I always thought “white people eat bland food” was a stupid stereotype, or perhaps something from Mexico, Korea, Thailand, or some other place that eats hot food, and that by bland they just meant “not hot”. In my experience white people in Hawai’i didn’t really eat more or less bland food than everyone else.

Then I went to the Midwest

I just realized that this is the most logical recipe that could be created by someone who doesnt know what a ripe avocado is

Italians are so particular about their food, but then they’ll cook a hamburger, take the top off, lay both pieces on a shelf, and reheat it when someone orders the hamburger

I’m not an expert but I’m pretty sure this means doctors can hand out prescriptions for not feelin’ too great. Basically legal with extra steps. And then I think this makes it literally possible to like, do the research legally needed to for regulators to push it even lower on the list without new laws being passed

This has some significance, not a lot or anything… But liberals will try to make this mean nothing, and they might succeed or might not

These fucking Twitter liberals have spent so long arguing against leftists, that they really cannot comprehend the fact that the leftist position on Gaza is entirely mainstream, overwhelmingly popular, dominant. They are the absolute fringe, the weirdo wackos. They are Democrats who are to the right of most Republicans.

Thing is, it’s only the US that would be threatening to ban it. And if they sell, this FreedumbTok would be available in most other countries. It would create a world-class competitor overnight, exactly equivalent to their product, that would also have a gigantic competitive advantage- access to US consumers and businesses. FreedumbTok would likely eat away at TikTok in the rest of the world. They won’t sell

I might be wrong but I think their data centers are in the US and there’s not really that complicated of an algorithm, just a lot of raw data on what each user likes/watches

it’s the best social media site.

when I post about trans issues on TikTok I’ll get thousands upon thousands of likes and lots of really supportive comments. Only a couple trolls.

Post it on youtube and you get like 40 views, a bunch of dislikes, and a couple of slurs

When two people don’t have any contact, it’s not their opinion of each other that’s slowly diminishing, it’s more like their need for the other person, as well as their familiarity with each other. Reconnecting goes from very easy to somewhat hard. Conversations about life start to need more background info.

The relationship just moves down the scale from friends toward strangers, even if just slightly.

That’s true, but if this guy does this again (and he will, soon), and the daughter dies, the OP will absolutely go to jail too. For a very long time. Probably longer than if she blew the guys head off

I love how almost every one of them is like “yeah, to be honest I’m not sure what the fuck my wife is up to, she could be how would I fuckin know”

I really think the biggest part of it is that he was in the military- not only does mainstream society see them as more credible, they’re more involved in the genocide. They can’t sell it as some weird hippy guy doing something crazy. And I think it has the potential to hit Biden so much differently if the momentum of this story keeps up.

There’s actually only one kind of scenario where someone WOULD have that right over you. Luckily it’s absurd:

If you could grab a random, fully living person off the street and jam em up in your womb, and somehow make them dependent on you to survive until you can be surgically detached, you would owe them that service 100%. And if someone else forced this on the both of you, you wouldn’t owe them that. The vast majority of people would agree with this.

This is why fundamentalist Christians have to believe that God pulls down souls into fertilized zygotes. It turns conception into a form of soul-based child abduction. If you completely skip past any thought about what the fetus is, and just assume with full conviction that it’s equal to a person in every important way, then you literally arrive at the most common fundie anti abortion position… Full ban unless it’s the mother’s “fault”.

This is extremely convenient - the linchpin of their entire argument is literally magical thinking. Think of the first scenario, someone has done this to a person, they’re stuck attached, and the abductor is complaining that their right to kill the abductee and go chillax are being trampled. That’s what it sounds like to anti abortion religious fundies.

This is why they must be opposed with raw force. They can’t be reasoned out because they didn’t reason themselves in.
