Can’t even be relied on to feed it’s people.

The biggest fucking joke of an empire in human history.

Having a grimy, fingered little brother is always fun.

Look, he may be grimy, but kink shaming isn’t cool. He can be fingered whenever he feels like it.

“well you see, it’s perfectly reasonable that he murdered a surrendered soldier, as he was just following orders!”

The “just following orders” defense still going strong 80 years later.

I’m sure it’s going to be used a lot in the coming decades, assuming the governments actively involved in horrifying human rights abuses ever see any sort of reform…

I hadn’t heard about this before this morning.

Now I want to watch everything that was going to be presented.

You know you’re winning at life and on the right side of history when you threaten people’s families to prevent them from showing an indie movie.

go fuck a duck

Poor duck…

I have never heard anyone say they don’t like The Mummy.

The people I have introduced to it have all loved it, and only two people have commented on the CG looking a little dated.

And for some it was their “oh I might be bi” moment.

10/10 movie, any time I see references to it I have to re-watch the movie.

Turns out “market forces” was just the heavy metal poisoning talking, they were just hallucinating magical economics.

Lead in gasoline and household products really fucked with some generations, hard.

“EU considers following modern Nazi policy”

If I give France $1,000,000,000 to use a specific shade of color, but make the color on Brazilian machinery owned by Brazilians… I’ve still given France $1B. Have I not?

I guess Google just says “fuck 'em”?

Yes, 100%, absokutely correct.

Google is a company.

Companies do not care about you. You are not a person, you are a number.

SNAKE?!

You ask a bunch of questions about a task in order to convince the client that the task doesn’t need to be done at all.

I ask a bunch of questions because I’ve forgotten half the answers already and am trying to make enough stick that I can make something close enough they don’t notice my attention is wandering while they blather.

We are not the same.

But you know… It’s TOTALLY politics to not want your money going to people who want you dead, so RULE 3 GUYS RULE THREEEEEEEEEEEEE

Yeah I got mildly excited when I read the title, and now I’m just mildly irritated.

Good for pc players though, it’s something!

I’m learning a bit of sign language since my wife will likely be fully deaf inside 10 years, and one day we were in a food court and I saw two people arguing in ASL.

One of them started getting larger and more abrupt with their movements and the other interrupted to sign “Don’t yell at me.”

I wasn’t paying enough attention to know what they were arguing about, but it made me giggle a bit at the phrasing.

Ooh, sweet! A middle eastern country that Americans can name is making improvements!

Military Industrial Complex: absolutely fucking not

It’s crazy how quickly things can improve when global superpowers aren’t fucking carpet bombing them.

m sorry to insult your coworker

Don’t be, most of them are barely more capable than apes. And that’s mildly insulting to a few ape species. With a little training, the apes would be far more capable and understanding.

This one in particular isn’t the worst, but when he’s on drugs he can be.

Most of them are racist, homophobic, transphobic, antisemitic, Islamophobic, xenophobic in general… At least nobody has been wearing the Civil War Losers Flag. Well, several of them do wear plain white cut-offs…

A coworker of mine was dangerously close to connecting some of the dots yesterday.

He started complaining about how things are getting more expensive, and how the company we work for has started buying things from overseas because even with tariffs it’s cheaper than buying American made, and then came the stunning part.

He said “They say they have to raise prices because of terrorists or some shit, but how do WE know if that’s true? How do we know there ARE any terrorists and it’s not just all bullshit made up by politicians and the news to justify raising prices so they can get rich.”

And then he took a hard right turn and added that “all those goddamn r****d democrats in congress” are to blame.

So close.

I don’t trust an ICE thug to know the difference between night and day, let alone different asians/pacific islanders.

The ONLY Asians I’d expect them to be able to identify are russians.

questioned whether there was sufficient evidence of uncontacted peoples in the area, saying the territory had been tied up for nearly two decades

“it’s been 1/5 of a human lifespan, obviously nobody is still there since I haven’t seen them.”

As if they’d all have died off in 20 years or nobody contacting them somehow makes it fair game?
