is poached chicken dressed with some sauces.

Yeah, the problem with Chinese poached chicken is that there isn’t much marinade and if there is any, it doesn’t get into the meat much. You get pretty tender meat, but there’s not a lot of flavor in it. Even worse, the chickens are hacked into pieces with a cleaver, so there always the risk of getting bits of bone…

As a Chinese, I grew up thinking that poaching was the standard method of cooking chicken wings. Later, of course, I discovered the world of barbecued, broiled, and fried wings. “We were so wrong,” I said to myself.

Reviews like this are why we can’t have nice things. Demand better from your entertainment than what Game of Thrones is providing.

discussion over here:

Having not read the books, I’m not a GRRM fanboy, but based on watching the show, he created a complex world with real life historical analogies. D&D and the writers seems to watch a lot of lower tier cable dramas.

Kinja is stupid. The end.

Tons and tons of nuance to be had here, so let’s get started. I JUST returned from my local dispensary where .75g pre-rolls are like $6 or you can pick up a full gram of the same buds and do it yourself for $7. So there is that minor point to consider - if you don’t have a pipe/bong/whatever, are ‘mobile’, out and…
