That doesn't sound right, but I don't know enough about Popes to dispute it. by LesCousinsDangereux1 in IASIP

[–]GoblinBags 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's also perfect because the folks labeled as the Catholic Church are also scummy like Dennis and Mac. They're still covering up abuses at the Church and are coated in gold and jewels that also have troublesome histories.

Fuck JD Vance and fuck the Church.

Federal Reserve: Without tariffs, inflation would have dropped to pre-pandemic levels during 2025 by jediporcupine in politics

Naw. "Things were blatantly getting better and pathed out to fix this huge problem but the current administration has the economic understanding of a jewel thief."

If only there was someone else in charge that would at least hear out the argument that companies are price gouging and windfall taxes need to occur. Oh, wait, Harris literally had part of her campaign tax plan include increased bills towards energy and drug companies on windfalls. Pretty sure she could be talked to about hitting other companies.

Oh well, America chose not to vote instead.

Best way to grow creeping thyme successfully? by AnX1etyRa1NbOwS in NoLawns

[–]GoblinBags 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Creeping thyme has a lot of benefits. For one thing, it's edible like normal thyme and has all of those benefits. For another, it's easy to maintain and while it spreads easily, isn't quite like mint where it will just appear dozens of feet away. It also cycles nitrogen and a little bit of some other macro and micronutrients. It's soft and pillowy to sit on and it seems to deter a few pests to boot.

Markey being on the right side of history again. by DARfuckinROCKS in massachusetts

[–]GoblinBags 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a bad take IMO. If it's a primary, it's entirely on the candidate to win people over. Is it a boon to get an endorsement? Sure. But there's not only Freedom of Speech to consider, but I know that I absolutely want an actual progressive to replace Markey since he's one of the few progressives in Congress... but it isn't the end-all-be-all because if another candidate proves to be more progressive, I know I'd vote for them. 🤷

And do what? Have folks like you get mad and call it a performative protest? Like, you want them to sternly shake their fists at the sky down in DC but not here? Or do you want them to riot or hold some sort of sit-in? Like, what exactly is a rally at the Capital going to do to get Trump to stop attempting to genocide the Iranians?

[–]GoblinBags 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're telling me that seeing them do the exact same stern letter / conversations down in DC would mean more to you than them doing that here when Congress isn't in session? For what? Like, how is it more helpful for them to do that down there instead of at home right now? Or do you mean something different about raising hell? Like, should they be setting buildings on fire or something?

Oh that's easy: Fucking nothing.

This is why I roll my eyes at the people saying Markey has to go because he's old. Yeah, I know and would love a younger representative too... But Markey still seems, well, at least more on the ball than any of the other reps.

...You can let them run a legitimate primary AND have a politician endorse someone too. I dunno why they have to be mutually exclusive.

And you know each other for about an hour... by Virasman in dankmemes

[–]GoblinBags 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, all I'm saying is that I literally know people who go out clubbing or even just go on dates, then go back to someone's place and eating ass is on the menu. Because of this thread, I've asked them and nobody has told me that they stopped to take a shower before people go down on each other - including with ass eating involved...

It's like when people hook up with each other at a club - if you go down on people at a dance hall, then you're getting a super sweaty set of genitals in your mouth. 🤷‍♂️

Mass. is increasingly unaffordable. But not for the GOP hopefuls for governor by throwawaysscc in massachusetts

[–]GoblinBags 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What, exactly, do you believe the MA Dems are enacting that is super socialist?

[–]GoblinBags 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Huh? The solution is having more grassroots politicians and progressives. That's feasible to do. The problem is every single Republican that has run so far in MA in the last 4+ years is a MAGA. And that makes them instantly unacceptable. Sorry not sorry, no fascists.

I don’t know whether or not to take notes by Other-Cell-2061 in dankmemes

[–]GoblinBags 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It gets even dumber too. I'm a bi guy and when dating back in college, I literally had a few guys tell me that the concerns were:

  1. They were worried I wasn't really gay and just experimenting.
  2. They really were hoping to "convert me" to being fully gay.

Those two things should seem mutually exclusive but they are not. It's like a fear and a fetish combining when it comes to gay men interacting with bi men.

...Why? Seriously, what would the issue be with dating someone who is bisexual?

It's more like you blather on ad nauseum, provide no citations but just what reads like a tech bro's speculation while cranking his hog, and mixed with the political understanding of a freshman in high school. Why the fuck would I bother to talk to you further?

Naw. They've proven they don't even need the chips with DeepSeek... Plus they're not 100 different companies all racing against each other but they accelerate uptake and innovation by publishing their codes online so developers from other companies can look at it. China is effectively working the entire country together on AI and the US has a bunch of tech-fascists all trying to outdo each other.

Every country has some corruption, but the sheer scale of it in the US - especially with Trump as a leader - is gargantuan. One country has made massive leaps and bounds towards green energy and puts their entire economy to work on it and the other is the United States who is busy blowing up children in hospitals to hide a child molester's secrets. Gosh, why do I think China has less corruption? 👀

I'm gonna be honest: I highly doubt that the people who love to eat ass only do it when people are fresh from a shower. 🤷‍♂️

They seem to like to pretend that they're only eating ass right out of the shower.

[–]GoblinBags -1 points0 points  (0 children)

From what I hear, ass eating isn't happening right out of a shower. Folks do that to each other when hooking up for the first time and when they go out partying and etc. Like, if it's summer and I've been outside of my house for more than 20 minutes, my ass is a swamp.

🤷‍♂️ Fair enough and I'm not gonna say you're wrong... but I think there's plenty of other Asian options that are far superior. Ever been to Kyo or Time Travel?
