🤔Um... This is exactly the America I grew up in. Do y'all know how many times I've been stopped by the cops for no reason and searched?

Ok, so she's 4'11 and under 100 lbs. I was 4'11 once, but today I'm 6'3 and over 300 lbs. What exactly is the height/weight cutoff where it's OK to pull me over?

Yeah, you can do the grift the other way, vote like a Republican but run as a Dem, with the legally required yearly June 1rst Pride flag photo, but it's death the other way around. It remains culture war first on the right, no matter the cost.

Banana Bunny? Wasn't she friends with Milkshake Duck?

Sydney Sweeney realizing chuds don't go to movies and going "oh uhhh I stand against hate" is so funny

That's crazy that all those pro-racism Russian and Indian twitter accounts didn't result in US ticket sales!

Nor do public defenders, I suppose, the direct subject of the comment I was replying to.

If you think the treatment of the poor is quite different in civil vs criminal courts, though, I don't know what to say.

I do really appreciate Biden's public defender picks, but you know the other judges do know, right?
The difference is they approve of the treatment of the poor. A whole lot of them were the foully villainous prosecutors themselves. The legal system is working exactly as those who run it intend.

sorry about your cookies this is probably TMI

I don't use nyt for recipes so I had no idea this was going on

This explains so much.

As an autistic person I learned the power of this many years ago. It's awesome in conflict. Definitely memorize what to say to cops.

I also eventually came to the conclusion it's not much use in friendly relationships. That's not the situation here, just leaving a note for others.

sounds like a made up problem whose "solutions" will exclusively harm disabled people.

We'll all have seen every good (and terrible) line in a week anyway.

the thing has happened again where i see someone brag about how anyone concerned about LLMs in tech is just scared because they're probably a shitty programmer. Go through their search history and they're admitting to avoiding junior hires because they can just use LLMs instead.

I finished the brother sister coffee commercial just like you asked me to, boss. Real sexy.

I'm telling the kids this was early ai slop cringe. It's the only way to redeem the 80's.

my app will bring your grandpa back. his voice, his smile, his memories of you. just how you remember him. but he's not frozen in amber. you and him are making new memories. and he's a communist now. he hates america. and he's gay. he's still grandpa, and he's embraced jihad

There's another dimension to this Rosa Parks story that you may not know. This is where the story most often gets mis-narrated.

The bus driver is often left out as a faceless entity and passive part of the story, but he is important to this story.

If you want to see how that all came together, read Sam Adams. There's a reason the founders called him the "Father of the Revolution", but everyone with money has slandered him as "the beer guy" ever since.
See also Aaron Burr, tied with Jefferson for the presidency, only remembered as a villain.

For sure! I'm just saying it's a shockingly widespread phenomenon. In the "blue" city I live in, the Democrats could run as Republicans in many states. Which "Dem" I vote for mostly just determines which contractors mysteriously always have the lowest construction bid (plus overruns!) for 4 years.

It's crazy how far right nonsense absolutely requires cooperation from the many "blue" mayors and governors.

Some of them talk a good game, but then it's all "Can't stop 'em!" and "Gosh, we just have to pay the overtime and replace all that tear gas, time to raise their budget again!"

photo of tons of decals for sale as part of the variety park. They are all rectangles and colorful and have curse words, there are several dozen

I went ahead and set up a Black Friday sale and almost forgot to tell y'all lmao. Almost everything is 10-25% off. A lot of stuff ships free in the US. That means there are a lot of postcards and decals you can get delivered to your door for ~$2.70.

Most stuff is 10% off. That's because my prices are already low. Like if you buy one postcard or sticker I make $0.75-1.50 or so after all the costs (before taxes). But some of the higher-priced items are 25% off.

All the variety packs are 10% off:

I especially like the genre of bad cop realizes he's boned by his own dirty past so becomes the hero good cop with nothing to lose on one last ride.

No, future extrajudicial killings don't wipe out previous extrajudicial killings, but "bad cop takes out a bunch of other bad cops" is entertaining.

Oof. That does pretty well match my experience.
