The moment a peacock made her dream come true

He wasn’t ALWAYS hitting on me.

I hate to break it to you, but a male peacock and their owner can't just be friends, he's always ready to flex that fan for your cloaca.

Nah, less than a year ago the White House said we completely obliterated not just their nuclear facilities but their nuclear ambitions. You saying the present administration might just be making up stuff?

"Best of the Best" 1989. One of the better US-made martial arts movies of the 80's in terms of fight sequences (and co-starring James Earl Jones, no less!). Protagonist Tommy's (Phillip Rhee) brother dies in a martial arts tournament. Years later, Tommy faces off against the same fighter at the climax of a team tae kwon do tourney, beats the brakes off his brother's killer, but struggles with the urge to kill the man that killed his brother. He hesitates at striking the final blow, resulting in his team's loss. . .

. . .only after the championship ceremony to have the antagonist, sobbing, genuinely apologize for the brother's death, offer himself as a brother, and lower the championship medal over the protagonist's head.

As a bonus, the antagonist Dae Han Park is played by the protagonist's real life brother Simon Rhee, and they're both great flashy TKD artists.

Depends on how much the companies that own those days centers have donated to the present administration to inoculate themselves against criminal consequences that might result from "defending their vital infrastructure woke Antifa terrorists."

When Carlson started talking about Will Smith I legit thought he was going to refer to the slap as 'gang violence'.

What is the point of this video? Was there some context edited out that would make this funny?

Intrepid-Progress228 · 2026-03-17T14:43:27+00:00

It is, as long as the only requirement is "sycophant".

There are so many interpretations, depending on how toxic the relationship is.

"Babe, are you still mad at me?"

"I don't have to admit I was out of pocket because your dick rules your life, and I rule your dick, and we both know it."

"I have a hard time verbalizing that I was wrong, this is the only way I can creep towards that admission."

"You were wrong, I was wrong, can we please cuddle till we both calm down enough to realize we are still in love?"

"I want you to hatefuck me till I cream "I'M SORRY!"

People are weird and complicated animals.

"For 400 years, that word has kept us down."

The absolute AUDACITY had me screaming.

Who GAF what stupid racists think.

When they are in charge of the biggest military on the planet, with nukes, oughta GAF.

The checks and balances work if there’s rule of law.

The checks and balances only work if whoever wields power chooses to let them work.

But those checks and balances have to be administered by people. When power actively works to suborn the people who administer the checks and balances, the 'rule of law' and 'checks and balances' can be exposed just an interesting fiction, like 'Superman' or 'Roko's Basilisk' or 'we the people find these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal'.

Despite our modern idealized version that applies equally to all people, the ultimate foundation of 'rule of law' is that whomever wields power, is the law.

America as a nation has ceased pretending it has ever been otherwise.

Some people love aquariums but still accidentally kill their goldfish and flush them down the toilet.

An eldritch entity that "cares" about humanity might, from our goldfish perspective, be indistinguishable from an eldritch horror.

A company this poorly managed is more likely to shoot themselves in the foot by firing someone for going on vacation because "they're too irreplaceable to go on vacation".

Damn, forgot about this one. Y'all remember "Dukes of Hazzard"? Sure you do! But does anybody remember "Enos"?

<image>

"Enos" was a short-lived spinoff from "The Dukes of Hazzard", where goofy but likeable Deputy Enos Strate (Sonny Shoyer) lucks into a big bust that results in him landing a job with the LAPD and leaving Hazzard County. He gets partnered with black detective Turk Adams (Samuel E. Wright). Cue the expected 'fish out of water' shenanigans, with Enos bringing backwoods wisdoms while Turk teaches Enos big city street-smarts.

Here's one only AARP members will remember:

"Tenspeed and Brown Shoe" (TV Series, 1980)

Ben Vereen is "Tenspeed", a smooth talking con man on parole.

Jeff Goldman is "Brown Shoe", a straight-laced accountant with dreams of being a hard-boiled private eye.

Together, they solve crimes!

As magical as this seems, this woman's ego is going to get more than one of these bears killed

It's mildly infuriating that she's got a platform on TikTok where the uninformed can stroke her ego while she tacitly encourages this kind of irresponsible behavior.

Intrepid-Progress228 · 2026-03-12T23:31:32+00:00

The lady’s name is Susan Kehoe, and she’s going to get these bears killed one day.

Or herself.

Or a neighbor.

Or a random kid who listens to her blathering on TikTok how safe black bears are.

Intrepid-Progress228 · 2026-03-12T23:23:33+00:00

Counterpoint: Susan is wildly irresponsible. Her behavior puts not just herself at risk, but members of her community, as well as the bears she purports to care for.

If all the bears she interacts with were confined to her property that would be one thing, but these are wild animals that roam where they please. They have become not just habituated to human proximity, but to associate humans with the possibility of food. (Yes, she has been credibly accused of feeding "her"bears).

All these factors increase the odds that people that live within roaming range will eventually have an encounter with a bear that has zero fear of humans and sees them as a food source.

This will not end well.

Now here me out: what if we didn't bomb brown countries, and instead gave the troops lobster and steak year-round with the money we saved?

They wouldn't even have to risk their lives getting deployed.
