So she’s actually as repugnant as he is, and her views are just as bad. I can’t remember her name and I can’t be bothered to look it up because fuck her, but she’s a minor influencer in the Conservative sphere. She goes on the streets and does those stupid shock value “interviews” with strangers.

For anyone curious, this is from a series that a Lefty political commentator, Luke Beasley, did, where he and her sat together and tried to have measured discussions about their views. It was interesting, but it only went on for about 6 episodes, and it was rocky the entire way.

Its all up on YouTube. And I watched. And despite her showing the smallest glimmer of understanding occasionally, she ultimately could not be convinced to change her views. It didnt help that her vile ass husband was behind the camera the entire time.

Lastly, her husband didnt overtly say the above quote verbatim, but it was definitely heavily implied. This wasn’t putting words in his mouth, its a legit view he has.

I think it was Mad Max Fury Road

I mean, clearly! You know you’re peak 'Murican culture when you know the best Taco Bell sauce and item menu pairings, lmao

Oh nooooo! I fucking LOVE Diablo on the Crunchwrap Supreme! The mixture with the melty cheese and sour cream is next level.

That being said, I do prefer Fire for regular crunchy tacos, soft tacos, and Doritos Los Tacos.

Crunchwrap Supreme is GOAT though, so Diablo is my most requested sauce.

I’ll have to read it! We just moved to NorCal and joined our local library, so I’m sure I can find it there! If not, the Libby app!

My husband and I did the drive to Reno over Halloween weekend, and we went over Donner Pass.

Lemme tell you if you’ve never been, that section of the US is breathtakingly beautiful, but I could ALSO see how it is devastatingly, oppressively terrifying. And that was even with clear roads and little mountain towns sprinkled around. I got chills thinking about if there was nothing except chest deep snow, dying fires, and blankets to keep warm.

Ooohhh never played 2, but I do get nostalgic for the OG every now and then! I’ll have to get this ASAP for cozy winter gaming!

Its SO crazy how much went wrong with that pioneer train. Murders and deaths even before they hit Hastings Cutoff.

The Donner Party.

It’s inexplicably like my “Roman Empire” for dudes. I think about that tragedy near weekly.

Idk, after Tuesday, I started to get a little hopeful for the 2026 midterms. If we can keep up the same energy, we can massively slow down this fucking crazy train long enough to course correct or at the very least kick the can down the road (and hopefully use that time to install better minority protections/progressive policies)

But if we fuck up the 2026 mid terms? Oh yeah. Democracy in America is fucking DONE.

Truth. 3 years ago my “New Years Resolution” was to floss every day.

I knew I was going to have to make it obscenely easy to do in order for me to stick with it.

I do a suuuuuper quick run through every morning with a disposable pick BEFORE I brush, and my annual dental visits since have been night and day. I really don’t even have to try very hard and my gums don’t bleed anymore either!

Its about taking better care of your mouth - not perfect care.

The amount of idiocy demonstrated by the adults in that article is fucking mind-boggling.

One family moved to Russia with only $50K to their name, for their family of 5, and didn’t research the public education requirements for their sons ahead of time.

It tracks that people this fucking stupid would have this level of hate for “non-traditional” relationships.

Unfortunately he is still alive. They talk about that misinformation campaign in the article.

Nah. I place 98% of the blame on Republicunts for the state of the country currently.

I place the other 2% on non-voters. You helped us get here.

Speaking for America, we’re deeply sorry about him getting a platform.

Elon Musk famously abuses Ketamine to an insane degree.

Makes me never wanna try the stuff.

I find sex less enjoyable with a condom. Im still able to have a good time NOT getting pregnant.

I, as a pro-birth control/pro-choice lady, believe lady-oriented birth control has nothing to do with that (perhaps naiively).

Pregnancy, even the healthiest, safest ones, are hard on our bodies. That means that anything that prevents them is theoretically better than if we’re constantly/repeatedly pregnant. Even if its harmful for mental health or long term effects on organs. Pregnancy fucks us up outright both mentally and physically. Like day one.

Obviously I’m simplyifying a bit, but you understand the gist of my logic.

Men dont have HAVE to deal with pregnancy, period, so anything that introduces harm, even minutely, is automatically a worse quality-of-life option for them.

Am I pro-male birth control? Hell yeah I am. I just recognize that they’re giving up more than we would be to accept the same risks, given that they dont have to experience pregnancy to begin with, and I dont trust/expect them to do that.

Therefore, it makes logical sense to me that we’re the ones targeted.

Its crazy how different tastes can be. I definitely get more of a smoke flavor for Diablo and a tang from Fire.

Fire sauce goes better on a standard crunchy taco, but Diablo is king mixing with the melty cheese and sour cream of a Crunchwrap!

Every time I eat a Crunchwrap Supreme, I’m going to think of my long distance Bestie, LemmyThinkAboutThat!

Ugh, I wish they’d sell the Diablo sauce in bigger bottles like they do their Hot Sauce!

Crunchwrap Supremes are GOAT. Dripping in Diablo Sauce! Perfection!

I’ve never been to SF, but we just moved to NorCal earlier this year and I’m SO stoked to visit. I absolutely believe that there’s a homeless issue there because I’ve been to major metropolitan areas before: Houston, Baltimore, Vegas, Paris, Tokyo, etc etc etc but I simply do NOT buy into the hype of there just being endless amounts of human shit and discarded needles in the streets.

In my head, I have it built up as this glamorous place with good food and pretty bay views with the huge hills and colorful houses and streetcars.

Honestly I think I want to spend my birthday there in March, and I’m pretty excited. Any and all bar/museum/restaurant/atlas obscura oddity recc’s welcome from locals/people who have been are welcome!
