We owe so much of our daily lives to gay furries. The chuds may make laughable threats, but it’s a dozen gay furries that literally keep our entire infrastructure online.

I looked it up and it turns out there were zero book related deaths in 2023 and so far none in 2024 so, I don’t know, books may not be the problem.

What? No it wasn't. A bunch of people warned about exactly this, before it happened, and then AS IT WAS HAPPENING. People just… kept pretending that the dude who conned them hadn't conned them and was, in fact, a super genius, instead of taking the fucking L and holding him anything like accountable

No, you're absolutely correct. 98 degrees can't be a "heatwave" if it's 98 degrees all summer long. That's just....what it is then. It's like the "hold times are unusually long due to high call volume" of temperature.

It's wild how many Americans think they can just pick up and leave when you basically have to be INCREDIBLY wealthy and/or have a specialized skill for another country to take you. People really have no concept of how much the rest of the world fucking hates us.

If you're truly a good, honest, ethical, fair and transparently paying employer you have literally nothing to fear from your workers unionizing. In fact, you should WELCOME IT. It can only make your workplace better, your workers more happy, and give you better legitimacy as a company.

This is also a nice reminder that when conservatives say, "Judeo-Christian" they mean "Christian," because you know nobody at Project 2025, including the person who wrote "Judeo-Christian" below, means anything but Sunday when they talk about deciding what people can & should do on the Sabbath.
