@latkedelrey It's just horrifying to imagine being chemically addicted so bad that you literally can't go the length of a fucking meal without satisfying the addiction.

@dhaaruni Man, sometimes I worry that I'm kind of a mediocre staffer, but I would never whine like this about being asked to do my job. Not to a close friend at the bar, and certainly not to press. Like. what the fuck?.

@PanasonicDX4500 Aren't Catholic priests supposed to be celibate? so, like why would it matter if they're gay or straight since they can't act on it anyway?.

@socialistdogmom It's for swing voters. It's to get people who are center right but uncomfortable voting for a Democrat to hold their nose and do it anyway.

@whstancil Progressives fought for a generation to get full employment prioritized over inflation control, and these supposed leftists immediately try to undermine that once we succeed! It's maddening!.

@BearCurd I'm reminded of the woman who went viral on here complaining about the price of bell peppers that she was getting individually delivered from Whole Foods, and who was then viscerally offended when people asked her if she had a Walmart in her town.

@queerBengali It's obvious that Kamala Harris is the better choice for actual Palestinians on the ground in Gaza, but many of the activists believe in Palestine as a cause, seperate from the welfare of actual existing Palestinian people. It's not good! SMH.

@PunishedLink This is why I recommend people who want to get into paradox games start with Stellaris. Since it’s a fictional setting it is free just to be a game and worry about things like “balance” whereas their other games are also trying to be historical simulations.

@ArmandDoma The media somehow accepted Trump's framing on this, but the Mueller report validated everything but the most paranoid Manchurian Candidate theories. If you took half the stuff they proved back to 2016 everyone would have called you a hysterical partisan lib!.

@jbarro It’s pretty simple: very progressive but also very white, and so progressives aren’t anchored by knowing actual black people or other minorities so it’s all thought experiments.
