"job hugging" shut the fuck uppppppppppppp
I would like to punch whatever suit wrote the phrase “job hugger?” on a white board in some office somewhere
As best I can tell it means “ignoring and blocking annoying idiots instead of spreading their range by dunk tweeting”
Again, just keep making it real obvious the choice is between an actual candidate and a Trump puppet
I always loved the factoid that Grand Moff Tarkin was wearing slippers when he watched Alderaan blow up
Every institution is basically controlled by weenies who only want more money and zero liability
Meanwhile Fox News is here to host every lying talking head you can imagine to spin this like it’s the boom times
So to sum up, we illegally invaded North Korea, killed four random innocent civilians who were in the wrong place at the wrong time, and then just never told Congress about it I know we’re numb to shit but this happened five years ago
You’ve never had your brain worm ask the questions for you tho
“The people who are pointing out the lack of lifeboats just want the Titanic to fail”
Brain worms and legacy of impunity
Those Trump/Kim commemorative stuff somehow got even more perverse
Trump really seems to be into boat violence
I already beat another guy who cut Medicaid, gave tax breaks to billionaires, and hounded multiple women who accused him of sexual harassment — might as well debate the one actually calling the shots.
And we all know which one the people running media companies have chosen to focus on pandering to
What the fuck is this dipshit going on about
Much like the promised actions are always two weeks away, the “real” Trump economy is perpetually going to be pushed into the future as he burns it down
With all the dignity of Homer Simpson chasing his pig
Yeah, so far behind with their ample public transportation and bike lanes Remind me what’s the death rate for Europeans versus Americans, what with all the car accidents
E. coli has the chance to do the funniest thing
Cool were inventing new reasons and means for Elon’s products to hurt people
Yeah did they consult a single gay person when they came up with that “research” Because I’m pretty sure the number of kids disowned by families over that massively outstrips the reverse
I think that since the overwhelming majority of mass shooters are cisgender men, we should take their guns first.
As an adult man with an incredibly public job I would be embarrassed to demonstrate my ignorance of middle school level science
Trying to imagine the administration ending shitstorm that would have ensued in normal times
So the free speech problem is that adults can’t harass children but you’re okay with the arrests of people for the crime of expressing support for one side of a foreign conflict
Wild world where they support women doing sports with freedoms they’d never allow to happen in their own country
Nobody who voted to confirm RFK is fit to hold public office
Elder Scrolls 6 was announced in 2018, so that might be considered
Wasn’t this the guy who was stealing the fentanyl lollipops
We gave military honors to Babbit so yeah it’s just garbage now that means whatever whoever in charge wants it to
I always wondered just why these guys choose to be employed by Dracula when it just means you’re gonna be fodder for the waves of vampire hunters he inevitably attracts
Spent five minutes staring at this trying to work out what it had reminded me of. Realised it was this horrifying passage from George Orwell’s 1984.
They’re giving an award to kids for this apparently
The first part of a smash cut of Pulte being sentenced for abusing his power to investigate mortgages for political purposes
I feel like an energy secretary who thinks curing cancer is in his wheelhouse is a good example that none of these idiots know what they’re doing
“We couldn’t get accreditation so we changed the rules” will definitely make your state more attractive to students
Would love to know what Obama judge thinks lower courts aren’t respecting Trump enough
Venezuela is saying it didn’t even happen and that the video is a fake I guess I’d prefer a fake war crime to a real one but what the hell is our reality
I don’t think future historians are gonna adequately capture the tonal sanity whiplash where this kinda shit shows up the same time as Trump threatens military invasions of Democratic cities and committing war crimes in the Caribbean
Of all the people who degraded themselves for this admin I don’t think anyone’s more fully embraced the dark side this side of Stephen Miller
We should ask if he’s got any other views he wants to publicize, maybe any racist inclinations
So Hegseth’s missiles were fired at a boat: ✅ they had no idea where it was going ✅ they had no idea who was on it ✅ they had no established authority to act ✅ but definitely wanted to murder whoever was on it Everyone involved should rot in prison forever
Republicans making the argument that your power bills should be higher
Put together your constitutional amendment then buddy
youtu.be/gtDKKJq9u30?...
Word of the decade
Watched a fun video about sunfish yesterday and if humans grew like they did, the equivalent would be if a human baby ended up the size of an aircraft carrier
I wonder if there’s a bipartisan organization explicitly paying American politicians for this outcome
More than that, there’s no one under 40 who really believes the Supreme Court isn’t just making up whatever they want to back up their political goals
Doesn’t this mean that California court decision should apply here then?
