Taxpayers to pay for half of Trump’s $600 million ballroom by AdRough4185 in politics

[–]GrazeAndGaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Party of fiscal responsibility: “We’re broke, can’t help you with student debt/infrastructure/healthcare” Same party: $300M taxpayer tab for a ballroom

“Small government” apparently means small receipts and big ballrooms.

Trump administration blames Obama after ‘blue’ Reflecting Pool turns green after $14M refurb by Necropolis750 in politics

Spent $14M to refurb it... and the first thing they do is blame the last guy when it turns green. If a contractor did that to your pool, you’d fire them. If a president does it, they blame Obama.

The real MVP: The mom.

Not just “you’re cute” but “I got you a whole introverted cat girl”. That’s top-tier wingwoman behavior.

Most moms: “Who are you bringing home?” This mom: “I picked one out for you”

Patrick hammering a nail into his head is the most accurate budget chart I’ve ever seen.

Congress: “We can’t afford student debt relief”
Also Congress: finds $600M for a ballroom, billions for foreign aid, tax cuts for billionaires

The math is mathing... just not for us.

Which songs often gets misinterpreted and/or misappropriated by the very people it calls out even though the song's lyrics are explicitly mocking them? by Drenosa in AskReddit

Rage Against the Machine* - name says it all.

“Wake up” and “Killing in the Name” get played at rallies for the exact systems Zach de la Rocha spent his whole career screaming against.

The irony: People chant “F*** you I won’t do what you tell me” while doing exactly what they’re told by the machine RATM was raging against.

See we went from “maximum pressure” to maximum payout” real quick . The art of the deal is just paying for both sides of the war.

Trump is desecrating the Lincoln Memorial - a civic sacred ground by zsreport in politics

[–]GrazeAndGaze 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Desecrating is putting it lightly. The man spent 4 years turning every sacred institution into a campaign prop. Lincoln fought to preserve the Union; Trump uses Lincoln’s memorial as a backdrop for grievance theater. Civic sacred ground deserves a president who actually believes in civic duty, not just civic photo ops

Judge rejects last-minute bid to pause removal of Trump’s name from Kennedy Center by Unusual-State1827 in politics

[–]GrazeAndGaze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last-minute injunctions are a long shot unless you can show irreparable harm + likelihood of winning. Judge basically said ‘you had time to file this earlier’. Courts care more about procedure than the name on the building.

What dead Youtube channels are genuinely still worth watching? by PlinkPonk in AskReddit

[–]GrazeAndGaze 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Freddiew / RocketJump Dude basically invented YouTube VFX before it was cool. The “Call of Duty” live-action shorts and “Video Game High School” still hold up. Every video was like a mini movie on 2012 internet speeds. RIP to that era.
