Fun fact: the elephant is more depressed because he has to listen to cunts sit there discussing their identity as if it's some gross aberration also they won't help them get the fucking needles out

Ryan Marino, MD @ryanmarino.bsky.social · 1d

What do antivaxxers think autism is

A man and a woman are sitting in chairs near a TV screen that says “SCIENTISTS ARW MYSTIFIED AS TO WHAT IS CAUSING AUTISM.” An elephant with 12 hypodermic needles sticking out of it is sitting on the floor next to them looking forlorn and wearing a button that says “I HAVE AUTISM.”

If the Democrats winning relies on trans people being hurt than the Democrats do not deserver to win

the tallest stone @talleststone.bsky.social · 13h

I hate to say it but the majority of the country is not going to die on the hill of trans rights. We can’t protect ANY groups if we can’t win a national election, so purity tests only serve to make specific groups feel triumphant. That’s not “erasing” them; it’s long-horizon strategy.

I honestly think they'll move Heaven and Earth just to not just admit the Democrats won a shit campaign and they are primarily responsible for losing

Though folks will turn around and go "HE'S USING HER FOR CLOUT!!!" so I mean you can't win lol

I didn't even know he had a dog until this clip so I don't know how important she is to his brand 🤷‍♀️

You Call Yourself a Film Critic @filmcriticmaybe.bsky.social · 14h

I don't watch the guy but I'm hearing she's in the room because she won't stop whining to get in otherwise which I dunno would an abused animal be that eager to be near their abuser and would said abuser acquiesce to their demands that readily?

Dude has a big house he can lock her in anywhere

Dude records himself nearly 24/7 and the best you can come up with is lying about a statement and at most an awkward interaction from a pet owner???

Come on lol

You Call Yourself a Film Critic @filmcriticmaybe.bsky.social · 14h

Man between this and that clip where people argued he said trans people would have it worse under Harris which he demonstrably did not fucking say folks are so desperate to cancel him they're pulling the dumbest shit can you seriously not find actual dirt?!

At worst he's a little too aggressive with her but again I repeat myself if you've never been pissed at your dog have you ever owned a dog?

I'm happy to throw the cunt to the wolves if there is proof he abused this dog but it's not in this clip

You Call Yourself a Film Critic @filmcriticmaybe.bsky.social · 14h

People enraged by the original clip have you ever owned. A dog?

They male random yelps and pangs like that. Mine sometimes does that if he shits too hard

There's 0 proof of a shock collar in that clip you people are wild

isla @demomolos.bsky.social · 15h

please do not fall for this, there is no shock collar nor is there a fob. tectone (the guy who's father is in the congressional record for being the army's rape monster), kiwifarms, ethan klein, etc are trying to spread this because they are trying to find another venue to get hasan kicked off.

If the fear of public shaming is the only thing stopping you from deriding certain people you just hate those people. Straight up this isn't a complicated thing

If people find an excuse to judge fat people but make it "morally right" they will come out with some the nastiest intensely shitty things to say about them

But don't worry I'm sure this has nothing to do with how they really feel about fat people ofc

Evan Greer @evangreer.bsky.social · 1d

so um ... fatshaming is still bad? wtf is happening in my feed rn

If you can do that cool. Rock on. I'm like that with a lot of shit we're not rational animals

But there's this insistence I *HAVE TO* like something made by a terrible person which feels like it's way more about you than it is about everyone else

I don't know how to explain to people that maybe an artist sucking an immense amount of arse turns me off their work?

It's not a moral thing. Sometimes I just can't sit down to a thing I used to like/listen to music I used to like without thinking of the reprehensible humane being that created it

Yes thank you that pissed me off so much and made it really hard to engage with the film which even by that point wasn't doing much for me either way

Yeah that's the worst of it comparatively we have one the most generous benefit systems in the world. But our cost of living and basically unregulated rental prices offsets are exceeding "generosity"

The funniest part was she was brought in the episode that killed of Peter's mom because her voice actress-one of Bacall's contemporaries and another legend in her own right-Phyllis Diller died

Lauren Bacall's hated Twilight and her final credited role was in a late period Family Guy episode

Are they still fucking running this bullshit lol

She missed out on the nomination by TWO-*TWO*-votes and may have actually got them if she ran longer than 2 weeks before the final tally. Simple

If you have a problem with the nomination process that isn't a democratic issue it's a legislative one

Izzy Kamikaze @izzykamikaze.bsky.social · 1d

Why are certain "journalists" (yes, I'm looking at you, Irish Times) uncritically reporting Maria Steen's repeated assertions that independent candidates have been "blocked" from the presidential ballot.

The current frontrunner is an independent candidate.
