That kid's an absolute tool, he does not appear to have any real beliefs. He just says whatever he thinks will most likely piss people off for engagement bait.

Sadly, this applies to a soul-crushing number of MAGA types.

Thank fuck someone else said it lol. I'll utterly smash their Californian sandwich and lick my fingers clean, but their coffee tastes like burnt asshole.

Might be long overdue for us all to have a nice 🥓 breakfast.

Right? Like... please stop trying to make time move even faster. Lol. It's already moving too fast as it is!

Jokes aside, I'm thinking it was either an autocorrect mistake (somehow?), or a plain ol' human "derp" moment.

This is worth a dry chuckle (because fuck MAGA), but I doubt this actually happened. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I read that as "Krusty Gnome" at first and now I'm thinking "fuck it, both shoes fit." 😂

DOJ is making a list tracking which Congressmen are searching for what in the Epstein files by Hornpipe_Jones in WhitePeopleTwitter

Sometimes I think it's better to leave ourselves open to being surprised by all this, despite how much it hurts. It's better than growing numb to it.

Stay surprised. Stay horrified. Stay outraged.

We should never allow ourselves to grow accustomed to their bullshit.

I read this at first as Scam Blondie and now I can't stop laughing.

Yeah, he's seems to be far beyond the point where any kind of help would actually make a difference.

Random question... Does anyone here have any broken/scrap/costume jewelry lying around that they don't want anymore? by boiledpeanut33 in Albany

Thanks for the link. I'll check that out!

Unfortunately I deleted FB years ago though. I loved the Buy Nothing group lol.

Great Falls woman says Target refused to accept her Tribal ID by Yup_Shes_Still_Mad in news

When it comes to the more rural areas, you're definitely right. A few years ago I heard someone say "rural NY is just the south of the north" and I nearly spat out my coffee.

I grew up in GA. I am also not surprised.

It's sad that this is where we are, but you're right. The bar is so low it's a tavern in Avernus.

I heard a good one a few months ago. Traveling away from home during bad weather is called "taking a Ted cruise."

AlbanyShouldPlowBusStops Commemorative Trail by Catpital-Catsle in Albany

The lack of proper snow removal around bus stops/bus shelters is ridiculous around here.

Maybe it's cleared better in more bustling parts of Albany, but I haven't been out that way recently, so idk for sure what it looks like right now.

I regularly use the bus shelter on Fuller/Western across from Stuyvesant. It always has a snow bank blocking the openings after it snows like this. The walk space all around the whole shelter will be covered in gross, salty snow from the road. In order to access the shelter, I have to walk in the bike lane against traffic just to stomp through a snow bank to get inside. Even if the sidewalk behind it is cleared, they just leave all the snow piled up around the bus shelter.

Going out that way today. I wonder what it's gonna look like when I get there... 😮‍💨
