Raised By Birds posted:John Deering What the gently caress is this? The Southern Border clearly isn't doing anything to keep immigrants out so ending Title 42 won't really do any damage. Not really AGC (since the idea is still "it's good to keep out immigrants") but it's still also kind of the opposite of what Branco is trying to say.

HootTheOwl posted:So you agree: No more dark money? It's not "dark money" if it supports Republicans. Anyway, this cartoon is an example of the right appropriating an issue that originated on the left (i.e., banning or forcing the disclosure of dark money sources as a part of campaign finance reform) and then extensively using it against them so the public will see it as a conservative issue. When that happens, liberals will shy away from the issue and no longer discuss it which is the Republicans' main goal.

I can't leave well enough alone, so despite this being a straight forward AGC, I'm going to analyze it. This is a date. They're having a date. So the most likely case is the man is, single, and adult, has no kids, clearly didn't go to the movie with his date (who had no idea the movie existed) and thus went to a Disney movie alone, but also didn't like it. At which point, you can leave, just walk away, my dude, hit the bricks. The correct way to start this topic during a date is "Have you seen the newest Disney movie?" (She hasn't. She didn't know it existed.) then you can segue into an appropriate avenue of conversation based on your date's response. Unless the purpose of your statement is not to start a conversation, but to instead virtue signal that you believe the "correct" thing abut the Disney movie. Which is to say that, he is virtue signalling that he is a bigot.

Pope 1: Scott Morrison on how elections are not a popularity test, "You go to the dentist, doesn't matter whether you like him or not, like her or not, but you want to know that they’re good at their job. And that’s what this is about." The IPCC report on climate change says Australia will not meet its targets but this barely rates a blip in the campaign so far: Latest IPCC report offers key lessons for Australia but is anyone listening? (Guardian). Pope 2: I don't know if these were published but David Pope is tweeting out cartoons of scandals which the majority of the media have decided aren't important in this election. This one is "Robodebt", where the government sent out automatic demands to welfare recipients to repay their benefits which they did not need to do, drove some people to suicide, was later found to be unlawful and faced a huge compensation payout, and which no politician faced any repercussions. Rowe: Anthony Albanese quotes Taylor Swift "shake it off" about his gaffe in forgetting the unemployment rate. Shakespeare: Badicuao: Knight: In non-federal election news (at least yet): Gillon McLachlan announces he is stepping down as AFL chief executive at end of 2022 season (ABC). Spooner: Six whole weeks of this.

KennyMan666 posted:Oh, that happened to me today when trying to read some daily comics. When I disabled uBlock Origin for the page, the comics were showing up again, but just confirmed that they're still gone if I enable it. Yeah, same here. I checked, and the contents of the <image> tag change whether I have uBlock active. Guessing it's some anti-adblocker stuff. Unless it's uBlock being overzealous, since it doesn't seem to affect the browser I use on my phone. Just makes the process more of a nuisance, since I can't rely on the "updated today" tag they use since they'll sometimes upload comics a day after and backdate them. Happens quite often with Payne, for some reason.

You know, I have a really clear memory of a math test when I was fifteen. Trigonometry. The word problems the teacher wrote, in order to mix it up from the usual trig questions of "how tall is this tree," involved one question working out the distance between two students who were meeting in the bushes in the empty lot near the school for Unspecified Reasons, and for another question the distance between a woman in a hot air balloon and a young man sunbathing naked that she was spying on. But they were straight couples so no one cared. (we were all suitably entertained, though, which was the point)
