They also determined it does not constitute a bribe because the gift does not hinge on an official act.

Right. Just out of the goodness of their hearts then. A belated housewarming gift.

Even the idea that it’s your heritage… I’m sorry, I thought your heritage was being an American. It’s been nearly 250 years since the country was formed, including many of the states of the confederacy. Even the youngest state that seceded, Texas, has been in the union for 180 years. It was a part of the union for over 15 years before seceding for 4, too, almost 4 times as long. But no? It’s the 4 years that matter most? The 4 year period where the racist slavers seceded because they wanted to make sure they could continue to own humans as livestock and deny rights, freedoms and even basic human decency to people for the color of their skin or their genetic ancestry? Where they fought and died to protect THAT institution and way of life? That’s your heritage? … well, ok, then. But that sounds pretty fucking racist, doesn’t it?

Yea, American immigration laws have been explicitly racist for the majority of our history. It is only in the last 50-60 years that they have been more low key racist.

They paid money for this burn.

Ugh. I hate that smug spiteful loud bitch.

They always were allowed, you fascist fuck.

Lighten up or fuck off

Ah, yeah, that adds up. The strip club and everything.

Obviously the joke of the meme itself is that video games are a lot of things to a lot of people, many of them quite wholesome. It’s not just tits and masculine power fantasies. But if you stick someone who already leans toward that way of thinking in front of a screen and make them play GTA… yea, that’s gonna be a deep hole to dig out of. Maybe she has seen the memes and come around to the idea that there are other sorts of stories in gaming. Probably not, but maybe.

I don’t know if I have just forgotten or never actually knew, but what is she actually reacting to in the original video that she dislikes exactly?

Bread requires a number of other tools, cooking techniques and inventions to come around before it makes sense that it was invented. It has definitely been around a long long time, but many inventions predate homosapien, and I doubt bread predates agriculture by much if at all.

What is interesting though is that what likely coincided with the invention of bread was the invention of beer. They’re a pretty small hop away from one another.

Tasteless isn’t even the word. It’s like anti-taste, negative taste, taste-less.

If anyone in the administration is definitely a Nazi, it is Miller. It’s not even a question. He absolutely lives to victimize minorities and stir up white fear. The whole CRT thing, DEI, all of these anti-“woke” talking points… all his playbook. He is a vile excuse for a human being, the hateful piece of shit.

If this were a movie set in the South in the mid 1800s, he would be the slimiest pettiest most unnecessarily violent whip cracker on the plantation that would have the entire theater cheering when he finally got what was coming to him. And he is making policy in the highest office in the country. Unfortunately, this shit isnt a movie. There is no guarantee that things work out. But, maybe, we will get to cheer someday, and sooner rather than later, I hope.

What part of Hamas is evil and shouldn’t be tolerated did you not understand or ignore. Their actions are inexcusable as is their goals for Isreal. I do not want the Isreali people nor the Palestinian people to be killed or live in fear. Peace should be the goal. I do understand that that is far easier said than done and Isreali lives are under constant threat too, to some degree.

But no amount of evil from Hamas excuses the evil of Netanyahu’s genocide either. They are acting with callus disregard for human life, with violent fervor that mows everything down in their wake, even if their stated goal is 100 percent justified. We also cannot forget that there is plenty of prejudice and bigotry on both sides, and that plays no small part in the actions taken by many soldiers. There are no winners here, no good guys. There are just victims and victimizers. Stop pretending that a massacre is righteous. It is not.

Huh, funny. Becuase 2 million Palestinians live in the Gaza strip, 50,000 already dead by the Isreali offensive and Isreal’s government wants to completely wipe them all out or, at minimum, ethnically cleanse the area. So what does that make the Isreali government then?

Hamas are violent terrorists whose goals are evil. They should not be tolerated. But even by Isreal’s estimates, btw, Hamas has around 16-18,000 soldiers now, and had between 20-30,000 before the offensive started in 2023. So, AT MINIMUM 36,000 civilians or those unassociated with Hamas have been killed. They’re not killing Hamas. They’re killing everything in their way. That’s murder, not defense. That’s genocide, not war.

Asked in the interview whether U.S. citizens and noncitizens alike deserve due process as laid out in the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution, Trump was noncommittal.

“I don’t know. I’m not, I’m not a lawyer. I don’t know,” Trump said when pressed by Welker.

Do you need to be a lawyer to be aware of the Bill of Rights? He’s been President for more than 4 total years, head of the executive branch charged with executing the law for the entire country, has a whole staff of lawyers advising him, and has, himself, pled the 5th (!) and he’s still not even familiar with the 5th amendment?

Hold on, hold on. Let him cook…

How do you outlaw a boycott? It’s not an act, it’s a non-act. An absence of a purchase. How do you distinguish boycott from just not buying something you don’t want or need like any other item. Are we going to be required to put so much of our purchases toward Isreal now?

How is this not written be Dr. Spock?

Close up off monstrous, horrifying, dangerous gravity dragon… pull back and back and back, and realize it was 1000x magnified. It’s magnificent roar a barely audible squeak.
