  • How the men in the Epstein files defeated #MeToo | The emails show the “anti-woke” crusaders are afraid of accountability.

  • I'm still convinced that Gamergate was a trial run to see if open misogyny could win widespread support in the west and be used to indoctrinate young men into far-right ideology.

    It worked.

  • Alabama is forcing incarcerated people to work at hundreds of companies, including McDonald’s & Wendy’s. Unionizing is illegal. The state takes 40% of wages.

  • My boss didn’t know how to use my ergonomic mouse

    I use a logitech M575 trackball, people have tried to scoot it like a mouse and yanked their hand away from it as if it burned them.

  • Little bit late on the draw, but I since I was guilty of more or less the same thing, I edited my comment to read differently. Sorry 'bout that.

  • Minute Maid is discontinuing frozen juices after 80 years

    Jump

  • Yup. My Mom got these for years to save money and make sure we got enough vitamin C. I hated orange juice for a long time because whatever brand she bought was awful and had an overly sour, almost fermented tang to it. Went on a road trip with friends to celebrate graduation and my uncle served us fresh squeezed OJ at one of our stops. It was almost life changing.

  • Just, wtf

  • Doing shit like this without consequences is a virtue to his base. Same with hypocrisy. They know this was vile, if they didn't it wouldn't be funny to them. They know when he's being hypocritical. But has the power to do it anyway, and that makes him godlike to MAGA chuds.

  • And the real tell is that the warrior ideal combined with super broad chest and shoulders are meant to denote strength, but the strongest men tend to be thick through the middle and lack the bodybuilder v-taper they give these toys. Not that bodybuilders aren't stronger than most people by far, but when you look at the people who hold records for lifting the most weight they're nothing like those toys. It's just as shallow and dumb as a lot of women's beauty standards.

  • What lyric has stood the test of time for you?

  • Everybody knows that the dice are loaded, Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed, Everybody knows the war is over, Everybody knows the good guys lost, Everybody knows the fight was fixed, The poor stay poor, the rich get rich, That's how it goes, Everybody knows

    Everybody knows that the boat is leaking, Everybody knows the captain lied, Everybody got this broken feeling, Like their father or their dog just died, Everybody talking to their pockets, Everybody wants a box of chocolates, And a long-stem rose, Everybody knows...

  • Same guy probably complains about his near certainty of dying alone as well.

  • Trump Posts Video Depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as Apes

    Jump

  • I think it stole a sense of security from them. It's like they assumed that because MLK day was a bank holiday no one needed to be upset about anything anymore, we could keep electing old white guys until the sun burns out, and no one would ever think they're the bad guys for maintaining the status quo.

  • Right, so now we have a way to rationalize and minimize the human cost of conducting war for profit thanks to that sloppy ass-kissing drunk.

  • At this point, even if they won't admit it, I think most people understand that economic reality is the opposite of whatever Trump says.

  • Trump Posts Video Depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as Apes

    Jump

  • I remember seeing Obama sworn in on the break room TV at work. People still didn't say the quiet part out loud back then, but you could tell they were fucking seething about him getting elected.

    "Look how smug he is." "She's ugly." "Just a disgrace." "I bet they're all happy now."

    The people who would go on to become the MAGA of today, as well as Trump and so many others, will never let Obama's victory go. They'll never forgive him for being black, successful, and worst of all, more popular than they are.

    Even if Obama disappeared from the public consciousness today, or it was discovered that he's committed some horrible crime and he goes to jail, they'd still feel that his getting elected was an unforgivable insult towards them on a personal level.

    That's the kind of mentality we're dealing with.

  • Where the fuck is the outrage in Washington?

    It's been Exhausted/Diluted/Usurped by a neverending onslaught of daily ragebait and all the other atrocities currently happening in the nation and world.

    Is this intentional? I can't prove it but I think to an extent it is. But it's not just about the Epstein files, it's the people who enable Trump and the people who own him keeping him in place because his a useful tool for malfeasance on many, many fronts.

    Should we be more upset about a global cabal of pedos, Gaza, ICE shooting people, Greenland, or what's about to happen in Iran? What's the biggest threat? The economy? The climate? China? Russia? Fascism? Terrorism? Antivaxxer's fetish for contracting preventable diseases? Mass shootings? Robotaxis commiting road rage? AI disinfo and job loss? Housing costs? Groceries...?

    All of this, whether by design or coincidence, is working together to force people to keep their heads down and worry about themselves as much as possible. That's why it's so important to organize, to give material and verbal support to protestors and advocates when you can, and to build a community where you live.

  • Latest Epstein file photos appear to show former Prince Andrew on floor with female

    Jump

  • Girl. On the floor with a GIRL. Or maybe a woman, but given the context...

    Fucking saying female like she's livestock, trying to sanitize this shit and pretend it's impartiality. CNN can kiss my ass.

  • I'll make it. I won't be well off, but I'll make it.

    My kids probably won't unless something changes soon. That fucks with my head a lot. How did we fuck this up so bad?

  • If cannibalism were the norm and human meat was freely available in grocery stores, there would surely be people who prefered to eat only the meat of people of their own ethnicity or only women's meat

  • What's the quote about virgins from that vampire show? Something like: If you're going to eat a sandwich, wouldn't your prefer if no one had fucked it first?

    This seems similar.
