“Long COVID won’t cost us billions if we don’t have to treat them.”

Hey buddy, while I share your sentiment, only we’re allowed to shit on our own country. You can go fuck yourself.

So what? He was impeached last term as well and nothing happened. He still kept on presidenting, doing whatever he wanted, and it didn’t stop him from getting elected again. So what’s the point?

No, that’s not OK. It’s not ok for a law enforcer to kill anyone for any reason other than in the immediate defense of themselves or other civilians.

That’s not their job. They are not political assassins. They are law enforcement. They enforce the law. The law is not “kill any traitors on sight” we already know how untrustworthy police officers are, they’ve proven time and time again that they abuse their power as much as possible. It would be incredibly foolish to give them a blanket pass on killing people because the officer determined they were a Nazi.

I think it’s important to point out that this is not justifiable because he was a jan 6 rioter, but because he was reaching for a gun.

It’s a small distinction, but an important one, as justifications can easily stretch to encompass things they shouldn’t. If it’s ok for an officer to kill someone at a traffic stop solely because they were at the riot, then it won’t be long before it’s justification for killing someone at a protest, or just for speaking out.

So good riddance to bad rubbish in this case, but be wary of dismissing a police officer killing someone just because we don’t like them.

Maybe they can try crystals, or magnets.

Ooo! OOO! Photograph their aura!

As long as they got their Luigi board from a witch, or a vegan.

It should be pretty common knowledge that lie detector tests are completely bogus and can’t be trusted. They’re not admissible in court cases. Polygraph tests are proven to be made up pseudoscience.

They might as well try using crystal pendulum tests to dowse out the national security threats.

I think a lot of it comes from thought correlation traps that people easily fall into. The path goes as such

Guys, going into girls bathrooms are creepy sex perverts. -> Guys pretending to be girls going into girls bathrooms are even creepier sex perverts. -> Pedophiles are the creepiest of sex perverts -> Trans people are creepy pedophiles

It’s all baseless assumption and bias, and full of logical fallacy’s but an incredibly easy train of thought that follows normalized cultural perceptions for decades. That’s why people get stuck on those issues, when it really shouldn’t be a big deal at all.

That’s because it omits what all of the things lost get replaced with. The time spent with your kid is incredible. Yes your YouTube playlist gets taken over by baby shark, but also you get to see them go from a lump that can barely move, to being able to do situps, then walk, then run up to you and start clapping their hands making the baby shark motions, and start cackling with the most genuine laughter you will ever hear in you life as you get up off the couch and pretend to scream “oh no the baby shark is gonna get me” as they chase you around the house.

It’s good times.

It’s also bad times. Like when you have to tell them no, or stop, or bed time, and they scream the scream of pure despair, as nothing in life could possibly be as painful, as terrible, as inhumanly awful as being told you’re not allowed to roll around in the broken glass that you just shattered on the ground by wildly throwing your teddy bear across the room.

Your life becomes singularly focused, You lose almost all of the things you were before, but your life is always interesting and meaningful. Except to other people. Other people think your hobbyless, in bed at 8 life, is boring.

I have twins.

Can confirm. totally accurate

Oh that’s easy. When you have kids, you stop having time for those hobbies. So you don’t have to worry about spending money on them anymore.

When Clinton was president, we were a sex joke. When Bush jr. was president, we were a funny joke. When Obama was president, we were a meme. When Trump was president, we were a sad joke. When Biden was president we were a dad joke. With trump president again, we’re now a sick joke.

Wait I get an office? Fuck man I don’t mind sharing with any one of these people. It beats the hell outta being in a cubicle row surrounded by all of them, which has been my experience so far.

For the emperor…?!

“wanna see something cool?!” No.

Then you’re going to hell for lying.

He eats too many Sea Weedies.

And yet they show us ads even if we do pay.
