the entire first paragraph seems like a series of setups for an immense, multi-layered dad joke.

oh the latin Ladins ? from ladville?

neighbors of the badians? near living-alone-go?

they speak something in swiss romansch, it’s froolian but still quite romanschic…

sportsball bullshit if it’s superb owl then how did seahawks (which are actually ospreys!!) win? like jesus owls have some pride in yourself

I think the GOP’s support for trump has always been an endgame. Demographically speaking - their party was dying. This was always one last chance to drive the bus completely off the cliff - destroy education, trust in institutions, the US’s international cooperation from aid to NATO, wreck it all, if they can’t drive the bus forever then no one gets to.

Like we see from the files, it’s a cabal of evil fucks from a huge variety of motivations - racists, sexists, climate denial, oligarchs and techbros all lining up together to fix this whole liberal democracy problem.

There’s an entire conspiracy behind exploiting these idiots.

there’s a certain type of person that feels their ignorance is as valid as someone else’s educated knowledge, so even when we point out to them that they’re being taken, they only hear they’re being called rubes… and double down on whatever grift is draining their pocketbooks.

it’s famously worked nearly flawlessly for religion for all of human history.

Adobe has taken a terrible turn this last decade. Really, I can’t despise them enough - first the cloud services now AI in everything…

I’ve seen some of their research @ SIGGRAPH, and it’s impressive stuff, but never going to draw me back to being a customer. Get fucked lol

That said, personally I do like this comic and it worked for me.

I do wish there was some kind of ~~~~ wavy-line professor x kind of visualization of all the telepaths exchanging info.

one last note: it’d be cool if there was some kind of ‘well if you have to flap your lip meat to ask… then probably not’

mindreading and telepathy are different things; seeing the applicant’s past played out is a different kind of psychic power than being able to say “yo bob what do you think?” in someone else’s brain

Chickenshit Republicans in Congress, yeah. How many times to they have to impeach to get those fuckheads to wake up and smell the treason?

kinda a poster child for all of Poland’s treatment.

which still doesn’t excuse their farmer bullshit re: shutting down the border with ukraine, but holy hell that country has been through the shit

makes me wonder how much the FBI has cost us over the last 20 years… cause it’s certainly billions, tens of billions likely - and what the fuck good did any of it do when treason descended upon our country and a corrupted party allowed this shitburg to come BACK to power?

like, what’s the fuckin point of an NSA, FBI, CIA etc., if this shit sails through.

Oh those agencies are only supposed to stop poor people ‘tyranny’, not like, rich people and foreign actors?

What a complete fucking waste.

at least with the china she’s already getting out the dishes. with the plastic, I have no idea how long it would take to strip the furniture, but it’s not a quick process lol. it was so strange.

buy trump’s affordability message?

in this fucking economy?

You always knew houses with smokers and without. Hit you walking in the door and put a sepia tint on reality - walls, popcorn ceiling, all kinds of shit. But what kids today will never know:

Plastic covered furniture. People covered their couches and easy chairs with plastic. it was wild.

Google it, people had fitted plastic covers made for all their furniture. I don’t know if anyone ever took the covers off “oh the pope is coming over let’s go all out” attitude but it was a distinct thing.

the smell of all those pelts would gag an asteroid maggot.

nah, it’s all ‘recovered’ imperial hardware - fuck they had AT-ATs and AT-STs all over the place, bet some some of the power modules or turbolasers could fetch some credits. and you have a ready, motivated recovery crew with the ewoks.

but get it quick, the remnants of that space station are going to deorbit rapidly and uh, sorry endor-ians, war is hell and all

even if it only helped eek out 1% returns, on missions depending on an RTEG that could be years added.

worth keeping an eye on.

When Houston covered it, Parton put the proceeds she earned to helping black communities. Classy lady.

you gotta use the translator:

“The IRS wrongly allowed a rogue, politically-motivated employee to leak private and confidential information about President Trump, his family, and the Trump Organization to the New York Times, ProPublica and other left-wing news outlets, which was then illegally released to millions of people,” a Trump spokesperson said in a statement.

“The IRS employee exposed factual, damning information about President Trump, his family, and the Trump Organization to the New York Times, ProPublica and other left-wing news outlets, which was then obviously released to millions of people,” a rational person should take from that statement.

And Mexico as Madre?

Claudia Sheinbaum is pretty cute. I’m in.

Good. It shouldn’t have come this far in the first place.
