If there's one person I trust to know turning points in history with exquisite precision it's Francis Fukayama

Or being put into a coma because of apple cider vinegar.

This whole thread is so important and necessary to read, along with all of the replies.

Honestly, how can people not understand that politics are *so* *complicated* and that there are so many variables and considerations? We, the responsible adults, bear such a heavy burden dealing with these childish simpletons. We deserve some kind of award for it, actually.

cactuscloudsart Today I discovered a woman called "Angie the ICE Chaser" on TikTok and she literally just follows ICE vehicles in her car. They become increasingly erratic in their attempts to lose her (breaking sooo many laws on camera) and they never do. She is single handedly striking terror into ICE agents across LA. She also follows them through neighborhoods honking her horn and shouting "THEY ARE ICE!" out her window. There is a GFM for gas money and the legal fees she is fully expecting to come around.

Yeah, I was a little drink at the time and I had recently seen how old he looks now and I know I'm going to miss him

LOL! WV wishes it could be Gaithersburg, which probably has a higher GDP than the whole state

Yes! I did, too. Did we first see the Man Under the Seats in the morning show, or the first night show?

"Fight Song" makes Rebecca Black's "Friday" sound like Mozart's Requiem

Your music teacher needs to go to the gulag

I swear I'm not making this up, but I just witnessed a group singing this karaoke-style a couple of nights ago at the Jalan Alor night market in Kuala Lumpur.

It was a good opportunity to tell the people I was with that my mother was from West Virginia and hated this song.

Pre-emptive RIP for Dave Letterman, who I loved all the way back in the mid-80s

As someone who painstakingly learned that intro on guitar when I was much younger and less wiser, I concur

Free to go bankrupt from medical debt

USA!

Free to die poor in a ditch

USA!

Free to be shot dead at school as an 8 year-old

USA!

Free to be shot dead by cops who will get a promotion

USA!

Free to vote for the single-party oligarchy

USA!

And as anyone with half a brain cell knows, that mythical freedom is the most grotesque lie when every generation's life chances is going to be much worse than that of their parents. But at least I know I'm free! USA! USA! USA!

Right? It has always been baffling that the line "where at least I know I'm free" wasn't an immediate red flag to everyone hearing it. At least? As in, you can't say anything else except "I'm free"? It may be the shittiest fucking life for any non-millionaire, "but at least I know I'm free!"
