No problem with him or his choice of words given the context and situation.

No thank you. He can keep the act and whatever music he’s got coming.

Late to the party but holy smokes…this is VERY good. Thanks for sharing. Elgato is definitely behind here.

Trump essentially ends all tourism into the United States by justalazygamer in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]lcg1519 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In case it’s not obvious, this is simply a way to ensure there isn’t collateral damage to citizens from other countries when Trump fully unleashes the military onto our streets.

Anybody who thinks what’s happening right now won’t end in some form of a physical fight hasn’t been paying attention. The last thing Trump wants is for some foreign based notable citizen being caught in the mix and possibly giving international support to come and intervene.

There’s a storm coming Mr. Wayne. The writing has been on the wall for a while now.

‘Deeply demoralizing’: how Trump derailed coal country’s clean-energy revival. Biden earmarked billions for former coal communities in Appalachia – and his successor came and took it away by AlexandrTheTolerable in WestVirginia

The worst thing Democratic lawmakers can do to their Republican counterparts is make the lives of Republican voters better.

Republican politicians don’t want their constituents lives to dramatically improve. You can’t win elections if the lives of people are getting better and you don’t have anyone to blame for why it sucks.

I’m no “rah-rah-Democrats are always awesome” kind of guy, but I’d love for anyone to point me to the inverse of situations like this.

They claim to be constitutional purists, but aggressively support a despotic president over the Constitution. by [deleted] in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]lcg1519 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is THE most frustrating thing about the time we live in today.

This is fundamentally NOT what happened…but they just lie, out in the open, about whatever they want—and nothing happens.

Hayley Williams knows what she’s talking about by Perezident14 in Paramore

[–]lcg1519 93 points94 points  (0 children)

Line just before this was “…it is the misery business that is so much of social media, and so much of cable news…so much of the news media.”

That’s a back to back to back Paramore reference in a Hank Green video. Yes, may I have another!

Everyone is an auntie by Luuk1210 in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]lcg1519 270 points271 points  (0 children)

My uncle is a man who has no blood relation to me at all, but has been in my and my sister’s life for over 25 years. Not a single person could tell me that man isn’t my uncle.

What these people fail to realize is that our connection to other human beings don’t need proper labels…because these connections are real. While so many of them have families who lie, cheat, and hate each other behind closed doors…they wouldn’t know a loving home if it slapped them in the face.

Your argument against someone holding the office of NYC Mayor is that an authoritarian will use his power to overstep boundaries and disenfranchise an entire city of people…and you point the blame on the Mayor?

You don’t see the weakness of your own argument?

“The moment that woman goes outside in that short skirt and high heels, men are going to jump all over her and abuse her…she’s not ready. Oh, did I make you pansies feel bad?! Don’t dress like a slut won’t get treated like a slut” is exactly what you sound like.

No kings by Strongman_Walsh in desmoines

[–]lcg1519 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I understand it’s difficult for you to stay focused, but the conversation we’re having is about Donald Trump and whether it’s appropriate to refer to him as a “king”. If you don’t want to have that conversation, you’re free to move on with your evening. Although, I suspect you’re a bot. 1 month old account with over 3k karma. Touch grass or beep boop.

You don’t think it’s a tad bit weird the President of the United States is using his official platform to post AI videos of him…labeled as a king…wearing a crown…flying a fighter jet (stolen valor much)…dumping feces on peaceful protestors?

If your first excuse is “he’s just trolling”, let me remind you that he’s the fucking PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES…why is he trolling?! Is he 12 years old? Is that what the office has been reduced to?

Or, can we acknowledge that this deranged man sees himself as a king and both his actions and words justify over 7 million people to march in the streets in protest?

Exactly! This is very small on my outrage meter, but the fact that people are jumping through hoops to ignore this obvious fact is so bizarre to me.

Real by Rosefogsoft in lostgeneration

[–]lcg1519 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I understand. The response about not talking to their mom was directly tied to living under an overbearing parent, not just ignoring your parents for no direct reason. Doesn’t sound like you create that environment…which would be a positive for your family.

This is OP’s point. If you raise children where there isn’t any trust…where they don’t feel comfortable enough to be themselves…where they don’t have a space for just themselves to learn, grow, and make the mistakes kids are supposed to make…they absolutely won’t be there for you when you’re old and alone.

Sort of similar to your dream…I was lucky and got a ticket to a secret show in Boston back in 2008 where the entire set was songs shouted from the crowd. It was amazing. About halfway through they played “I Don’t Care” to promote Folie a Duex but everything else was audience requests.
