@ernest, we love you man, and we're grateful for the service you provide. But this site has needs that can't be met by one person: community mod approval, emergency status communication, spam management, and account management are just a few that immediately come to mind....

I just realized I commented in one of your crossposted posts, not here. I was just kidding around about the pizza, then I saw something else you posted...ok for real, man, have you not been eating?

IDK, maybe because cops are killing people in record numbers, which aren't included in violent crime stats?

Pat, I'd like to solve the puzzle.

Y'know, if Texas secedes, we won't have to change the flag and remove a star if we make Puerto Rico a state. Just sayin'.

Renowned climate scientist Michael Mann awarded $1 million in suit over his work being likened to child molester's acts (www.cbsnews.com)

A jury on Thursday awarded $1 million to climate scientist Michael Mann, who sued a pair of conservative writers 12 years ago after they compared his depictions of global warming to a convicted child molester....

Yeah, these aren't even jokes, more like some weirdass gross power fantasy.

“God forbid I ever go to jail. But if I do, I hope it’s in California. Soon as the judge sentences me, I’ll be like, ‘Before you sentence me, I want the court to know I identify as a woman. Send me to a woman’s jail.’ As soon I get in there, you know what I’mma be doing. ‘Give me your fruit cocktail, bitch, before I knock your motherfucking teeth out. I’m a girl, just like you, bitch. Come here and suck this girl dick I got. Don’t make me explain myself. I’m a girl.'”

I am trans, and it's hard to not take the insults personally, especially since this "edgy comedy" is coming from a comedian I used to admire and respect. What the fuck, Dave?

Related JAQing off opinion piece in The Guardian posted today: "Where are all the films about ‘whiteness’?" .

For those unfamiliar with the acronym, JAQ = "Just asking questions," a bad faith tactic pushing an absurd narrative (e.g. "movies for white people are disappearing") by pretending to ask innocent questions.

Direct quote, emphasis mine:

That’s why the final step towards true racial equality on screen is for whiteness to be cinematically named, described and dethroned from its “just human” position of cultural power. It’s time for white people to develop a cinema culture all of their own.

It's riddled with white power talking points like this. This shit is really fucked up. It is irresponsible for a well-known major news source to publish shit like this, even with the "opinion" label attached. It's basically right wing extremist (aka Nazi) recruitment propaganda.

Lol I'm in one of those screenshots. I'm flattered a mod from another instance felt they had to report me, but tbh I'm not at all surprised it was a former mod from r/startrek. Those subreddit mods were always a bit baggy, which is why I avoided that subreddit for a majority of the 15 years I was there. D-bag central.

First place I check is BTs profile to see if he’s cooled off at all. No.

I take back what I said. He's an insufferable duck.

We explicitly decided to not call out Risa by name or USS Burrito Truck.

I noticed that, and I think it was a smart, classy idea. Well, I guess they're not the reciprocating kind, so fuck'em. I'm sorry they keep harassing you, the amount of energy they're expending on you is ridiculous.

Yeah, it's just so petty. Like, following someone across the internet and harassing them over a frickin internet forum is just sad. Unhinged mostly, but also really sad. You gonna be all right, we got your back, man! Let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

😂

Female singers only want to sing about love, relationships, or breakups. They need to sing more about Godzilla, Vikings, The Grim Reaper, or making a bet with the Devil for a golden fiddle.

At this point in history there’s been a billion songs from female singers about relationships. Nearly every song revolves around that topic....

I have but perhaps I should have phrased my title better. 99% of all songs by females are about relationships stuff and I think when it’s about eccentric stuff some guy in the band wrote the song. So, a few examples here and there does not invalidate my point. Most songs by females are about relationships.

lmao you forgot to sign out of your alt account, OP
