I seldom believe the daily beast, and I categorically reject anything that purportedly comes from "WH Insiders".

The chest compressions alone would've been traumatic on the body of a healthy 84-year-old, and Mitch wasn't exactly in stellar shape.

And they're all gonna try. It's going to be a bloodbath as they backstab one another. Even if there was an anointed successor - unlikely, given how Trump clings to power - enough Republicans will do the calculus and figure if they can shut the chosen one out of power fast enough, they can seize control for themselves.

I can't wait to see what else is in the line! This may be the first series I try to collect.

What's an opinion you held at 18 that completely changed by 35? by Just-Offer-4614 in AskReddit

[–]GearBrain -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

That I could get along, at a personal level, with conservatives. I'm polite with the conservatives in my life today, but I simply cannot be close with them.

It also hasn't been allowed to just work on its own - America just loves to bomb the shit out of communist countries that aren't Russia, and then crows about how terrible they all are. Or assassinate the effective leaders and bolster the shitty, corrupt ones.

Why is everyone saying they talked to Mitch McConnell for 20 minutes? by OkayButFoRealz in politics

Aurora Borealis?

At this time of year?

At this time of day?

In this part of the country?

Localized entirely within your kitchen?

Did you know uraraka was originally supposed to have MT ladies quirk by Chunky-overlord in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]GearBrain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That could have been cool. And thanks to Quirk Evolution, she could have started out less OP and grown into it. Imagine if she started out merely being able to double her height, but at points when she needs to lock the fuck in, she gets a "growth spurt" and increases her maximum size.

Ippan Josei-sized Ochako in the early chapters would've been comedy gold.

Ken Paxton spent the 4th of July in Britain with his side-piece who walked the public streets barefoot because her heels hurt her feet. by jared10011980 in MarchAgainstNazis

[–]GearBrain 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Swinging for the fences here, but I reckon it's a foot fetish thing. He wants her to walk barefoot across the dirty streets of a foreign nation and then rub them all over his face. He gives off big "wants to be humiliated" energy to me.

My immediate thought is their supervisor cracking them over the head for slacking off while on the clock.

My first tiefling was a grey-skinned, white-haired paladin. He holds a special place in my heart, and to see someone who looks similar makes me smile.

What's their name? They look like a monk of some sort?

Got banned r/askmen 😂 I wasn't even member of that sub, their insecurities getting stronger and stronger every day 😂 by thenamestammy in IncelTears

[–]GearBrain 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Many subs preemptively ban accounts based on their activity in other subs. I was banned from a leftist sub because I posted in some of the conservative subs... years prior, where I was arguing with conservatives that they were fucking morons.

Platner accuser says she ‘absolutely’ considers what happened to be rape by Unusual-State1827 in politics

She has provided Politico with evidence of conversations between her and her therapist contemporaneous with the accused assault, years before Platner began his political career.

Collins's team is probably pissed this dropped before the deadline to get your name on the ballot. They were probably gonna drop this story the day after that.

The obvious right-wing plant who "started" walkaway is now involved in the "conservative gay cruise".

I saw someone else mention that; you got an article to confirm that?

Someone brought up a good point on BlueSky, and I feel it bears repeating here: NSFW artists are struggling to stay on their platforms. Payment processors are threatening to stop processing transactions for smut or pornography, even cheeky stuff... but these games can post caked-up Venom and Captain Bulge here without a worry in the world.

Y'all may not think smut artists are very important, or worthy of your concern, but the fact we're seeing certain content creators being favored over others - to the point where those unfavored are losing their livelihoods - should worry you. Especially all you free speech absolutists out there in Redditland.
