Yeah, but you'll have to catch it first, right?

Yeah...I feel like the only reason to use incognito has always been "I don't want my porn to show up in my search history and this is easier than manual deletion." It'd be nice if it meant privacy, but the world doesn't run on nice. :(

According to a former classmate, DeSantis used to tell dates that he liked Thai food, but he would purposefully pronounce it as “thigh” food. Then, “if they corrected him, he would make up an excuse and leave because ‘he didn’t want a girlfriend who corrected him,’”

This is fantastic. Got a (startlingly loud, per my cat) cackle from me.

Soggy bread sounds terrible. Do they at least keep it in a bread box in the cloud?

Ridiculous. I'm only 35 and I can tell that this is obviously a Starburst with a hole punched out.

And if some of the fish happen to get killed in the process, that's just a bonus.

Then, when a coherent thought is present, you end up with the scribblob being what comes out of the mouth instead.

I don't know why, but "what do next" is my favorite part of this.

Why waste the resources sending perfectly good stew meat into the sun?

Worst case scenario, they feed the pigs.

Being from a "soda" location, this conversation makes my brain do a double take.

Florida, taking tips from South Park?

It's no wonder South Park isn't as good as it used to be; the real world is too ridiculous.

That response loses you another point. Should've threatened to bring in the cavalry!

"You will acknowledge me, right this instant."

So many cute kitties. It looks like the standing one may be about to sit on/in between the two laying down and have a cuddle puddle.

"He's so hot; I'd totally let him off me!"

I remember being appalled at the people saying this stuff about Chris Brown (that they'd be happy to let him beat them) after he attacked Rhianna. Gross.

Edited for grammar.

Short answer is that it is always much easier to (successfully) sue a private party than a government entity. Also probably to deter the private companies from participating in human trafficking.

Yep, exactly. Those of us who prove their talking point of "Israel represents all Jews" wrong are inconvenient for them.

If supporting genocide is what it takes to not be an enemy of Israel, then yeah - I guess this Jew is an enemy of the Jewish state. 🙄 Gotta say, I'm not offended. I'd much rather be an enemy of genocide.

This is a theoretical moral quandary I've tried to determine for myself and have yet to figure out:

How long is "long enough" between when one group forces another group out of its land and when the invading group should/can be accepted as the "rightful" group for that area?

I often point out that some Palestinian people who were forced out of their homes in the creation of Israel are still alive as reasoning for why it's not right to have Israel exist where it is, so I know that "within a lifetime" is too short. At the same time, I also know that thousands of years (i.e. Israelite homeland) is too long to reclaim land, so I've narrowed it down (if you can call it that) to "more than a lifetime, less than a few millennia."

What about a couple hundred years? Is it when everyone who originally lived on the land has grown old and died? When their children have? Grandchildren?

So much of human history is violence resulting in displacement. I feel like the line has historically been drawn at "when the original group is either wiped out or too weak to say anything anymore," which is not the moral line for which I'm looking.

I'd be really interested to see what anyone else thinks on this.

Right? I want my 65¢
