Ugh. I hate that smug spiteful loud bitch.

Lighten up or fuck off

Only law enforcement can enforce the trespass. But you are trespassed when informed by a person with authority over the property that your presence is not welcome there. If they fail to leave, you can follow up in the courts.

Ah, yeah, that adds up. The strip club and everything.

Obviously the joke of the meme itself is that video games are a lot of things to a lot of people, many of them quite wholesome. It's not just tits and masculine power fantasies. But if you stick someone who already leans toward that way of thinking in front of a screen and make them play GTA... yea, that's gonna be a deep hole to dig out of. Maybe she has seen the memes and come around to the idea that there are other sorts of stories in gaming. Probably not, but maybe.

I don't know if I have just forgotten or never actually knew, but what is she actually reacting to in the original video that she dislikes exactly?

Bread requires a number of other tools, cooking techniques and inventions to come around before it makes sense that it was invented. It has definitely been around a long long time, but many inventions predate homosapien, and I doubt bread predates agriculture by much if at all.

What is interesting though is that what likely coincided with the invention of bread was the invention of beer. They're a pretty small hop away from one another.

If anyone in the administration is definitely a Nazi, it is Miller. It's not even a question. He absolutely lives to victimize minorities and stir up white fear. The whole CRT thing, DEI, all of these anti-"woke" talking points... all his playbook. He is a vile excuse for a human being, the hateful piece of shit.

If this were a movie set in the South in the mid 1800s, he would be the slimiest pettiest most unnecessarily violent whip cracker on the plantation that would have the entire theater cheering when he finally got what was coming to him. And he is making policy in the highest office in the country. Unfortunately, this shit isnt a movie. There is no guarantee that things work out. But, maybe, we will get to cheer someday, and sooner rather than later, I hope.

What part of Hamas is evil and shouldn't be tolerated did you not understand or ignore. Their actions are inexcusable as is their goals for Isreal. I do not want the Isreali people nor the Palestinian people to be killed or live in fear. Peace should be the goal. I do understand that that is far easier said than done and Isreali lives are under constant threat too, to some degree.

But no amount of evil from Hamas excuses the evil of Netanyahu's genocide either. They are acting with callus disregard for human life, with violent fervor that mows everything down in their wake, even if their stated goal is 100 percent justified. We also cannot forget that there is plenty of prejudice and bigotry on both sides, and that plays no small part in the actions taken by many soldiers. There are no winners here, no good guys. There are just victims and victimizers. Stop pretending that a massacre is righteous. It is not.

Huh, funny. Becuase 2 million Palestinians live in the Gaza strip, 50,000 already dead by the Isreali offensive and Isreal's government wants to completely wipe them all out or, at minimum, ethnically cleanse the area. So what does that make the Isreali government then?

Hamas are violent terrorists whose goals are evil. They should not be tolerated. But even by Isreal's estimates, btw, Hamas has around 16-18,000 soldiers now, and had between 20-30,000 before the offensive started in 2023. So, AT MINIMUM 36,000 civilians or those unassociated with Hamas have been killed. They're not killing Hamas. They're killing everything in their way. That's murder, not defense. That's genocide, not war.

Asked in the interview whether U.S. citizens and noncitizens alike deserve due process as laid out in the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution, Trump was noncommittal.

“I don’t know. I’m not, I’m not a lawyer. I don’t know,” Trump said when pressed by Welker.

Do you need to be a lawyer to be aware of the Bill of Rights? He's been President for more than 4 total years, head of the executive branch charged with executing the law for the entire country, has a whole staff of lawyers advising him, and has, himself, pled the 5th (!) and he's still not even familiar with the 5th amendment?

Close up off monstrous, horrifying, dangerous gravity dragon... pull back and back and back, and realize it was 1000x magnified. It's magnificent roar a barely audible squeak.

“I represent the base and when I’m frustrated and upset over the direction of things, you better be clear, the base is not happy,”

Such a conceited statement. But probably accurate. They are all sharing like 3 braincells, her and her entire electorate.

Honestly, if you're gonna dedicate your life to being an absolutely hateful piece of shit, take some pride, hone your craft. A good racist should be able to at least be able to get the highlights of your 23 and me profile right. The best car guys can call out the make, model, year, and trim package from a revving engine. I want to see a racist hear a foreign accent and exclaim "Oh! That's an '81 Vietnamese-Laotian bisexual... nope wait... pansexual! ... Gettem boys!"

Bit of pineapple...

Fucking Greg Gutfeld on Fox News then reiterated and reinforced exactly what the interviewer said, that the letters and numbers were added as an interpretation of the meaning of the symbols, BUT then claimed that the interviewer said that the entire tattoo was faked in photoshop (not just the annotation) and that Trump was correcting him. Such a blatant bold faced lie that literally anyone who watched the interview would know. How the fuck do these asshats keep getting away with that shit?

Did you watch the whole interview or read it? There is no mistake. He thinks that on his knuckles was "M S 1 3" in Arial font in real life. The interviewer tried to give him the out, said that the tattoo could be interpreted that way, and then tried to move on. But Trump doubled down multiple times and said that there is no interpretation. That the literal letters and numbers were tattooed on him. So, there is no ambiguity to what Trump is insisting is true. You can question whether he is actually stupid enough to believe that (he is), or just thinks that his followers and the media are stupid enough to believe it (he does), but there is no longer any question as to whether Trump is claiming that the literal letters are tattooed on him. He said so unequivocally.

The idea is that theories have considerable evidence and are consistent with all testing done up to that point. (Warning: I AM NOT SUGGESTING THE FOLLOWING IS TRUE. IT IS A HYPOTHETICAL ONLY) But what if we found out tomorrow that if you put bacteria in an environment with a specific magnetic field, they no longer caused disease and they end up finding out that bacteria poop has magnetize structures of the cell and cause diseases. That antibiotics have the magnetized structures with the opposite polarity that counteract the bacteria poop. Or some shit like that. This would contradict our current understanding of germ theory and it would be proven to be wrong or at least incomplete.

That is why theories are not "proven" because they are ALWAYS open to better explanation if one can be provided. That being said, it is highly unlikely that any well established, defined and tested theory will ever be "disproven" wholecloth, becuase it has always been consistent with observations. Germs are real, disease is clearly related to them in some way, specific germs cause specific reactions in our bodies, etc. But we could always be partially wrong about something, or have an incomplete explanation.

EDIT: for you people down voting, you know you are defending the conclusions of science while misunderstanding the very nature of the scientific method. Science is not dogma. It is a method of continuous improvement. If evidence contradicts current understanding, science learns from it and adapts accordingly. That is what makes Science trustworthy, it does not put conclusion before the evidence. Don't make that same mistake.

You can also just expose someone to a pathogen and predict the outcome based on the pathogen. Like the doctor who proved that Helicobacter pylori causes stomach ulcers and cancer by taking a shot of broth laced with the bacteria and, predictably, got stomach ulcers, which he successfully treated with antibiotics.

Ok, so yes, more ultra rich may pay a little more tax than they would with income tax. But, the much more important part here, the poorest people will ALSO pay more in taxes, money that they do not have to spare. That is what makes it regressive.

There is literally no way to put a flat tax on goods without it disproportionately effecting poorer people unless it is exclusively on luxury goods they are not buying
