At this point, I would be unsurprised if a third of Americans voted for an industrial meat shredder for President, even after it had been repeatedly and clearly explained they would be marched into it at gunpoint if it won. The lower part of our bell curve is… well… very, very low.

What

and I cannot emphasize this enough

the fuck

The old guard thinks (not incorrectly, I should add) that you can get way more average-and-dumber people to remember that they like you, and thus vote for you, if you do something splashy RIGHT before the election. It’s infuriatingly cynical, and it’s all for optics.

The cops, however, did not agree.

I have so many questions

Because the original concept of “ordinal world country” came out of the Cold War:

• “first world” was US/Western affiliated/allied
• “second world” was USSR affiliated/allied
• ”third world” just meant “none of the above” for a very long time

However, since then, understanding of the term in popular discourse has somewhat shifted from geopolitical affiliation to a vague amalgam of socioeconomic status/GDP/“are you a pariah state”/etc.

On a less serious note: the US is really just several dozen 3rd world countries in a trenchcoat essentially relying on (but also politically backstabbing) the economic product of like 5 or 6 states that could be first world economies in their own right

Nah. Voters are supposed to do what they’re told. They’re not supposed to have opinions.

Edit: Guys. Really. I thought the /s was quite blatant.

If it’s close, you’ll hear a snap

I intended on tying that into weight support, but I suppose that wasn’t terribly clear

Edit: context: a big part of it is weight support.

I’ve got a childhood friend who got a reduction because she had back problems after she went through puberty, and it basically led to her having chronic pain for a while in college. She’s WAY happier at a C-cup than whatever size she had before.

Edit: curious what the downvotes are for. This is absolutely a real thing. Downvoting me for sharing a thing that real people actually struggle with isn’t going to make them struggle with it less. And on the hunch that the downvotes are dudes: if you have a female partner, or a female friend who you can ask these sorts of things to, ask them to confirm that it is real, and they will be happy to.

I only want the tshirt when it’s commemorating his actual assassination

I am straight up disappointed the shooter had such crap aim. How’s that for emotional blackmail, you fucking fascists? This is literally what you wanted. You have been pushing for this openly since January 6th. You cannot convince me that you’re surprised that this happened. You’re only surprised that it came for you first.

Once again reinforcing the negative connotation of “Ohio” in zoomer slang - e.g.:

Vance got dat skibidi Ohio rizz no cap on god

Old story.

You know karma isn’t a thing in the fediverse, right? The only thing you’re doing by posting outdated articles in reaction to current events is confusing less media-literate people.

This is an old story

The appellate court is gonna reverse that immediately.

And if they don’t: I guess it was nice having an illusion of a justice system for a while.

I like how they’re “not affiliated with Trump” and also exclusively targeting Biden, and additionally that a ton of former Trump staffers work at said group now

It’s wild though, because he’d happily put them up against the wall. And he may even get to, depending on November.
