That kinda sounds like something someone would say if they were planning to stop supporting Ukraine after the election.

He also noted that Donald Trump made it clear in his debate

Donald Trump didn’t make anything clear except his own mental decline. He was asked directly if he would continue to support Ukraine, and he said he wanted the war to end. That’s as muddy as he can make it, and it still implies he will kneel before Putin.

Criminals don’t expect to get caught.

No, but I’m a dad. My last gaming rig had a SoundBlaster card.

I have a PS5 and have never heard of this game. Why are you so keen to talk about it?

I understand this is satire, but the reviewer has missed the entire point of the movie. The Muppets weren’t intending to take in Manhattan and become New Yorkers. The movie is called the Muppets Take Manhattan, as in they bring Muppet mania, their zany brand of madcap melodies, to Broadway to the benefit of New York. Of course they didn’t see it all, you could live in New York for years and not see it all. The point was for New York to experience the majesty of the Muppets, not the other way around.

I think the joke here is anyone ever thinking the prices would go down under any circumstances.

Thank you! It’s been nearly 20 years since I watched the Simpsons regularly.

Wait, what’s the connection between raygun and the hawk tuah girl?

You know when a young child gets mad about the inherent injustice of bath time, so they pack a suitcase with their stuffed animal and a juice box and tell you they are running away from home? Like, you want to address their concerns, but they have so completely overestimated their own capabilities that you can’t help but feel patronizing. They even made a little model rocket.

No. I live in PA, and we have a similar law. I remember before it was passed, and seeing buggies with just the reflectors.

Close up, directly in front of lights, you can see reflectors fine, but your lights aren’t always pointing at them. Maybe it’s a curve or a hill, maybe they are approaching an intersection, but flashing lights can be seen from all angles.

Also, most Amish have no problem using modern technology when required. It’s not like a pathological fear, it’s a religious devotion to self-reliance. They use cell phones and power tools when they need to, and they hire “English” (non-Amish) to drive them in cars. Some are more insular than others, and they rarely get involved in politics, so they mostly just do whatever is required.

Shaggy with his “It Wasn’t Me” bullshit always rubbed me the wrong way. “My girl caught me fucking another woman.” Gaslight that bitch. “She was staring at me balls-deep in our neighbor on the floor of our bathroom.” Gaslight that bitch. “No, really, she was standing there watching us both, buck-ass naked. She never took her eyes off me. She knows what I look like. She knows our neighbor lady. I can’t believe I forgot that she has a key to my place, and she just walked in on us mid-coitus in the shower. I’m telling you, she’s not a fucking moron.” Gaslight that bitch.

Apparently the DNC doesn’t seem to think that people who oppose a genocide aren’t an important component of Harris’s victory.

I would argue that my kids have a lot to do with my continued employment, but not in any way that’s relevant to the analogy.

Voters get treated like children. Did I give the impression I thought that was a good thing?

My kids are 9 and 11. If they ask for something I want them to have, I get it for them. If they ask for something I don’t want them to have, I don’t get it for them.

They’re smart for their age, but they’re kids.

I think you’re torturing the metaphor a bit much. I just meant I don’t believe that Harris is going to listen to progressives on Israel. I wish she would, and I’m going to vote for her regardless because Trump would be far worse. But to say “Harris is listening” feels like an attempt to placate reasonable people who don’t want to support a genocide.

I honestly believe that he was backed into a corner and this was his out. His mouth wrote checks he literally couldn’t cash, and when he was forced to fork over the money, the spiteful little shit was like “Ok, well these oligarchs would like to see Twitter festroyed anyway, so let’s do that.”

Remember that Beyonce song about the guy who cheated on her, but it’s cool because she wasn’t that into him and the other guy she’s been seeing is on his way over to replace him?

Sometimes everybody sucks at being in a relationship.

Same way I listen to my kids tell me what they want from the grocery store. Maybe they get it, maybe they don’t, but it’s not a negotiation.

I didn’t look at the list, but housing prices are out of control in a lot of places, even if they haven’t hit that $1 million mark yet. A $750k starter home is just as absurd and out of reach for the vast majority of Americans.

We’re telling young people not to have kids and not to buy homes. And it’s everywhere, not just California.

Working poor people. Money always comes from working poor people.

Reagan was an extremist. He was just charismatic enough to make it charming. “The scariest words” bullshit really stuck, and he made it seem like the government was the enemy whilst running the government. Trump et al are just the next phase of the same process.
