  1. "Hey 911, Please come and help! Armed invaders just broke into my house!" https://www.wesh.com/article/man-called-florida-deputies-for-help-opened-door-was-shot/66029342
  2. Now, now Brisket. We both know that he's simply being consistent. When it comes to blue states doing things they don't like, they maintain the same "hey, who are we to question it. That's the law. Take it up with the courts," approach.
  3. The classic "it's your fault that I had to vote for a child rapist!" Been seeing this a lot now.
  4. How about the Nearly-Naked Finance Minister? Similar to a Bananas Foster but they leave part of the peel on.
  5. we got a new fridge 6 months ago and I'm STILL finding bits of plastic that I missed.
  6. Its not just a CA thing. My daughter got into them at the beginning of summer and we were talking to my SIL in Dallas and asked if Labubu had hit Dallas yet. She said she'd never heard of them. This week she texted us that both her girls were asking for them now. Thankfully, I don't know any adults who are into them.
  7. listen to this bitch "our president proclaimed that there are only two genders so this is illegal." h/t @Michael Knight
  8. I started going back to the gym a few months ago for the first time in a decade plus. I'll usually grab a treadmill towards the back and with it I can see all of the TVs on each individual treadmill or bike in front of me. No joke, 90% of people older than 60 are watching Fox News. I don't see a single person under 40 watching ANY news from any source. And this is in a blue area.

  10. sorry to cherry pick, but I can't let this go. Cancel Culture was a right-wing thing LONG before it became a left wing thing. What was anti-gay legislation and criminalizing same sex relationships? What was McCarthyism? What was the reaction to the labor movement and the suffragette movement in the early 20th century? What was the reaction to the Dixie Chicks 25 years ago? The right-side, throughout history, has used pressure, social stigmatization, legislation, and even imprisonment to "cancel" anyone who questioned the prevailing societal norms of the time.
  11. a thread about *literally anything* and Johnny posts about his ranch, his family ranches, his money, his connections. quelle surprise
  12. I noticed this too when scrolling through their database. They also treat equally a single student complaint that led to no action with a student complaint that led to a professor's dismissal. That's like saying a random tweet is as harmful as legislation passed and enforced.
  13. I edited my post, so I'll submit, but I'll only add that I guarantee you that these legal orgs have young lawyers and recent grads foaming at the mouth to do this stuff. Just take a look at The Federalist Society in law schools. The difference from even ten years ago is pretty jarring
  14. Are we not permitted to respond to individual posts and address the specific claims made within? actually, upon re-reading the comment, I think this is a valid criticism. mea culpa
  15. Sure. But the same folks behind this incident are also actively working to get cases in front of SCOTUS to overturn Obergfell. Also, go read the dissent in Lawrence v Texas and try to argue that that's not the current majority opinion of the court should a case be brought. It's going backwards.
  16. How is that post political?
  17. Also a St John's graduate. But I'm sure admission into both had nothing to do with race during the heyday of affirmative action.
  18. Hard to see how this doesn't trickle down to essentially overturn Terry and allow detentions of all persons based on a hunch.
  19. Haha Fuck off Florida
  20. First bet I've placed on a sporting event in like 3 years. Go blue. Edit: that sounds like I'm a gambling addict. I'm not a gambling addict
