Neither would I.

I kind of hate the ‘Violence is never the answer’ rhetoric. Violence should not be the first course of action, nor is it a desirable one to have to resort to, but sometimes there’s simply not another reasonable way to resolve a problem.

I fully support that shift to AI customer service, on the condition that everything their AI support bot says is considered legally binding.

Tangentially, I hope that that’s the point where the national guard switches sides and starts shooting at ICE.

I feel like this is what it’s really going to come down to. If the military sides with Trump and turns on the citizenry, it’s going to be a massacre. If the military sides with the constitution and turns on the executive branch, they’ll be quickly overthrown.

The whole situation feels like a powder keg. The police / ICE / etc. are just pushing and pushing and eventually someone’s going to get shot, people will fight back, and it’ll turn into a shootout. I’m convinced that’s what Trump wants, so he can use it for justification.

Shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey’s uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There’s pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That… that’s about it.

He’s trying to get the media to echo the term, to get it into public discourse to describe these protests, so that when he tries to invoke the insurrection act, everyone is primed for it already.

Well, this is certainly not something I expected to see today. Not sure how I feel about it. Amazon has a great history of ruining things they touch.

You were a cute kid, at least. Nice big fluffy ears.

That’s no planet. It’s a space station.

There should be penalties for a lot of things that are and have been happening.

No, because the title has absolutely nothing to do with any of the content in the article.

What the title is trying to convey, I believe, is the installation of benches that are designated for people who are interested in conversation with strangers, to help people connect in an environment where typically folks would keep to themselves.

Here’s a different article (from 2021) talking about something similar.

The article is about AR glasses.

Despite pleading guilty to the charges, Keenan maintained that he is not sexually attracted to children, and had only stumbled upon the child pornography in 2017 while “searching for other images such as sunsets and beaches,” according to the decision.

He stumbled upon them in 2017 while searching for other innocuous images and just decided to save them and not delete them for 8 years. Seems like completely normal, well-adjusted behavior.

I could tell you there are certain areas of Los Angeles that you could have called it an insurrection.

He’s just priming the media for when he wants to invoke the insurrection act. He’s got to test out that word and see what the response is. If he can get the media talking about it on his terms, he’s won.

Clearly a bard.

Life goals.

Well, this is better than what immediately came to my mind when I read ‘lumps in Trump’s pants’, at least.

Your kid won’t look both ways before crossing a street? That’s a paddlin’.

They left the most fucked part out of the headline.

And conservatives of various stripes have echoed one of the resolution’s call for pro-natalist policies and its decrying of “willful childlessness which contributes to a declining fertility rate.”

I’m not super up on the details of this situation, but they had to know this would be the outcome, right? This was just bait, to make a point?
