by us (not in canada, but your shittier southern neighbour), it’s all beer cans.
like, bad enough you’re driving while chugging a tallboy of natty ice, but you gotta throw it in our yard on your way by, too?
i shouldn’t be surprised that the venn diagram is a circle, but for some reason i always am.
it’s cinema sins but with the “he’s an astrophysicist so he must know what he’s talking about”
when an otherwise smart guy spends his time nitpicking…movies?…he comes across as the friend you wouldn’t want to go to the movies with, no?
you can argue that the hate might be “over the top” (and i tend to agree), but that mfer comes across as straight insufferable - in that if i had a choice i wouldn’t want to be around him - so i can empathise.
edit: i’m sure there’s more, but i’m struggling to come up with any other scientist who spends their time saying “haha that ben affleck movie about oil drillers isn’t scientifically accurate!?!?” instead of, you know, positively impacting/selling their field of study.
maybe a middle ground -
he (ie trump) and his team have done the slow walk and delay for everything we’ve seen publicly regarding legal matters. everything takes so much longer than it needs to (and then it’s a problem), so perhaps years of empirical evidence leads to an educated guess.
it’s true.
i don’t have cancer, so maybe those who do should stop complaining.
i had forgotten all about Alloy and…was it Lara Croft?…and people “correcting” their appearances, good point!
i’m pretty sure the subtext of “woke” is “there are women and non-white people here”
same with “dei,” i suppose - all goes back to not liking women and poc 🙃
just to tack on come context from wikipedia -
““Cowboy” was first used in print in 1725, and was used in the British Isles from 1820 to 1850 to describe young boys who tended the family or community cows.”
not to say it might have taken on some racial connotations later (or, in fact, if we believe swift’s words literally), but i’m not sure it’s 100%.
i like how nukes and war is 5-7 and then alllllll the way down they’re like, “oh also no water damage and no normal wear and tear.”
really depends on what “dissenting views” means to you, though, doesn’t it?
i’m guessing it’s because the link was posted with no context, no opinion, no nothing.
perhaps if op explains what the link goes to and why it’s a good thing, people might click it and actually engage?
i didn’t downvote, but i do understand the sentiment!
i disagree - the word sliding can imply a passivity in things that current republican intent certainly counter-indicates.
i’m not generally pulled down slippery slopes against my will, original wording of the phrase aside.
