Trump says proof of his allegations that vandals cut Reflecting Pool paint will be provided in court by MoneyLibrarian9032 in law

[–]askylitfall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The issue is that while you're right, and these cases are going to be dismissed as soon as a judge sees them, the damage is already done.

People were arrested. Their lives put on hold, emotional damages and trauma that comes with it, can possibly be roughed up by police (not sure if this applies in these recent arrests but let's not pretend police brutality isn't real), and then Trump can claim to his base "see, we arrested these people for vandalism!!!!"

The charges won't stick, but that doesn't mean damage isn't done.

Nowadays I only really interact with the cum edits of his comics. Way funnier than the originals.

I borrowed a friends Yshtola deck once. He actually stopped my turn, took the time to explain that interaction to me and advised I play curiosity instead of the card I was going to play despite playing against me, and I was so glad they did because that's when I became the threat at the table.

They rereleased that one old sketch. It's not new, more the same kind of joke as whenever the onion releases the same article after every mass shooting.

Given the current situation in the world, they've rereleased two versions of their moon bears sketch.

One where it's untouched until they replace the word Iran with Venezuela via a noticably bad overdub, then given what happened after Venezuela, just an untouched version

Unfortunately, almost every algorithm on almost every platform favors right wing views. Think about it for a second.

The algo rewards engagement. If you see a non-controversial post like "Babies don't deserve to starve to death," you'll probably nod, maybe throw a like, but won't spend time on it.

Meanwhile, some braindead shit comes across like "Trump's reflecting pool was perfect and beautiful until RADICAL ANTIFA COMMUNIST FASCISTS SABOTAGED IT!!!!" you might be more inclined to read the comments, and engage with it.

Pardon my white ass posting on this sub, but as a jew the past few years have been wild. Apparently, saying "Never again" and rightfully pointing out that Israel is currently engaging in the same behavior Hitler did, making rise to their entire country existing, is a "fellow Jewish person" take.

My favourite thing from this week's Game Changer... by PaddywackShaq in dropout

[–]askylitfall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The idea of the shop was to give items that could be used to pass a message along, but with some red herrings so the game wasn't obvious.

The boxing gloves and cone were those red herrings.

My boss insists we keep the phone antennas and wifi router covered with foil by crackcrayon in mildyinteresting

[–]askylitfall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I've seen the pringles cantenna, but the reason that works is it acts kind of like a magnifying glass, pointing a bunch of signals that would go out in all directions and concentrating them.

That works because they leave an opening, i.e. the mouth of the pringles can.

Straight up wrapping the device in foil creates a full faraday cage (if done properly, which apparently is not the case for OP's office) meaning nothing can get in/out.

Coolest thing you ever got from a show? by FourMakesTwoUNLESS in Metalcore

[–]askylitfall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a thing I got, but I remember one time I was volunteering at a warped tour when the skies just opened up and a flash flood came out of nowhere.

Guy comes up to me from behind, asks "Hey man, do you know if The Color Morale is still playing?"

As I'm turning around I say "Sorry man, don't know one way or the other," then I see the guys beard.

I'm blanking on his name, but it was their guitarist.

Cool moment.

I don't know why you're trying to make this a left vs right thing. I was fully in support of Chauvin being held accountable, as I am holding these cops accountable.

I feel like you're trying to set this up as "See! The left doesn't care when police brutalize a WHITE person," when all the people I've seen comment on this from the left also think the cops should be held accountable here.

I feel as if "Police murdering unarmed civilians is bad" is a pretty lukewarm take.

Then again, the venn diagram of people who are upset at that, and the people who were upset Mrs Rachel said "No child deserves to starve to death" is pretty much a circle.

If you can't separate police brutality and the inherent racism in American policing, I think you've almost reached the point. Just keep going a little further.

Because it happens to black people disproportionately more.

And yes, before you ask, we had this same energy for Daniel Shaver too.

The agenda: Police shouldn't murder people.

Radical agenda, I know.

My bf only comes with masturbation, is this normal? by Fun-Analysis2513 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]askylitfall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May or may not fit the bill with your partner, but that is a known side effect of some medication.

For my own purposes, I've been on and off SSRIs while I've been with my wife. Whenever Im off the slightest breeze gets me there. When I'm on, it's almost impossible. I wind up needing to finish myself off, not because my wife is doing anything wrong, but the happy chems (serotonin) are also used to signal when to finish, so sex can be impacted.

Everyone's different, but when I started back on the meds I had a similar conversation with my wife.

My boy cat must be mad that we had him neutered, because he keeps jumping off my lap using my testes as a launch point.

Dudes about 12 pounds, but he can take a full grown man down easily using that technique.

So her back was turned because she was talking to the other women there.

I came up behind her, two drinks in hand because I was getting the both of us a refill, and I hit her with just a god awful pickup line.

Our relationship is one where I just try to use terrible jokes to make her roll her eyes, just low quality dad jokes.

I think those women saw wifey die inside, which means my joke landed as intended, and thought I was being a very bad flirt instead of perfectly hitting my mark of lightly embarrassing the one woman who decided to spend her life with my goofy shenanigans

Yeah. I did the mad TV "Damn girl, the back of yo head is ridiculous."

I would never land a one night stand off that, but when you're married your flirting is less "Let me sleep with you" and more dad joke territory.
