  • This is like watching a grandpa who’s a conspiracy nut learning to use social media.

  • Oh god, Flo is the worst. Just so awkward and annoying.

  • I used to have Liberty Mutual for my car insurance. Then that stupid ass commercial came on, with that obnoxious, one-word jingle: “Liberty Liberty Liberty… Liberty!”.

    I turned off auto-renew and switched to another company (and it was cheaper).

    Is that petty? Yes. Do I regret it? Nope.

  • Yeah it’s different down here. All the history down here, plus some of the older white folks still using that word… ugh.

    And KRS One is one of the best MCs of all time imho!

  • This might sound dumb, so bear with me.

    I grew up in a super poor city, predominantly black. All my friends from there listened to hip hop where it was used a lot, they said it, their families said it, etc..

    What I did was sub that word with another when I was singing. It became a habit. I thought that was a better idea than getting into the habit of singing it, where I might slip up and say it around them (since it was commonly used around there).

    It’s a lot easier to create a new habit than break an old one, you know?

  • Don’t say it. That’s the rule.

    You get a pass from a black friend? Cool. Still don’t say it.

    Come up in a black neighborhood, only white kid, they say “it’s cool” because y’all grew up together? Don’t say it.

    It’s about respect. If you’re not black, don’t say it.

  • Of course, because money is more important than anything else.

  • Thankfully, there’s Lemmy. Makes me appreciate it even more when I read stuff like this.

  • “The Trump Administration has a zero tolerance policy for criminal behavior …”

    Dude that’s your entire administration. Have some self-awareness, you orange, sagging, coffin dodging oxygen thief.

  • I was actually just making a joke that I found funny. That was all.

  • I get where you’re coming from, but are you actively attacking the government right now?

    I think those who are part of the government have a greater chance of effecting change.

    Moreover, I live in a red state (currently), and although our TST congregation is small, we do quite a bit.

    Or just bitching about how other people aren’t doing enough?

    Why not both?

  • Good strategy. IIRC, this is how German citizens stopped the rise of Hitler.

  • 😐 <— me, being totally surprised.

  • Looooooool

  • I’ve run out of ways to explain my absolute embarrassment for the state of this country.

  • Insanity, thy name is “republican.”

  • Darn.

  • Exactly. This dumb bastard talks out of both sides of his neck.
