As a leftist who owns firearms, I’m waiting for everything to kick off (in Minecraft obviously)

Same! I remember as a kid just deciding one day I would remember where I was at in a book, and ever since I’ve just… been able to remember.

“do no harm, unless it violated your specific religious ideology” that’s how the oath goes right?

Man, I really enjoyed Hyperion, but the rest of the series kind of lost me. It also doesn’t help that Simmons is an actual nut case.

Then he could, just grabbing an example out of the air, pay a painter to paint a portrait of himself, get that painting evaluated and valued for several million dollars, and then donate it to the charity and write off the value. Not that anyone would do that mind you.

If half of a percent of the people who voted for trump are the same kind of violent crazy as the ones who stormed the capitol that’s hundreds of thousands of them across the US. I feel like that’s a pretty significant number one way or another.

My guy, I got yelled at at a stop light for having a “pedophile flag” (a pride flag) on my car. Those people do actually exist.

Or be killed while “resisting arrest”

LinkedIn is one of the least sane social media sites I’ve ever had the displeasure of using. Under all the marketing BS and obviously fake feel good stories lie takes that would make your insane Facebook uncle blush.

In effect they want states to be able to do what they want, as long as it aligns with Republican ideals. All you need to do is look at their rhetoric towards sanctuary cities for the “states rights” argument to fall apart.

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: there must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.

That is a remarkably shitty argument. “Sure, I know the system is wrong and only hurts people, but it’s the system! You can’t just go and reform systems so they stop hurting people! Think of the investment bankers!”

We can and should change things, and part of that is helping the people who have been hurt by the system.

In what other situation would we be okay with allowing an 18 year old with no income to take out tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt? The system is purpose built to fuck over the better part of two generations of people.

“If God had wanted you to regulate your glucose levels he wouldn’t have given you type 1 diabetes. Now give me your goddam insulin!”

Ah yes, that’s why they did it. I’m sure that’s exactly why they voted for the, as stated previously, narcissistic etcetera etcetera. Get the fuck out of here.

Yup, just 71 million or so goddam people voted for a narcissistic grifter felony with daddy issues. Fuck.

How dare people checks notes want a degree of representation in the media and hobbies they enjoy.

“Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to my day job of signing up 16 year olds to multi year contracts with the military…”

What a terrible day to be literate.

And Palestine. Shit is going to get uglier than it was already.
