Am I misremembering, or didn’t he get some genome sequencing done at some point in the late 00s/10s and they found out that he had a ton of genes known to make you metabolize drugs and alcohol very quickly?
Shit, I’ll take it. This is one they’re not even wrong to be mad about. Would have been great if this happened sometime between 2016 and 2024 but whatever, momentum is momentum.
Funny pope selection drama, with the caveat I know about this mostly in passing: allegedly Francis was a compromise vote because the guy that a large (but not majority) faction wanted was too controversial a pick. So they voted in Francis because he was already old and only had 1 lung, so how long could he have to live anyway? Turns out longer than the guy said faction wanted to elect.
And I know it’s memes, but if Vance did kill the pope it’s extremely funny he was replaced with the guy from Chicago who is against basically everything Trump is doing.
Hahaha oh boy, let’s do discovery baby!!
Because it’s a club and we’re not in it.
This is why I appreciated The Shield. The show opens with cop on cop murder to cover up corruption and only spirals downward from there.
Even this thread seems to be packed with third party voters trying to defend their support for fascism with the excuse “It’s not my fault I voted third party, I don’t understand American politics”
Could you link them? Because I only see one person even saying they didn’t vote Democrat.
Contrary to what left-wing optimists had hoped, Democratic nonvoters in 2024 appear to have been less progressive than Democrats who voted. For instance, Democratic nonvoters were 14 points less likely to support banning assault rifles, 20 points less likely to support sending aid to Gaza, 17 points less likely to report believing that slavery and discrimination make it hard for Black Americans, 17 points more likely to support building a border wall with Mexico, 20 points more likely to support the expansion of fossil fuel production, and, sadly for economic populists, 16 points less likely to support corporate tax hikes (though this group still favored corporate tax hikes by a three to one margin). Overall, nonvoting Democrats were 18 points less likely to self-identify as “liberal” or “very liberal.”
But my punching bag!!
Only 39 percent of Democratic nonvoters identified as white, while 28 percent identified as Black, and 20 percent as Latino. This means that, compositionally, the more conservative profile of nonvoting Democrats (compared to voting Democrats) cannot be attributed to a whiter electorate.
My, uh, totally not racist punching bag!
Democratic nonvoters were nearly twice as likely (60 percent vs. 32 percent) to have a household income of less than $50,000 per year, they were nearly three times less likely to hold a four-year college degree (47 percent vs. 17 percent), twice as likely to be gig workers (31 percent vs. 15 percent), and only half as likely to be union members (27 percent vs. 14 percent). Further, nonvoting Democrats were more than twice as likely as voting Democrats to report feeling the economy is worse now than a year ago (46 percent vs. 22 percent) or that their incomes had recently decreased. And, perhaps not surprisingly given their economic precarity, Democratic nonvoters were substantially more likely than voters to support increased state welfare spending (61 percent vs. 52 percent).
My not racist, not classist punching bag…!
The worst part of that is that it’s super easy to deal with mosquitos with a dunk that doesn’t hurt anything but mosquito larvae.
Am I meant to stare up at the sky from 8:15 to 8:30 every other night with my mouth agap while I try to wrap my mind around the spacetime bubble we all exist on the surface of?
At scale that sounds better for society than going to church. We need a little more memento mori (memento minima?) in modern life.
You basically need to assume everyone in a car is an axe wielding maniac out to kill you if you’re on a motorcycle. I had a family member crash after a driver didn’t look left before pulling out of a driveway and put them out of commission for a few months, plus some new hardware. Stay safe!
Fake grass isn’t great either, but at least it’s a slower poison than… well, poison.

Honestly you should assume all supplements are toxic and full of heavy metals, because that shit is virtually unregulated.
Sales metrics, I guess. Ikea always asks for it when you check out, and I remember having to ask people when I worked at a retail clothes store untold ages ago.
God dammit, not Frank! He was just a week away from retiring at the banana factory!
I was going to say ‘didn’t they just blow up a neighborhood with fireworks the same way a few years ago?’, but that was the LAPD. Of course they learned nothing from watching someone else fuck up.
This is doubly true for the card payment terminals. The on screen options are all in different places, orders, and with random questions thrown in. What’s your phone number? Do you want to round up to donate a car to starving kittens? What’s your zip code? Debit or credit?
Also, because this system is apparently developed by a maniac: where I live (might be national and not state level, not sure) EBT cards have to be used on some terminals by swiping, not the chip that comes on the card. But to swipe, first you have to use the chip and let that fail. So if you see someone using an EBT card that looks like they have no fucking clue how to use a card, it’s probably that they’re actually using it the only way they can.
Absolutely insane design choice, especially for people who may already be facing delays like separating items into two separate transactions for non-covered items, having to remove items that seem like they should be covered but aren’t, etc.
