Biden will make the announcement in Texas on Monday

Just twisting that knife in the wound. I love it.

Not to be morbid, but that’s what got Johnson elected the next year, so…

You don’t think proposing SCOTUS reform is going to help Republicans, do you?

TikTok is not even available in China

I think that’s the biggest thing here that defenders of TikTok need to understand. The Chinese think it’s worth the West having but not worth them having it. What should that tell people about their purposes?

Corporations are buying up these houses faster than individuals and are pricing everyone out of the market. Then they offer them as rentals.

Beverly Hills is literally a city. It is autonomous from the Los Angeles city government. It has its own government and its own laws.

And do please show me where the L.A. homes under $400k are. There weren’t L.A. homes that cheap outside of Watts when we lived there over a decade ago and I’m not even sure about Watts.

Oh, okay. Sure. If you want to live in the middle of the SFV and are okay with a 3-hour commute, it’s doable. I don’t think you realize how big L.A. is. It took me well over an hour to get from NoHo, which is in the SFV, to the guy I bought weed from in Canoga Park, which is next to Winnetka. But sure. Go out far enough and the homes get marginally cheaper.

You would think just actually finding some poor Palestinian schlub to commit a terrorist act on Russia’s behalf would have been easy enough. I wouldn’t be shocked if there were some Palestinian refugees in Russia who have since found out that it is not a good place to seek asylum.

There’s nothing cryptic about that at all. He’s telling you what you should be believing for once.

There’s another angle to the dictator thing-

A lot of people essentially think the president already is a dictator. That’s why even people on the left say things like, “why doesn’t Biden raise the minimum wage?!” when that requires an act of congress.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Yes. He wants to be a dictator on day one and then the rest of the days after that too.

Where did you get any indication from what I said that I thought it was okay? I’m talking about why people aren’t more concerned about it like they should be.

A typo regarding the foreign minister’s name in that headline would have made it very funny. I am disappointed at the lack of said typo.

How was this meeting not a violation of the Logan Act?

Yeah, this World War III thing is an old one from him.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I’m pretty sure that WWIII didn’t then follow that event, which is the point. Trump has been consistently saying a nuclear war will happen if you don’t elect him since 2016.

“I’m all for a laugh, but this goes too far,” Farage said on Thursday. A Derbyshire local agreed, saying the game was “not just disrespectful, it’s a dangerous precedent.

If only irony could throw milkshakes…

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

If Farage was gay, people might be more inclined to throw milkshakes at him. People aren’t big fans of traitors.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, but Britain has been burning a guy in effigy once a year for centuries. Imagine if ‘Nigel Farage Day’ took over for ‘Guy Fawkes Day’ and instead of bonfires, you had thrown milkshakes everywhere! Imagine the mess! The smell! Britain can’t handle such things!

@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Yes, attacking an effigy of a white racist and bigot is the equivalent of attacking an effigy of a black person who has shown no indication of being a racist or bigot. There’s no difference there at all.

Do indulge us: Why would the CIA want to “unironically” shoot at Donald Trump?

It was very interesting to me that in the Olympics opening ceremonies yesterday that despite the parade of nations being in (mostly) alphabetical order, they made sure Sudan and South Sudan were not in the same boat, even though plenty of other nations shared boats.

That’s some serious enmity if they have to keep the Olympic athletes separated by water. No wonder it’s a humanitarian disaster.

That’s the beauty of this sort of Christianity. Do something atrocious, apologize, get forgiven, then repeat the cycle.

I’m glad I read such posts all the way through, because I was getting the banhammer ready for this one. Unfortunately, a lot of other people apparently didn’t read to the end.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I thought they added the word “democratic” but the announcer was speaking over it so I wasn’t sure. I did say at the time, "did they just call ‘South Korea’ ‘North Korea?’

But the whole ceremony was such a bizarre fever dream that by the time they got to robohorse, I had totally forgotten that.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Although in this case, even the BBC announcers were pretty awful. I started with the CBC via my VPN and switched to the UK after the white CBC lady started doing “Caribbean” accents when those countries floated by. It was better, but still pretty bad. I wish there would be a way to just watch it without anyone announcing anything. Just give me subtitles for the French public announcements at the ceremony.

As awful as what happened was, you know what this article doesn’t discuss? Why people are sending their disabled kids to a fucking boarding school in the first place. And then show what loving parents this kid has in the photos.

It wasn’t blood, it was ketchup. The thing he puts on steaks.

I don’t even eat meat and I would never ruin a steak that way.

I’m sorry, did I insult a fan of ketchup on a steak?

Trump is pretty famous for putting ketchup on his steaks like some people use A-1.

Why on Earth does he think this is a good strategy?

I hear he left a lot of precious bodily fluids in his couch.

I don’t know, if Trump drops him, that looks a lot worse for Trump than it did Biden dropping out for Harris. There haven’t been months and months and months of people on both sides saying Biden is unfit for another term.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

He just wants Millennials to be the happy and proud parent Trump is of his children- Ivanka, Don Jr., Derek, Barron, and he doesn’t have any other daughters.

American Football player Brett Favre pronounces his last name “farv” and I wish I knew why.

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

That’s brilliant.

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I guess “Hillary Clinton” and “Joe Biden” are hard to mispronounce without making it sound even more obvious than he likes to be, so he took the opportunity.

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

But, unlike you, Trump has heard it many times. He knows how to pronounce it properly, he just won’t because he’s a racist.

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I’d say the problem begins with the fact that almost no one in the U.S. reads Sanskrit.

I guess, although in WV you’d think he would have had a better chance as a Republican.
