  • Bernie Sanders urges progressives to vote Democratic in November

    Jump

  • ...actually jk, I didn't vote at all. If I can't have it all, then burn it all down!

    Also /s

  • Sen. Mark Kelly says Trump administration is "flailing" in Iran and "has to try to figure out a way out of this"

    Jump

  • I think he's only holding off the ground invasion until after the mid-terms. Not because it would work, mind you, but because that bald zombie fuck, kegsbreath, and the other yes-man goons tell him it's a good idea.

    They know ground troops now would fuck them in the mid-terms, but they're itching to do it. When it turns into another Iraq/Afghanistan he won't be around long enough to care. All of them will be focused on fucking up everything they can before they take the money and run.

  • What gives you goosebumps?

    Jump

  • Certain movie scenes. When I was a kid I watched Back to the Future a lot, and the scenes with the DeLorean always did it.

    Also certain memories when they come at opportune times.

    And rarely when I pee...usually when I'm too hot after exerting in the summer heat.

  • I found this on the beach what could it br

    Jump

  • The exploding cigarette is hilarious! These days adult me thinks damn, that's dangerous, but the kid is still in there laughing.

    Was your brother ok, and did you get to watch it blow up?!

  • I found this on the beach what could it br

    Jump

  • I decided to have a trial run with one of those in the sixth grade cafeteria. It certainly did the job, and I had some time with the vice principal.

    Itch powder also works.

  • Did Argentina even have a shot on target?

    Jump

  • You stressed the shit out of stress, careful or you'll rupture something!

  • Yes, Donald Trump got booed at the World Cup Final

    Jump

  • Ahem, England would like a word. They didn't gallivant about with the French on Saturday to share third place with Pampers+++++

  • People of Earth, let's lend Spain our energy

    Jump

  • Spain can't give them justice any more than FIFA can for unfairly influencing those games through various means.

  • Trump backs away from plan to charge fees in the Strait of Hormuz as attacks intensify

    Jump

  • TACO Tuesday is back!

    Trump backs away from plan to charge fees in the Strait of Hormuz as attacks intensify

  • Mexico is a good team, but surely this a bit of an unfair advantage for Mexico

    Jump

  • Given every advantage, including England down to 10 players, I'm glad the crowd of ~70,000 Mexico fans went away disappointed. They were having tantrums over every little thing and booing the opposition every second of possession, so it was good to have them silenced.

  • Suffering looks exactly like this.

    Jump

  • In shorts, unless you're kicking a ball, high socks make you look like a dork

  • They fired the people who actually knew what they were doing

    Jump

  • The same companies who know firsthand that early adoption is most often foolish based on what they tend to put users through. What a huge, expensive race for a half-baked product with no guarantee of value.

  • Texas State Board of Education votes to require millions of students to study Bible stories | CNN

    Jump

  • This move reeks of desperation of a dying sphere of influence. The old geezers who pushed it will have short term gratification, many on the way to their graves.

    But imposing their views will come at a cost. Kids are more aware than they think. The backlash to being force-fed christianity will poison its tentacles even as they grow.

  • Ken Paxton narrowly leads James Talarico in new Texas Senate poll

    Jump

  • Not all Rs are magats in TX, and Paxton's forte is not with winning hearts and minds. There's a decent chance that lots of these traditional Rs, even if they're not put off by Paxton's scumminess, won't bother themselves to show up and support him in Nov.

  • Mitch McConnell 'continues his recovery' amid 8-day hospitalization

    Jump

  • Depends whether one has PTO in the first place, and has hoarded enough over time to cover it.

    There's also short term disability, but even if you pay extra for that I don't think that's long enough to be short-term.. And even if 8 days qualifies, most don't pay the full wage for time taken. Funny isn't it?

    Plus very few companies have sick leave as distinct from PTO, basically sick or not, your ass wasn't at work.

  • Tucker Carlson says he'll no longer support the Republican Party

    Jump

  • I heard on a podcast Carlson wants to make a run for POTUS. Do you think Yang would put him up?

  • Iran shuts Strait of Hormuz over Israel's attacks on Lebanon, deepening the Middle East crisis

    Jump

  • Strong Man look weak. Look scared. Strong Man pay big money for end fight. Fight not over. Strong Man not know what do, want go home, forget fight. Strong Man tribe not forget.

    You walk into a restaurant and see this. What’s your first thought?

    Jump

  • I find the sign condescending, shaming, and presumptuous (40%). If I owned the place that's not how I'd want it represented when people come in.

    Restaurants are already expensive before factoring in tips. If the place gets a reputation that our staff are accustomed to 40% gratuity the business may struggle.

    The US restaurant system is broken. Pressuring the customers you rely on, who face the same economic hardships as you, is not going to fix it.

  • The Trump Meet the Press interview that spun out of control after he was probed about his ‘rigged elections’ conspiracies

    Jump

  • I never thought I'd see the day when a politician spewing obvious lies in an interview, engaging in ad hominem attacks against the interviewer, and storming off like a toddler would achieve anything but alienation.

    But this will go mostly unnoticed by his supporters. Cue Carr threatening NBC's broadcast license in 3, 2, 1...

    Buyer's remorse is such a strong taboo that it leads people to defend things in their lives which harm them. Can anything be done to start countering this?
