Philip K Dick, something of a personal expert on the boundary between the sane and the mad, once said that reality is that which continues to exist when you stop believing in it. No matter what immediate expediency abandoning the truth and reality can give you, it always ends in ruin.

New Orleans couple discovers ancient Roman grave marker in their yard Discovery of 1,900-year-old headstone dedicated to Roman sailor sets off effort to repatriate item to Italy

Incredible journey. This Roman tombstone has travelled further than the man it commemorates. It seems to have come to New Orleans probably through post WW2 looting.

I think I understand the example. Thanks for explaining!

Thanks for the information! I have a question about one of the things I saw in the thread. In the quoted post, you said that deductibles at the beginning of the year hurt more than at the end of the year. Why is that?

Oh my God. They didn't even spray the right fucking hole. They sprayed the hole for inflating the suit, not the breath hole.

Amazing. A+ personnel quality here.

They’re using American tax dollars to fund infrastructure in Argentina because that’s where they’re all going to flee when we kick them out of office

they call it z-dicking, cap, it’s when a republican man gets called “weird” by a woman and he suddenly takes off all his clothes and crimps his dick in a car door a bunch of times, then tries to shove it into the space between the arm of the couch and a cushion, it’s sick, man, i’m tellin’ you

one of the things that's so shocking about all of the recent ICE footage (they've clearly been encouraged to go apeshit) is how undisciplined and unprofessional they are, like, these people make local riot police look like pros, and i guarantee those police see that, too

a competent authoritarian regime would understand that maintaining good relationships with local security forces is an absolute top priority, because things can get very bad for the regime in a hurry if metro police decide they’re the enemy

ur welcome

I know, but I hope it happens anyways. Given their current leader, it would be really good if it did happen.

I want you to know that this was the last post I saw tonight before I went to sleep. 0/10, I need to find better reading material.

I suppose that the best we could hope for if that coalition wins is that the stove is harsh, yet fair.

This is really bad. I have hope the LDP gets flattened in the next general election.

We can make sure he is, thanks to CRISPR.

Honestly, if we can just wait it out, we can clone Obama one every four years (maybe slightly more often in case the unexpected happens) so we can keep the Obamaclone dynasty running until they are no longer needed.

I’ve only seen the older one, and that was around a decade ago, but I remember that one being really good.

Democrats Must Embrace War Mindset We have exited a long period of peace and entered into a struggle not unlike war, in which all the old certainties have gone malleable and the future of the republic is at stake.

this piece has been in the works a while but honestly i could not have asked for a better foil than ezra klein's interview with ta-nehisi coates. klein longs for peacetime--but you don't get to decide when you're in a fight.

On the one hand, damn, I’m graduating just before this hits universities.

On the other hand, damn, I’m graduating JUST before this hits universities!

Probably shouldn’t have picked a joke that depends on delivery to be funny, but I think it still works.

Also; isn’t one of the huge discussions around article 5 that NATO member nations can choose how they respond to Article 5 being authorized?

So if these aggressive and crazy actions were taken, isn’t it possible for NATO allies to respond “here’s five guys, one gun, and no ammo, get ‘em tiger”?

The part of this thread I like what is that the author is so mad about this that they can go into incredible detail about everything that’s wrong. Bookmarking this for later so I can pick it back up.

It’s very late at night, and I’m trying to read this whole thread because it’s very entertaining, but I have to stop here because I need to sleep.

this article shows how critical local partnerships are for ICE to hit their numbers, which is why you should keep the pressure on your local city governments to refuse cooperation with them

Pritzker compares Trump to Putin, calls for invoking 25th Amendment for suggesting military use Chicago as "training grounds" After President Trump suggested Chicago should be used as "training grounds for our military," Gov Pritzker said the 25th Amendment should be invoked to remove the president from office, saying "there...

"It appears that Donald Trump not only has dementia set in, but he's copying tactics of Vladimir Putin. Sending troops into cities, thinking that that's some sort of proving ground for war.. is just, frankly, inane and I'm concerned for his health"
