1. I drove 6 hours to a women's liberal arts college to spend a week eating pussy and there were too many posters about Kwanzaa in the dorms
2. Here is an email someone sent me"

I hope his legal team can reunite him with his family in Canada. He deserves better than our failed state.

My sister worked with a girl who didn’t know who jd Vance was and yes, she had scorn heaped upon her but you know we’re a little bit jealous.

I’m sure if someone had suggested her adult child work on a holiday because he didn’t have a family that would’ve been the height of rudeness though lol

One time a coworker said I should work thanksgiving Or Christmas, I forget which because “you don’t have a family”. I said my family will be surprised to hear that.

A priest calling the entirety of homeland security evil is wholly appropriate priest behavior

Rich Raho @richraho.bsky.social · 22h

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

MYTH: ICE agents lack proper training.

FACT: Most have been racists their entire lives.

Your understanding of anticapitalism is preying upon other people so you can do nothing?

A traditional relationship is where one person works 60 hours a week, cooks and cleans and their partner gets drunk and plays video games. Real Ward and June shit.

WAP @wetasspword.bsky.social · 23h

Yeah seems like a pretty classic relationship. At least before america lost its middle class and forced most couples to work full time. This is what they took from us. Is it the genders that make this one bad or what exactly

Your dream is to exploit a vulnerable person so you don’t have to work? Your dream is to be a parasite?

I disagree. The best case scenario is that he doesn’t learn any lesson at all, because you don’t hear the one with your name on it

giving the nobel peace prize to someone who approved of indiscriminate military strikes on civilians is an indelible stain on the award.

but enough about Barack Obama,,

~ Aftermath
President Obama reduced the number of United States Army soldiers fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq, but expanded the use of unmanned air-strikes on these countries, as well as Pakistan, Yemen, Syria, Libya and Somalia. '12]
In 2016, President Obama joked in an interview with Stephen Colbert that even he didn't know
why he had received the award.!!13]
Analysis by the Council on Foreign Relations suggests that the United States Army dropped 79 per cent of all 30,743 coalition bombs in 2016.
Obama has been at war for longer than any other president in US history. 14]
The secretary of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, Geir Lundestad, said in 2015 that awarding the prize to Obama failed to achieve what the committee hoped it would. "Even many of Obama's supporters believed that the prize was a mistake," he says. "In that sense the committee didn't achieve what it had hoped for."

This mf grew up with horse stables and an apple orchard on his estate. As a real Michigan trash hick, I do not claim him.

People think kid rock is white trash and I can’t let it pass. He’s a rich kid from Romeo, MI who’s dad owned several car dealerships.
My culture is not your costume, Mr. Ritchie!

David Simon @audacityofdespair.bsky.social · 1d

I saw this, laughed, changed screens and now I can't find it again or I would credit it fully: Someone described Kid Rock, who was apparently attempting to opine on something tonight, as being "the human equivalent of an above-ground pool."

Perfect.

Every time someone goes in on kid rock for being white trash I feel compelled to inform them that it’s cosplay. He grew up in a big house with an apple orchard and stables

This morning there is one Nobel Peace Prize winner, 8.1 billion or so people who did not win the Nobel Peace Prize, and one Nobel Peace Prize loser.
