Picture him in his trophy room, basking in his own imagined glory, mentally masturbating himself over the senseless killing of a completely innocent creature.

Nah, I’m good.

Hard to buy the idea that they accidentally removed the exact same parts from the page containing the full copy, the page containing just Article 1, and the links to said parts.

Like, that’s a pretty unlikely coincidence if it was just an accident…

Couldn’t hear the TV over my crunchy snacks

Can we split the difference and just say he fucking raped children?

Kamikaze failed successfully!

The answer: Yes!

The why: Why not?

ITT: A Lemmy Classic. Where we all agree with each other very angrily based on which part of the stuff we agree on comes first and then declare these similarities irreconcilable.

We rarely have other viable options. Long before most of us were born, the U.S. built an infrastructure centered around cars, sidelining other forms of transportation.

In America, owning a car is often the key to freedom of movement. So it’s no surprise people equate cars with freedom. Getting people to see how car dependency actually limits our freedom is like trying to wake someone from the Matrix.

I get you. Because I as a citizen of the world hold you personally accountable for Trump. Afterall, you as a human let your country let America do this. You should be ashamed.

Your country yielded power to America, spending years allowing America to police the world, and dictate international trade. You can say you didn’t want this, but you did want it, and you got it.

You are under the assumption the scientists listened to the bean counters. I on the otherhand think it’s more likely that any (mad) scientist who could make dinofrogs via genetic manipulation would intentionally splice the ability to self-transition into their creation.

“Demand I make my dinofrogs infertile will you!? I’ll show you… I’ll show all of you!!!”

Just a weeb shoehorning that shit in. At least shoehorn in the superior stereotypical shonen (dbz)

Lol, okay buddy baka

people who say they don’t like politics in videogames actually like politics even more, they just wish they were seeing different politics

I’ll take “broad questions that can only be answered in context” for $200 Alex.

Seriously, ask me this question on 10 different days in 10 different ways and I’ll never give the same answer.

Even in the context of your vanilla perfume hypothetical I don’t have enough information to answer. How severe a reaction, what percentage of the population is affected, where is the perfume wearer at the time, why hasn’t it been banned and/or what makes me an expert who’s opinion is worth a damn, etc etc etc?

From what little info I have on the hypothetical (either directly stated or assumed via omission), no, I wouldn’t be upset. I didn’t see anyone being harmed, the perfume wearer wasn’t doing anything illegal, I am personally unbothered by the perfume, and I’ve got my own shit to deal with.

Eta: To make this more clear, I am an ex smoker, who fully agrees that bans on smoking in public areas make sense, but am in no way personally bothered by cigarettes. I also think smoking is more apropos to the question than a mystery perfume, as the harm of smoking and 2nd hand smoke is well established.

If you are smoking on a crowded street, I’ll be upset. But in an alleyway to get away from the crowded street, good on ya, you did what you could.

Smoking near children, get fucked. Smoking while walking home from the pub when only other pub goers are around, you do you. Context is key.

Nah, the Republiklan got Trump elected twice by rejecting reality and substituting it with their own. Reality isn’t winning elections anymore (hell, maybe it never was). People who inspire passion are. I would back AOC before another milquetoast Dem any day.

Plus, it wasn’t just “women candidates” who lost. Hillary had decades in politics for the Right Wing Propaganda machine to attack. And Kamala had literally no time to build up support. AOC on the otherhand is honestly quite popular amongst her constituency and progressives nationwide. She is someone people vote for.

I placed my votes for Kamala, Biden, and Hillary, but they were all votes cast because of Trump. It would be so fucking nice to cast a vote for the candidate I want to win again.

…but you can’t make it think

“Here at Zohran Grocers, we’re chopping prices down to size! Don’t lose your heads over these great deals!”

Oh that one, yeah… no fuckin clue. Maybe a cyberman from Dr Who, but like… wearing a suit?

I’m thinking the silhouette of a classic Area 51 style alien.
