I'd watch it

My sister is highly educated, and started her career doing medical research and got in to crime scene investigation. She ultimately left when she discovered the job she wanted working for the FBI was not nearly scientifically rigorous enough and didn't really hold water scientifically.

She now sees a psychic, is entirely convinced it's real, and eats up and parrots every single Republican talking point. Biden too old and dimented, Trump is literally the greatest man alive with decades to live. She even accused our mother of cognitive decline when she didn't buy the bullshit my sister was spewing. My mother is sharp as a tack and there's no family history of dementia.

On top of this, my sister's idiot husband ~~is~~ was an executive in charge of international sales and literally lost his job because of the orange man. Still, God's gift to the US in their eyes.

We don't talk anymore but I'm curious how they feel now, they also suckled on Musk's taint.

Their ideology started with money. They only cared about taxes. Now they agree with anything anyone says as long as they start with lowering their, already generously low, tax rate.

If you use it enough times the probability of obtaining your original gender again is pretty good.

24 of 25 cities listed are in the South. And the outlier is fucking Gary Indiana

Interesting

A: that's not really ever been demonstrated to be true for any level of crime. Least of all corruption. The type of people willing to take bribes think they'll get away with it or don't consider the consequences.
2: they have that incentive now. Without term limits. That's a problem we currently face. Term limits won't change that.

We need to also bar representatives from taking those jobs when they leave office. Which means we also need to give them a pension.

Fun fact, that's the origin of the word.

Because it's 4chan. And there are no women on the Internet on 4chan

My friend, my brother, my fellow lemming.

Using a /s is understandable here, but sadly completely undercuts an otherwise wonderful bit of satire.

Reading this I went through stages of fear and wonder.

"This is satire, it has to be right? Wait no this sounds exactly the right kind of idiotic. Oh god did the boomers penetrate Lemmy?? Oh fuck does this moron think Trump reads the comments??? Oh god no this has to be fake it must b- oh."

I used to work in a downtown neighborhood, and parked several blocks from my building. I was nearly hit by a car on 5 or 6 separate occasions walking between my building and my car.

One time I was walking back to my car in the dark, i had to cross several streets to do so. This was a one way road and cars would only come from behind me. Unfortunately on the other side of the street from me was a black guy walking the same path. At every crossing I checked over my shoulder for a car, and I'm 1000000% sure the poor guy thought I was watching him. That was 20 years ago and I STILL feel bad about that. I just really didn't want to get hit by a car.
