American evangelicals are the craziest bunch of kooks on the planet. As a Canadian I gotta wonder if normal Americans are embarrassed by their evangelicals. I mean it’s all about money and maybe a little Jesus as long as you hate the gays.
It’s nuts.
When you don’t vote you are voting for the guy who wins.
You hate trump but you hate the other guy too. You don’t vote. That’s one more vote not going against the guy who wins.
Say you have 100 people voting. 60 people decide not to vote. Out of the 40 people who vote 25 vote for guy A and 15 vote for guy B. Guy A wins majority even though only 25 people out of 100 voted for him. This means that guy A caters to the 25 people who voted for him and the 60 people who didn’t bother to vote get zero representation even though they’re the majority.
If the 60 people who didn’t vote decided “he’s not great but he’s better than guy A I will vote for guy B” guy B would win with 75 votes, an actual majority.
Sometimes it’s better to vote for the lesser of two evils and push the not great guy to do better than to just resign your fate to the worst guy and let the entire thing just burn.
You don’t even realize you’re evil and that’s the sadist part.
Fuck your mom amerikkkan cunt.
I hope you’re dead.

"We are going to protect women in this state…
Except if they’re pregnant, except if they’re rape victims, except if they’re pregnant rape victims."
Yeah it’s never been about protecting women, women are just chattle to christofascists.
Two of my best friends growing up were Scottish and their parents spoke with super thick Scottish accents. Made understanding Trainspotting and reading Irvine Welsh so much easier.
Some of my fondest memories were in my early 20s, their dad would make me a drink and after a few my Irish/English ass would start talking with a Scottish accent. They’d all get a huge kick out of it. To this day even though I grew up with a dad with a heavy Irish accent I still can’t do a proper accent unless I’ve had a few, then I can’t stop it. 😅
Lilith mated with demons not humans.
Ducks don’t kill people.
Well, they do but only for fun.
Already have had 2 and due for my third. I’m 49 with a looooonnnggg history of bowel issues.
Get those colonoscopies folks, you don’t want to die of embarrassment.
My father and maternal grand father both got colon cancer around the same time, both got treatment and went into remission.
Both went out of remission around the same time (well, dad came out of remission and grampa got leukemia from radiation therapy) they both died 2 months apart.
Lucky me has a risk of colon cancer from both sides. Yay.
The Republicans have been playing by the nazi playbook for a long time now.
Nazis didn’t start with the Jews. They knew they couldn’t get away with rounding up an entire ethnic group. They started with the LGBTQ community. They dehumanized lgbtq people in the eyes of the public and made it seem like they were doing it for the good of a pure and powerful Germany. When that worked they realized how easy it was to dehumanize an entire population in the eyes of the public and used the same tactics against Jews, Roma etc.
When you think about it the lgbtq community is the first line of defence protecting democracy because they are the most vulnerable and easiest to demonize. Once it’s ok to eradicate one group of people it becomes so much easier to do the same to larger groups.
It won’t stop at lgbtq people, they will keep eradicating every minority until they’re actually stopped by force. So far they’ve gone after trans people, gay marriage, women’s reproductive rights and have even talked about overturning Loving vs Virginia. Their goal is a straight, white, “Christian” male utopia.
The last time they mentioned his age it was 38/39. They keep changing it but keeping him and Marge in their 30s.
Honestly I wish they would age everyone up a year every decade. If they had done that we would be seeing the antics of a 13 year old Bart now and I think that could start with some really interesting character development instead of keeping him forever a 10 year old.
If you want your mind blown when Simpsons started Marge and Homer were boomers, then Gen X and now they’re millennials. Bart, Lisa and Maggie started out as Gen X (underachiever and proud of it) then millennials, then gen z, and now they’re Gen alpha.
But grampa is always a ww2 vet.
Fun fact. I was 2 years older than Bart when the Simpsons started on the Tracy Ulman show and now I’m over a decade older than Marge and Homer.
I need a nap.
No worries for me, I’ve had tinnitus for over 40 years, pretty sure it’s neurological for me, not hearing related.
It’s only -11⁰c here in southwestern Ontario and I currently have my window cracked open. I run hot.
So far can’t complain about the winter, it didn’t start to snow until the second week of January so that’s a huge plus. Did catch up with us but considering what winters are usually like here l can’t complain too much.
I had been on reddit since 2008, I was looking for an alternative to the message boards I belonged to after the popularity of Facebook killed them off. I really enjoyed it, not the same level of community that you find in a message board but still good for conversation.
Then trump happened and it turned to shit. It’s so fucking toxic and I ended up getting banned for defending myself. Apparently fascism is good and standing up for yourself goes against community standards.
I’m a disabled 49 year old just looking for conversation. Facebook is also a toxic wasteland now. To say I miss myspace is an understatement but there’s hardly anyone there anymore.
I’m happy whenever I find a place that’s put the social back into social media because antisocial media is just trash.
Sorry guys but this is one of the reasons I fucking hate your country.
