Just a reminder that at least 600 Americans were fired for failing to show sufficient respect after Charlie Kirk's murder.

It's not in this article but the government asserts that the sandwich was thrown at "point blank range", which implies subway sandwiches have defined effective weapon ranges of varying lethality, and I would like to see the government's chart of these ranges.

I love that we’re all unanimously like “listen that building is not sacred to me and it has a bloody history and if it came down ethically I probably wouldn’t shed a tear, but watching this man smash a wrecking ball into the side of it from sheer selfish malice has unexpectedly fucked me up”

the truth is that this isn't a theocracy and jesus isn't my fucking king
Chip Roy: "The truth is the marxist, radicals, and Islamists the Democratic Party promoted this weekend, they cannot handle the truth. The truth is that there is a king and that king is Jesus. And the president has been willing to say it, & Charlie Kirk was willing to say it & he got killed for it."

Everyone I know who has done a public proposal has picked out the ring w the partner beforehand.
Proposing marriage to someone in front of a crowd is coercion and a “yes” is not freely given consent.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

The problem with “virtue signaling” as a rhetorical framework was always that it pressed you not toward deeper and more sincere acts of virtue, but away from goodness as a goal at all.

At least (some) tech can afford it. Hospitals and schools, on the other hand.....
It’s honestly shocking to me that tech has effectively rolled over and accepted it now costs $100K to hire a foreign worker.
The degree of capitulation during his second presidency has been quite stunning.

Look, these people are Protestants.
Far-right Catholics freaking out about the Pope doing normal Pope things will always be entertaining.
The Pope blessed some water? Can you even imagine?

Callout post for my former uncle
I don't think getting divorced in and of itself is a bad thing because if a relationship starts going south there's nothing wrong with calling it quits and moving on, but once a man gets above a certain number of ex-wives I think that does say something about him and it's not anything good
