As much as I agree with the sentiment, this strikes me as similar to when MAGAts would post pictures of empty store shelves during COVID and would say it’s what Biden’s America would look like. We all laughed because they were literally pictures of Trump’s America.
I understand that Trump is going to gut federal agencies but…this is happening right now. Under Biden’s watch.
The elephants aren’t without blame here.
I had totally forgotten about the Defeated One’s head getting yanked off and uh…how the hell did I forget about that? Shit was brutal.
I just finished my reread. 😁
For those who are unaware or curious, iOS can do this with your Guided Access settings. You can set it up to be unable to leave the app it’s currently in when you start Guided Access.
Hope this thing flops.
Why?
I like Wicked. I would’ve preferred a single-movie version, but there is a lot of plot kind of rushed or skipped over in the musical. If they go back to the source material of the book they can flesh some of that out nicely and give more context to the story.
It might be good! It might be terrible. I don’t know yet.
But why hope for it to flop?
Seriously. For people saying things don’t change, look back forty years. Reagan was elected in a landslide, winning every state but Minnesota, while refusing to talk about the AIDS crisis, and people acted like it was what “the gays” deserved. Within the last forty years we’ve not only practically ended AIDS in industrialized nations, but we have legalized gay marriage in the entire USA.
Go back sixty years and you’re at the Civil Rights Act. We just had the second major black candidate for president. She lost, sure, but the fact that she was one of the two candidates would’ve been unthinkable sixty years ago. Especially given that she would’ve been the second black president had she been elected.
The world is not perfect, and the better choices are certainly often flawed, but lines don’t go straight up. Progress takes time. And it can be hard to see in the moment, especially with setbacks like this election. But we are better off now than we were forty years ago, or sixty years ago.
Nah man, this is a picture of me. He’s wearing Skechers Slip-Ins, which recently replaced his New Balance sneakers.
This is what I’ve been saying all along. The Abandon Harris movement was orchestrated to disillusion voters and make them stay home. Just like what happened with Bernie bros.
The logic of it was completely flawed. And every argument about how strategic voting is important under first-past-the-post, and how Trump would certainly be a worse choice on the subject of Israeli genocide, was met with “maybe you can support genocide, but I can’t.” Which didn’t address the issue at hand at all.
Our country is full of rubes of all shapes, sizes, and colors. Some fall for Trump’s rhetoric and vote for him, others fall for shit like this and don’t vote.
Next you’re gonna tell us that the earth is flat because you’ve never experienced curvature. 🙄
- it destroys a lot of the nutrient value
Nope! STUDY AFTER STUDY shows that isn’t true in any meaningful sense.
Yeah I agree, they seriously need to rethink their strategy. I’m not absolving the party.
But voters abandoning the dems because they aren’t left enough still shot themselves in the foot.
The left falls in love, the right falls in line.
Isn’t Teams just Microsoft’s attempt to reinvent Skype for Business as a Slack clone? I didn’t think they’d acquired it (other than acquiring Skype and fucking that up, too).
Do you have a source for this?
Oh duh, lol 🤦♂️
*Hamas has killed more than 40 THOUSAND PEOPLE, by deliberately placing its military supplies and operations in and around civilian areas to maximize any collateral damage.
Okay, let me preface this by saying fuck Hamas. They’re horrible.
But, just for a moment, put yourself in the shoes of a resistance movement. Where are you supposed to put your supplies or operations? In bases far from civilian populations? You’ll just get bombed to shit.
No, you have to hide them. And unfortunately the easiest way to hide people and stuff is around other people and stuff.
Guerrilla warfare is the reality of modern combat in cases where a large, powerful military is fighting a smaller, weaker resistance.
This isn’t done so that your enemy can’t take out your operations and supplies without collateral damage, although that is a side effect. It’s primarily about not being taken out in the first place.
If you are the larger, powerful military, you need to adapt. You don’t get to blow up hospitals and schools and then blame your targets for hiding among civilians.
I don’t even have a microwave. I understand the concept, however I prefer home made meals.
Microwave is just a tool for heating stuff. You can use it for homemade meals, too, although you gotta know your machine and its limitations (just like any tool). It’s most useful for reheating stuff quickly, though.
Climb out of blanket cocoon. Pry open can. Empty into bowl. Fill can with water. Empty into bowl. Put in microwave for three minutes. Stir. Microwave for two minutes. Go back to huddling under blankets.
(Like I said, I mostly eat soup when I’m sick. Don’t care much about taste or quantity in that case.)
You’re not wrong in any way though.
Disillusionment campaigns worked. Same as in 2016 with the Bernie bros refusing to back Clinton.
Just needed enough noise about reasons NOT to vote for Kamala. And people would still vote the rest of the ticket, but not for her. Because we all forgot about the importance of strategic voting in FPTP.
Yeah security has never taken my resin vapes.
