some_guy , 2 months ago to news in Russia is on fire: forests and houses are burning en masse in Siberia, urgent evacuation has begun

I thought they were massively flooded? I guess both can be true when you have a huge country.

It pisses me off when I can’t find which tab or window is playing audio when I restore tabs after a reboot.

I call my tux Sillybutt as a nickname.

I could get away with ten contempt of court charges and not go to jail. /s

“In the fake news media, there are two sets of rules, and conservative[s] are always treated differently,” she continued. “That’s why Americans don’t trust the Fake News.”

I’m a snowflake! I’m a snowflake! I’m a snowflake!

It was around 2019 that I realized that conservatives have a persecution complex. I thought I’d unlocked some secret truth. Nope. It’s obvious to all of us who pay attention (I just hadn’t been paying attention).

Wow. Fucked up. There was a guy whose last name was Coward. What a terrible name. I suppose at least they died quickly without suffering.

While you’re right and my post addressed the same failure / bullshit, writing a long message as an opener would be seen as strange today. It’s not the typical format and would trigger a red-flag for a lot of people. I’m talking six paragraphs, which was how I used to open comms before smartphone apps.

I don’t have time to read a wall of text. My answer stands. Don’t call cops for mental health issues. Goodbye.

Lying liar lies, gets caught lying, changes story, more lies to come.

some_guy , 2 months ago to news in Media coverage of campus protests tends to focus on the spectacle, rather than the substance

Well, we wouldn’t want to help spread their message, would we? /s

some_guy , 2 months ago to news in University of Mississippi: ‘abhorrent’ counter-protesters condemned

The Mississippi governor, Tate Reeves, who himself recently declared April as Confederate Heritage Month and April 29 as Confederate memorial day, celebrated the counter-protesters in a tweet that some say drew parallels to former Mississippi governor Ross Barnett, a proud segregationist.

[…]

Reeves captioned a video of the counter-protesters singing the American national anthem with “the ‘protests’ at Ole Miss today. Watch with sound. Warms my heart. I love Mississippi!”

We knew Mississippi was a trash state, but they felt the need to remind us. Disgusting behavior. Cheers to the kids who made up the protest and especially the one with the sign pointing out that Jesus was Palestinian. Watch the documentary, The Mayor, for insight into Palestinian pride for his origin in their land.

Obligatory: Fuck the South.
