Link what

It's basically every thread you see it in

Elves referred to as "prancing"
"Tree-hugger"
"Preening"
"Fancy"
"Fabulous"
"Mincing" (yes, seriously)

that's just a handful of the ones I've seen recently

It paints a pretty ugly picture about the subconscious underpinnings of their desire for elf genocide

Liv Tyler is the hottest elf

ive never liked elves on account of theyre so frequently held up as a superior form of life, often to the point of having special souls, and that kind of stuff rubs me wrong.

I usually save my annoyance for not fake real things that actually exist just sayin

I have learned this week that Americans still really get worked up about Treason.

I mean, the confederacy was vile because it was a racist slave state that desired to be destroyed but the amount of "Arggh TREASON!" stuff I've seen is pretty lol

People only really react that way because dudes will claim to be the only "real Americans" while sporting confederate flags and spouting about the war of northern aggression. They get real butthurt when you call em traitors to the colors and they're dicks so thats what we do.

I don't believe there is a need for a god to exist to explain the existence of the universe or of the human race but I've always felt that people are entitled to whatever theology makes them more comfortable with their own mortality so long as it doesn't leave their home or church. It has no place infringing on anyone else's daily activity though.

I'm the same, though in the real world, not many people actually do this, and many of the most popular religions are evangelistic by nature. it is rather annoying to see public policy so riddled with religious influence.

Ive kindof developed the personal policy of being agressively uninterested in any kind of evangelism, argument or acknowledgement just encourages them, I just look straight through them now matter how loud or annoying they're being. Works best with headphones on. Though I do make my votes and oppose any kind of religiously influenced policy, which to be perfectly fair 9 times out of 10 is just opposing any christian theology that tries to sneak into law since you really dont see any other religion with enough traction to be worming its way through the halls of local government outside a few isolated orthodox jewish communities that have managed to take over entire townships.

If you feel that your time and energy can genuinely be better spent on something other than your current job, too bad; you will stick to this suboptimal work anyway, just because the risk of leaping to something else is too great. If you feel a desperate need to take time off to recharge your batteries, then don't expect to be able to come back. If your employer does something that truly troubles you, your American colleagues may resign on principle, New Republic style, but you have not the luxury of principles

he supposedly worked for high profile law firms for about a decade, so that makes his whole "they wouldnt sponsor me waahh" argument a lot tougher to swallow. The dude had options to sidestep without making some ridiculous charity leap, he likely had the income to offset the cost of his own green card application expense he could have found a company willing to sponsor him and hire him if he made concessions to make it happen.

The immigration system is hosed, but that dude had every opportunity to be his own advocate, sounds to me like he thought he was so important that there's no way things wouldn't work out for him so he kept things on cruise control and was shocked when the world didn't bend over backwards for him and made a desperate and risky move that could have been avoided.

Also, if he was doing legal work for fortune 500 companies he likely had enough income to just buy his way to legal citizenship. Its not a game about playing the rules, its about exploiting any advantage you have to get your green card. Dude refused to play, now he leaves.

context, like, "this is like when japan launched a surprise attack and we won by dropping nukes" or "this is worse than when japan forced us to drop nukes on them"?

Well the full context in that scenario would be that we had been leveraging oil interests against the japanese and playing economic proxy games against them that would constitute incredibly aggressive actions on our part and then feigned surprise when they reacted. Which also conveniently enough turned around the public opinion on involvement in WW2, an engagement that politicians were chomping to enter but the public at large was opposed to, funny that.

I guess after Cain they figured it best if the token black candidate never speak.

After hearing him actually speak he strikes me as a genuinely dull and slow candidate. Cain had fire at least, even if he was completely insane.
