A bag that small probably holds the dignity of the entire GOP caucus.
I have no objection to homeless people living in the White House or buildings like it.
Is it just me or this man looks like an extra from Who Framed Roger Rabbit
The Party of the Working Class, mumble mumble ramble, Golden Age, blah, sounds
He is far too old for the job like Joe Biden was so now the people who did not worry about the same things around the latter are going to point the same things with him and vice versa. Except that when it comes to Trump, the senility is the least of our problems.
How is this not a euphemism
So that's why we lost in Vietnam. They were 15 times bigger than us.
If Mike Pence has the courage, he still has a shot
wait wat
These days, I recommend assuming that everyone at high levels of executive power in this country is using the royal "we". It won't make you feel better but things will make way more sense.
In addition to blue states effectively underwriting the low taxes of red states for decades.
One would think a weapon with this reputation would no longer be on the market but this is America where the right and opportunity to shoot yourself in the ass is sacrosanct.
"I don't see any evidence besides right-wing people being happier with bias" is some funny shit
I am old enough to remember that post about the Genius move of American factories in Ukraine forming a deterrent to Russia.
BREAKING: cults succeed by being adept at recruiting, study shows
BREAKING: woke is broke says area man who spent his entire life going through bankruptcy.
Him walking away from America on fire is sort of perfect, to be fair.
The awkward bit being that the GOP held the House majority for about 20 of the past 30 years, nearly same with the Senate, controlled most states the entire time, controlled SCOTUS the entire time. But sure, the "liberals" messed it all up.
The genius part of it being that a decent number of Guardsmen are cops in civilian life so you are literally moving cops away from their day jobs for law enforcement đ¤ˇââď¸
How is this half recycled twatwaffle still around
Literal waste, fraud and abuse.
This. This is the content I am here for.
Using Chinaâs own turgid way to describe their own system was clever, I thought.
Itâs almost as if there was a reason for all the silly memes
A popular sport on this site is shitting on some NYT headlines. Some are pretty good tho
This is one of the stupidest tweets ever unless your name is Fred Trump and you are still alive.
The stats will be suspended until morale improves.
Itâs almost as if most bosses sucked at managing people.
I want to live in a city where the biggest issue is people leaving carefully re-capped bottle standing on the sidewalk.
âI am triggered by wheelies! Use government power to make DC a safe space for my little feelings!â - by the supposedly small-government folks who have spent 20 years calling everyone else a snowflake
The rationality and poise of men: live 24/7 on Fox News
Two things can be true at once: 1) 30 year low and 2) still too much fucking crime. It ain't like 1994 DC was that nice. Not that this will fix it either.
Is that what he meant by land swaps
Left wing politicians being exposed will work 100% with his base.
âMan who is afraid of pronouns in email signatures also afraid of womenâ doesnât require PhD level studies to figure out. Just sayinâ
If any Democrat suggested this, it would be called socialism.
Itâs starting to feel like real estate people are not that good at things outside real estate.
My inner quirky Xennial woman is all over this shit. FWIW.
If you are afraid of pronouns in email signatures, imagine how frightening it is to see the statues of losers like yourself being taken down.
What did all these idiots think âmass deportationâ meant. âOh but I voted for carefully targeted deportationsâ. HOW MANY CAREFULLY TARGETED DEPORTATIONS SIGNS DID YOU SEE AT THE RALLIES YOU CLOWN
Why did I leave Ireland and come back here.
The tariffs will bring back so many jobs we wonât need imports and at the same time our imports will grow so large that tariffs will replace income taxes. Make it make sense.
âI need financial incentives to treat employees wellâ may not be the flex you think it is.
Best case. And they will love it as long as there are camps with crying immigrants and government employees looking for jobs.
Same with mobile OSs. By 2016 or so it feels like we have been stagnating at best.
Waste, fraud and abuse.
To be fair, âYou too can arrest hotel maids and laborers outside Home Depotâ might not sell as well. So instead we get the âWe are such pussies we need all this training to arrest hotel maidsâ video đ¤ˇââď¸
All this rooting out of waste, fraud and abuse has been a clear success
Whoever came up with that number is next in line to be fired. Or "Golden Aged" as the kids call it.
The "Western Christian values" people have a problem with cathedrals now? Next thing you'll tell me the people who are against anti-semitism have Kanye over for lunch.
Given how subdued Americans' reaction is to an unprecedented attack on every institution in the country, I am thinking "public fury" is going to happen way too late. If at all.
Trump: "I prefer winners. Such as confederates, Nazis or Russians in Ukraine"
MajestÊ, oddly, is a word with an aura of high respect to it. Think "majestic". We need a more relevant and accurate expression for this situation. Lèse Tangerine? Lèse Fondling Father?
