Got stuck playing Earthworm Jim when I was a kid. Literally fell in a hole and couldn’t figure out how to get him outta there. Turned it off and never went back

Won’t someone rid me of this troublesome candidate?
am I doing it right, JD? Or should I say that drumpf is going to eat your pet?
Because the NRA and republicans, silly billy. Can’t let any sort of gun regulation pass, gotta get those corporate kickbacks from weapons manufacturers somehow!
Well it was only for a day, they thought they could intimidate me out of supporting the candidate I preferred. They are not perfect, but I still value a relationship with them 🤷♂️
I’ve been dealing with this for a while now. Family kicked me out of the house for supporting Bernie Sanders at one point. It sucks, because I love them very much, but they’re Racist with a capital R and die-hard republicans who worship drumpf. Every time we talked they would bait me with their BS, and even when we’re NOT talking about politics, it seems every gap in conversation is punctuated with all the vile things they’re trying not to say.
My therapist had some great advice. Said that if I value a relationship with them, then the price for having that relationship is never discussing politics.
I’m willing to pay that price, so I told them not to bring it up anymore, and I’ll do the same. It’s working for the most part, though that doesn’t stop other issues from coming up. But hey, that’s life! Wouldn’t be relatives if they didn’t frustrate you endlessly, I guess?
What’s the tattoo? I’m glad you were able to yeet that fucker out of ya 😅
Nobody but republicans are voting for genocide. Everyone with a conscious and brain are voting for the lesser of two evils because that’s the only choice we have. You’re inflammatory BS does nothing but make you seem more fringe, less thoughtful, and therefore easier to ignore.
This was posted to Lemmy yesterday, I watched it, and it’s relevance just keeps relevancing!
Why does it need to be equal to population?
Because I was responding to the previous commenter that cited specifically those numbers.
I get what you’re saying, that other cultures are not as tolerant, and when said culture pops up in a previously tolerant area, it can cause tensions. To that I’d say that we have a system of government enforcing laws in a uniform manner across a region precisely because not everyone agrees uniformly. You can’t strip away the freedom to be wrong, you can only enforce rules that support equity, safety, and inclusion, and do so especially within local populations that seem to eschew it.
But also, not all migrants are intolerant. So assuming that they 1. are, and 2. will stay that way, is a xenophobic dog whistle.
Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 election was not due to any erosion in support for Donald Trump. Rather, not only did Trump’s raw vote total increase, but in the key states of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan, Trump’s share of the vote actually increased.
Still mind-boggling and a source of great personal disgust while being a national disgrace. One can only hope that enough people have soured on him since then, after countless displays of racism, xenophobia, sexism, authoritarianism, bigotry, and incompetence. A twice impeached loser felon grifter that’s clearly a russian asset should not stand a chance, yet here we are. Makes me sad.
Between the people trying to give you healthcare and secure your job, and the people trying to let your miscarrying wife bleed out in the parking lot of a for-profit hospital, some morons prefer the latter. Why? “because he’s racist like me!” seems to be the deciding factor. Yes, that is why my parents are voting for him. and my mom is a poll-worker 🤦♂️
It’s really a terrible place to live if you’re not rich and white.
No, you’re thinking of the Flaming Lips.
Rage Against the Machine is about exceedingly long carpentry nails.
I miss when conservatives tried to conserve things like national parks (i.e. Teddy Roosevelt) instead of using conservatism as a mask for racism.
It’s like, it seems appropriate for a two party system to have one party push for progress, while the other advises caution. But they dropped the euphemism and have been just blatantly racist/xenophobic/anti-other for far too long to pretend now that conservatism is anything else.
lmao that dude is leaving nothing but debt and shame
are European countries regularly taking in migrant populations equal to their countries population?
my bong has a bunch of crevices/nooks that get gunked up with resin n’ such. Put in some salt, a healthy splash of alcohol, and shake it up! you’ll be surprised how much that gets.
It’s hard, because the media is rightfully pointing a spotlight at her saying “wow, look at this racist dirtbag who’s in drumpfs inner circle! This shit is disqualifying!” and then alt-right dicktater-lovers see that and say “that’s our girl!”
It’s like… you can’t fault the news for bringing attention to the appalling behavior of people in positions of power/influence. It’s just that all the racists are mask-off now and drumpf is appealing directly to them, as opposed to trying to reach any moderate voter.
Fortunately it seems that most alt-right racist opportunists only ever get a glimpse of success, as their base is one that is forever moving goalposts, and will eat their own at the slightest hint that they’re not as racist as them. They burn brightly, and then fade away with their reputations forever stained, only ever gaining employment through attempts to re-validate their xenophobic/hateful credentials. It’s a pitiful excuse for a life.
nose job, cheek fillers, botox, all before 30? yup. looks weird.
For a bit of non-traditional men’s fashion, I want a a cape/cloak made of nice cotton, one that is swooping with clean lines. You can wrap it around you for a bit of warmth on a brisk day, or let it hang open for a breeze.
You can have informal, casual ones for out and about, or formal ones that have a rigid collar and can be affixed in front like a traditional jacket.
They’re comfy, protect your skin from sun damage, can be worn in layers, and if you’re in a pinch for tourniquet cloth, plenty of fabric!
This past Saturday I drove 9 hours (one way) to confront and yell at the family rapist.
Had him and the rest of my family texting and calling frantically, telling me not to. That I was destroying the family, that I’d never see my cousins again, that I’d be arrested, that there would be a sheriffs deputy waiting to take me to jail if I showed up at the pedophiles house.
But on the way up I just happened to listen to an NPR story about the murders in Castle Rock Colorado and how police refused to enforce a restraining order that resulted in the murder of three children, and then the subsequent trial that ended up with the supreme court saying that “cops have no duty to enforce a restraining order.” and then the story of Joe Lozito, the subway hero who sued the police dept. for failing to protect him and his fellow passengers from a knife-wielding spree killer they were on that train, specifically to look for. That case resulted in the supreme court saying that “the police have no duty to protect you.”
So with that information, I decided that it was unlikely that 1. a pedophile rapist would call the police for help because his victim was coming to yell at him, and 2. that a cop, even if called, would show up at all.
I yelled at that bitch while he sat in his mansion for 20 minutes at the top of my lungs. His new neighbors must have some thoughts 😊
