And they also decided “do no work on the Sabbath” also meant “don’t push the buttons on the microwave.”

Or that if you circle your city with a wire, that counts as your city limits for purposes of traveling on the Sabbath.

Point is, rabbinical law has always been about finding the loopholes because they consider it a mark of godliness.

Cheeseburgers for sure.

Aziraphale and Crowley looking at Jesus during the crucifixion.

Crowley: What was it he said that got everyone so upset?

Aziraphale: “Be kind to each other.”

Crowley: Oh, yeah. That’ll do it.

Here’s the problem.

Strip Trump and MAGA from the GOP, and what are you left with?

The same shit-ass party that brought us Trump, only less emboldened.

They still want tax cuts for billionaires, no universal health care, no workers rights, no mention about climate change, no rights for LGBTQ people, no women’s rights, no non-white people in America.

Etc.

The only difference between “the party of Reagan” and MAGA is that under Reagan the GOP was much quieter about being assholes.

You know how the US and the USSR were allied against Germany, but the second WWII was over they started pointing their guns at each other? That’s where I feel like we’re at now with “center-right” Republicans like Walsh. Sure, I’ll take the help of anyone who recognizes that Trump is a threat to democracy and the ideals of the US, but the second that’s dealt with there’s gonna be problems.

That was my intended joke. Guess it wasn’t as obvious as I thought it was. 😕

Trump was directly responsible, though.

I believe this now qualifies him to be a Senator from Florida?

Alternatively, can we make them realize their ideas are bad by making only them experience the consequences of them?

Hey, this is kinda like 2009 when the GOP fought for months to delay Al Franken being seated in the Senate to keep the Dems from having the supermajority Americans voted for. And the whole reason they did so was because Mitch knew that Ted Kennedy was dying so they were trying to run out the clock.

Full “self” driving that only uses cameras and nothing else such as radar/lidar.

Nintendo: whistles in Metroid Prime 4.

On his way out, he can take Nutlick with him as well, fucking piece of shit that he is.

Anyone who wants to slave people and their children and their grandchildren to factory work, but doesn’t volunteer himself or his children or his grandchildren, can shut the biggest fuck it’s possible to up.

It’s a chip shop, not a school.

“Learning” implies he doesn’t already know everything there is to know about everything, so of course he hasn’t done it. Or will ever do it.

it chips away at the foundations of historical accuracy.

I disagree. The South was also the United States. To argue otherwise is to agree that their declarations of secession were legally valid and rather than being states in revolt needing pacification, the South was a sovereign nation which the Union engaged in a war of subjugation.

Calling them “the Confederacy” and “the Union” continually reinforces that narrative. Irrespective of what they called themselves then (or still call themselves now) we should reframe 1861-1865 as the United States’ federal government battling state governments in open rebellion.

Given that Boromir died after three arrows, and Faramir lived after two, we can safely conclude that it would have taken at least three arrows to kill him.

Therefore, Faramir is at minimum as tanky as Boromir.

I don’t disagree, but “the complete breakdown of society” is a whole other discussion.

Your lips to God’s ears, my friend!

No, CO doesn’t. That’s why it’s so dangerous.

The human body only has receptors for a build-up of CO2 in our bodies. We can’t tell if we have a lack of oxygen, so any odorless gas in large enough quantities will kill you without you knowing. Hypoxia looks the same no matter what the cause is.

Not one single judge in this country would sign off on this.

States don’t have the obligation to help enforce federal laws, but they also don’t have the right to hinder the feds from enforcing their own laws. That’s what the whole deal with “sanctuary cities” was all about- telling the feds that those cities weren’t going to spend one dime of their budgets to help arrest immigrants, but they couldn’t legally stop ICE from showing up and doing it themselves.
