That’s because you guys worship Ra, but are also satanists, but started the Nazis.

The Catholic Chick Tract is my third favorite one after D&D and the one blaming the Nazis on Catholics.

The problem with the conservatorship was that the person in charge of her life also stood to gain from her.

I don’t know enough about the whole ordeal to comment more about whether it was right or wrong, but I feel like a big issue is when there’s no separation from who stands to gain and who is in charge.

What are you trying to say about Santa?

Yep. They only look similar to people trying to win points or defend the guy over rampant hypocrisy.

This is the one I was looking for. Many years ago I worked construction and these big burly dudes who hated gay people at the time and likely hate trans people today all wore them under their clothes in the winter.

I block ads but only because they became super egregious and are a threat vector in some cases. My default state is “oblivious idiot”. It’s not that I’m not susceptible to marketing, it’s that by the time I notice it you’ve already broken the web page I’m on and now I hate you.

Subscription fees plus the double dip into selling bulk licensing of your thin client to companies who make computers.

I grew up in the middle of nowhere in East Texas as well, probably an hour and a half into Texas from Shreveport. I can say this has been true since at least the 80s that I’m aware of. It’s not “lol, can’t train 'em gotta put 'em down!” and more “I guess I could call the sheriff and he’ll come out and maybe accidentally shoot my dog along with this pack of aggressive, possibly diseased animals who may be gone in the half hour it’ll take him to get here or I can make sure my dog and kid are safe.” I guess there was also “I’ll go ahead and risk my life and start the treatment for rabies and try to catch this pack of feral animals and take them to Dallas where I’m sure the second I turn my back they’re going to be put down because they’ve been out here killing and that’s all they know.”

We had wandering strays that never caused a problem. We did have a problem with meth heads dumping failed fighting dogs. The only time it got to be a real gray area was when you weren’t sure whether a dog had a disease that caused balance issues or if one had just tangled with a wild animal and was hurt. But a hurt dog is also a dangerous dog and you’re still running up against waiting half an hour for a sheriff that might show up blasting every animal in sight whether it’s gone or not and possibly having your family hurt.

Life is complicated. And it sucks. And some of us are just out here doing the best we know how. Except Kristi Noem apparently who hated that dog and didn’t care for it or train it properly, blamed the dog for her failure, then decided she also hated a goat, missed the kill shot, and had planned so poorly that she had to go reload and come back for round 2. That’s fucking incompetence and spite, not protecting her kids and her neighbor’s chickens. Luckily she surely won’t bring that kind of incompetence and hatefulness to any job she might do with the government. Surely not, no way.

I was actually talking about Pan Am flight 160 the same day. This would have been a better story. Wow, that’s crazy. Looks like 2 of them made the news.

It was a very small event on November 3, 1973. Interestingly one of the three raptured made big news, but it was covered up. He was a pilot.

Hey! They also destroy communities by forcing them to pay for infrastructure upgrades while the companies get tax holidays in return for a bunch of jobs that only last 2 years during the construction phase and only add about 25-50 permanent jobs to the local economy long term.

Let’s also not forget bringing back mothballed coal plants instead of building new ones.

I had a part time gig DJing at a strip club for a brief time. It gets old much quicker than people think.

Partially correct. They’ll step in because they signed contracts and have moved AI under the umbrella of National Security. Brockman donated $25m back in September. Trump signed Project Genesis in November. So all these hardware companies feel pretty good because it’ll be backed by taxpayers.

I mean we’re (we as in local taxpayers, not me personally in this case) already paying for the infrastructure they use in increased bills. We’re paying for their tax holidays while they’re talking about all the new jobs they’ll bring (lots of short term construction, 25-50 long term employees once the tax holiday runs out, so very little money in the local economy). We (all of us) are paying the price for the mothballed coal plants that are coming back online to support them. We are paying for federal government contracts on them.

It’s corporate welfare all the way down.

“Give me the fantasy villain trust-fund baby look.”

“I got you, fam”

Like all the incredibly salacious but unsubstantiated docs from when he was running for or already president that were included in this dump. Poison the well so none of it gets taken for truth.

There weren’t enough dead bodies in that civil war!
