Hell yeah. I try to use more of a selectively engage - side step - Judo hip toss strategy, but matching the other person’s energy and witnessing the meltdown is very strong.

Adam Johnson of was absolutely banging the drum on this all through the end of last year and doing side-by-sides of the legacy media trying to run cover about despotism or whatever BS next to Trump’s clearly articulated vision of controlling VZ oil resources.

Straight up I think they are trying to steal valor from the Jamaican team, it still has a lot of cultural cache just because of house many people saw Cool Runnings as a child.

Thank you for the detailed explanation! It didn’t occur to me that the materials could break down over time just sitting on a shelf. When I heard expired dicks it seemed silly that there’d be an expiration date and I suppose that locked my brain out of working through the problem. Reminds me of when a FOAF told a story how when he was in college he’d spin glass as a hobby and make glass pipes. Naturally people’s next question was, can you make glass dildos? And his reaction was basically please, for the love of god, whatever you do, do not insert this quality of glass.

I mean that in general talks this way a lot on his stream. Describing servile figures as being someone’s b***h or or analogizing obseqious behavior to sexual favors, with pretty graphic language. I don’t want to get more specific, I assume you’ve heard people talk this way. As far as a “take” on it, well if someone asked him to explain himself or justify it he’d probably brush it off.

You mean hitting the vape while you’re on the toilet, right?

Noah and Felix were going hard on tropes during Hasan’s Superbowl stream, I’m glad Noah saw the error of his ways and put up the blue square! Also I assume this is inspired by the black square that blotted out twitter for a day or two after George Floyd’s murder, that stank to high heaven of an op.

Yeah people are way too comfortable getting all up in others’ business. They aren’t entitled to shit. I have an aunt nearing retirement who as far as I know isn’t a lesbian and I’ve never heard of her having a male partner, I never thought to inquire but an uncle kind of made a snide remark about her being a rumored virgin. Or for example how family members think they can just get in people’s business about if/when they plan to have kids and if they don’t like they answer they’ll expect a lengthy discourse. Oh, and god forbid a woman says she’s not planning on having children. And that is before we’re talking about coworkers or random strangers. Big ol’ case a’ nunya bizniz.

Yeah I think they haven’t worked through that. I certainly remember hearing stuff like this as recently as the run-up to the 2024 election in person, maybe not so much the homophobic stuff out loud but “Trump is Putin’s b*tch!” style things. Edit: I realize that is confusing because obviously that has homophobic implications, I mean that the explicitly homophobic stuff takes a back seat to the feminizing part – it’s late, bear with me.

Edit 2: There was someone at a Met gala or Oscar’s type event a couple years back with a dress that read “peg the patriarchy,” and it’s like no, you are reinforcing the attitudes you are supposedly trying to subvert.

I have defended Hasan on here but frankly this is something he does frequently.

Someone needs to explain to me the part about these being “expired dicks.” I know that wasn’t in this article but I was seeing that elsewhere this was mentioned.

Mechanic is hangin’ pipe(-wrench)

I’m heaps excited, that poster is really streets ahead.

Ooooh, I see what you did there, yeah I’m having a smooth brain Saturday so it’s good you put the nudge emoji there.

Even with the cross-out cancel sign that’s still a bold move. I think this is what the whipper snappers are calling aura.

When a shaved head white boy covered in skull tattoos is just here to chill and vibe out.

D’oh!, the nihilist billionaire child abusers, I knew I forgot to ask someone. But yeah like I_Voxgaard said it is class solidarity by the ruling class. I hadn’t thought of that angle of the use of the rabble to torpedo leftist movements, that’s good.

Textbook example of coworker politics. I am curious how the people who want the TPUSA halftime show will react to it.

Yeah, it’s fuckin’ awesome. This is how I learn that E04 is out, hell yeah dudes rock.

It is somewhat interesting to see all the conservative grievance trigger phrases rolled into one package but detached from the time period when those things were being ginned up. I don’t have the mindset to evaluate how that hits but I wonder if it has the impact it’s supposed to.
