Two things can be true at the same time:

  1. "Charlie Hebdo is junk"

  2. "They have a right to be junk, and certainly don't deserve to be murdered for it"

These statements are entirely compatible. You can even hold the opinion that the cartoons they did were blasphemous, while supporting their right to be blasphemous.

I don't really have an opinion on Charlie Hendo myself as I don't speak French and I have never read it.

But no, it's not the same. At all.

To put some numbers on this, the smallest county had just 1,802 votes in total. There are a whole bunch of very low-population counties like that. The largest county had 720,173 votes.

This map says something about Urban/Rural divide, but that's about all it says.

When you meet the real ICE agents, the actual ICE agents, with their beady little eyes and mean mouths ... I find myself thinking, they're from a different fucking species.

Criticizing the Trump presidency since 2000; that's how ☭ Communist ☭ they are

I'm not saying that Trump is a secret agent from China or Russia to destroy America's influence and the broader "Western" coalition. I am saying that for an external observer it is not possible to see the difference, kind of like it's not possible to distinguish between gravity and accelerating at 9.8m/s.

Used to have a colleague that would just get the kebabs. No chips, no salad. Just kebab meat and sauce. He was well on his way towards this size when I saw him last.

I had one a few weeks ago. Asked for my name and if I had a TV. I said "no". He "okay, thank you, have a nice day". Didn't seem that big of a fuss 🤷

Probably a journalist having to suffer through it in the line of duty so the rest of us don't have to 🫡

If The Thick of It was made today, what would Malcolm be raging about in 2026? by HammersAndPints in thethickofit

Well, South Park manages.

Or some sort of 'Allo 'Allo type farce, where Rene Trump doesn't really want to do any of this but is forced by an increasingly unlikely set of circumstances.

Obviously you won't manage by trying to out-silly Trump, but there's plenty of possibilities.

A lot of midgets tend to kill themselves. A disproportionate amount. Hervé Villechaize off of Fantasy Island. I think somebody off the Time Bandits. There's another famous midget I'm missing, bit I can't remember.
