  • I blocked ML, then blocked Trump and Elon as keywords.

    I don’t see this behaviour much anymore.

    Someone took the time to make this comic. Don’t be that person. You’re better than that and should enjoy much more enriching things than exhausting your energy into the black hole that goes no where, but you’ve been socially led to think is somehow important and noticed.

    Step 1. Start blocking the tribe’s.camp sites.











  • Always? The “classical” in your article does not mean what you think it does. Just like post-modernism doesn’t mean “the future”. Capitalism didn’t even exist in the era it’s referencing, rightfully referring to laissez faire instead—something capitalism would eventually arise from.

    One of the strongest criticisms of capitalism by liberals is its failure to achieve a moral and equitable distribution of resources. The violation of social freedoms for sake of a market’s freedom. Markets obv play a vital role in driving economic growth but persistent issues such as corruption and institutional weaknesses prevent social justice.

    Even Adam Smith criticised laissez faire in the end because, surprise surprise, it was yet another great idea on paper that was incompatanle with human nature. The result is the freedom of some encroaching on the freedom of others; i.e. fundamentally anti liberal.

    A liberal will support freedom in a market but never support the exploitation or inequality of individual freedoms, such as the outcomes of pure capitalism. Someone that claims to be a liberal while their ideals strip people’s liberties is a fucking wolf in sheep’s clothing.



  • It’s quite clear to me that almost no one in the US—or those “educated” by US politics on social media—has any fucking idea what a “liberal” fundamentally is and always has been. It’s going to become another one of those great terms ruined by a takeover of idiots—not that I’m directly calling your mom an idiot.

    But ffs, when the French gifted that statue, it wasn’t because they were pro-capitalism, burning books, fucking off women’s rights, and bringing the legal system into every facet of society.





  • The same Canaanites from Noah’s son because after everyone was killed by a flood, God deemed Canaan’s blood the good people worth saving?

    He sure seemed to fuck it up and have to wipe out humans quite a few times. But that’s what you get for putting a tree in Eden for no other reason but to introduce sin to the innocent and trick humans into thinking Lucifer was the evil one.

    And now he loves America. Just don’t tell the Italians.

    Starting to see a pattern of bad outcomes for whoever makes a deal with this guy at the time…

    A pet store franchise in Australia recently just rebranded themselves at “Pet-O”.

    With the Australian accent, it’s “pedo”.

    So I wonder things like this got past that many people without someone saying, “Maybe Fat Balls isn’t a smart choice.”



  • That’s such a mix bag. I’m not a cake person myself, but you had me at hummus—I assume random vegies be good. The trick for the toots is water. It all gets in your digestive system, but diluted. You’ll still have some gas, but a lot less. Also hydration never killed anyone, despite water poisoning technically being a form of fatality.

    You gotta weigh it up; farts or a piss. My personal opinion, probably go with the farts because I don’t have to get up.
