It’s desensitization. We’re seeing so much AI content these days our brains are becoming trained to ignore things like this like they are normal.

It is. Foreground cat’s shadow has hair, back left cat’s right paw is melting into the roll holder.

Don’t you just hate it when people mistakenly say true things?

Lucky. We got awful fried fish and runny coleslaw.

You’re right, it was 2015, but as a simple layman I was aware of Russian meddling by the time this dinner happened. So if Jill and the Green party weren’t aware of how bad this would look, and how worthless an olive branch to Putin would be, then at the very least they’re too incompetent to be worth a vote. Unfortunately I did not know about this gaffe by the time of the election and even voted for Stein in that election, which I still regret.

To draw votes away from the Democratic party nominee at the behest of her Russian donors. NBC News Link about the infamous dinner.

This points out one of the evilest parts of the Republican party and that is the fact that their political opinions have nothing to do with their actual beliefs and are only a way for them to hurt other people. At the end of the day they don’t care if someone changes their name or what bathroom they use, but talking about these things in relation to transgender issues is a way for them to cause pain to others which is the only point to anything for Republicans.

People that say things like “I’m not a conservative but I’m voting for Trump/Bush/Romney” are really saying they’re only voting for the fascist parts and don’t really care about the fiscal policy as long as they get to cause undeserved pain to someone. And remember, if it’s not undeserved pain then they’re not into it. It’s must be undeserved or at the very last disproportionately cruel.

Great campaign image for them: “Do you want want to vote for fat Homelander or hot fey lady? The choice is obvious”

I made my wife look at it, then I had to go back because she noticed even more insanity. It just kept getting worse every time we went through the pictures.

This is the first time I’ve seen a “it just keeps getting worse” post and actually agreed. I went in n just expecting terrible siding, then the inside of the house, then the chairs, then the lights, then more chairs, the carpet, the exposed wiring, why are there chairs there?, it just kept escalating. Thank you for this.

I didn’t even learn about the Haymarket bombing until I was thirty. It’s like Armistice day became memorial day and no one is ever told that it was originally a day to reflect on the horrors of war and now it’s all just olive drab hero worship. We are intentionally under educated in the US

Apparently this flag has been used recently by Drumpf’s supporters, specifically those that think the election was stolen, and it was seen flying outside Alito’s summer home.

Because the idea that there are vegans and vegetarians is an implied accusation of guilt to people that eat meat and animal products that are the direct result of animal suffering. Some people that don’t eat animal products might be militant or preachy, but I’ve never met one. In fact I have only ever met the inverse, people that constantly berate people for being vegan or vegetarian. Having been one myself, I can say that for me and people I know it is the same reason religious people hate atheists; their existence implies that people that eat meat are wrong and therefore bad people. Studies have confirmed this. Here is an article from the BBC that goes over some of the studies.

Learn backwards. Love upside down. Live vertically. Laugh

What did they do to deserve that?

Stop. Please. We can only get so erect.

Private businesses engage in extremely risky enterprises everyday, it’s why things like explicit liability exist. The issue with something like this is their cost benefit analysis tells them that succeeding would create diminishing rates of return. Solving fusion reaction for the purposes of generating electricity eliminates a form of scarcity. Scarcity or manufactured scarcity is the only thing that enables corporations to continually increase profits.

Even in religious circles the forgiveness part is normally left out. The phrase often repeated is “Jesus died for your sins” without any mention of forgiveness. Since that is the common turn of phrase then this depicts children suffering/dying because of the sins of someone else.
