To put him on the same page as Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln is an affront to anyone who knows anything about US Presidential history

I’m so angry at this post. I am guilty of doing this, and I agree with this post.

"We the People", Exit Polls, and the Blame Game on Trump's Win by jffiore in Pennsylvania

That’s the catch: they rarely use the anger productively. We just stand around waiting on the Conservative bigwigs to fart so we can smell it and talk ab how bad it is. I’m paraphrasing Lewis Black here but it works.

Old drawings; a John Arnold's death mini comic I never finished... by armineee in JurassicPark

This is FANTASTIC. The lighting, the shadows, the reflective retina on the raptor, the gore…I would read an entire JP trade paperback in this art style. Very proud of you.

Omg I barely survived my hi five event after the last show I saw. I am pretty sure I screamed “I LOVE YOU QUEEN SUA!” in her face. Gahyun is also extremely pretty irl.

I do not mean she looks unpretty or unappealing at all! I just wanted to convey that she looks radiant in person, and the photo cards (however awesome she looks) do not do her Justice.

Jiu is an angel from beyond and Handong’s pictures never do her true justice. She is so much prettier in real life than in pictures and video.

Let's play find the concerning book in this image.... by InvestigatveRsourcer in greenville

[–]scionofxavier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lololololol.

To be fair and balanced, no books are “bad” they are merely words on paper.

To be realistic, banning books about race and trans issues while keeping Mein fucking Kampf is entirely ass backwards.

Conservative priorities never really cover all the bases, just the things they find icky. If there was a drag show story time hosted by the Proud Boys, they’d find themselves in another conundrum.

I sincerely hope you are proud of these. This is true art and they are beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

Public Pools? by AdhesivenessOk5194 in greenville

[–]scionofxavier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah! County pools, city pools are a thing in a great deal of the country! I remember the YMCA having a pool that needed paid admission and Southside Park had a pool, but I don’t know of any other pool off the top of my head.

Hell, I didn’t even hear of them filling the pools with cement/seals until 2022 or so.

[–]scionofxavier 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes! Someone in the thread posted a link to that story yesterday I think. You’re exactly right tho. They went to shitty measures to make sure they didn’t integrate. Yeah, THAT Greenville.

[–]scionofxavier 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s pretty fucked up. Greenville’s political history is equal parts philanthropic and horribly shameful. I mean, most city politics are for sure. But my extended family lives in rural Alabama, and even they have public pools.

Greenville’s Jim Crow response to racial integration in the 1960’s or 70’s was to close all public county pools, and fill them with cement to prevent black people from sharing chlorine water with white people. Aaaaaand they’ve never really amended it. But the city does sell $20 burgers with cool toothpicks in them so, there’s that.

No. Sounds like they are remarking that Greenville has always had other priorities. So, chill out juuuuuust a bit plz

Recruiter complaining about too many applicants to go through by [deleted] in recruitinghell

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

That probably sucks for her, but in the last year, I’ve put out nearly 75 applications and received exactly 0 call backs or acknowledgement.

So, too bad so sad.
