“Prego” is an interesting Italian word with a lot of meanings; it can mean “please,” or it can mean “of course” or “you’re welcome,” or - in certain rare circumstances - it can mean “fucking hell that’s a terrible idea”
I believe in us. We can do this
Thread: some notes on Ohio’s new nudity bill.
For once, I can say that I agree with Tucker Carlson:
He WILL be tormented for a long time.
Well, let’s be fair to Mr Carlson - he also regrets helping empower Trump to start a bloody war.*
*(specifically because he thinks that said bloody war is a JEWISH war, that JEWS did, and Tucker Carlson hates anything that is TOO JEWY, and honestly Tucker Carlson is fine with bloodshed otherwise)

Pseudodementia is basically: cognitive and memory difficulties arising from depression.
It *looks* like dementia, can occur at young ages, but is not. It's a symptom of depression.
This is 100% correct, and the theead has great info.
In fact:
Any headline which contains the phrase “critics say…” is journalistic malpractice.
Nobody cares what “critics say.” They care whether it’s TRUE. Just reporting the stance from “both sides” is pointless. Journalists should report facts.
Media needs to stop with "critics say" and just quote the actual language of the bill.
HB 249 creates a new category of "seminudity" which can be used to arrest women who aren't nude, but are wearing clothing — leggings, t-shirts without bras — that religious groups feel is too provocative.
A picture of a majestic humpback whale leaping from the seas with the caption “humpback whales are forming super-groups”, rather than simply admire the wonder of nature I am making a poor quality music gag
This is why whale punk had to happen

Lawbreakers, the lot of them.
VERY COOL PERSON: It's four-twenty, you know what that means?

Let’s put every prison out of business.
Was she defending scamming - saying scamming is good and okay - or was she desperately wanting to insist he wasn’t a scammer because she felt ashamed of promoting somebody who turned out to be a scammer?
It felt a lot like the latter to me: she was overly credulous. Maybe I read it wrong, I guess.
That’s not really promoting a campaign, though, is it? It’s just attempting to justify support you’ve given in the past.
I never followed her. But the conspiracy theories about her supposedly making money off of this seem really weird and out of line barring actual evidence.
Correlation doesn’t equal causation is right.
Didn’t Molly Shah completely stop publicly promoting ALL Gaza fundraisers months ago?
Rupar needs to slow down with the clipping, he keeps doing this thing where he puts the wrong text with a video.
What thing are you talking about? Something up for a vote in Virginia I guess?
Can you impeach someone who was never really president because he was ineligible?
I think probably you can. Anyway: those are the grounds they should impeach him on.
If they succeed, BBB was never passed anyway.
it is very, very funny to me that some people believe that humans goon because we’re shameless. gooning is not a shameless activity. shamelessness would just be openly having sex with other people. the whole point of porn is that you can look at it secretly without anyone else knowing!
Muhammad famously shielded an icon of the Virgin Mary from destruction when he had the Kaba’a cleared of polytheistic talismans, ordering that it be kept safe.
Like all religions, Islam is a lot of things to a lot of people - much of it bad. But it isn’t necessarily “all about iconoclasts.”
I actually want MORE intertextuality in movies
“I know it doesn’t make sense to rerelease The Godfather II in theaters right now, but trust me: there’s stuff in the upcoming live-action Moana remake that will NOT make sense if you haven’t seen that scene where Kay tells Michael she got an abortion”

good. he’s a tall man, if he were stepping onto your bingo card it would probably be very hard to get it back
silphium. I just want some silphium. would be really cool if I could find some
I guess I get it, though. there are a lot of us hurt people out there. but putting our pain back into the universe doesn’t actually help at the end of the day
There’s a thing right wing people like this do where they calcify their trauma into a cynicism that gives them a satisfying way to see the world that seems to prevent it from hurting them again, but which, when directed outward, makes real healing impossible.
this makes me pretty angry, gotta say. this is some dumb shit to think and even worse shit to post
sigh… I am not online-ing very well today. probably I should log off and read something
It was - fair cop: I was deflecting. It’s not unreasonable for you to ask a question when I’m making wild claims. Apologies.
I just don't get how anyone can look at what Trump is doing with his presidential foundation fundraising and plans for a "presidential library" and think he invented, from scratch, this grift, this bribery potential, this history-rewriting, self-aggrandizing self-monumentalism.
He's taken it to new
