The fact that it works with 4 different orientations speaks to the genius of the design. I mean how long did it take us the get a USB cord that works two ways?

A perfect example here is that most humanities grants require a paragraph on how the grant affects undeserved populations, even when the subject of the grant doesn't directly relate to that community. So this canceled a ton of grants that had fuck all to do with "DEI" just for context less keyword searching.

My grandfather was obsessed with trains and would happily tell you train facts for hours if you let him. My grandmother wouldn't eat off of square plates. My dad started and abandoned dozens of hobbies and businesses. But sure, autism was invented by this generation.

My fear is that it will be a disguised warship to launch an invasion.

I don't use it, I don't think I know anyone who does, and if I tried to sell it, it would go worse than the plot to True Romance.

That's not the question. The question is, did he /think/ it was good for it?

O'Keefe is a liar and a propagandist. Just because he's saying something you want to be true doesn't make it so. I need to see a whole lot of corroboration before I repeat a word he says, and even then, I'm quoting the corroborating sources, not him.

Sure, that is scientifically true. As a colloquialism, though, that is irrelevant. That's how language works. It's why a hot dog can be accurately described as a sandwich, but it someone asks for a sandwich and is brought a hot dog, they're probably not thrilled.

Threatening these shitheads gets you killed. Mocking them makes them go away.

She was never losing the election, but gaining +20% over Harris in that district is nearly unprecedented. It's a good sign, and we take those.

That's completely true in a legal sense, but the details showing how incredibly egregious ICE's actions were is what is gaining attention and anger from normally uninvolved folks.

It's true and it's also why we have to point it out, every time. Calling out the hypocrisy isn't to make them feel bad about it, it's to educate the people on the fence.

One of the two great lessons I learned from that film. The other is that morphine is bad for you.

Trur ir not, it's beside the point. Once you start arguing that, you're conceding the point that if he had a gun at all, they were justified in murdering him.

I mean, the other 5% could be ambivalent. But the point that he's a fucking moron stands.

I'm not a fanfic guy normally, but this sounds delightful! I would pay so much money to see Donut and Mouse interact.

They are acting as agents of the state, at their leaders request. That's a critical distinction from NGOs acting on their own. The fact that they are more poorly trained than your average weekend warrior doesn't change their status.

I didn't learn about it until I looked up the lyrics to a Flobots song.

How about the 80+ civilians that died during the attack? Those just don't count?
