The fact that the GOP censured Schiff is just further proof that the Russian collusion was real and the GOP covered it up

Also he was more a politician who wakes up in the morning and goes "welp time to gently caress" and then further destroys the country.

The Islamic Shock posted:The thing that annoys me about "X party/politician wants to destroy America" is that even if you assume the worst about the target of your ire (they are only in it for money and power, so basically Ted Cruz), guess what happens if you destroy the country that gives you that money and power? A politician who wakes up in the morning and goes "welp time to destroy my country" might as well be saying "welp time to completely gently caress myself". That doesn't happen. To be fair, when they say that [democrat] is going to destroy America they mean “white America.”

Murdstone posted:Yeah that was a good one. Gonna miss The Nib. I wonder where all those cartoonists will go. I'm saying I hate it, and it exemplifies the worst qualities of the Nib. It's smug, bloody-mouthed and self-righteously cynical to the point of eliding facts in order to reach its position of detached nastiness (two of the victims included the 19-year-old son of one of the billionaires, who was pressured into attending, and the other was the guy whose company had salvage rights to the wreck and did a metric ton of education and history work regarding the Titanic). It communicates no sentiment or information of value. The Nib has produced a ton of excellent cartoons, including longform educational work. It's also produced a steady flow of this sort of selectively cynical work that lives up to its unofficial masthead: "Rise and shine! The world is doomed".

It's always a good day to laugh at billionaire deaths. They don't come often enough to pass up the opportunity. The kid, sure, whatever. He's still not worth the coverage he's getting over the refugees who were killed at the same time. Edit: I don't just think it's objectively funny and just, I believe it is good for people to see other people hating the rich and talking about how they made the world worse while they were alive.

They're currently going through a "at some schools there's students who identify as cats!" news cycle, as usual based on some weirdos making poo poo up whole cloth. But it gained enough traction that even major politicians have commented on it by now.

Nativity In Black posted:The quotes around "change" make feel like this is supposed be incredulous, but the only way I can read it is that once rare weather phenomena are occurring more regularly.... due to climate change. Zyglis seems to be prone to accidentally making cartoons that state, or at least suggest, the opposite of what he wants to say. For the record, I'm fairly sure you have read it correctly; he is saying climate change is real, but the quotes make it seem like he was trying to say the opposite thing.

I know basically gently caress-all about weed, especially dosage, but even I know that two pounds is "I've got a supply for a while so I don't have to run to the store every other day." Two pounds is a lot to have on hand for personal use no matter how you slice it, but probably not “I’m running a distributor business” level. Personally I think it’s good they’re setting the bar on the side of “let’s not get anybody who isn’t selling weed as a major business venture.” e: for reference, when I was in college a little over a decade ago, a friend of mine once had… I can’t remember if it was a quarter pound or a half pound. I remember thinking “holy gently caress, that’s more weed than I’ve ever seen” but it’s not like 19-year-old me was any kind of authority on the subject. I think the value of that stash was on the order of a couple hundred dollars in my pre-legalization state at that time. Five Year Plan fucked around with this message at 06:08 on Jun 25, 2023 |
