Swift makes me think acceleration, and/or short-term speed. I wouldn’t call a marathon record-breaker “swift”.

First laugh all day, teared up a bit. Jesus!

My wife is always, “Your skin is so soft, like a girl!”

Thanks?

And I would be thrilled to fucking death to see more ads just like it. Touch my brain lovingly, don’t just fuck it.

The percentage of people among the general population who know the difference is about 2.5356%. I’ll allow it.

For the shooters out there, I’m all about accuracy. Sometimes precision for fun, but I just want in the general area for most cases.

Who else read that in Alex Trebek’s voice?

Got damn! Went to check my spelling and:

This is simple:

Politicians hating on illegals gets voters. For the owner class, it’s about cheap, scared labor. Works out for both parties!

Until some dumbass starts actually deporting our slave labor, oh boy.

^ And this is why liberals so goddamned always lose.

“Fascism is here, now, today. We have to fight, and that means preparing for violence because it will to that.”

“NOOAAWW! You used a BAD word! STOP!”

When the trains arrive, be aware, you’re not going to get your choice of gendered potty, probably have to shit where you stand. And stand in it. Feel free to police the language of everyone around you though!

You gotta give it to conservatives! At least their messages are on point and they stick together. Meanwhile, liberal’s squabbling about, whatever boolshit it is today…

Poe wrote a thing called The Pit and the Pendulum, which you may enjoy.

She didn’t get it wrong at all, that’s far too generous. She fucking lied as to her understanding. Now MAGA has something to repeat. FOX will pick this up, and ever so slightly work it into their talking points. They won’t outright lie, they’ll be subtle and get the meme across. I’ve seen them do this shit for 20 years!

We street urchins and the media alike have to quit giving these people the benefit of the doubt. (Not saying you did OP!)

Does anyone really think she’s stupid?! No one of substandard intelligence rises that high. Yes, her boss started at slightly lower than average, but money and a talent for self-promotion speaks loudly. And yes, attractiveness speaks loudly, but that takes real work and you’ll find stupid people mostly look stupid.

Even MTG is probably “bright normal” like me. When we bag on these people for being stupid I think we’re forgetting just how stupid average is. Allow me to rant.

I’m the guy always talking about working at Lowe’s, garden center, rocket science. Started college in honors, remedial math. Literally called MATH 1001. Hardly anyone I work with, including my customers, can do basic addition and multiplication in their head. Had to pull 150 bricks today, pallet holds 126, how many do I need to add? Oh, and a layer holds 3 x 6 bricks, how high to stack it and how many extra, if any, on top? Customer wants 30 bags of mulch, everyone starts counting as we toss it in the truck. “Just make 6 stacks of 5.” HUH? Told a dozen customers, “I’m not smart enough to keep count, I multiply.”

How many people do we think are average or lower intelligence on lemmy? But it’s 1%, if that.

And narrated Riki Tiki Tavi. Child’s cartoon my white ass. Shit was scary.

At this point Putin has no choice but to keep the war going. His economy is sliding, and has been, and all that’s propping it up is the switch to a wartime economy. Take that away and the whole house of cards collapses. So I don’t give two shits what he says about anything regarding all this. He’s stuck with no moves left.

Oh, and his population has been crashing for years. And now Russia is losing a solid chunk of healthy young men. Remember Putin creating a national holiday years ago? Everyone was to stay home and fuck. I’m not making this up. Haven’t heard about it for a long time. Anyone?

I’m better and kinder than my parents. Sorry, that’s all I got.

This is not a typical home or office printer, very specialized.

cultural differences do exist

And a great many cultures didn’t give a shit about homosexuals. The meme is about our modern culture’s misinterpretation of older cultures. And speaking of history and culture, if you think you’re being persecuted now, oh boy, you should have been gay in 80s. We’ve come a long way in a few short decades.

I’d work double and rake in the simoleans, at least for awhile. Technically, I’m not doing any more work than I was already. Even for the long term, retire in 20 vs 40?

OR, we split down and use the free time to pursue other lines of making money. “Fuck you. Your turn at Lowe’s, I’m making dog houses today.”

I can see issues with broad language, but sick leave and min wage seem like hard numbers.

And how does the governor get a say in all this? The executive’s job is to enforce, not interpret (judicial) or create (legislative) law.

I’m listening. blade runner blues @ googles email service. Hit me.

Got me thinking on this meme.

At that point I thought it was an Onion article.

“Chinese people like pork, right?! And they like coffee! See where I’m going with this?!!!”

All true! But the profits still get siphoned off elsewhere. My Lowe’s employs us locals, but the hardware store downtown doesn’t exist to provide shareholder value.

Again, you’re right. Non all non-local sellers are evil capitalists, hell bent on making us poor.
