the keel was broken

The funny thing is we have safe consumption sites for drug use all over the country. They’re called bars.

And I’m willing to bet that the vast majority of people that are pearl clutching about safe injection sites would cry body murder if the same standard was applied to their socially accepted, well regulated and protected drug use.

Why does his hand look so small when he brings it up to his face?

I show it to my partners so they can pat me on the head and say “good post babe”

Mario is the least interesting Mario character

Windows has more software support due to their near monopoly, but it certainly isn’t a better OS.

Gamers truly are the most oppressed class

One NGO employee told the authors of the report that “there are hundreds of nudify apps” that lack basic built-in safety features to prevent the creation of CSAM,

I love the pearl clutching around lacking safeguards against non-consensual child nudity in specific, as though an app that is designed to generate non-consensual nude images of adults is the gold standard we should be aspiring to and the only problem with this idea is this one teensy little edge case they forgot to consider.

Being ID’d like that must have been Terryfying

I mean, ask yourself how many times you’ve seen Biden and other Dems insist that is very important we have a strong and respectable Republican party in this country?

I think they’re in on the game.

Looks like I found a new book to read

Conspiracy theory in the sense that they are, in fact, conspiring lol

Consent manufacturing machine goes brrrrrr

No doubt, but I’m specifically referring to comment sections of news agency posts. I feel (very anecdotally) that it seemed like the reception was near universally positive in the immediate aftermath of the event and the day after, but checking the comments on newer posts from those same news media accounts today feels like a switch has flipped and the sentiments expressed are now much closer to a 50:50 positive to bootlicker ratio.

I don’t know how accurate my observations are, and I partly posted this to see if others have noticed the same shift or if I am just extrapolating from too small of a sample size.

Oh, I’m sure there is organic versions of these sentiments going around.

It’s more that, anecdotally for me at least, in the immediate aftermath of this event and the day after, the reaction seemed to be near universally positive even on the news agency posts, with only a few bootlicker posts sprinkled in.

Whereas today, the ratio to positive reaction to bootlicker seemed a lot closer to 50:50. I know it’s not exactly a rigorous measure, but if it was entirely organic sentiment I don’t think there would be such a rapid shift (that I may or may not just be imagining)

Yeah, that’s the idea. This hearing was not the murder trial, so evidence pertaining to guilt or innocence is unlikely to have been discussed since it was not relevant to the matter at hand.

Which, as you said, means we have to wait for the trial to know anything conclusively. But the fact that he only disputed the cash does not necessarily mean he is admitting to the rest of it.

It’s me, I’m everyone

You are either very credulous or intentionally engaging in bad faith, and I don’t much care to figure out which
