In the context of finding an enemy, the admin literally tried to recreate the premise of the Michael Moore film Canadian Bacon before realizing it just wasn't sticking. I'll bet they took it as a challenge.

I don't recall anyone ever saying... Don't focus on words. Focus on actions. For example, the action of deploying the military on Americans does not make conditions better for us. Quite the contrary. The action of having a mi

Why didn't you wear you wear a mask while a deadly air-borne disease was going around the world? Was it just because your governor told you to? Was it because a governor from another state told you not to? Did you even think about it

ChatGPT told me they are called “barbs”. Then using straight forward google search i could verify that indeed that is the name of the thing i was looking for. Why not just start with a straight forward Google search?

Especially on trash day when dog walkers go out of their way to throw their doggie bags in recycling bins on the sidewalk rather than the trash bin next to them. There's no real punishment for missorting recycling, but I guess it'

Uneven enforcement (like penalties for powdered cocaine vs crack, dress codes, etc.) always come down to classism, racism, etc. It's obvious the prison industrial complex is at play here, whether the appetite is coming from ICE or dome

In my experience, most of the time when kids say they want to make games, that doesn't mean they want to code them. Making a game is usually not a task done by a lone coder. It is a task done by someone who can manage different technic

Even in legal theory, probable cause is not so well defined. In practice, a judge can be found that will agree with cops on whatever they say. The legal system in the US rarely favors the little guy. Even if you have an ironclad case, the e

If you ever do get around to reading the new testament, you'll find that Jesus is obviously more of a collectivist than a capitalist. Jesus "radicalized" me. You can try and delay this realization by arguing over the minuti
