  • I mean, it’s a different kind of lovable. Capivaras have that “I know what you did and I’m not happy with you but I’m not going to make a scene right now but just you wait until we get home mister” look. Which is endearingly sweet when you’re not the direct recipient, and even if you are, you know it comes from a place of love.





  • And just who are you to presume to correct anybody’s point of view? Because telling me that commies and fascists like to send people to gulags is doing nothing to change anybody’s mind. Let’s face reality here: that doesn’t hit anywhere close to home, especially when you have so much right-wing media spinning it around and justifying it.

    The issues that actually hurt most people, your working class and poor people, are toxic to democrats because they need policies that will hurt their traditional pocket fillers.

    They all chose, a long time ago, to serve their masters, and it’s now coming to the breaking point: people can no longer afford to pay rent and basic necessities with their job.

    This is when all hell breaks loose, the social contract breaks down, and you have incompetent psychopaths elected into power - because people are desperate and they want shit to change.

    You can keep yelling at the top of your lungs that the alternative is awful and horrible and Hitler and gas chambers, but what you’re ever more likely to hear is that “well, at least it ends the despair”.

    But sure, ignore everything and keep being as perplexed as most other democrats as to why people keep voting for that buffoon.


  • I dont get it.

    OPs cartoon makes it clear that the dems are oposed to left-wing policies, so commie guy refused to vote against his interests.

    The problem isnt commie guy, it’s all the other brainless sheep who keep voting for the same two parties who don’t represent them.

    Consider this: if all the people forced to vote opted to vote someone else, then the Dems would really understand why they’re failing, and more, you’d have the basis for an actual third party to from.

    But instead you and other dimwits keep preaching the same old 2 party rethoric who has been fucking you over for decades.

    For the past 600 years, the pope has always been a cardinal.

    The last time someone other than a cardinal was elected was 1296, they elected some monk who was something of a holy figure. It was a clusterf*"#, lasted 5 months and every decision he made was reversed by it’s successor except for one (the right for pope’s to abdicate). Which kinda sounds like Bidens term in office, but let’s not give him another chance at being useless, ok?

    (There were some other non-cardinals after, but all of them clergy, and mostly during or shortly after the Avignon papacy)





  • I mean, whatever works for you and for your relationship.

    I’m sure some relationships are like you described, and that does seem asphyxiating, but there’s a middle ground where one can trust a partner with shared finances knowing that they are responsible and that big ticket items are discussed and agreed between the two.

    As for secrets, it depends. If it is something that relates directly to my partner and affects them, I will tell them always. Otherwise, no. There’s no expectation from them that I’ll share every last secret about everyone they know, or vice versa.
