A pumpkin. There’s no innuendo.

Not to defend Dementia Donnie here…but as a New Yorker, he probably knows them as bodegas?

I live in Michigan where we’ll call them party stores and corner stores, and I still know what a bodega is. No point in defending him, he’s really just an idiot.

putting his money where his neck is.

Aww, “putting his neck on the line” was right there

Yeah, it makes a lot more sense when you consider that the far side has to be lit during an eclipse.

The “Praise Allah” one was absolutely real and many news orgs have written about it at this point. It’s pretty depressing…

Are you kidding me? Shot day is when I crave chocolate the most, I’m not giving that chocolate away.

The problem is that you have people who’re snowbirds from Florida who bring the plague with them to places like Michigan and other northern states.

And you used to be a child, does that mean you still have to play in peewee football? Bodies change after being exposed to hormones, that’s literally what puberty is. Some changes are permanent, but the vast majority aren’t, and I can tell you that the trans dudes I know look nothing like women anymore after a couple years on HRT, and the same goes for the trans women I know.

Would I have been comfortable competing in any competitive women’s leagues in the first 3 months of HRT? Absolutely not, and I fully recognize that would have been bullshit and akin to a cis woman on PEDs. Literally every women’s team org that I’ve been on has not had a single issue with me joining the team or competing against them; it’s literally always men who never gave a fuck about women’s softball or roller derby until trans people became an easy punching bag.

I 100% understand the concern that people have, but I’d much rather us take a scientific approach to things rather than this stupid fear mongering of acting like a male powerlifter is throwing on a wig and destroying all the women’s categories. There are proper ways to handle this rather than blanket bans, and it’s just another way to distract people by scapegoating a minority and infantalizing women at the same time.

My friends tell me that I should write stories about the stuff I find but I’m really bad at that, it would be fun though.

Just wait until someone tosses a set of baby shoes, then you’re off to a great start!

Malort is so much worse than just bitter though. It’s like a mix of cheap artificial mint and burnt rubber. It’s probably one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever tasted, and that includes pure Bitrex.

Put on the dress, Shinji

Maybe they’ll be wearing those stupid ill-fitting shoes that he’s been ordering for everyone in the admin

There’s a part of me that wants to believe that Trump is basically a double agent meant to be so blatantly corrupt and awful, taking advantage of every system in the US, that it finally wakes the US up and to realize how fucking awful everything actually is, almost like penetration testing.

This is how you learn you’re colorblind.

I think anti-communist education works much better when a.) the majority of people aren’t suffering massively under capitalism and b.) when you don’t have a collapsing “communist” nation across the pond with which to say “We told you so!”. It’s way easier to point to the wonders of capitalism when you see people pulling themselves out of poverty by working their 9-5 factory job and raising 4 kids on a single income, and much harder when that system is now making you finance a $5 burrito, with interest.

Yeah, generally it just needs an update

Also when oil prices fell off a cliff

As much as it’s not apparent in the way the majority of Christians act, if they actually followed any of the actual biblical tenets, they’d be pretty far left. While it’s framed through a biblical lens, Talarico supports trans/immigrant/minority rights (love thy neighbor, etc.), explicitly anti-wealth (camel passing through the eye of a needle), and is overall insanely progressive coming from a place like Texas.

Fortunately for you, while there’s definitely some genetic component to it, it’s definitely not the only factor by any means. I’ve known some very intelligent people who believe some very dumb shit.
