  • One of the reasons the GOP is so invested in bigotry, is because it's useful to their goals. They need a boogeyman. Not only does it act as a distraction as they steal from their base, it also acts as a justification for why they need so much power: to protect you from the boogeyman. They choose minorities because those groups have less power to fight back.

  • The Jolly Roger of the Straw Hat Pirates, a fictional group from One Piece, symbolizes freedom, friendship, and resistance to oppression in the anime.

    There it is

  • Ohio has actually been voting much better than you would think. The problem is that the state is so thoroughly gerrymandered that it doesn't matter.

  • It should be. after all: We Americans only use the shittiest of infrastructure. USA USA 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

  • Clearly type K. It's such a happy lil guy

  • Good news, you already are! Just delete your social media accounts.

  • Doesn't work for online stuff. This is probably referencing how steam was recently forced to can a bunch of its porn games to appease payment processors.

  • The US's obesity problem is more complicated than that. It's not just that our portions are big. Americans have to work pretty long hours too. That means much of our lives we probably aren't getting much exercise, and when we get home a lot of us don't have a lot of energy to cook so we probably eat a lot more pre-packaged food. Stress also contributes a lot to weight gain.

    And once you have gained a lot of weight, all of those problems, plus the fact that healthcare is so expensive, make it even more difficult to lose.

  • You should see some of the "American food" they sell in some parts of Europe and Asia. I feel like it's pretty typical everywhere to misunderstand and exoticize other cultures.

  • Nah, I'm pretty sure it was r/comedynecromancy. They took unfunny comics/memes and made them funny. They were an offshoot of r/comedycemetary, they just reposted unfunny comics/memes to poke fun at.

  • Singular they. I've had this opinion since long before I even knew about non-binary people. Using "he or she" to refer to a person without specifying gender is clunky as hell.

  • Actually, that's apocryphal. It isn't the salt water that kills you, it's actually Posiden.

  • "the drugs I do are fine, but any of the drugs I don't do are evil"

  • I can absolutely blame people for uncritically accepting whatever the fuck advertisers tell them to believe.

  • Depends on how much malanin is in your skin.

  • I don't think suicide really needs a cutsie nickname

  • Honestly, bringing a whole new kid into the world when there are so many out there in the system without parents is pretty selfish too.

    I mean I get it. I too, desperately want to be a mother. But if I ever get to a point where I could actually support a child (doubtful), I'll definitely adopt.

  • I mean. They built it in the middle of a swamp. I wouldn't be surprised if the next time that area gets a particularly heavy rain it'll morph into an extermination camp in a matter of hours.

  • That won't be a very hard choice for them, lol.
