In hindsight, there may have been signs…

Maybe that’s been the joke for centuries. The rapture happened but nobody made the cut. Seems consistent with the Bible.

I guess if this is more applicable to me after I change “super rough day at work” to “normal, soul draining day at work”, I should probably also change “quitting my job” to “career change”.

Don’t stop, the withdrawal can kill you.

Not where Palestine is concerned.

Kind of an encapsulation of their modern mindset. “Thanks, big guy, for making others suffer instead of me.”

This story became much less interesting after I realized they were worried about tweets about Taylor Swift, not tweets made by Taylor Swift.

Nobody’s ever going to recognize Maduro as the winner of the election, just that he might become president anyway.

The fish and chips shop closed? So sad that it should come to this.

In hindsight, all the weird half lizard people you kill in dark souls were obviously an allegory to our current political landscape. Bravo, Miyazaki!

The counter explodes when they try, so the problem solves itself.

I heard it as

"In days of old,

When knights were bold

And condoms weren’t invented,

They put their socks upon their cocks

And babies were prevented."

The “people are generally decent but the system is not” timeline.

You’re being optimistic. He won’t be remembered at all.

Not only is it not, its not even the only product marketed this way. Off the top of my head I’ve heard of anti woke coffee, beer, phones, foods… I don’t remember what any of them are called because that’s not a good use of brain space.

Here is the interview, the quote is at ~7:20

I can’t find the interview, but a week or so ago, a Democrat senator or congressman admitted that Joe Biden didn’t gain the Democrat nomination in 2020 because he was the best choice to beat Donald Trump. He won the nomination because he was the best choice to beat Bernie Sanders.

There are genuine, good-faith moderate centrist voters, but at the higher levels of government, there aren’t any good-faith, genuine moderate centrist politicians. They work for their wealthy donors, and they know it.

People out there are really trying to insist that swing voters are gonna think “He reminds me of grandpa when we told him he needs to stop driving. He’s got my vote.”

Yes, I know you’d still pick a braindead Biden over any version of Trump. I would too. It’s not about ability as a president, it’s about ability to get elected president. Sick of hearing that like it’s a real argument to keep him in the race.

Was he actually illiterate? That might have went over my head when I watched it as a kid.
