Conservative =/= Republican. Some of the perceptions in the US are skewed so far to the right that you don't even realise how conservative the Democratic Party is. In a lot of other countries in the world, there are like 3-4 major parties left of where Obama stood, but only like 1, maybe 2, right of him.

If we're being honest, everything Robert gets paid for could be classified as child labour sometimes

"Some More News" and "Hood Politics"

Also what these articles always fail to consider: Usually protests become violent when peaceful protests have failed. So violent protests often face something that is much harder to change/politicians are more unwilling to change. So of course they are less often successful. Not because they are less effective, but because the nature of their demands is different.

What I wanna know here is what kind of 5 year olds you talk to in your everyday life

Yeah no, the sling was considered a very very deadly weapon back then. That's the thing. And that's not what bible school would want to portray. But the sling as a weapon was pretty much the Magnum Revolver of those days.

I don't know about ancient duel rules to say whether bringing a sling was permitted. The take is more along the lines of "David wasn't an underdog. If anything, David was the clear favourite to win because of his weapon". Because a sling at the time was a highly effective and deadly weapon which was still regularly used for centuries after the supposed events of that biblical story because of its effectiveness.

We could meet in the middle and call it electromagnetic pull?

Not a cartoon, but number 1 most unhinged kids' show has to be Boohbah. Everyone involved in the making of this show has to have been on drugs constantly, that's the only explanation I can think of for why this show exists.

No, because what you are doing isn't x^{2 with x=-5. It is -x}2 with x=5.

Came to the comments to say In Time. I always have to remind myself how bad it was, because I really like the concept, so the movie tends to be much better in my head than it actually is as I keep adding things that weren't there.

For everyone who doesn't know: This is German far-right extremist politician Alexander Gauland

It is. It's pretentious as fuck.

No. There were 6 popes who hadn't been cardinals. Although it's been a few hundred years since the last one (Urban VI., elected in 1378).

Youth worker here: How much fucking work it is to just keep things from falling apart constantly. People assume most of my work is planning and doing activities with teenagers. But a lot of the time I'm like 50% caretaker.

I work with people with disabilities, this sounds exactly like they text so I feel kind of weird about this being a meme, idk

But on the other hand, if a femboy twink is attracted to femboy twinks, wouldn't he be more gay than a femboy twink attracted to bears? Because the former is attracted to people more similar to himself?

What the fuck is "Israel/US empire" supposed to be?

You would love "All Yesterdays" (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_Yesterdays)

That moment when you unlock a new reference and put it everywhere regardless of if it fits because it's new and exciting to you
