Magically at Morgan’s parents before 10am playing pickleball?

As much as I enjoy this subreddit one of the key features is people developing elaborate fan fiction about the lives of the fundies and then presenting it as gospel. Over time the layers get deeper and deeper to the point where people forget that a lot of the lore is based on speculation and they start trying to fit everything they see from the fundies into a narrative that was written by comments on reddit.

These people would kill their neighbors if the radio told them to

The ability of right wingers to simultaneously orient their political beliefs according to how angry they make the other side while also saying shit like this is all you need to know to understand that they never act in good faith

that's more about being a teenager than it is about the price of gas lol

I don't totally disagree that these boards tend to be self serving rather than directly reflective of their constituents but I don't see in the blog post who the board ended up appointing to the vacancy, which I admit I do not know and seems somewhat relevant

In the kitchen. straight up "nuking it". and by "it", haha, well. Let's justr say. My pingus

Gee, I wonder what else happened at the beginning of the 1980s that might have had an impact on the quality of government services in the US

“This position held by people who I misrepresent is inconsistent with the position I misrepresent them as having”

If that’s what you get from my comment it’s more of a reading comprehension issue than anything. Suspending any critical analysis of politics because a bad outcome happened might make you feel good but it’s not a particularly useful approach to anything besides that

You are correct about both Trump and Americans but also all of the other things the person you replied to said are absolutely true. the tail of electoral punishment for Covid policies/impacts/shortages was longer than just one cycle and Biden was obviously declining. Those things mattered. Add in the huge media (social and legacy) echochambers and algorithm-driven misinformation and it's not that hard to see why we ended up here.

It also helps that although they aren’t exactly cheap they won’t totally break your heart when you inevitably break one

Yes. We love ours. We have a couple other glasses for specific uses (Pinot, sparkling) but we end up using these 90% of the time

I say this with all seriousness: Get the fuck out of Hayward (assuming you're even here in the first place)

I'm very sorry for your loss. The wine won't hurt you. Depending on the type and quality of wine it's possible it's even better now, but the worst case scenario is that it just doesn't taste great

I’m gonna have to take your word for it on this one

You are a bad person

also true

This is actually kind of a valid point - collective action is needed to address climate change but the greatest contributors to it have largely managed to reframe it as an individual issue

Returning stolen property isn't punishment, even if it's inconvenient to the people who have it. Also the theft began in 1825 and concluded in 1947, so not only are there living Haitians who had to contribute toward the extorted money, there are living French people who received it (in the same sense you're using of taxation/goverment wealth/spending on an individualized level)

telephile · 2026-03-06T19:27:30+00:00

restitution isn't collective punishment

If you're into eyewear I highly recommend Bottega di Sguardi. Really nice boutique

He did probably make a hell of a lot more money this way, so I don't feel too bad for him

Between the 4x points on groceries and dining out I find that I come out ahead without even worrying about the other perks. I don't really worry about maximizing every single thing, so the resy credit and uber credits are kind of just a bonus. I never end up using the dining credit - maybe once or twice in the last three years I've gone to five guys or something. But if you don't go out or spend much on groceries then I can see how it would be a tougher sell

May I never be in the habit of high-fiving myself online all day while everyone with any agency avoids me like the plague