It does feel very weird, as a child of the ‘90s who was raised on the idea of perpetual progress, to see society slide so far backward so quickly
By all means keep making it an obvious choice between the real candidate and the Trump puppet
The press needs to stop using “vaccine skeptic” and start using “child abuser.”
The contemporary Republican Party has gathered together, under one banner, the worst human beings in the country. It barely even has an ideology any more beyond "be your worst self."
Teachers sure, law enforcement does not need it
Mary Jane has been working out, girl could go toe to toe with a grizzly bear
I think we are underestimating the problem, given the number of Americans who would definitely say they don’t like Hitler if you asked them, but who also have no problem being employed as masked secret police or being a concentration camp guard
The fact that it won’t is the explicit decision by media elites to enable and forgive Trump at every turn
If the U.S. military isn't going to release details on the justification for killing 11 civilians in a civilian boat who weren't posing a threat to anyone, then we have to conclude the "justification" is: the U.S. military is willing to kill civilians to give Trump social media content.
Hopefully history repeats itself and these assholes lose
interesting question to ask about oren cass: has he been fooled again or is he a braying hog willing to slop up whatever it is that trump will give him?
Money and time ruin most everyone
Do they make non boring cereal anymore? They don’t even put prizes in the box nowadays
The James Cameron South Park bit about him raising the bar has aged badly
4th amendment was nice while we had it
I don’t need this cowardly both sides shit, call out the party making the problems or fuck off
Don't feel like doing a repost that puts the murder video on the timeline yet again but do feel like repeating the point that the president just straight-up assassinated 11 people for supposedly doing something that wouldn't be a death-penalty crime if they were caught and convicted
Why do you have a show about politics in America if you don’t know what AIPAC is
I wonder if he has a history of being full of shit
It’s not just that the President of the United States posted a video of eleven people being murdered in international waters it’s that the President of the United States ordered the murder of eleven people in international waters so he could post a video of it.
I know, I know, but: The president of the US saying, literally, "we're going in" in reference to sending the military to an American city for no reason beyond terrorizing the local population should be the most immediately impeachable shit imaginable
At the very least I don’t think Chicago’s newspaper is gonna do a story about how they like the invasion like the Washington Post did
This kind of thing was a huge controversy during the so-called War on Terror and now it's barely a blip in the news. So the federal government has fully moved into granting itself the authority to kill foreign civilians anywhere, anytime as long as it nods to some sort of criminal activity, I guess
The dream scenario is that America avoids full facism because the people who pushed it here were too venal and lazy to really commit to it when there was easy grift to be had
A real ketchup/catsup decision I faced this summer and then just decided life was too short not to go with both products
Really feels like there should be some kind of trigger law requiring a job performance review for a prosecutor who fails this many times with grand juries
America has a lot of people who are really, really dumb
Illinois Gov. Pritzker ahead of Trump National Guard deployment: "To Chicagoans... Look out for your communities and your neighbours. Know your rights. Film things that you see happening... Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America."
the democratic party's bias to normalcy is gonna kill us off. the gop is literally talking about a military junta and the democratic leader is operating like he can just cut a deal with republicans like its normal times.
Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything? Especially something we don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?"
Let the tow truck companies finally prove themselves worth it
Gambling idiots angry they didn’t get in soon enough to take advantage of the coming crash
“They were born to be criminals” said the president about citizens of the United States
“I would love it if governors were all stooges who wanted to make me look good”
Because they want AIPAC money and it’s crippling the whole party
Truly we get the government we deserve You guys keep complaining about school shootings but no one talks about all the kids who didn’t get murdered!
In all honestly I expect Space Force is just gonna be refolded back into the other branches
Lorwyn being on the list at all is wild
Yeah instead of people being “this tech shouldn’t be used by anyone” they’re going for “the tech should make judgments on users and report to authorities based on whatever criteria they want”
It would be an actual lifesaving act for some enterprising vandal to replace the Idaho phone number on ads with one for a hotline from a state that doesn’t suck as much shit
Interesting to know that bagels have a white color identity for commander
“Nosh” on a Magic: The Gathering card. What a time to be alive.
Wow I can’t believe the bullshit machine is being tweaked to make it more Nazi friendly
Authority of the Consuls effect is a powerful one, this creature gonna be popular
Every time Glenn Greenwald posts
As we all know, STDs in the gay community always stay there and never cross demographics
