We’ve just learned from the Civil Rights movement…
Black men and women tried exercising their First Amendment rights, but nobody listened until they exercised their Second Amendment rights.
- Comment on It's a wild life out there! 22 hours ago:
Americans are trained through 12 years of public education to become docile if or when they protest.
The only characters of the Civil Rights movement that are mentioned in public school are MLK and Rosa Parks.
Practically no mention of Malcom. Everything I learned of the Black Panthers through my public school career, was from watching Forest Gump. BLA? Fannie Lou Hamer? Ruthie? Never heard of 'em.
Obviously pacifism is the way to get your message across, right?
Except it fell on deaf ears until black men and women started showing up armed.
- Comment on Sean Connery in 1964 (on the set of Goldfinger) and Thomas Brodie-Sangster in 2024. Both age 34 in their respective photos. 1 day ago:
Yeah. That was a surprisingly good show.

He was the kid in Love Actually who learned the drums.
More recently he was the dude in The Queens Gambit. I forget if he was a love interest or an antagonist but he was in it.

Shit I thought it were a disco.

Rifle bags?
- Comment on Ketamine addict Elon Musk believes puppets are attacking him 4 days ago:
Let’s be real here. Elon Musk would find plenty of reasons to come at any puppet show.
(Because they are attended by children. The insinuation is that he is a pedophile, you see).
- Comment on Reincarnated As My Best Friend’s Kid in Another World 4 days ago:
Both my kids are exactly like me, except with opposite varieties of ADHD.
I can’t stand it.
Love em to death but man just because they are like me doesn’t make them more predictable. In my case, they’re completely unpredictable…just like I was.

Do turkeys try to fuck hens?
I’d never seen it myself. I’ve got a lot of hens, and for a while I had a very busy rooster (my town doesn’t let us keep roosters though)…but the wild turkeys around here, while they are plentiful, tend to avoid my yard.
- Comment on It used to be the easy solution to get rid of any woman that you didn't like 1 week ago:
A lot of the “witchy” things women would do back then was actually just a cover for gossip. There ain’t shit in the tea leaves, she’s just having a coded conversation with her fellow women.
Later we just started saying they were hysterical and send them to an asylum for insane women. How do you prove you’re not crazy when you’re just a weak-minded woman and psychology barely exists as a field of medicine?
Now we just straight up ignore them.
- Comment on Doesn't want to pay child support. Denies he is the father of this boy 1 week ago:
Maybe his brother knocked up his girl? Or his dad?

Keep on rollin’ baby.
Aww yeah.
- Comment on Console market craters as Xbox sales crash 33% to the lowest since launch 25 years ago, PS5 sales drop 25% 1 week ago:
Honestly, almost every console runs on my PC. Why not just make Microsoft Xbox for Linux?
- Comment on Console market craters as Xbox sales crash 33% to the lowest since launch 25 years ago, PS5 sales drop 25% 1 week ago:
Ahead of its time, IMO. And honestly should not even have wireless. Might be usable in grandma’s house out in the middle of the woods (unless Grandma’s got a shit-ton of IoT stuff…or one cheap security camera), but just about anywhere else it’s far too unreliable.

Exclusives.
Legit the only reason.

Dave’s not here, man.

Tbf, Eric Carle gaslit generations of kids, telling them that butterfly catepillars spin a cocoon.
It’s called a chrysalis!

In Soviet Russia, briches too big for you!

Whoa, hordes of pills swallowed easily.
- Comment on How our patience level has changed 3 weeks ago:
Wifi is not internet.
If your internet is slow, yeah, that’s a service/country problem.
Wifi is slow for a bajillion reasons completely unrelated to the service. The biggest one being modems/routers out-of-the-box defaulting to the same channel – particularly a problem when everyone in the same building has the same damn ISP-issued modem.

Thanks Obama!
- Comment on Hard Out There For A Woman 3 weeks ago:
Sure. But there’s a biological component to sexual attraction. Hence the more important part of what I said, intellect is supposed to be sexy.
- Comment on Hard Out There For A Woman 3 weeks ago:
Intellect is absolutely a worthwhile trait in a breeding partner. It should be sexy to be smart.
- Comment on Recession indicator, what do you call this dish? 3 weeks ago:
Use Hot Dogs instead of Hamburger in Hamburger fucking Helper?
I think it means we are great again?

Ok, but how do you feel about Jolly Ranchers?
- Comment on The right kind of vibe 4 weeks ago:
Weezer also covered it.
In turn, Africa covered Hash Pipe.
- Comment on We live in a society... 4 weeks ago:
There are a couple of American Express cards that give you 3% cash back on Gas (including one with a low annual fee, that also gives 6% back on groceries up to the first $6000 spent per year).
That helps.
There’s a gas station chain near me that doesn’t play ads, usually has the best prices, and gives 10c off per gallon if you use their app linked to a checking account…that helps, too.
I miss the days when that was the better deal…
- Comment on We live in a society... 4 weeks ago:
I don’t know if it’s a national app or what but we have ads around here for a gambling app named “JackPocket” and I can’t help but wonder how much the board was giggling about that name when they agreed on it.
- Comment on Bisexuality released in 1995 and the devs still haven't dropped an update 4 weeks ago:
So much easier to just use PyLGBTQ if you don’t need the performance.
GoLGBT looks interesting, but it lacks queer support.
