I'd rather 100 guys like this than a single "polite centrist" who "just has concerns" about me using the toilet

once again I have to invoke the specter of Ronald Wilson Reagan, who is in Hell now. under Reagan, the term "government spending" was effectively demonized. fuck you, Reaganite ghouls! spending money, on its people and their needs, is the function of government! public works are good! say so!

I want a hitman TV show but the show never focuses on 47 instead you get a day in the life of some horrible person, where at the end of each episode randomly 47 comes in and kills them quickly and efficiently and walks away also you see 47 in the background doing some shit throughout the episodes

Anyway, now that a Texan like Al Green has your attention, I need you “Abandon the South” Liberals in particular to eat shit.

not going to lie it’s pretty bleak that we’re having to explain to people who are supposedly democrats as to why ronald reagan was bad

I remain stunned that we don’t have a half dozen Democratic senators competing to see who can be the biggest thorn in Trump’s side.

Reagan is one of history's greatest monsters for a multitude of reasons, but did you know he tried to exterminate trans people in the 80s too? Reagan's presidency invited Janice Raymond to author policy that stripped anyone who accessed trans healthcare of access to federal health insurance...

At max, you can expect to infect 5-7 people with COVID. That’s considered pretty transmissible, which is why we (tried to) lock down about it. An infected person will give measles to 16-18 other people. It’s extremely virulent It’s long past time for you to wear a mask again.

ppl getting angry at this but he's talking alliances and he's 100% right- you cannot trust a country where every 4 yrs the foreign policy does a complete 180 & tears up treaties and reneges on deals and withholds payments because some sheep farmers in Wisconsin think too many black women have jobs

Supporters Praise Trump For Upholding Traditional American Value Of Supporting Murderous Dictators For Political Gain

I feel as if we're capable of acknowledging that a one-day boycott is mostly symbolic without becoming contemptuous and dismissive of people finding a little meaning and comfort in such a symbol. The scorn seems petty.

Tate is like Trump in this sense: the most grotesque thing is not that he exists, but that he’s hugely popular, and what that says about us as a species.

In this rambling babble, Trump says that they sent the email to see “if people exist.” He also said they have to go to Fort Knox to see if the gold really there. Never expected “object permanence” to be a problem for a sitting president, but here we are.

This games industry bloodbath is because of corporate mismanagement and pure, unrestrained avarice. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

It's willingly ignorant to assign blame for AAA games studios being shuttered at anything other than corporate mismanagement and incompetence from an avaricious executive class. This is an industry where corporate suits saw monkey jpegs and thought "Yes, this is the future of gaming!"

This is your regular reminder that government mandated backdoors for end-to-end encrypted comms are bullshit, make everyone less safe, and should be resisted at maximum volume.

Oh NO. Lmaooo. Dems. Please fucking clean up your own house. Maybe now we know why Kamala's campaign went all in on Cheney and stopped saying weird. We had literal voting Republicans running her campaign.

obvious to most people who will see this, but worth stating directly: it doesn't really matter if the person being targeted is cis or trans to the people who want this shit enforced. partly because it enforces a specific idea of gender presentation, but also because it still drives a wedge anyway.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

I was at a punk show in 83 where a skinhead jumped up on stage and gave a Nazi salute. The bass player hit him with his bass, knocking him into the crowd and 150 people collectively hauled his ass out of the venue and threw him in the mud. This was the right and only appropriate response.

“Obama thinks he’s king!” was a pretty powerful rallying cry in the Tea Party revolts of 2009-2010 and that was, you know, WITHOUT HIS WHITE HOUSE LITERALLY DEPICTING HIM AS A KING

While most "you couldn't make that today" complaints are just whining about natural & inexorable shifts in cultural mores over time, one show that I genuinely think you would not be allowed to produce or market today is Captain Planet and I think it's interesting that nobody ever says so.

After 49 years incarcerated for a crime he did not commit, today Native American political prisoner Leonard Peltier is finally going home to the Turtle Mountain Reservation. He never lost hope and kept his spirits high. #AlphabetChallenge #WeekHforHeroes #portrait #LeonardPeltier

whenever my cat complains about me not feeding him more than three times a day I have developed a habit of showing him great works of art that depict suffering (The Pieta, The Rape of Lucretia, The Fall of Nineveh) and explain in detail how his own pain greatly exceeds that depicted

I do think Democrats should actually put a lot of this dumb shit into motion and make republicans vote for it because I can’t imagine anyone getting more pissed off than not being able to deposit a check because it’s Donald Trump Day, having to stay home with the kids because it’s Trump Day

seen a sentiment from a few people now expressing or implying a desire to transition but feeling unable due to the current political climate. while fear of the future is completely reasonable, waiting for a "good time to transition" will waste your life. it will never not feel scary at first

I don't think it's obvious because of the overwhelming amount of chaos in the news, but this is the biggest shift in American foreign policy since 1945. This is a titanic shift, and I'm not sure anyone knows what the result is going to be.
