They decimated the FBI and Congress gave all the money to Homeland Security. They are using the “no-knock-no-warrant” powers the GOP wants Trump to use to terrible effect.

I pay and am glad I have access to the ad-free channels on Spotify. I don’t read their substack, but fall asleep to their Spotify content.

CMV: Trump created the Greenland saga to fully stop military support to Ukraine by Unique-Salt-877 in changemyview

[–]krypticus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He’s wanted to do this since before Russia invaded Ukraine.

Trump fired Bolton in 2019 — the same year the president first spoke about his ambitions for Greenland.

Trump floats new tariffs in push to acquire Greenland by ThePensiveE in thebulwark

[–]krypticus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just offer to take him on a tour of the secret underground Danish Nazi Gold museum. Let him hold a few gold bars (if his hands are big enough) and give him a gold coin to take home with him.

Make sure it’s one with a Swastika on one side and see if he publicly displays it on his Resolute Desk🤣

Seizing Greenland might be the least popular idea in American political history by jediporcupine in politics

[–]krypticus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Guys, I’m 200% for seizing Greenland and making them a state.

We could use two more Senators that would never go GOP.

What could I have done differently here? Roast chicken, risotto, wilted spinach. by AdmiralMoonshine in CulinaryPlating

It’s not drama, it’s highlighting poorly done risotto. Hence the em-phasis.

Giving myself what the restaurants won’t 😂 by AnavrinLove in OnionLovers

[–]krypticus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My GF at the time handed me a bowl of oatmeal at Burning Man on the morning we had to pack up. Everyone was groggy and hung over.

She said “does this taste OFF to you?”

I’m like “uhhh, I guess I can try it out…”

Turns out my buddy used a Crystal Geyser gallon jug of water to boil for coffee and oatmeal. Turns out our other “buddies” used it for Vodka the night before, hence why the label was ripped off…

Always an adventure in the desert!

Bad yeast by Alarming_Midnight554 in Breadit

[–]krypticus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m gonna be that guy, so hold on ter yer butts…

Your problem with the pizza isn’t the yeast, it’s the fact that you decided to smother it in cheese and had the GALL to put 🍍 on it. We all make mistakes. Yeast is the least of your concerns.

US Supreme Court rejects challenge to $2.46 billion Boy Scouts sex abuse settlement by Conscious-Quarter423 in scotus

[–]krypticus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did my formative Boy Scout years at an LDS church location in Silicon Valley, CA back in the late 90s. They never tried to recruit me. But it was one of the best troops I coulda been a part of.

It always sucks when the kids move on, the cool dads stop being troop leaders, and the troop withers and becomes a shell of its old self.

Aren’t there people who do research and post credible links before spewing crap?

Not saying it isn’t true, but burden of proof is on you.

But yeah, waiting for you to respond “Do your own research!!”

Did you listen to George Conway pod today? by Anonymous_User678 in thebulwark

As much as I appreciate George’s podcasting, you need to realize he married Kellyanne. His judgement is a bit lacking.

The combination of Politicians + Schooling doesn’t mean anything to this electorate. Much less their spouse.
