AtomikKrab posted:Wouldn't Kim Kardashian be a CEO anyway? Ratman is the sort of person who thinks that all CEOs built themselves up from nothing out of an abandoned shack and therefore deserve all the money they "earned." Meanwhile, performers and the like just stand around and sing a few songs, bing bong so easy, why do they get so much money?

"Let's go Brandon" just isn't fun for them if everyone already knows what it actually means. They need it to be their cheeky little dogwhistle so they can pretend they're revolutionaries speaking in code from behind enemy lines.

Scaramouche posted:This implies they think the KKK is bad The Klan is only bad when they need to dunk on a democrat. You see, there's the KKK which was 100% invented by Democrats and has only ever had democrats for members and are easily identified by the pointy white hoods, and then there's the people who believe everything that the Klan believes, but they dress nice and dogwhistle everything into how they just want to explore alternative viewpoints on race and how anyone insufficiently white is actually subhuman chattel.

Dr. VooDoo posted:Little libraries are often pointed to as something people can do if they’re upset about their local library funding being slashed or outright closed. So what started as a cute project has morphed into yet another “Just boot strap your own social services!” I see the point in that it does drastically minimize all of the things a library actually does, but at the same time, I dunno. Just seems like it's yelling at clouds.

Drakyn posted:I don't understand the metaphor: if the gun is the harmless and mild hand-crafted wooden club, then what is the far-deadlier and easily-accessible giant rock meant to symbolize? I feel like I'd have noticed if there were a more dangerous version of a gun that can be found lying around on the ground in the woods everywhere. Well you see, criminals have access to special Criminal Only stores where they can illegally buy things no matter how many laws are passed. That's what only law abiding citizens are ever affected by laws.

Indiana_Krom posted:Conservatives: Why hasn't the government done more to fix X? It's important to bear in mind that their idea of big government overreach is "things I don't like." "Oh, it's illegal now to beat the hell out of someone for being black? More big government at work. They need to focus on the real issues like making sure no one has to bake a wedding cake with rainbow frosting."

Jagged Jim posted:Oh, is that what she's trying to do? So far they've just been going "I'ma do it!" "Don't do it!" "I'ma do it" without elaborating so I have no idea what the hell they're going on about here. Yeah, we've reached this part in the cycle. Carmen will run for office, either as a republican or libertarian, depending on how bad the republicans are looking in the news in two weeks.

Vib Rib posted:I feel extreme deja vu because I'm pretty sure "I'm gonna do it!" and then after a week of buildup "it" turns out to be "running for office" is a plotline they've actually done already, beat for beat. Prickly City, like time, is a flat circle. There are no beginnings or endings with the wheel. It is a story arc yet to come and a story arc long passed.

Pants Donkey posted:I think the talking point is that those infected already should be exempt from any vaccine mandates. But it’s not immunity, and it’s not permanent. “Natural immunity” degrades just like the vaccines, and you are almost guaranteed to catch covid at least once a year if you just rely on prior infections, and I don’t even know what the severity is for a prior infection, but there’s no reason to NOT get the vaccine unless there’s a complication with prior infections (of which I have not heard) Yeah, that's the major point a lot of the chuds I'm exposed to are making, that since they've already had covid (sometimes even twice), they're already super immune and shouldn't be subject to any mask or vaccine requirements.

Ok, not gonna lie, I do sympathize with the fact that snow days are going to be a thing of the past. Yeah, I know, you had to make them up at the end of the year, but still, waking up and seeing your school on the list of cancellations was like winning the loving lottery for me when I was young.

Grimdude posted:I think whenever someone lists off "all the things we've tried" with regards to covid, it's important to point out that no we did not in fact earnestly try those things. Also that we had to fight conservatives literally every single step of the way and thus ended up in this exact situation where we "tried" closing schools, movie theaters, bars, etc. Words are magical. It's like "defund the police." That never happened, in fact, they're giving the police even more money. But, since someone once uttered the words, that means that it totally happened.
