A 2021 survey by the Public Religion Research Institute found that 23% of Republicans believe that “the government, media and financial worlds in the U.S. are controlled by a group of Satan-worshipping pedophiles.”

I’m torn between thinking “Well, Marx didn’t think of that” and “it’s predictable that during the death throes of hypercapitalism the proletariat may get a bit fuzzy-headed.”

Similar. I’d guess it was something like ctrl-z; ps -e vi; kill -9 procnum on a vt100 terminal.

Nah, they just can’t spell truth.

I’ve always low-key blamed Trump (and his minions) on lead poisoning - paint, exhaust from leaded gasoline, old pipes & so forth. I suppose there’s some portion that’s explained by inbreeding. But, I guess some portion of the phenomenon could also be explained by uncooked pork products…

…because corporations are people? Blegh.

Whenever I try, I get Ravi Bhatia screaming “How can she slap?!”

I read Nikki Haley as Kristi Noem, and frowned at this headline in confusion.

Orions are demonstrably mammals, but unfortunately fictional.

My solution is good $100 custom inserts and Red Wings. Cleared up plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, and a number of leg/back problems. I think the inserts were more important than the Red Wings, but they are a quality boot.

You’re forgetting the pre-Web internet: 99% students & academics. It was largely awesome. When you did get trolled, it was by someone who could spell and form a cohesive argument.

The DA figured it out: if you want to shut Trump up, just show him your Pecker.

This is what happens when you try to put Humpty Dumpty back together again.

I’ve spent a lot of time in RPGs, and the last time I RPed in a G was around the time George Bush’s dad was president.

I’m inclined to believe this, but what I see is laughably bad. I’ve agreed with the premise of Sandy Hook Promise since before the Sandy Hook Massacre, yet they’ve been pounding me with ads for years. Every once in a while, I get a halfhearted “But Trump is pretty cool, isn’t he?” Which will never be clicked. And, when I watched a reaction channel do Buffy the Vampire Slayer, I got a shit-ton of “God hates fagz!” And was pretty glad to see them wasting their money on me.

So, they’re dying of old age, the beetus, and the “China Flu”. They’re giving their money to televangelists, psychics, and short-sellers. And they’re still giving Biden a run for his money. Smh.

Did he make you manually allocate all the space for food in your stomach before you started to eat?

“withdrew all ground troops” … “one brigade remains.”
