Legitimately curious about the stockings. I get all the other jokes in this thread but that one went over my head.

Lol. Enjoy your goal posts, soccer friend.
If you live in a state in which your vote will not matter anyway, you are better off voting for a candidate who actually wants a ceasefire. Jill Stein will secure more funding for the Green party if she breaches the 5% threshold. This bickering over which corporate oligarch party is less genocidal will get us nowhere.
Jill Stein needs 5% to get the Greens increased federal funding. I live in a state where my blue vote wouldn’t matter. Seems pretty simple to me.
Yeah let me join the downvote crowd. The most powerful military and the largest economy in the world is unable to stop its vassal state from carrying out a genocide for 10 months. But if I vote for this cop and her soldier friend instead of a real estate guy, we’ll magically change our ways and the bombs will stop falling. I have a bridge to sell you.
And the planet as a whole. I think we’re going to have to move past this model if we’re to survive. You can’t just keep feeding Moloch ad infinitum.
My point was that the US thinks it’s important to outlaw certain civilian arms while its military constitutes an existential threat to continued human civilization. I think it’s ironic, but apparently people don’t like that here.
How about we outlaw nukes instead? F-35s? Missile cruisers? Reaper drones? Whatever they have in orbit that can kill us?
Him, along with the entire political class. Thanks, NYT.
Part of the point of reading literature is appreciating how authors write books. “Literacy” includes being able to read and understand diverse styles of writing. This seems more like it’s geared toward passing standardized tests that require reading comprehension.
An AI would give a generic definition of Saturn and a generic definition of tea and then say something irrelevant like “scientists disagree about the exact composition of Saturn’s core”
Saturn is a mixture of gases. It has a solid rocky/hydrogen core surrounded by a layer of liquid hydrogen/helium. You could argue that this intermediate liquid layer might have solid particulates, and this would agree with the definition, but overall Saturn is too complicated to be classified this way. A better extreme example would be something like Earth’s oceans.
I love this. “Israel invades Norway” would be such a great news story to follow.
Yeah see here you go. Response to “meat is bad” is “meat is fucking awesome.”
Evidence for meat is bad: I mean just drive by a factory farm. Look at any of the standard practices of the industry. Objectively horrific by any standard.
Evidence for meat is awesome: bro check out this sick bacon weave. Guy Fieri. Etc. all of it divorced completely from the process, and acknowledging meat only as an industrial product that comes packaged as a block or cylinder.
It’s an absurd argument. Nobody is arguing that meat isn’t delicious. We’re saying that everything about its production is awful.
I love how people try to make this some kind of cultural issue about picking restaurants or providing options. Anybody who spends 5 minutes looking into the industry will realize it goes against basic human decency.
Literally children who want big loud vroom vroom trucks with lots of chrome.
They are usually uneducated and poor with trauma in their backgrounds. They have no idea what they’re signing up for.
He’s the most masculine. Many have said that he is the most masculine, ever. He has some friends that also consider themselves to be the most masculine, but secretly they all agree that he is in fact the most masculine, ever.
