There’s plenty of evidence that it isn’t “apocalypse-proof” in myriad other ways. I saw a post in which one got sideswiped by a Prius and it had to be towed away because the driver’s side mirror was damaged. I seriously wonder when the other shoe will drop and we find out the Boer is intentionally burning it all down.

He’s one of those kooks who drank colloidal silver and developed argyria

Prob. big into Ron Paul and chiropractic

Biden wins, there will be a different Democratic nominee in 2028. And if you want it to be someone more in line with your thinking than Biden, well you know what you gotta do in 2028.

I’d say it needs to be sooner than ‘28, more like as soon as the election is over

Yep, pocket change, and yet it will still go unpaid

I’d assumed it was because of the word “now”, as though it wasn’t always the case

I’m more comfortable around the guns I’ve seen in documentaries like Contra and Bad Dudes, with the flashing, softball-sized bullets that travel at like six inches per second

Are fully automatic AR-15s even available to the general public like that? I thought the ones civilians could buy were semiautomatic?

Venus isn’t a planet either. It’s a hell-sphere. But that makes it even more rad 🤘

We saw how well it worked to let them lose in 2016

Now I have this goddamn commercial in my head, thirty years since I last heard it. Thanks.

Absence of an inner monologue does not mean that there is no thought process. I’ve done just fine without one myself. Can’t speak to whatever is plaguing the fundamentalists apart from indoctrination and being steeped in an oppressive culture that’s been fostered over generations.

Give it a few years, they’ll be picking it up in middle school at least

My daughter has been scoring very high in math this year in fifth grade so they wanted to give her more advanced stuff to do, like moving into basic statistics. She isn’t having any of it though, she hates math and gets terrible anxiety from it. She just wants to sculpt and make puppets instead. Can’t say I blame her, I was the same way.

…yet I’d cherish a job where I’d just spend all day futzing around in R

The Onion’s TED parodies capture this dumb shit perfectly

It just dropped the canister with the Metroid hatchling

Hell yeah.

Pokémon: [day one] I wanna be the best Pokémon trainer the world has ever seen! [20 seasons later] Wow I got another gym badge! Pikachu is pretty decent!

Digimon: [day one] Oh this poor kitten, gotta save it from these big jerks! [end of season] Today, we must destroy God.

Does it matter? He announced that he isn’t running for reelection, didn’t he?

I wish the tetrahedron could bring the AV Club back to its original glory as well, though I know all its best writers are long gone

Yeah, it could be confusing, except what individual on earth has a trillion (long-form billion) dollars? It’ll happen in our lifetimes, sure, but not right now

Also, look up lakh and crore if you want to think you’re having a stroke

That Dolphin was No Angel!!!!!!!!!! Stand for are Cop’s and Kneel for are Cross!

Indeed, he could be locked up for up to 30 days, but I think Merchan wants to avoid feed this asshole’s martyr complex.

Personally I’d rather trump end up like Steve Biko than Nelson Mandela, but perhaps Merchan is far more level-headed than I am.
