That’s just farming, only on a reeeeeeaaaaly small scale.

Which drives the partisanisation of the media. Bozo is right about one thing: the trust in media is at an all time low in the US and trust is build through accurate and unbiased reporting. Endorsing politicians is biased as hell.

The newspapers repudiation of a fascist in dangerous times would hit that much harder had they not endorsed other politicians in less dangerous times.

So now it’s damned if they do, damned if they don’t… swallow that pill they must at some point. But it would have been an easier pill to swallow after the rule of fascism in the US had been averted.

🤣

Uhh, do Disney!

or that we should stop eating cats and dogs. Of course we’ll keep doing those things.

Wait, what?

Embrace the Rot by Endless Taverns.

I play a high level D&D spore druid who worships the rot as the culmination of the circle of life and death. He’s also, due to our campaign turning us into the heirs of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse, currently wearing the mantle of the second horseman “Pestilence”.

It’s just… the song is perfect, it’s his theme song now.

My most hated meme people use right now is: “We’ve had the worst storms/rains/drought/fires of the century every year, that’s just how it is.”

Bitch if it’s the worst of the century every year that means it’s getting worse every year! There’s no status quo in this!

B b b…

I don’t understand what’s happening here, can someone explain please?

Best answer

Germany abstaining is actually a big deal.

The defense of Israel is one of our “Reason of State” and not voting in favour of Israel is a serious signal that politicians are fed up with Netanyahus bullshit.

It wasn’t that long ago when Republicans complained about participation trophies and how, at sporting events in schools, the ones who did not win still were acknowledged for their effort. They were complaining that it would make children weak, not want to compete, not give their best effort if they got recognition without being the top dog.

Now they demand their participation trophy and it better come with tendies!

There is anti-americanism (which I’ll gladly join in on) and then there’s making asshole memes.

Woah there, somebody want’s to piss off the entire australian continent.

Just reading this makes me SO ANGRY RIGHT NOW!!!

The reasons just don’t necessarily come with any moral take away attached.

Children get bone cancer for purely physical reasons, yes, but there is no plan behind it, nothing that makes the situation better in any way and this is how the phrase is usually being used. It’s people saying: “Don’t be sad, something good will come of it.” to the faces of grieving parents or deathly ill people who have nothing to look forward to but pain.

Religious/spiritual proselytising has completely alienated the phrase from the methodological naturalism it could express.

The basic law of Cologne:

§1: Et es wie et es. („It is how it is.“) Look the facts in the eye, you can’t change them.

$2: Et kütt wie et kütt. („It’ll come as it comes.“) Accept the inevitable, you can’t change fate.

§3: Et hätt noch emmer joot jejange. („Everything turned out fine in the past.“) What turned out okay yesterday, will still work tomorrow. Situationally: We know it’s shit, but it’s the best we can do with what we have.

§4: Wat fott es, es fott. („What’s gone is gone.“) Don’t cling to the past.

§5: Et bliev nix wie et wor. („Nothing ever stays the same.“) Be open to new developments.

“Boys will be boys” Oh yes, what deep insight, nicely expresses the lack of parenting that let little Billy here become a FUCKING BULLY that regularly kicks, punches and intimidates other children. Even worse when adults agree that “shitty and violent” is just how boys are, you know boys will be boys.

Well done being a role model guys, not only does that excuse the bully, it openly communicates to the victim that 1) he’s allowed to be like that, 2) they should be bullies too and 3) nobody has any intention of actually helping them and changing the situation.

And then you make them shake hands afterwards and both have to apologize, the bully and his victim.

GRRRRRRRRR makes me so angry! Complete abdication of your responsibility to actually parent your little monster.
