Maybe it has something to do with also needing international support in order to defend itself from its neighbor… talk all the shit you want about the US’s stance on Israel, but shifting that to Taiwan is on par with claiming Ukraine deserved to get invaded.
Which I now realize is probably your next line. Anyway, oh well
You’re not an asshole for going faster, you’re an asshole for tailgating
How do you think DOGE and RFK Jr’s research priories will impact that?
At a guess, they’ll stop tracking the data?
Same with people who blast music in public. There’s a bike/pedestrian trail near me I use a lot and people are constantly riding or running while blasting the worst music imaginable to everyone nearby. Maybe someday I’ll build up the courage to tell them to shut the fuck up… or at least teach them what headphones are. Maybe I could buy a bunch of cheap ones and just chuck them at the heads of anyone who apparently needs them.
They also care about ruining trans people’s lives in any way possible. I’m sure there are plenty of transphobes who simply haven’t thought the bathroom thing through, but don’t forget the other reason they’d be happy to put passing trans men in women’s bathrooms: it forces them into an impossible decision. When an angry mob drags a trans man out of the women’s toilet, you think they’re going to listen to protestations of being AFAB? If anything, that’d just rile them up further. So a when someone is faced with the decision of choosing either the room they’re least likely to be noticed in, or the one the law technically assigned to them, they may instead choose to stay home. They may even start considering detransitioning. This is a feature, not a bug.
Go big or go home. “Russia starts using nukes and us government blames ukrainians for it”
I mean the version of him in this pic was strong enough to straight up kill Spidey. It just varies from story to story
I don’t understand how someone can look at things and go "yeah no need to look any deeper, I know enough already
I swear some people never grow out of the “I’m a big kid now!” mindset. Just like how little kids always seem to think <age they currently are> is the age where now they suddenly deserve respect, lots of adults go “well now I’m an adult, so that means I know everything. It’d be embarrassing if I didn’t!”
Pride is a hell of a drug.
Literally none. DEI straight up means treating everyone the same. They’re working on giving it some fucked up negative connotations the same way they have with “woke” and “critical race theory,” but if you look at the history and reality of where those words come from and what they mean, it becomes clear they’re playing with language, trying to avoid looking racist to the general public while still implementing racist policy.
If by “this,” you mean the reference towards Tubman, then you’re wrong. Talking about the accomplishments of anyone who isn’t a straight white Christian man IS promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion! DEI is a good thing! Opposing it is explicitly racist!
I did not but I’ll give you an upvote anyway
Not sure which of the cabinet said it first, but for anyone wondering–this isn’t satire. The “which 24 hours” is a real line Trump supporters are regurgitating.
The key to having fun with the gonarch fight (and other huge chunks of Xen too, like the Gargantua chase and Nihilanth) is to discover that the jump pack is broken and if you hold your crouch key, it tricks the game into thinking you never touched the ground. So you never lose momentum and can infinitely slide around at a thousand miles an hour, boosting your speed every time the jump pack recharges a bar. If you’ve never learned Source airstafing, the wide open first stage of the gonarch fight is a great place to start.
I do agree the gonarch was changed to be a ridiculous sponge though. Its regular health bar is set a bit too high anyway, but on top of that it’s actually invulnerable through the whole sequence between the first and last stages of the fight. Which would be fine, except they didn’t do anything to communicate that to the player! It still bleeds, it still makes pain noises, and the only way to figure it out is to waste a bunch of time dumping ammo into it. Very silly oversight.
I’ve always known the average voter is a huge idiot with a tiny attention span, but articles like this really put into perspective how bad it is. How the fuck do you manage to forget the COVID pandemic? Did everyone really buy the “Chinese bioweapon” propaganda in order to avoid blaming Trump or something?
Trump was awful before and already ballooned the debt once. How do you not expect it to happen again?
I heard those kittens were eating people’s pets.
I think it’s way simpler than that. Has to be, these people are dumb.
A lot of people worship money, and, well… car made by richest man. That mean car good! Buy car!
I think you meant to say he isn’t not unwrong
Ain’t no way that’s a real person, who tf could possibly type that out and click post without a moment of introspection

He won’t even need to bother, we’re gonna contaminate everything thoroughly enough to last at least the next 10,000 years
