Some fun additional notes: Taco John's was founded in Wyoming by a dude named John Turner, who was white and never pretended otherwise. The entire company structure has more crackers than a new year's party. The trademark challenge in question literally just happened; Taco John's, already hold a taco tuesday trademark; they registered it in the 1980s, and it's held in every state but New Jersey, where the inventors of the term hold the trademark. In NJ, Taco Tuesday is trademarked by its inventor, the extremely Mexican, very Hispanic Gregory's Restaurant and Bar. These humble immigrants invented Taco Tuesday in the 70s when "A friend from Texas" helped them prepare the very first of their highly authentic tacos:

Trapezium Dave posted:Rall: Biden Throws Student Loan Borrowers under the Bus I just want to point out that this is exactly the opposite of true. What was in the bill was a guarantee that student loan payments would resume no later than 60 days after June 30, 2023. Canceling the student loan forgiveness plan was explicitly not in the bill, and that undermines the SCOTUS cases against forgiveness - both sides have agreed that Congress has the ability to regulate student loans, and they chose not to block student loan forgiveness.

Vib Rib posted:Using the old political cartoon trick of disingenuously rephrasing an existing thing to make it sound way worse than it is, except even just outright lying about it wasn't enough so it still isn't human trafficking even by his fictionalized definition. It's worse than that! It's a direct attempt to discredit and diminsh the attempts of other states to investigate whether Governors Abbot and DeSantis could be charged with human trafficking for sending the migrants to them in their awful loving publicity stunts. It's a literally "I'm rubber you're glue whatever you call my heros sticks back on you" from Mike Lester in trying to claim that moving migrants into temporary housing is I hope Lester dies painfully when he goes.

And, like, it doesn't even even portray the man himself or make any strong statements of confidence. It just portrays him running. It's just the first one I've seen without a heavy backdrop of "lmao gently caress off", from either the Democrat or Republican viewpoint. idonotlikepeas posted:David Horsey Completely unrealistic, you know she'd misgender her deliberately.

Gamble's been around forever, though, you can look at the OP for the Politoon thread a decade ago - he's in the cartoonist index and noted for having the worst color palette in the thread (at the time). Or we can still call him new, whatever. At least he's not using neon green as much any more.

It's so wonderful to see that used as a metaphor by someone who openly supports sending real people to die horribly in the real loving desert (and still calls it an "open border" as long as it's a Democrat doing it). Ain't no  big enough.

Yeah didn't people in old timey times drink mostly beer or wine mixed with water because everyone pooped in the river so you wanted some alcohol in it to sterilize it. Fake edit Could you drink beer instead of water and still survive? quote:According to the researchers, these results indicate that beverages with low alcohol concentrations have "a negligible diuretic effect" when consumed in a state of exercise-induced dehydration. The researchers conclude that recovering from a state of dehydration is effectively the same whether you're rehydrating with water, or a beverage containing up to 2% alcohol — though drinks containing 4% alcohol, they write, "tend to delay the recovery process." So yeah while drinking the Bud Lite would keep you from dying of dehydration (and you could do better with unlimited free Bud Lite since you could open it and let the alcohol evaporate faster than the water), it is not worth it because the beer is woke.
