Any such article is a lie, those assholes knew exactly what they were doing. Most of the fascist majority on the court are active participants in the coup that brought this regime to power, the rest are sympathizers.

I live in portland so I imagine the bars here will have drink specials, parks will be filled with celebrating stoners, etc.

Probably we’ll walk to the nearest clump of bars and join the celebration.

We definitely didn’t, the rich did.

Our system was never designed to represent the wishes of the people. And it doesn’t.

The apathy of many us citizens to the idea that their government could possibly matter to them is a direct result of a massive legal, and influence campaign by far right elites, their representatives in government and their allies overseas. A functional state is supposed to have institutions to combat that.

The effectiveness of the current far right coup is a failure of our institutions, and the low participation of many in the US is a symptom of that failure, not a cause.

30% of the adult population voted for him.

We’re not even a democracy, there’s literally no way he could represent anyone but the rich.

Cloacal gifting.

The yellow should be orange and the green should be yellow and labeled “carcereal slavery”

The world has never trusted the US. Because of all that stuff we do to it.

Europe trusted the US, from around the mid 40s until the bush regime. That’s the so called “american century”, from the US entering ww2 until “WMDs in iraq” - about 60 years.

Lumber has a million uses.

Looks great! Those potatoes look amazing as does the hollandaise. Have you tried making hollandaise with a little dill?

There’s one brunch place here where the hollandaise is just miles better than anything i’d ever had, all others now seem bland in comparison. It was so good i forgot that hollandaise doesn’t normally have dill and started whinging about why places keep forgetting to add dill.

This gun i made is not for shooting.

Strong top 5 episodes contender.

Apparently the korean animators, years later, still had kingsize homer drawings around their desks because they all just thought he was hilarious.

The fingers you have used to dial are too fat. To obtain a special dialing wand, mash your hand against the keypad now.

Again, that is all pretty much spot on our situation. We have elaborate heat-management rituals involving the cat, a fan, and multiple layers of blankets being tucked/shucked as needed. She is also not yet into the hot flashes.

I’ve long presumed this is one of those PCOS-is-ridiculously-understudied issues.

And yes, thank you! We’re both often surprised at our ability to come to mutually supportive solutions - just like real grownups! 😂

Loooove a stoned walk, about to head out now and look at some gardens. Only thing better is a gentle-dose-of-shrooms-walk.

My partner is like this too. Seperate sheets and blankets. She puts up with a bit of my cuddle-lust, but you can tell she doesn’t like it. She has mentioned a pillow wall. But she finds sleeping seperately to be just devestating, and even during our worst arguments she wants me in the same bed.

Ehhh, not really. We also have associations with past events and emotions are a bit culturally mediated, but the neurotransmitters are doing the heavy lifting.

Our emotions are just a chemical system. The subjective experience feels more complicated than just “now i have oxytocin”, but lots of things feel different than they really are.

That seems like a shortsighted build - shouldn’t ebussy be expected to tank a few hits?

It has 20 hit points?

What was it the supreme court said about pornography - i know it when i see it? It’s one of those things that defy hard and fast rules, but are still identifiable.

Paying to be taken up everest requires a lot of cash and free time, it speaks to a level of vanity and it has that buying my name onto an accomplishment vibe.
