Ex Tech Writer. Otherwise, old, friendly troll that's probably been in your chat. Oh, and I have 6k hours in Satisfactory (the game, not in making you happy).

Watts? Zoot Suit? Might as well get the historical stuff in there. NG were deployed for one of them. Servicemen started the other.

Many societies have fallen because of the antics of incompetent dipshits in power. Not in recent history, but many came very close.

They do. Limited to a chosen few that will enact the will of the head fascist. Other branches of government just get in the way. Which is why the current US fascists are trying to destroy them.
As for violence: I would like to see their heads bronzed, labeled, and mounted on the WH South Fence.

Well, y'see, the damage he and his cronies have done in 3 months might be made worse if they are left in place for 3. More. Years.

"...and who sued because an Australian woman used her real name for her business that was the same as her own fake name. And won."

They were being kind in the reporting. The cardinal was sent to a recent convert that hasn't even had a catechism. He was told not to lecture other parishioners, and particularly The Church itself, about what being a Christian means. That's the province of The Church's priests.

Doesn't she also believe in copious amounts of alcohol?

T-shirt isn't mentioned as a party, is he? Why would animus even matter to an unnamed party? Either I'm misunderstanding something or they are admitting that the firm should instead add T-pose directly as a defendant.

It is important, though. It drives views on the back end. Bad joke -> ignores next 30 seconds because they are internally complaining, which contains important information to know - > rewatch.

Any chance we can fund a Times Square billboard for a day with this video on repeat?

Any of the Rincewind books. If she has a good inner ear (can imagine voices), tell her Rincewind is Eric Idle. Maybe even try The Color of Magic so you can rent the movie after.

The takeover of the Republican party in the 1960s, orchestrated by Thurmond and Nixon and involving, "bi-partisan supporters from across the aisle," started with about a dozen congressman.

Classicist: Wee Free Men or Mort
Scientist: Pyramids
Lawyer: Raising Steam or Wintersmith
D&D player: The Hogfather or The Last Continent
Film Noir: Mort, Reaper Man, or Moving Pictures
I think I got all those right. BTW, very nice. The boxes are a great touch. I'm jealous.

I only wish it were five. My wife and I talked and concluded that we will have to work until we drop dead at the office.
Which is what every CEO and BoD dreams of.

No worries. I sometimes fall into idiom holes myself.

I kinda wish, "Drink/drank the koolaid," would disappear when used out of context. "Would drink the koolaid," would be a better choice. If they had drunk the koolaid, we wouldn't have to worry about them anymore.
For those wondering why, lookup pictures of the Jim Jones cult aftermath.

Mortuary makeover. Although, most morticians try to preserve reality.

They certainly have a better shot against the Eagles than Kansas City did.

Best part of this is you _know_ the chorus director had to ask each individual if they were okay with this. Look at the number that said, "Yes."

All Dems should develop a limp. To help with the sudden pain they should all have canes. All the canes should look suspiciously like beefy axe handles. They like the old days? How about 1856? Bang the canes on the desks in protest.

I mean, how hard could the Danish language be? Has to be easier than trying to understand willfully ignorant people voting against their own interests and then wailing about it.
I'm buying Language books and a translating dictionary - right now.

5000 books, 500 pages each, with, "Haw Haw, we won," on each and every page. Except for the unsold, personally autographed, mistranslated Bibles he peddled.

The path of non-violence is not one of pacifism.

The nice thing about ambassadors is that the foreign government can refuse them entry, refuse to listen to them, or elect to never have meetings with them. (Although the first may be covered by treaty.)
They also have the right to close the embassy entirely.

Add the Arcane and now everything works, but only because of this particular piece of code that no one understands, no one knows who put it there, and no one can tell what it does.

I like the Yellow one. Exploration of pigmentation? Light and reflection?

I enjoy your sense of humor and perseverant activism. Can we leave Twitter posts on Twitter, though? If I wanted to be reminded what a cesspool of imitation thought existed there I'd still be there. As to the generators of the content you have shared here, I need only remember who they voted for.

When the last rat huddles over the last body of its kin, sides heaving, mouth bloody, I request this: record that rat as it tears itself asunder.

It's simplistic, but my take away from this is the various State's use of those funds was ineffective for the parents, so they want to eliminate it for everyone? Is that too much simplification?

Make it seem like a verbal gaff. "[celebrity] wroted [this book]." Then correct the gaff.
