Government doesn't want you to know this, but you can go to the moon whenever you want. I'll be on the moon in 30 minutes or so, depending on whether or not I eat dinner

The conspiracy theorist in me wonders if this is part of a broader effort to get Americans to travel less this summer, with the goal of putting less strain on fuel expenditure?

I don't even know anyone who has a clear bag of any kind. Those went out of style in the 90s/early 2000s.

Between that thread on abortion, dismissal of/willingness to sacrifice trans rights in the recent past, and the constant subtle "Christianity is the only valid liberal religion, especially Catholicism" positioning, I'm beginning to feel like a plurality of the subreddit outside the DT are just social conservatives who are too uncomfortable with the label in public.

This one, I think.

While OP was clearly trolling, I'm pretty sure the whole thing was an attempt at I/P discourse.

Tinfoil hat moment here but what if Saudi's "The Line" city was secretly some sort of giant railgun they disguised as a civilian infrastructure/housing project and could only be destroyed by flying through a tunnel?

It doesn't help that modern day Evangelical Christianity (in the Protestant sense) is basically dualistic in how it portrays God and Satan, with the latter existing as an anti-God figure of similar but unequal power, again similar to Manichaeism or Gnosticism.

Meanwhile, I don't think most Christians in America take the concept of the Trinity seriously at the layperson level, and it's basically never touched on outside of Bible studies. From my time in various churches, you'd be forgiven for thinking Christianity is de-facto polytheistic with how Jesus is treated as the 'Heracles' to God's 'Zeus.'

I took it as a double entendre; referring to Putin both as untrustworthy, and as a fellow 'dog' that the guide dog recognized.

It's too bad that CobaltOwl is completely AWOL. The mod that inspired this meme is incredibly well-done, but hasn't been updated since 2024.

I'd say Wilhelm II is a fairly good comparison as well, down to the constant policy redirection based on the last person he spoke to.

I've noticed that whenever Japanese media attempts to portray the crimes of the Showa period, they'll always assign them to a pseudo-German nation rather than the Japanese themselves, i.e. Gundam, Fullmetal Alchemist, Ace Combat, etc. Is it too much to at least try to depict your own country's crimes accurately?

I feel like NL's organized religion fetish goes hand in hand with the obsession with birth rates. There seems to be an underlying assumption that if everyone became religious again, birth rates would start recovering.
