I remember when grunge happened in high school, and the punks-made-good dynamic was cool, but remember how the big bands kinda hated their audience? There was a STRONG undercurrent of "we're the cool weirdos, but the vast majority of our generation are Reagan fanboys and are not to be trusted"
Job was a godly man who had to just sit there and take it when the lord let Satan torment him, and I wonder if it would have gone better for him if he had been more assertive and threatened to give God an atomic wedgie or something
I gotta respect the ethos of "if a god punks you, you can punk him right back"
I dunno man, I heard a story from some Nepalis about Indra fooling around with a married woman and the husband cursing him by making his skin covered with vaginas, and he was stuck looking like that for a few years until Shiva finally lifted the curse. Dude clearly had some spare time
OMG you guys the secretary of energy is going to die any minute now
That's one thing I liked about Monkey Man. Plenty of bonkers, non-IT secret identities going on. Like Ghost Dog where half the people in Jersey City or wherever are samurai

OK so Mo Salah and friends will be staying in Spokane for the world cup, and maybe 6 people in town will know who he is. He should be getting excited though because we famously have the only Chili's in the state

Leo's an American, has bipartisan religious credibility while being woke, can do fantastic Latino outreach, could excommunicate JD Vance live onstage at the debate, and while technically he should resign the Popehood if he's president, Trump blew up the conflict of interest rules years ago
President Pope Leo could wrangle the Catholics on the Supreme Court if anyone can

We learned this lesson in Vietnam and then, because we're slow, learned it again in Afghanistan. We fought the Taliban for 20 years and most of the people we were fighting in 2021 were babies/not born on 9/11. They just didn't like what we were doing so they fought us. We were the fuel.
Yeah I bet the industrial solar farms aren't vegan either.
If there's a scenario where we get to net zero in the next few years exclusively via solar co-ops or whatever, great. If not, this is nimby self indulgence
Heard you was down with the AK
and then I see you in a video with Michel'le?
Looking like straight bozos
I saw it coming, that's why I went solo
And kept on stompin
While y'all motherfuckers moved straight outta Compton
Sounds vaguely familiar but I'm sure this worked out great the last time
😢💔🙏my friend, please do not look away, my bunkmate Shawn is tragically currently going through nicotine withdrawal 😵 because he has not gotten a zyn shipment in 2 weeks, and our food has become nothing but tortillas and various browns 🤮
Only you, my friend, can save us from this cruel fate 🫡🇱🇷🥺

I feel using taxpayer-funded teleportation strictly for work is a reasonable expectation and if he wants to teleport elsewhere he should do it on his own dime. But perhaps that's too much to expect in the Trump era 😔
Disagree. He had a story about Waffle House and none of the people at said Waffle House remember seeing him, so where was he teleporting to on the taxpayer's dime? His dealer's house? Some married woman's house? This guy lacks the character for public office.

...has not been the same ever since they hauled him out and drained the gallon of pool water from inside his skull."
Phenomenal
...his brain and accidentally stepped on it and it shot out from under his shoe and smashed into a wall and splattered all over the place and then he fell down a flight of stairs into a swimming pool and was underwater for 12 straight minutes and...
Pretty sure this piece was built entirely around, and written as an excuse to roll out, the following sentence:
"It features quote after quote from public figures all over the political spectrum, including some who know Trump personally, saying things to the effect that the President pooped out...
I can't find it, but a couple years ago when the US ambassador skipped the annual Hiroshima commemoration ceremony for some stupid reason, someone on here said "we don't get to skip that one!" and I feel similarly about this. Germans don't get to blame someone else for Hitler.
Anyway. She wasn’t kidnapped and she wasn’t taken from her daughter. I don’t know if we had anything to do with that, but maybe, so tonight I’m drinking the good whiskey. There’s worse things you could do with your life. /end
So that makes me feel better but also, what the hell are we doing with an office in every decent sized town where people might be disappeared for no reason, and it’s best to bring observers along as imperfect protection against being disappeared?
A friend says it’s good that we went along as observers, and he talks about work he did back in the day accompanying Guatemalan lawyers and journalists who were receiving death threats as they investigated mass graves. Having gringos around was real protection.
We leave that absolutely cursed place and drive her home. She goes inside and I feel the vice finally start to unclench. Just an hour and a half looking out the window in a waiting room, but that was one of the most stressful experiences of my life. I can’t believe there are places like that
