Man what a warped world you live in.

That’s so wild. Anyway I was in NYC that morning and I know for a fact that Luigi couldn’t have assassinated the CEO because actually I saw my friend do it. My very close friend who I’d recognize anywhere. So it definitely wasn’t Luigi

This is actually a good sign. It’s proof that the demonstration is working. The people that need to be are beginning to become exasperated with the situation.

Press on, press harder. They will do more violence before this is over, but they must be given no ground. No safe haven. They must never feel as though they’ve secured any small victory.

Forgive me, this is the first time I’m encountering that term in a way that challenges how I understand it.

Would you mind elaborating on why we don’t expect to hear from them in this case?

The only way to tell if your protests are working is if the state is restoring to violence to stop you from continuing to demonstrate.

The only way protests are ultimately effective is for the beleaguered group to be easier to negotiate with then it is to further supress them with violence.

The powerful give no ground willingly. It must be taken from them.

“mmmmm. Boot. My favorite!”

That guy, almost certainly

That presumes the law works for you.

The police state loves that they can just buy the data the big tech companies are happily farming. No warrants, no judges, no pesky civil rights to get in the way. Just full time monitoring.

At what point did they shoot the dog?

The chair is far too peaceful an option

I wasn’t willing to spend much more time and that was the least flattering option.

Can I have the color corrected version in a Geordi meme? So I know which one is cool or not

And for those same whiney liberals are triggered by this and are ready to write an essay about how “nuh uh! Actually…!”

1. they will do that regardless.
2. everclear and socks are cheap and easy.
3. I plead the 5th. Don’t post your crimes online. Don’t take your phone with you when you do crimes.
4. peaceful protests only work with direct action. The march on Selma was about getting a lot of people to be told they can’t vote more than it was about being seen being angry. You’ve been lied to about how peaceful protests work on purpose. People in power will not give you the education you need to overthrow them.
5. go ahead and like that pride meme, really show the algorithm you’re an “ally.” Allies get in the trenches when the war is on.
6. you will probably lose that to a video card anyway.
7. strike and move. If you stick around you’re a target. The US military has never been good at dealing with insurgencies.
8. see: John Brown.

That clears it up thank you

Oh. Oh boy. Are you in for an interesting bit of horse history.

I first heard about this in episode 469 of The Dollop about Peter Christian Barrie. But if an hour and a half of two jackasses giggling their way through it isn’t quite how you’d like to have this delivered to you, this is a write up about the event:

It doesn’t matter. They’re fascist occupiers. Unless they shot an actual supervillain threatening to blow up Disneyland, they have objectively killed someone less evil and less deserving of violence than than they are.

I know Painted is a breed of horse but I can’t help but think of the time that a guy would literally paint and dye horses to create convincing sub ins, then sometimes shoot them full of heroin to make them faster or slower, depending on the dose.

In Hades, Sisyphus basically mirrors that sentiment. He’s content with the predictability of his lot, and isn’t really interested in breaking out of it.

At least in the first one, I haven’t played the sequel

I can’t tell if you’re serious…

States hold their own elections. He can’t cancel them.

If he tries, the civic contract is dead. No more taxes. No more peaceful protests.
