I see that the Onion is still doubling down in style.

Hello Mastodon.

I am once again looking for some fun accounts to follow from Australia and New Zealand. I am often up late and my Home Feed just dies a miserable death.

Having some people who are up at that time would be good for me.

Give me your recommendations.

Hello friends.

A gentle reminder for you.

You have been given a great tool to discern evil and evil people with almost one hundred percent accuracy.

If you see any article in praise of #Kissinger in the upcoming weeks? If you hear anyone say even a single kind word about him? If someone says his name and they are not spitting?

You know they are soulless ghoul who would prey on you and everyone you love. Who would undo your life, as a lesson to others, just to show they can.

Use this gift.

A friendly reminder that God kills fertilized embryos at an astounding rate. If abortion is run of the mill murder, let me tell you, friends, God's doing it on a Pol Pot scale.

60 to 70 percent of fertilized eggs do not make it to birth, and thankfully most women don't know they miscarry.

The cosmic joke is that if you wanted to stop the death of babies, #Alabama style, the only ethical way to do so would be to stop all sex, especially the kind that aims for reproduction.

You have to full ass life! Did you walk 1 mile, why not two, swim an extra lap, eat another salad, why just one piece, instead of the whole pie, you took a nap, try 3 naps, 2 cats isn't enough, get 20, why dress as a Clown, and scare one person, when you can do it as a job, and scare hundreds, don't just talk to yourself, say all your internal thoughts out loud, so everyone knows what you're dealing with.

Have Americans considered making lobbying a crime punishable by death or nationalizing businesses with bad practices?

It's really quite fun of the #Catholic types that, from the remotest First Nation of Canada, to Ireland, to Australia, to the gigantic continent of Africa, to every American state, North or South, you can count on them to relentlessly:

1. Discover pedophilia
2. Let it continue
3. Commit to covering up the pedophilia on a bewildering international and decades long scale, instead of anything else

Catholics love sex abuse, sure, but they love conspiracy to protect it more

A person who is willing to kill the world they are living on, or make people homeless, for $0.004 extra of dividend on their shares, is by definition not going anywhere if you start taxing them at 50%.

If they are greedy enough to carry out the most sinister of evils for so little, they are greedy enough to keep half of what they've got.

They will try to have you killed though.

Friend, are you sick and being asked to go in to work anyway? I realize this might not be the most moral thing to do, but if you're out there infecting your coworkers and would rather not?

Please, for the love of God, try to cough and breathe into the boss' or owner's office. On their things. Their phones. Pollute their rooms.

If your leadership is going to weaponize you against your peers, and you don't have a choice, make sure you take the bigguns down with you.

This is a lesson in reprisal

We are going to hit a point where AI-generated content designed to put eyes on advertisements will be consumed ever increasingly by other AIs trying to make their own advertising content, in a feedback loop that only ever speeds up.

Output of so much noise that there is never going to be findable signal again.

That's fine.

We can let go when that happens.

It's weird how, right now, yes this very second, hospitals in the West are critically failing. Even in Libertarian Paradise for profit countries.

I am glad COVID is over. I am glad we are not all somehow super susceptible to flu now and RSV by some previous illness that certainly did not gimp our immune systems.

I am glad people, you and me, let our governments become so terrified by antivax lunatics that it's just easier for them to collapse the system than take real measures.

We're great.

One of life's greatest jokes is that my parents were worried about what video games were doing to me, when they should have been much more concerned about what cable news was doing to their brains.

1. Ban, or tax into oblivion, Airbnb.
2. Nationalize those firms that are buying up all the rental units in the country.
3. Punitively fine any company that requires on site workers if it is possible for workers to be remote.
4. Writs of Outlawry on government lobbyists. We don't have to actively jail them or anything, but if we want to dismember a lobbyist in front of their kids or something it should be legal.

"Trudeau has been in power for too long and that's why we have to vote in a worse climate apocalypse that also wants to eliminate anything queerer than the missionary position."

Not a great strategy, #Canada.

No, it's not.

Most websites aren't even worth surrendeeing an email address to read an article, even if it only takes ten seconds to block them afterwards.

I am governed by slimy racist fuckwits who use secularism as a cudgel to beat down minorities. Not just minorities either, specifically the female minorities.

A woman in a hijab cannot serve at a public school cafeteria because that would be state promotion of religion.

That the school can be called Holy Name of Jesus and we pass laws to defend Christmas are somehow not promotion of religion tells you everything.

I just got told, on the streets of Montreal, that masks are communism.

I think I should probably start wearing it to bed if it overthrows my landlord.

I ask myself what is the plan for the sea level rise that's going to accompany the climate change that's coming. So fast

Do you think we have jobs and shelter and food enough for everyone along our own coasts?

We don't.

What about the situation for people from countries where they're already isn't enough in the way of jobs, food, or shelter? Do they just get shot?

Do you think you can out compete with those people in the first category?

The double standard on this.

Imagine the screams of bloody murder if America were held accountable for its war crimes because "democracy"?

Do you have any idea how many people Kissinger killed? Remember 9/11. No, not the NYC one but the one America did to Chile? Is the world allowed to carpet bomb NYC?

Ditto imagine if every time the IDF killed the innocent, if that justified vengeance against Israeli citizens because democracy? Evil.

Madness.

You know, instead of a landlord receiving a slap on the wrist for violating a tenant's rights, your politicians could right now set it up so that their property is nationalized and turned into a co-operative.

I am not saying anyone at Boeing, or one of its shareholders, would have a man greased for whistle-blowing. I am just saying that profiteering folk in the international arms trade may not exactly be all the way on the up and up.

Remember, my #Christian friends, that Americans having sex with intent of producing children kills more fertilized eggs than abortion. For every two children you bring into this world you kill at least one.

Your only ethical choice is to stop breeding. #Jesus loves you.

PatrickoftheG, 6 days ago to random

I agree with the #whitehouse on this one.

Hamas would need to kill at least 25000 more innocent Israeli women and children for there to be equivalence between what it did and what Israel did; oh, and they would need to grow Tel Aviv by about 4 times its natural population, and then starve it and thirst it for six months also. Also while eliminating all its civilian infrastructure.
