That was beautiful. Thank you for sharing that!

This is exactly how he got elected in 2016. All he does is lie and attack and people believe him. If the moderators pushed him even slightly on his lies instead of allowing him to spew whatever bullshit he wanted for two minutes, the night would have gone much differently. Instead, Joe had to spend half of his time refuting clear lies instead of talking about his accomplishments.

Compared to what they were likely thinking, “Blacks for Trump” is downright progressive for them.

I love how they advertise “up to 20% off a steam deck,” but that’s only for refurbished and there’s none in stock.

Tarantulas are extremely fragile creatures. She probably killed that poor thing.

On the flip side, if it’s a new world tarantula, then they have highly irritating hairs that they’ll spray in the air. Those hairs would be more dangerous than a bite, as a spider has little to no interest in attacking an ape 50x its size.

Well, it’s not wrong…

It means they are pushing on both the brake and accelerator at the same time. In essence, they are revving the engine, engaging the power train AND applying brake force to it all at the same time.

What frightens me is when you see a vehicle put on their brake lights while they are clearly accelerating. I tend to back way away from that type of driver.

A strict history centric approach would make him property.

Does anyone else feel like she’s ramping up her media attention for a 2028 presidential run?

It just seems odd since she went silent after 2016 and now it seems like she’s trying to get in the headlines again.

God I hope she doesn’t run.

The Black Panthers open carrying is exactly what led California governor Reagan to enact the strictest gun laws in the country.

The solution to the paradox of tolerance is looking at it as a social contract. If one person tries to use your tolerance to violate your, or others rights, they are no longer protected by the agreement and do not get to benefit from it.

I wish I could find the article about it, but I can’t seem to find it now. Sorry.

This was the catalyst I needed to switch to self hosting rustdesk. It was a bit of a pain setting up, but people comfortable with cli would handle it much better than I did.

Arachnophobe here. I regret entering this comment section.

The bill, titled the Antisemitism Awareness Act, would mandate that the Education Department adopt the broad definition of antisemitism used by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance, an intergovernmental group, to enforce anti-discrimination laws.

Further down:

The letter pointed in part to an example of antisemitism included in the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s definition, which says antisemitism could include “denying the Jewish people their right to self-determination, e.g., by claiming that the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavor.”

Keep in mind, under the U.S. House’s new bill, criticizing this counts as antisemitism.

To misquote Office Space: he’s “a straight shooter with Presidential Candidate written all over him.”

Joking aside, when your taste in wives is reprehensible enough to make mid 19th century men uneasy, you’re a fucking horrible person.

This is absolutely to punish him for bringing the corruption to light. I’d wear this excommunication as a badge of honor, but I’m not Catholic.
