To be perfectly clear, it isn't just Luigi fans saying political violence is sometimes justified. The second amendment says it is.

There's an insufferable ethos, particularly among journalists at legacy publications, that the gravest sin you can commit is to show your convictions. Part of it is a decades-long fear campaign to smear them as having liberal bias, but it's mostly born of a failure to understand journalism's purpose

This pope once said "hey maybe the poors are people, too" and the tradcath backlash is gonna be so strong the next 50 years are gonna be under Cardinal Heinrich VonEvabraun Mengele of Buenos Aires.

Having a kid with Elon Musk and getting mad that he abandoned your child is like marrying the pope and getting pissed your husband is a catholic.

I don't have an email address, but in the last week I've worked 6 days on 5 routes serving more than 10,000 people, delivering more than 700 tracked items and more than 10,000 pieces of mail, all while you did ketamine shots with a 19 year old edgelord named Big Ballz and ignored child support pleas

There's been a quiet comfort the last few days of having even a couple of my more conservative customers telling me they hope the post office survives. But also, like, sorry, but I'm not holding out hope that you'll ever do a Cause And Effect analysis on this situation.

I worked for years in service jobs, tipped and untipped, and the bar for making my day better was just so low, man. It takes so little as a customer to do it, and there's no excuse not to. Even just a short casual convo that makes them feel like they don't have to stick to a corporate script

It'll fit right in alongside Holocaust Remembrance Day

Cheating on the years a bit here, but only because this is close to the most wrong critics have ever been about a movie.

I don't know!!! I'm just some guy!!! Stop yelling at me!!!

Starts out kinda normal, takes a terminal Gen X lead poison turn at the very end. Deleting Facebook, washing eyes with bleach.

I actually appreciate the whole judicial system going the extra mile with Luigi just to make it abundantly clear to anyone who might not be paying attention, that they consider CEO murder to be an Extra Special level of bad, because they are better than us.

Imagine trying to overthrow the federal government, getting thrown in the clink, somehow stumbling ass backward into being pardoned by the only dude in the country who would ever let you off for that, and ending up immediately back in jail because you just couldn't help but punch a woman.

Are there even any of these people left who didn't just go full fascist or tradcath or some shit?

I dunno seems like if getting federal aid is conditional on what state you live in, the residents of that state should be able to make their federal taxes conditional, too.

Why had bluesky made it so if one of two users in a back and forth exchange blocks the other, *no one* from outside of those two can any longer see the full exchange threaded? Seems dumb!

Every American spy is about to be Brad Pitt doing Italian in Inglourious Basterds

Not only did I have a father in my household growing up, he knew how to say "I love you, son," which is probably why my entire political identity didn't become a cartoon villain screaming "soon the world will know my pain"

I appreciate the haste with which the Postal Board of Governors hired lawyers to sue Trump if he fires them, but USPS's independence is quite well established legally. At a certain point you just gotta ignore his orders the same way a Starbucks barista should if he walked in and tried to fire them

Trump guys who followed leftists onto bluesky just to pick more fights with them remind me the kid in 5th grade whose parents got our valentine's card exchange canceled because not all the kids were getting enough valentines.

"We inherited all these problems, it's Biden's fault" is such a funny line from guys who started blaming Biden for the economy on Jan 21st, 2021. Hell, I remember when Obama was elected and Fox News had a segment in February of that year called "When can we start saying this is Obama's economy?"
