Can you grab some unflavored store-brand seltzer?

Mostly though, left-wing cranks are my people and I think it's funny when internet stalinists swarm liberals' mentions like kpop fans. liberals complain about "tankies" now, it's incredible

also I have at least one relative who was shipped to siberia because of their ethnicity. Hard to blame that on Actually Existing Socialism, though, since it was WWII and other countries were doing it. America was doing it to Japanese people, Russia to Germans.

i'm a bit of a defender of the Soviet Union, but I think we have to acknowledge and learn from the USSR's failures and misdeeds rather than whitewash them for agitprop

ah, internet stalinists. I may take issue with your historical revisionism, but i have to respect you as posters

Woodstock

I just assume they're crypto-fascists and call it a day

there are few better symbols of The Simpsons' decline than Maggie going from Great Escaping the Ayn Rand School for Tots to being the protagonist of an anthology segment based on The Fountainhead

One of the more surreal trends of the past 10 years has been the consolidation of crankery

9/11 never happened. The Twin Towers are still there. That's why they make you sign an NDA before you visit New York.

Wait, is there an alliance between "panpsychism clickbait peddlers" and "self-declared leftists who resent progressive social values?" When did that happen?

In my mind he is the platonic form of the American bourgeoisie

He demanded his alma mater Cornell give him part of some football field turf they had removed and when they refused he threatened to sue them. Very normal guy.

Thinking about my late great-ex-step-uncle who claimed he dated Farrah Fawcett and that he toured Vietnam with Walter Kronkite so that's how he "knew" Kronkite was lying about the war. The one time I met him he talked about Obama's birth certificate for an hour.

Beedle can never have problems, though. Everything always goes Beedle's way. Whenever he shows up you know he is 25 years away from ruling over Hyrule, a merchant in that world is like a house cat on a small island of flightless birds.

semaglutide seems to activate your dormant eating disorders, which for me is binge eating during insomniac episodes rather than anorexia or orthorexia. I don't think inhaling uncooked tortillas and frozen blueberries en masse at 3am is going to help me become a "healthy" weight.

I have watched this scene countless times in my life and I am only now noticing that the music at the She She Lounge sounds like the Mortal Kombat theme. I need to go lay down.

The fact that liberals revere Obama rather than regard him as an immense disappointment and war criminal makes me fear that we are not going to make it

you know, i'm beginning to see a real issue with some of these things this AI paper points out

Yodas should always be old. I don't want to see any young yodas.

I hardly think "they launched the first strike of a civil war" is a justification for "we, a country on the other side of the world, should decimate their population."

I've built a socioeconomic system that depends on everyone to do useful work and act ethically except the people at the top, who get unimaginable rewards for being antisocial frauds and criminals. And I think it will stand the test of time

It’s inaccurate to say Mario is brave and Luigi is cowardly

Luigi is afraid of death, so he runs away from danger. Mario is afraid of living, so he runs towards death. Both brothers are cowards in their own way

North Korea is as isolationist and militarized as it is as a direct consequence of the Korean War. In a better timeline, it would be more like present-day Vietnam.

1987 was decades after the Korean War ended. How can you claim it was a war for democracy when it was done to prop up a dictator?

You'd think!

I'll read more about the USSR if you read anything about America. Deal?

America bombed North Korea into rubble during the war, killing countless civilians. Both North and South Korea were military dictatorships until 1987. Read a book.

I can't speak to what the USSR was like, but given the countless atrocities against humanity America committed in the name of anti-communism--the Vietnam War, the Korean War, mass slaughter in Indonesia, etc.--it's surreal to see someone claim the US wasn't myopically violent and militant.

I'm sick of this shit. "Madonna is overrated." "Who is Liza Minelli?" "Chappel Roan is a hack."
We need to bring back real fags. Our society is crying out for diva-worshipping queens. We have strayed so far from Judy Garland's light.
