Can’t even be relied on to feed it’s people.

The biggest fucking joke of an empire in human history.

Having a grimy, fingered little brother is always fun.

Look, he may be grimy, but kink shaming isn’t cool. He can be fingered whenever he feels like it.

$399.99

Lol

Lmao, even

I ain’t buying that shit. I will happily buy two 3d printers, upgrade them, and print a giant coffee table sized version before I spend that much on such a small set.

“well you see, it’s perfectly reasonable that he murdered a surrendered soldier, as he was just following orders!”

The “just following orders” defense still going strong 80 years later.

I’m sure it’s going to be used a lot in the coming decades, assuming the governments actively involved in horrifying human rights abuses ever see any sort of reform…

I hadn’t heard about this before this morning.

Now I want to watch everything that was going to be presented.

You know you’re winning at life and on the right side of history when you threaten people’s families to prevent them from showing an indie movie.

On one hand, I have adhd and depression, and my parents definitely have at least depression. So I’m used to messes everywhere up to and including not seeing the floor for a week or more at a time.

On the other hand, I feel bad when someone gets in my car and I have to move one or two items off the seat.

go fuck a duck

Poor duck…

On one hand, I have a coworker who clearly angrily scraped his trump stickers off the tailgate, and on the other, I have a coworker who straight up held a nazi salute with an audible “heil” when he started talking about his favorite band, Rammstein.

Now I don’t know anything about Rammstein and their political views in general, but I’ve known a few Germans in my time and they all held very strong (negative) views on the nazi regime.

Most coworkers have stopped talking about politics and such in general during breaks though.

You’re still more patient Than I.

It’s great that they’re rational enough to change their views in the face of evidence, even if it takes more evidence than it usual.

bit my tongue to not torpedo our relationship

I’m so glad my wife is basically no contact with her parents, because I never have to play nice with them.

“EU considers following modern Nazi policy”

I guess Google just says “fuck 'em”?

Yes, 100%, absokutely correct.

Google is a company.

Companies do not care about you. You are not a person, you are a number.

SNAKE?!

“Dutch government does X”

“It’s them fuckin Americans again”

And gadsden flag, and trump flag, and thin blue line flag.

They might.

Personally I mean the entire country goes back to pre-1948 borders.

Former Christian here: it is a cult. Full stop. You are throwing your decisions around based on a belief that there’s some magical perfect happy place we all get to go.

Starting from that alone means we have VASTLY different goals. So many Cultists believe no matter what they do they’re still going to paradise so fuck whatever happens here.

The staunch angry denial without a hint of reflection on how religion has undeniably damaged the world is very telling about what OP is willing to accept. I recognized religion has failed the world even when I was still religious.

No, I don’t know there’s nothing after we die, but I DO know there are things HERE AND NOW that need more ACTUAL FUCKING WORK and your prayers are worth the toilet paper I’ll print them on.

And I am so fucking tired of “well they aren’t TRUE Christians because we don’t get taught that” any of the many, many, many, many, TOO FUCKING MANY TIMES when Christians, ÉN MASSE , do shitty things. No TRUE scottsman… My brother in education, you cannot keep saying your religion is peaceful when it rather spectacularly and historically is extremely violent.

This is exactly the dumb shit take from y2k.

I Still hear people go on about how “it was supposed to be this big thing and then nothing happened! Smart people are so dumb!”

Yeah nothing happened because a lot of smart people worked very hard to fix the goddamn problem, you fucking shitwaffle.

Here? “You dum dums got so worked up thinking it would pass and then it didn’t, so the freak out was for nothing!” yeah it didn’t pass because a lot of Europeans got very upset about their governments trying to spy on them harder than ever.

I’m not European, so I can’t say how people talked about it openly on the metro with random strangers, but online? People were vocal and pissed. A PROPER government (lol can we have some of that functioning democracy please) listens to its people. This was them listening to the people.

The people’s reaction was appropriate, and necessary. And shouldn’t be lessened just because “lol you guys got so propaganda’d and it was obviously never gonna happen and I knew cause I’m so smart” is quite the take on things.

No needle in the syringe, apparently.

Still a good way to get bodyslammed into a wall. I’m not waiting to see if there’s a needle or not.

has a left-wing bias

So does reality.

But some people are, perplexingly, still concerned with “being fair”.
