  1. 100% agree that Prop 65 is dumb. By treating things as binary in terms of risk, it leads to silly things like labeling of coffee shops as hot-spots of carcinogens. The scare mongering of "CA strongly considering declaring XXX a carcinogen" is almost (but not quite) as dumb. Much dumber was the implication that labeling the glyosophates within Roundup as carcinogen resulted in the lawsuits awarded.
  2. "Strongly considering"? What does that mean? Given that this was not included within the title of the link you included, you added this for emphasis. What makes you think this is being strongly considered?
  3. Astros fan here, so take with a grain of salt, but why is this a bigger deal than steroids? I think it's shitty, and I'm not thrilled. But how is this worse than steroids? If anythigng, I think it's more on par with corked bats, foreign substance on ball, etc.
  4. This part is bad and you should feel bad. Baylor and Penn State are on a very separate level of awfulness. This is way closer to Auburn and Cam Newton. Still shitty but not raping women and children shitty.
  5. Do you think all messages are literal? Do you think the author of the cartoon believes Trump literally shot someone with a Maple Leaf symbol on the back?
  6. Wait, you think political cartoons are literally meant to be taken literally? This explains so much.
  7. If he repeatedly posts the same lengthy thoughts with +/- 5% words changed between posts you will have a point. Until then you are much closer to Phlegm in terms of inanity.
  8. First, I have two young boys myself. They are both under 10, so I am not super worried yet, but this is certainly on my ind. I understand this concern. That being said, what is your solution? Exactly what online content would you like blocked? I'll even grant you magical legislative powers to enact whatever you want for this thought exercise. What is the filter that can block whatever it is that you find objectionable without blocking a) international content and b) content that adults want to find for (and produced by) other consenting adults?
  9. Unless your entire persona is a giant Scorpio / Futureman schtick then your "wooshing" is an indictment of yourself rather than others. You have a history of posting no content, just conservative tweets. It certainly seems as if you support these views as there is no analysis whatsoever, just presentation. Maybe these are meant to be critical (or maybe, as you indicate, just this one) but at least Scorpio (and to a much much much lesser extent Futureman) are funny.
  10. Yes, you are completely correct. "On Friday, four Republican members of Congress — Reps. Mark Meadows, Jim Banks, Vicky Hartzler, and Brian Babin — penned a letter to Attorney General William Barr over their “concern for the rule of law as well as the welfare of our people.” The representatives asked Barr to “declare the prosecution of obscene pornography a criminal justice priority” worthy of the full power of the federal government." is absolutely the same as getting upset because someone said "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas!".
  11. Huh? Unless a whole bunch of posts were deleted I see no Derkafication at all. You responded directly, another poster responded that they disagreed, and that was pretty much it.
  12. Neg rep for all 4-circle "Venn Diagrams" that aren't really Venn Diagrams. In above image, for example, there is no universe with intersection of Fahrenheit 451 and Brave New World that also excludes both A Handmaid's Tale and Nineteen Eighty-Four. A true 4-dimension Venn Diagram cannot be constructed with circles. <end nerd math rant>
  13. Again, any statistical evidence to back this up? Is 99.99% next? One poor lonely black person in a black church who doesn't vote Democrat? And even if this were completely true and not pulled out of your ass, what does this "Political Engagement" mean? The church I go to is a sanctuary church, takes part in social justice, works with local immigrants, etc. We have even <gasp> offered transportation assistance to homeless, infirm, elderly, etc. for voting (among other needs). There may be a few Republicans in church, but not many (and no, I am not Surly black mafia). Was this political engagement? So, please, tell us how black churches are the most political, how you determined this, and how you define that (other than by being black).
  14. So Johnny, a couple of people have asked already, but any chance you have actual evidence of this, beyond what Fox tells you about Jeremiah Wright? Do Southern Baptist churches "engage in politics"? What about Mormon churches?
  15. So glad Maloney called Sondland out on having to coming in so many times with new versions. That was awesome.
  16. Ah, the modern conservative. Emoluments? Bribery? Sexual assault? Treason? All fake news! But memes? You bet your sweet ass that those are bona fide.
  17. Holy shit, you are so off here for someone who is trying to use physics. Hint one:: do you know why cars have bumpers? If two cars (same mass, same acceleration) hit each other, and one has bumpers, which one will have more damage? Hint two: if you are going to be hit by a car, would you rather be hit by one with bumpers or without? In neither case is wind resistance a factor.
  18. My favorite was making sure she we knew she was coming out of an "authentic Thai restaurant". Maybe it wouldn't have happened if it was all Americanized!
  19. But after California splits he's gonna win up here stupid libtard. Norcal is prime Trump land!
  20. Jesus will you just pit him on ignore and move on with your life instead of incessantly bitching?
