Body farms sound like something out of a horror film, but they are real places called taphonomic research facilities—sites where forensic scientists study how the human body decomposes.

whoever shot him must have been so glad when that weird quest item was no longer cluttering up their inventory
I’ve never seen the strawberry zero dr. pepper and now my quest is known
JFC, what is the *point* of caving if not to avoid MAGA crazies in a primary? I do not get the Republicans who have sold their souls and sold out their country for… nothing 🤷🏻♂️ 🤯

Cool. I respect that.
Obviously not. So, if you are going to make an animal rights argument I’d be sympathetic to that. However, I’ve examined the issue and (1) it doesn’t convince me to forgo personal consumption of animal products entirely and (2) I certainly wouldn’t impose restrictions on others.
Yes, and to be certain I know and am friends with a few and not all of them are annoying! Also, I have had some great vegan food! On average though: it’s not very good. So I’ll consider anything, but it’s going to be hard to convince my *taste buds*
See what I mean about being annoying! Thank you for the example of how vegans are condescending, annoying jerks.
This is sort of overweening, condescending comment is exactly what I mean about vegans being annoying jerks. Thank you for the example! ♡
There is more good vegan food than there used to be. But most of it sucks. And always will, it’s just inherently handicapped. Is what it is. While the food will always be subpar, vegans themselves don’t have to be annoying though. That’s a choice.
No, but I can eat. I’ve had good vegan food. But most of it sucks.
They lost because the food sucks and vegans are annoying. Not complicated.

You think Maxine Waters is going to help Dems restore their popularity? People like you are still going to be scratching your heads when Donald Trump Jr. is running for his fourth term in 2044. Stop losing.
Again.
Barbara came the closest.
So, f*ck Bob Dole. I was for Dole in ‘96 and viewed him as a return to GHWB style Republicanism—but he’s just another morally bankrupt a’hole in the end.
Ds should go on offense. Pain from tariffs, DOGE, and OBBBA are all about to hit. The consequences haven’t really landed… yet.
We’re numb to so much. Shouldn’t Barack Obama be spending every day in public doing rallies against Trump’s encroaching totalitarianism?
Yes. People are just uninformed or misinformed.
Very good take.
More like him please! Big tent. ♡

Heck! Yes! Compete *everywhere*
Selfish. These people should be thrown under the bus, just like Biden. It’s a safe district. New and more energetic blood helps the brand, and the brand is very, very tarnished.
Ouch. What an own-goal for America.
washington’s approval rating has dipped below beijing’s in canada (still beating moscow though)
It’s as if these hard left types have a death wish, obviously we have been doing something wrong! Stop losing.
Gotta re-legalize starter homes on small lots, encourage more experimentation with manufactured housing and other construction modes, restore fiscal discipline to bring down interest rates
Thank you Alex! ♡
Yes! Compete *everywhere* Keep going! ♡ this.
Ordering clothes from Japan and it got waaaaay more expensive 😡
Fight. Be smart, be assertive. Win converts.
Time for Dems to change their attitude! I don’t like losers. Nothing admirable about it.
Pathetic
I can only conclude that leftists hate themselves and want to lose.
The *object* of the game is to get the most votes, how do these morons thinking kicking people *out* will help them win? These are the same people that kick a lot of own-goals in soccer, aren’t they? 🤦🏾♀️

My point is that normal voters *don’t* so don’t talk to voters about this stuff.
If current U.S. population projections hold, a nightmare scenario may unfold for Democratic Party insiders. Here's what a New York Times analysis found. nyti.ms/4lHPZUZ

It’s what they want. Don’t give them the symbolism. Torch the presidential seal instead. Burn effigies of Trump. But don’t burn the flag.
The world is unfair. I am far more angry with the media and Republicans than I am with Dems. But requesting fairness isn’t in the cards right now. Our fate is to fight in an unfair fight. But fight we must. Even if it’s distasteful or ridiculous that we have to hold our side to unfair standards.
Amen. They must know this. They’d be hideously unmasked if they don’t reject this.

This broken world is so unfair. Use your hands and your hearts and bend it back. Let’s go fight.

It’s infuriatingly unfair. But you have to fight.

It’s so hard to say what plays on 2032 after a four year term as prez. Much easier to expand the map once you’ve got that kid of name recognition, and you can target those states in how you govern… Lots of Hyatts in the sun belt.
He was centrist. Not as left as Biden.
Amen. More like this. They can’t continue with the abuse if we all stand up to it. Bullies need to be punched in the nose.
I didn’t say it was fair, it’s not. I can’t make the world fair. All I can do is fight on an uneven playing field.
To most people. Just say “not trans” if you want people to understand you. Perfectly good word for sociology textbooks, but people hate jargon. Drop it for most situations.
She was the most liberal major party candidate in history based on her senate voting record. She ran a fantastic campaign given the circumstances.
Hahaha. I am on your side. It’s the best way to get to the policies you want.
It doesn’t matter if you think it’s an indictment of the country. The country is. So either persuade people to change their minds or take more popular positions to win. But you have to win.
He was much farther left than FDR in absolute terms. Especially on social issues.
Right, so focus on the HEALTHCARE part that matters to so many people.
She lost because she was too far left
Hahaha - dude, my motives are pure. My goal is to win elections. I don’t care of its with AOC or Joe Manchin. The best candidate that can win!
They are not a myth. And if you think so you’re just giving up. Lots of voters swung to Trump in 2024: especially minorities and young people. Swing them back.
Oh, in the primary, I see what you mean. That must be how you got such good candidates, they didn’t get dragged to the left and damaged in a primary.
I don’t care about your identity to care about your rights. I’m on your side no matter what your identity is. So in that way, it doesn’t matter.
You should read more.
It’s perfectly fine for a texbook on sociology, but when talking to voters just say “not trans”. Using jargon is alienating and makes people think you’re a condescending asshole.
All of them in communications to ordinary voters. Oh, and especially “unhoused” - stupidest consultant garbage I have ever seen.
He wins because he took left leaning positions on economics and won swing voters.
What leftist Dem has won a purple or red state?
Demanding latinx people defend the police is niche. Even trans issues are niche, relative to issues like healthcare or immigration.
Relative to red states we need to flip, yes. They are the farthest left candidates for prez in recent history. More far left than any other elected president.
Which leftist candidate have one red states? All the purple state govs and senators are centrists.
Hahaha. No, I am on your team, actually. What is your plan to flip TX?
She came close enough to cause herself problems
👎🏼 OBE for the landlords…
Harris praised the movement. Look it up.
I’m on your team. Why would being black and queer matter?
Biden was pretty far left my friend. Too far for much of the country.
Harris was the farthest left candidate since WWII. It’s just a fact. That’s too far left. You’re out of touch with the country. You are hard left.
All the candidates who have won in red or purple states that I can see are centrists and not hard leftists like you find in Bluesky comment threads.
