Not to defend Dementia Donnie here…but as a New Yorker, he probably knows them as bodegas?

I live in Michigan where we’ll call them party stores and corner stores, and I still know what a bodega is. No point in defending him, he’s really just an idiot.

putting his money where his neck is.

Aww, “putting his neck on the line” was right there

Or perhaps a diary farm in Wisconsin? Maybe they didn’t know Kurds was spelled with a “k” and not a “c”.

And you used to be a child, does that mean you still have to play in peewee football? Bodies change after being exposed to hormones, that’s literally what puberty is. Some changes are permanent, but the vast majority aren’t, and I can tell you that the trans dudes I know look nothing like women anymore after a couple years on HRT, and the same goes for the trans women I know.

Would I have been comfortable competing in any competitive women’s leagues in the first 3 months of HRT? Absolutely not, and I fully recognize that would have been bullshit and akin to a cis woman on PEDs. Literally every women’s team org that I’ve been on has not had a single issue with me joining the team or competing against them; it’s literally always men who never gave a fuck about women’s softball or roller derby until trans people became an easy punching bag.

I 100% understand the concern that people have, but I’d much rather us take a scientific approach to things rather than this stupid fear mongering of acting like a male powerlifter is throwing on a wig and destroying all the women’s categories. There are proper ways to handle this rather than blanket bans, and it’s just another way to distract people by scapegoating a minority and infantalizing women at the same time.

This is super common in Utah as well. Illicit drugs/alcohol are bad, but a doctor prescribes opiates so that’s okay! Really hits women hard too since the only purpose you have is as a baby/homemaker, so getting high on prescription drugs is a fun hometime activity, just like it was back in the 50s!

There’s a part of me that wants to believe that Trump is basically a double agent meant to be so blatantly corrupt and awful, taking advantage of every system in the US, that it finally wakes the US up and to realize how fucking awful everything actually is, almost like penetration testing.

I think anti-communist education works much better when a.) the majority of people aren’t suffering massively under capitalism and b.) when you don’t have a collapsing “communist” nation across the pond with which to say “We told you so!”. It’s way easier to point to the wonders of capitalism when you see people pulling themselves out of poverty by working their 9-5 factory job and raising 4 kids on a single income, and much harder when that system is now making you finance a $5 burrito, with interest.

Yeah, generally it just needs an update

Also when oil prices fell off a cliff

Unironically, Senator Armstrong would have been far better than anything we’ve been stuck with in the past 30 years. Starting forever wars, war crimes, shady MIC dealings, and trafficking minors is just par for the presidency at this point, and he at least holds to his principles. Really, he could easily run as a centrist Dem since he wasn’t raping the kids and just making child soldiers from them.

GTs or “Glory tests” have been done quarterly for decades at this point, hence being on GT-255, with the first being 63 years ago when the Minuteman was new. They’re meant to show that we can pull any random sample of our ground-based ICBMs and they’ll function, along with collecting data on how the fleet performs as it ages, among many other things. They have nothing to do with Trump, fortunately.

Don’t forget his storied MMA career!

Was hoping this’d be Hellsing Abridged, was not disappointed

Even if he wasn’t planning on it, the thought process always seems to be there. “They’re going to round us up into camps (because that’s what I would do in that position)” “They’re going to start a war to stay in power (because that’s what I would do in that position)”. Regardless of actual position or power, the vile thoughts of these people always seem to leak out in the form of an accusation.

Every accusation a confession. Every. Fucking. Time

There’s something especially funny about that statement given the “sandwich assault” case where they failed to indict.

They’ve tried this multiple times on different cases, and still fail. As much as it seems like it, the number of truly brainless sycophants in these kinds of positions is actually quite small, and it seems that specifically the judiciary has relatively few of them.

I think that might literally just be a broken seat.

It’s one thing to continuously move dates like that, but the uniqueness of giving a 3 month window and saying it with such confidence is very amusing to me.

“3 months maybe, 6 months definitely” is still one of my favorite quotes from his timeline estimates.
