Who told you that? No one told you that! That isn’t true at all! Ha ha! Ha ha! How funny! Would you like a treat to reward you for being funny? Ha ha! Come into this corn maze! I will show you a funny thing! Yes. So funny. So good.
Come. Into the corn.
It’s…very subtle…but I think this might be a trap.
31-year-old Mohammad Robinson died in Las Vegas Saturday night. All witnesses said that the Black man didn’t hear the woman asking to hold the door for her while entering McDonald’s. She got upset and told
her male companion
about the incident. The man waited for Robinson outside the restaurant and shot him down like a dog. His killer remains at large, but police say the shooting was caught on surveillance cameras which they will try to use to identify him.
“It’s horrible. I want my dad back and you took him away from me!” said the murder victim’s daughter, Miniya Sampson.
Robinson is survived by his mother, a girlfriend, four children, and two step-children. His youngest daughter is just three months old and is suffering from a blood sepsis infection.
This murder only highlights the situation in America –
black lives clearly don’t matter very much to their fellow citizens.
The family started a GoFund me page to cover funeral costs:
i only heard about this 2 months ago. its been 3 years????
Remember this started because Snyder switched Flint from a freshwater mountain lake to the polluted Flint River simply to allow his wife’s company to use the lake for bottling instead. This is a manufactured crisis of corruption and capitalism.
Also remember that the pipes corroded because they refused to pay for the chemical used to make the water less acidic.
Remember that when the first E. coli outbreak from the water popped up, the city hall was given water coolers by the state, free of charge, all while denying that the water could be unsafe to drink.
Remember that, despite having a huge budget surplus and a “rainy day fund,” set aside that could easily cover the cost of relocating the residents by buying their houses/paying their debt, or could cover a large chunk of the cost of replacing the pipes, the state has decided to continue to only put in the minimal amount of effort.
Remember that flint is majority POC, majority impoverished, and is still being faced with crippling water bills from the Detroit water supply company, where they are often charged $50 a month just to use the service, on top of the cost of their water bill.
Remember that there will now be an entire generation of children who will now be damaged by lead poisoning and damage from the multitude of neurotoxins.
Remember that this is what privatized natural resources looks like. Remember that these people are being punished for having the audacity to dare to be poor in an economy that won’t let them be anything but.
At every level, this has not been a mistake.
The State and City are most upset that people know its happening and are resisting nation-wide.
But if we lose focus they lose even the small amount of aid they’ve managed to get.
This is how they do it. It’s a siege on the public empathy. Eventually we become numb to the problem and despair. Or something bigger happens.
Retro Game Room Version 2
I needed to patch the walls and paint, so I thought I might as well change it all up.
23 different consoles and handhelds, about 450 old games. Framemeister xrgb-mini upscaler so it doesn’t look bad on a new tv, handmade custom MAME cabinet, and a fuzzy chair and fuzzy carpet :)
A lot of work, and a lifetime of collecting!
And no girlfriend
In an incredible plot twist, I’m actually someone’s wife.
So here’s some holy-shit-don’t-ever-do-this advice for the day.
Now I’ve written a fair bit about why this is a shit-tastic idea but there’s a section that really takes the taco and puts this well into “what the fuck were you thinking?” territory:
This. This right fucking here is one of the things that drives me up the wall when it comes to dating advice for men: the idea that women shit-test guys.
OK, first of all: no. No they don’t. A woman who’s ignoring you waving your hand in front of her face (yes, he tells you to do this) isn’t testing you to see if “you’re strong enough to be her man”, she doesn’t want to fucking talk to you.
Second of all: Yes, I know that there is the odd statistical anomaly out there who actually does shit-test guys. I’ve met one or two. However, there’re two relevant facts in play here. The first is that the odds of your running into a woman who does want you to push past her no is so remote that they don’t make numbers small enough to represent it.
The other is that mind games are bullshit and you shouldn’t be rewarding them with your time and attention. And more to the point: why in pluperfect hell would you want to fuck them?? Trust me: ain’t nobody in the world so good in bed to put up with that level of assholery.
If, in your travels, you come across this fantastical beast (you won’t) and she wants you to try harder after the initial rejection (she doesn’t), then give them a hard pass. You have far better uses for your time up to and including reorganizing your Pokemon by color. If she really wanted you to try harder to impress her, then she can damn well use her words and say so.
The myth of women shit-testing guys is just an excuse for guys to ignore a “no”, “I’m not interested” and “go away”. It’s teaching that a “no” is really a “yes” if you try hard enough and holy shit that’s an insanely bad thing to teach.
So, yeah. Fuck that noise.
Here’s some other great responses to this article:
Speaking at a rally in Wilmington, North Carolina on Tuesday, Donald Trump made an offhand comment that “Second Amendment people” might have some unspecified way to stop a President Hillary Clinton’s judges from abolishing gun rights.
“Hillary wants to abolish, essentially abolish the Second Amendment,” Trump said. “By the way, and if she gets to pick — if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don’t know.”
Trump’s remarks are a bit garbled, but they appear to be a joke that gun owners could use their weaponry to prevent the government from rolling back their gun rights.
Yes, this really happened.
This was literally today in my town . Disgosteng
remember when sarah palin released a list of democratic senators to challenge and literally put target crosshairs on the names after years of glenn beck et al crying that ‘someone’ should do ‘something’ and gabby giffords was on the list and then someone who watched a lot of glenn beck came to a gabby giffords rally and shot her in the head, along with eighteen other people, killing six, and then when they asked sarah palin if she felt responsible she said no
anyways this is that, trump literally advocating for domestic terrorism, just softly enough that his followers can hear him but he can also try to deny it if anything does happen
