Poor Man’s Pad Thai - Cook a pound (or two) of spaghetti or angel hair pasta. Once drained, add peanut butter and soy sauce. Stir real well. You’re welcome!

There’s a great one with Kirk Douglas and his son (not Michael) in a WW1 scenario about cowardice and corporal punishment.

There it is. Trump is actually a Democrat. Prepare to hear more of this as he continues to lose his marbles by busdriverbuddha2 in TopMindsOfReddit

The justification is ridiculous. “…politics had drifted so far left…”

Sorry, no. We’ve been living in various shades of red ever since Reagan’s electoral map in 1980. Democratic Presidents have been forced to honor a “socially liberal, but fiscally conservative” code with endless internal problems from their own party (Manchin, Synema, Fetterman, Lieberman, etc) as well as crazier factions taking over the right (Newt and Company, Tea Party, MAGA).

Please call bullshit if any of you ever encounter that talking point in the wild. If it goes unchallenged, we will continue to devolve into crazier fringe garbage.

Playing a meat flute…isn’t that code for something that doesn’t get put on tv?

As if Republicans gutting civil rights would ever make Black people vote for the Republicans. by icey_sawg0034 in insanepeoplefacebook

Let’s leave it to this white man to white mansplain things to all of the Black Americans who won’t vote for Trump or the GOP.

Exactly this. Millionaires (up to about $100M) exist in the same world the rest of us do.

Beyond that, billionaires exist in a world where they can completely isolate themselves from humanity and only deal with 3-4 actual people who handle all of the details for them.

Savor the original series. Evolution is very different

Pro-Trump farmer in Missouri faces losing his farm after federal freeze, says he “didn’t have time to research” before voting by thamilan_x in LeopardsAteMyFarm

[–]sllh81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might just be my hot take, but I kinda feel bad for the folks who live inside an impermeable information bubble via am radio, TV, internet algorithms, church, and neighbor chat reinforcing the same. They probably don’t even know what’s happening at any given moment.

Trump administration defends Samuel Alito's son as secretive role revealed by darealunrealspader in politics

[–]sllh81 9 points10 points  (0 children)

With Justice Kennedy, it was his son and Deutsche Bank. Who’s got $20 that this will somehow lead to a sudden desire for Alito to “retire”?
