If we can explain to the morons that a tarriff is a tax, we might get somewhere. I seem to recall us being upset about taxes on “hemp” and “British coffee,” or something.

Gaslighting spotted

Well, it’s nice to know that it didn’t originate here. We certainly used it that way.

FYI, the phrase is “Toe the line.” As in: “Git your toes on that line in the dirt/sand, (insert perjorative here)” Just another reminder of our slaver past

After watching a deep dive into the Micheal Bay movies I’m not certain I would even trust Best First.

Every time I hear about Ocala, FL I remember the time that a Florida judge tossed their case suing Lexington, KY. Someone down there copywrited or trademarked “The Thoroubred Capital of The World,” in the early '00s and then tried to sue Lexington, KY for the title. Your own judge basically told the plaintiff, not just no, fuck no.

California is paying full SNAP benefits starting this morning. California cares. Trump, Mike Johnson, and The entire GOP couldn’t give less fucks about anyone else.

Is that the bitch that has gotten off scot free with literally hundreds of DUIs?

I don’t, but you do constantly.

Thanks for the idea!

I mean linguistically, yes. In practice I think the terms are reversed or possibly just an incorrect descriptor.

Not sure that’s a good idea. The cops will label it biological weaponry assisted terrorism or some shit.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Hooker

The widespread belief that the slang term “hooker,” referring to a prostitute, originates from General Hooker’s surname due to illicit gatherings and insufficient military discipline at his headquarters near the Murder Bay district of Washington, DC, has persisted in popular culture.[26] Certain iterations of this legend suggest that the contingent of prostitutes who followed his division were pejoratively labeled as “General Hooker’s Army” or “Hooker’s Brigade.”[27] Nevertheless, historical evidence demonstrates that the term “hooker” appeared in published sources as early as 1845, predating General Hooker’s rise to public prominence.[28] Linguistic and historical scholarship instead points to the term’s likely derivation from the significant population of prostitutes in the Corlear’s Hook area of Manhattan during the early to mid-19th century, where the appellation “hooker” became commonplace.[29] While the enduring association between the general’s name and the term may have contributed to its broader popularization,[30] contemporary evidence indicates that an area in Washington, DC known for prostitution during the Civil War was colloquially identified as “Hooker’s Division”—a label later abbreviated to “The Division” during General Hooker’s tenure in the city following the First Battle of Bull Run, where he was tasked with defending the capital.[31] Consequently, the link between the term and General Hooker, though culturally persistent, is undermined by substantial historical documentation that favors alternative etymologies.

What’s the reverse of hemophilia? I clot IV needles. They won’t let me give blood anymore because I clot the needle so fast they’ve never gotten more than a cup or so.

Edit: I’m O+ so a half universal donor, so I would wager that they wouldn’t normally turn me away.

General Hooker was an American general during The Civil War.

He can’t have that title.

According to SCOTUS cops are professional liars

Voting against their own interests sure is something.

You’ve been doing it your whole life according to the shit that comes out of your account, but that’s not surprising for a lead poisoned boomer.

He hasn’t achieved those dreams at all with Tesla, or any other company that he actually runs. Over a million unsold cybertrucks. No actual autopilot that works. The cybertruck is 17 times more flammable than a Ford Pinto.

Elon Musk is an average intelligence fascist scam artist that happened to have a golden spoon in his mouth from day one.

Maybe challenge the SCOTUS decision to call the election that was blatantly unconstitutional? Fucking anything other than just rolling over?

You neoliberals can’t fathom actually fighting back.

Of course you’ve already been told this multiple times, and refuse to accept the reality that you are just wrong.

Think bigger. This shit goes back to Wilson. Could you imagine what could have happened if Teddy Roosevelt ran unopposed as the Republican candidate in 1912?