"If you don't test, you don't have cases"
the ending of this explainer might surprise you
That Trump could ever be nominated, let alone elected, was in retrospect a symptom of how profoundly broken this country was. Trump is that tumor that has built up over time. By the time you find out, things are bad.
Who the f uses it for multi turn conversations. Itâs a talking kitchen timer that can also turn on lights.
âHold my beerâ is his superpower. I mean, everyone who goes on Rogan comes out smelling a little funny and sounding less serious from the experience but that dude went in there with his gold chain and made everyone else look like Guardians Of The Principles.
Sadly it really comes down to âwill SCOTUS let him do itâ and we already know what the answer to that is.
Worldâs most famous ballroom dancer needs space for his moves.
Every damn number coming out of these people:
Every job and inflation report from now on:
The point was that we canât possibly trust mentions of Trump in the files being legit but of course every other name is legit
And the tariffs will both be stunningly successful at eliminating imports but fail so poorly as to replace trillions of revenue from income taxes.
So the Democrats who wrote the fake files put Clinton 28 times in there? That convention speech did suck but man, thatâs cold.
Can confirm
âIfâ hereby legally permitted to go on strike.
As a rule, people who send you birthday cards about your âwonderful secretsâ might not be the most reliable
Yes. And maybe who he thinks he is entitles him to troll people with hot takes. I couldnât care less.
I literally argued that the "previously perfect world" was an illusion because we had all the same crazies but don't let that get in the way of your adolescent hot take.
I am inclined to give the guy who walked away from a coup attempt the benefit of the doubt when it comes to walking-away-from-crime expertise.
He mostly believes in so many stupid made-things which sort of makes me wonder about agreeing with him.
Libraries, those famous airplane museums.
âWe gave them 1/50th of what they need after giving billions worth of weapons being rained on them and still they do not want us to turn it all into condos. Such ingratitudeâ. 100% on brand.
Some of these people do lie. This might be a case of being too ignorant to know.
I donât really see anybody shooting for half an audience as much as half the country being so triggered by any perceived criticism they demand everything to be a safe space for their feelings because they are so tired of âsensitive libtard snowflakesâ
One of those rare times when I have to google something and feel cooler for not having know what itâs about.
âNo salad as a mealâ has such a strong generational motto vibe. Great place nonetheless.
I wonder if the main reason this is much discussed really comes down to the weird assumption that tech was immune to a practice we have known from other industries for decades: from manufacturing to finance, layoffs and profitability were often concurrent. Tech has matured to being like the rest.
Casting "lack of gender" isn't super easy given how many actors are clearly male or female. A dude well known for portraying the no-longer-human (vampire), the not-socialized-with-humans (Tarzan) or the doesn't-give-a-shit-about-other-humans (tech CEO) may not be the worst choice lol
Alternatively, the rest of the world isn't run by a gaggle of sycophantic toddlers whose need to obtain a literal own goal on behalf of their senile, delusional idiot boss takes precedence over their actual responsibilities to their country.
"We've spent the past 5+ years demanding the files Obama wrote be released" says man who believes he is a genius.
Another factor driving workforce size in gov is anemic investment budgets i.e. labor substitutes for modern technology. It can even be a legal requirement: the ATF's National Training Center cannot use computers and thus needs easily 25x the manpower. And guess which party is usually behind both.
Given that this used to be Dan Scavino's full time job, I expect this person to have a White House job with a $180k salary any time.
The one whale driven loco by turbines sits on the right in this video.
It's almost like the internet enables bubble/cult creation as a side effect. And social media automated it as a business model. But I still struggle to name bizarre beliefs people could have held in the 80s that they didn't. They were less adamant and organized about them. Degree, not kind.
Sort of relatedly, had a chat with a younger colleague who was genuinely curious about growing up pre-internet. They seemed pretty sure it was far saner than it was. Gave them many examples of brain rot and how enabling those folks to connect fast and at no cost feels like most of the difference.
âMy fragile feelings were triggered, you sensitive libtard snowflakeâ and cats might be 90% of the internet
Trump is the snowflake president: triggered by everything, demands the government make the whole country a safe space for his little feelings.
This little bitch is begging for a one way ticket to CECOT
Look at these cute kids
I didnât know Nala was anti-social.
The muppet says in a quote post.
Oooh so it was worth it. For whom? For your little feelings or Palestinians? Yeah you are the one suffering here. đ
Point out punishing Biden made things worse for Palestinians in every respect and the idiots come out in full force
The people who helped elected the guy who wants to pave over Gaza with condos. Clearly focused on Palestinians.
