So from what I can tell, here is all of the places Trump has threatened either directly or indirectly to send the U.S. military since taking office in January:
Greenland
Panama
Gaza
Canada
Ukraine
Mexico
Did I forget any? I realize the U.S. has one of the biggest militaries in the world, but I think maybe he’s going to stretch them a bit thin?
Murica, land of the free, was founded by people who owned slaves. While speaking about the evils of slavery.
So the madness was always there.
Farmer’s market farmers generally aren’t from giant corporate farms.
They can have a white supremacy issue though.
The WSB campaign to save it made no sense to me. So many better companies have gone under.
Yes. Ghouls. It was Ghouls. I will go back and inform Ali Baba of this horrifying development.
If I had lost touch with a friend and then suddenly I got some money they willed to me after they killed themselves, I would be pretty sad about it. Even if I had forgotten about them until I got the money. I’d also feel very guilty that we lost touch because I would think maybe I could have done something.
I don’t think it’s as easy as you think. It sure isn’t for me. There are a lot of friends I have lost touch with over the years that I think of often. And hope are still around.
I feel like this person is doing the serious version of what I say when I claim there’s a conspiracy against us left-handed people, when in reality we’re like 10% of the population.
Still makes it no less annoying to only have a potato peeler with a blade on the side where you can’t use it.
Your friends would almost certainly rather have you than any money you would give them.
I was in GT classes in middle school and my freshman year of high school and I absolutely did not belong there. But, you know, I liked teaching myself things so obviously I should be put in the class that made me do extra boring bullshit work.
Why yes, I did end up dropping out of high school and getting a GED.
Never been evaluated for ADHD, but I have basically all the symptoms my daughter, who definitely has ADHD, has, or had them at her age.
Why on Earth do you think the French Revolution happened because of a famine?
Yes, because it can inspire people. It’s a very inspiring story. People can be motivated to do things with their own lives by listening to it. I’m amazed this has to be explained to you why removing it is a bad thing.
Starving people don’t have much energy to violently revolt.
No, I’m not volunteering because I don’t think either thing will work. But the people calling for those things to happen are waiting for someone else to do it.
Also, how are things not bad enough right now? They’re sending people to Gitmo. Trump and Musk fired people who are responsible for safeguarding our nuclear weapons because they didn’t know what they did. People didn’t even notice despite it being all over the news. Or at least they didn’t notice enough to pick up their torches and pitchforks.
And that’s just the latest horrific thing he’s done in the past three weeks.
So what’s it going to take?
Maybe they value what they achieved despite having said origin story. I certainly consider that a value.
Maybe you don’t have such amazing achievements in your own life?
Isn’t that part of the problem? Everyone is waiting for the revolution to start. Everyone is waiting for the next Luigi. Everyone is waiting.
Nothing’s getting better, but someone will come and fix all these problems any time now and I’ll be on their side!
Taking lead out of wine? What’s next, using something other than lead in our plates and our makeup? Don’t be crazy.
May I make a humble request to not honor Erdogan’s absurd requirement that everyone call his country the name he wants it to be called, what with him being a fascist piece of shit?
Atatürk was fine with it being called Turkey by the West despite literally winning independence from European occupiers and founding the modern nation.
That should tell you all you need to know.
It was enough of a Nazi salute for the head of France’s far-right party, who are Nazis, to cancel his planned speech.
