it's at the very least a practice of the national amnesia to pretend some pristine innocence is being sullied for the first time

Violent video games cause violence in real life. Not directly. But the slippery slope fallacy is misused to obfuscate nuance and evade responsibility for how we socialize children.

And it's just silly to say we shouldn't question if children should be consuming military and firearm ads all day.

How can you claim to believe in democracy but have no faith in the people?

"all oppressed people have a right to violence"

One of the small pleasures I take in life is occasionally pretending I've never heard of Star Wars.

yet terrified that if I ever sit down, I'll never stand up again. And I feel the train coming.

I am stuck, teetering on a decision between wanting to want to get better and wanting just to maintain a sustainable level of permanent unhappiness.

Dear white people,

Making a racist joke or insult about someone as contemptible as Candace Owens is still just you being racist.

ooooh-k, that makes sense
Thanks!

I saw a post that said a Japanese museum "white-washed" the terrible history of Imperial Japan.

No hate to that poster but it made me think cause we use white-washing for making whites look better through historical revisionism and in that instance it's apparent why it's white, at least I thought.

I have this one jumpsuit and anytime I'm walking in it in public, Staying Alive by the Bee Gees is on repeat in my head.

If I look at the clock right now and the last two digits make a prime number, I'll start getting ready.

Will they though? The party leadership came together and very publicly stated that the sitting president was not fit for "campaigning" and had declining mental faculties without one utterance of the 25th amendment.

I'd feel much better with:

If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder and war crimes.

I'm not a lawyer but I really don't feel comfortable with this new framing that a military operation killing civilians is not a war crime.

"I get why we're here, [I just don't understand why we're not shooting people]"

Stay away from people who think you're arguing every time you try to express yourself.

I like to say, "I bet you're really smart about other things."

The internet is a crazy place with low barrier to entry. The human brain is complex and involves electricity and chemistry that no one understands. There are going to be opinions of all kinds everywhere. You're never going to stop people dreaming or posting.

Why is Donald Trump pardoning an ex head of state involved in drug trafficking while starting war with another country over drug trafficking?

Someone(probably Peter Thiel through someone else) asked him to.

Is this the same Honduran president that tried to(kinda actually did) sell sovereign territory to Peter Thiel's Prospera against the Honduras Supreme Court...

They have nothing to lose. Conflict is a fuel and a currency. There is no end game or goal.

And this isn't to say for you to stop, only for you to know they are not sincerely engaging. They aren't angry. They aren't even offended. They are laughing snidely, patronizingly, racistly.

I learned Talib Kweli is on bluesky. I wish I could take that back.

(I love Talib Kweli and can hardly believe that's really him but unc has been going at it with /instigators/ for days)
