Capitalism is when a publicly owned museum displays priceless artwork at minimal/no cost to the public rather than limiting access to only an elite few
Megyn Kelly: Can a man become a woman?
Trump: Ummmmmmmmm .....
Defend this crap! I dare you! We are about to find out who all the frauds are on the right. This is indefensible.
If Bugs Bunny drops an iron anvil from the top of a building into a pool of liquid mercury the anvil will fall through the surrounding medium of less dense air but will float in the liquid mercury bc mercury has a density nearly twice that of iron.
“Gravity” is retarded.

piece that calls out indifference to the lives of Palestinian civilians.
just saw a clip of sneako where he asks a woman to name three countries, she says “Paris, Israel, and Spain” and he says “you got 1 out of 3”
Beautiful.
Breaking: there are many more "exceptional" students than there are spots at elite universities. Upper middle class WASPs convinced this is a sign of oppression.
Really sucks that with weed you either have to choose to smoke it (not great on the lungs) or commit to a like multi-hour high that starts in 90 minutes
People talk about “secret menus” at fast food places, but I would never in a million years ever order a “secret menu” item because if the cashier looked at me and said “huh?” I would die on the spot
What’s the deal with all the holocaust revisionism from… pro israel people?
Hitler wasn’t going to kill the Jews until the Arabs told him to??? Unlike Hamas, Nazis actually felt really, really bad about killing Jews??? What are we doing here?
There’s a really good reason why pretty much every other sport has rules against steroid use.
The regs are imperfect of course, but you don’t see “soccer player dies of heart attack at 30” every other month
That song that goes “Hello my baby, hello my honey, hello my ragtime gal” was in part making fun of the newfangled slang “hello” which only entered popular use as a general greeting with the widespread adoption of the telephone
There’s so many levels to this.
(1) Hamas was elected by a plurality, not a majority
(2) The last election was in 2006. 50% of Gazans are under 18. Do the math.
(3) All this aside, targeting civilians would still be evil.
Fact check: the majority of Palestinian people in Gaza elected Hamas, which ran on a kill-all-the-Jews platform; and it remains widely popular in Gaza.
Black fathers are often portrayed as absent or distant, but that isn’t what most people experience, according to both data and Black dads themselves. Such biased portrayals are often based on who is telling the story.
She really got to the fundamental contradiction in the “alpha male” ethos and just nailed him to the wall on it
they love to talk up discipline, mastery of the self etc as masculine virtues but the whole allure of the ideology is to justify power and hedonism — lack of restraint
locks like this piss me off so much
why are you pretending there are 10 possibilities for each digit in the passcode
just label the buttons 1-5 and stop LYING to me
A problem from my 12yo’s math.
We are firmly past what 99% of adults ever need to know and clearly into abstract reasoning development.
Most people should stop math education in middle school. They know enough and further math instruction is a waste of time and frustrating.
This song about class struggle by

, a working class Virginian has gone viral overnight with millions of views from ordinary Americans.
The masses are far ahead of the current right wing and leftist grifter ideologists who benefit from dividing the people!
it’s really difficult to conceive of how just fucking stupid the debt ceiling is. every few years we have to do this little “starve the poor or we’ll crash the entire global economy” dance.
real clown country shit.
you cannot convince me there is a single person that genuinely internalizes “cisgender” as a slur
would you prefer “not trans”? kinda clunky. if only there were an antonym for “trans”…
every time this discourse crops up I’m sort of fascinated by the tension between “socialism can only be accomplished through violent revolution” and “veterans are not welcome in our movement”
There is a generation of young men who have grown up believing that a suit and a glass of whiskey will make you look cool and someone desperately needs to inform them that that isn’t always true.
This person is a fucking statistician. Someone who works with numbers, especially quantified in weird ways. Can’t count cubes in a logic puzzle. We’re fucked.
It’s pretty funny how these folks always talk about how men aren’t real men anymore but the image of a “real man” they have in their head is one that eats like a child
It’s honestly incredibly sad to feel you have to recast cuddling with your cat as this actually very masculine and domineering thing.
It’s ok to just admit that feeling/giving affection feels nice. You still get to be a man.
Alabama is seeking to become the first 🇺🇸 US state to carry out an execution by nitrogen hypoxia, where a person dies by breathing only nitrogen, with the state's attorney general wanting an execution date for death row inmate Kenneth Smith.

Killing Snoke ruled, they were not “forced” to bring back Palpatine (TLJ clearly set Kylo Ren up to be a tragic villain) and calling that fight scene “poorly choreographed” is just silly.
I didn't realize killing off the main villain and forcing the last entry of a trilogy to backtrack and bring back a previous villain, and then following it with a poorly choreographed fight in which a knife was digitally removed mid-shot was considered "good filmmaking".
He's going to end up worse off for it, but this is pro-social behavior. Would love to see the criminal history of the scammer, guessing this isn't much of a loss for society.
This is a really good example of “well some people have preferences and you have to respect that” is just wholly inadequate.
Like, no, you are a bad person for your preferences and I will judge you for them
there’s something about seeing the fascist veneration of an imagined past being applied to the literal 1990s that draws into stark relief how absurd and intellectually barren it is
Any zoomer who thinks right pic is above average attractive doesn't understand that in the 90s, a "7" looked like left pic.
"Above average" meant something else back then. There'd be like ten girls
as or more beautiful than Connelly working at every chain restaurant.
I will die on the hill that punctuation that is part of the sentence containing the quote not the quote itself should go outside the quotation marks.
I know this is against every style guide in the world, but I will be the change I want to see in the world god damnit
The government: hey if u wanna minimize your risk of cancer, probably best to only drink occasionally. you do you though.
