Fuck, now the Parry Gripp song is stuck in my head. My son moved on from this a couple years ago, but the horrors persist

Is it because our solar system is hurdling through space at over 1.5 million miles per hour, so anyone who time travels will find themselves alone in an empty void?

I think you’re taking this too seriously

Dude, the sound is clearly audible, and the people behind him clearly react to it, and they clearly end the event prematurely right after it happens.

Attention on this doesn’t diminish any of the horrible atrocities committed by the Trump Admin, but it cuts at the very foundation of the “strongman” persona Trump tries so desperately to portray

A lot of “investigations” going on. Call me when they successfully bring charges

Uh yes that is the point

The NRA under Doug Hamlin is way better than the NRA under Wayne LaPierre. Hamlin has made a concerted effort to tone down the conservative political rhetoric and bring more women and minorities into the organization. LaPierre was the NRA CEO from '91-'24 (most of my life, and I’m over 40) and was a total Republican asshole.

Letitia James brought down LaPierre, she won his civil fraud trial in 2024 and he was ordered to repay the NRA almost $5 million in misspent funds.

I’m going to guess it has to do with how quickly the temperature change occurs, or other environmental factors prior to the freeze. It seems to be a somewhat rare occurrence, even in places where it gets very cold

Trump deserves a scathing Picard dressing-down before he’s brought to the brig

While there’s plenty to criticize about the founding of the US, eg the northern colonies having to compromise with the southern colonies on slavery, the reality is that expanding voting power to all white land-owning men was a pretty revolutionary concept at the time, where prior to that, power in European culture almost universally derived from birthright. The US Constitution also set us on a course where voting power has continually been expanded and now encompasses all US citizens.

Unfortunately, forces are trying to consolidate power for a small group again, and our system of voting has been continually undermined for about 40 years through the rolling back of voting rights and severe gerrymandering, to where the general public is losing power over our government.

Is this real? I keep having to ask this…

Edit:

I tried really hard to understand what you’re trying to say, but failed

So “nearly half” of California’s income tax revenue comes from the top 1% of earners, and “a few hundred” billionaires would be subject to this one-time tax.

There are approximately 20 million workers in California, so the top 1% of earners is about 200,000 people.

Even with a high end estimate, roughly 195,500 of the top 1% of earners will not be subject to this one-time tax. This bill only targets the top 0.0025% of earners in California. One four-hundredth of the top one percent.

I don’t care what X is doing. Don’t use it and tell everyone you know not to use it

The odds of something actually happening after Elon says it will happen are roughly 10%

Rice is just fancy grass, too. So are oats, barley, and rye. All fancy grass

I’ll bite. Tell me what “norwood” means to you

I think the joke is that it’s gibberish

Braindead take. I’ve heard literally no one say what’s on the right.
