That was a joy to read.

I’m sorry to tell you I am one of those people, as is my family. Every so often I have a moment of clarity about it, but it doesn’t last long.

I can’t tell you how much humor I found in this response to that comment. 😁

Let me just say I love an effing Payday. And recently I discovered this, which is kinda like a Payday if the center part was hollwed out into a tube and filled with peanut butter. So damn delicious.

This video has been around since before the trial, tells you everything you needed to know about Rittenhouse’s intentions. https://youtu.be/l3B_tpccOnw

Meta: The company whose products you use when you absolutely, positively, don’t give a shit that they are the worst example of the worst nightmare of a consumer-hostile, privacy-invading, you-are-the-product, tech company. Yes, even worse than Microsoft.

LOL, even “brain” would have worked better.

An officer then allegedly pulled a sealed emergency release button that shut the MRI machine down, deactivating it, evaporating thousands of liters of helium gas and damaging the machine in the process.

Everything was fine until dickless here shut off the containment grid.

Missouri’s Republican attorney general, Andrew Bailey, has fought to allow the execution to proceed.

"The attorney general’s office, who had nothing to do with this whatsoever, are the ones who are trying to lead him to the death chamber. It’s pretty startling and extraordinary.”

I recognize that this is a horrible tragedy for this man and his family, and I hope there is somehow a last-second reprieve, but let this be yet another reminder - R is the party for those with no empathy, no compassion, no concern for anyone not like them. (and that includes the ones jumping from Trump’s sinking ship to cozy up to Harris.) If a Republican is running for any position in your town, any at all, vote for someone else.

Not offended, just seemed like you thought I was excusing it. I’m not - just acknowledging it. 🙂

Unbridled corporate greed and the always relevant racism…

Sorry, musta missed it.

🤷‍♀️

I totally agree with your comment that I replied to. But I also know that making literally anything a requirement for gun ownership is a bridge too far for enough gun owners that I am doubtful we’re going to see any meaningful new restrictions anytime soon.

At least until the right stops salivating for a second civil war, but even that might not be enough for some sane attitudes to prevail.

JD Vance: See, just like I said, I created “stories so that the American media actually pays attention,” and now these Haitian businesses are getting the community support that they needed, just as planned!

Dude, we’re on the same side in this, I just know what some battles have already been lost.

Fair point!

Right there with you, but there’s no legal expectation of privacy in public, so it’s futile to complain about on that basis. Especially when ring doorbell cams are everywhere already. So the silver lining is a security robot won’t do this.

On the one hand, yes, on the other hand, it’s unlikely to brutalize or kill people for minor offenses, so maybe a win for a public space?
