Cruz is like the alien in Men in Black who wears an Edgar suit. I’m pretty sure whatever that is…he’s just wearing a Ted Cruz suit.

And he needs sugar…in water.

I’m not sure why I didn’t realize it before, but you just made me realize that if the Palestinians had the upper hand right now, they would absolutely be wiping out Israel. The world allowed this division to foment for too long; our failure to enforce UN resolutions means both Israel and Palestine have set aside the idea that the global community will ever hold Israel accountable. For Israel, that means acting with impunity, for Palestine that has meant taking matters into their own hands, however hopeless that is, because they gave up on international justice. (and rightly so, it’s a performative joke)

What’s the first thing you do when you try to get two people to stop fighting? You separate them and give them some time and space to calm down, that’s not possible here so the two nations are permanently like two boxers nose to nose.

Oh…was Alexia the Russian leader who, like Hitler, is invading sovereign countries to expand their territory, refuses to tolerate dissent, murders or disappears those who speak out against him, cancels fair elections and then murders his political opponent, and relies on outrageously fake state propaganda and secret police to ensure loyalty?

Because all of that sounds very Vlad, very Vlad indeed.

I’ve been staring at this pic for an hour and I can’t think of any possible rule it would violate besides “no giant rat balls.” Which seems fair but unlikely to exist yet.

I’ve always said it’s ok if you talk to yourself as long as you don’t get into any heated arguments.

But this guy…at some point looked in the mirror and was like, “screw you, I’m calling the cops…you’re a menace”

Pendragon the dragon-born, king of dragons.

Nobody: I wish I could see my poop from all angles.

Hot take: The cops knew the case wouldn’t stand but it worked just fine to get her protest out of the way for the fossil fuel summit to continue.

Maybe just accept it as shorthand for what it really means.

Some examples:

We say Kleenex instead of facial tissue, Band-Aid instead of bandage, I say that Siri butchered my “ducking” text again when I know autocorrect is technically separate.

We also say, “hang up on someone” when there is no such thing anymore

Hell, we say “cloud” when we really mean “someone’s server farm”

Don’t get me started on “software as a service” too …a bullshit fancy name for a subscription website that actually has some utility.

Also, the smartest response to the situation in the picture would be to work together.

But they understood a poster and are thus very smart.

Should be “work intelligently” as well.

Burritos are closed on the ends, my Mexican food-challenged amigo.

I always wondered how bragging about how long you worked was considered by some as a good thing.

Somebody invented “Employee of the Month” and our competitive habits took over.

You’re not there to make sure they take it, you’re there to document whether or not they took it. That much IS definitely your responsibility, to confirm that they did or did not take their meds. You’re not the asshole, you’re just looking at it wrong.

So fucking annoyed at the taskbar overflow shit in Windows now. I don’t want it hiding any of my system tray icons…I want to see what’s running and I don’t care how it looks. Every time certain apps update themselves, I have to go in again and select that particular app to hide itself with no way to tell Windows to just stop trying to hide system tray icons altogether. I’ve told it to hide Discord and the Xbox app probably 20 times each now and it conveniently forgets my decision every app update.

Probably a witch, and we would normally burn them…but burning a witch who is wise in the ways of Thermodynamics is like shooting marsh water at a swamp monster.

I believe that should be 10 to the 4th power at the end there.

takes off nerd glasses

I don’t confidently predict anything for the upcoming election. I couldn’t possibly count the amount of random shit that could happen between now and then.
