No they had to stop storing them there after the Supreme Court went hard right. Something something Sodomy v Gomorrah or some damn thing. IDK the Republicans just make it up as they go, so it could be literally anything.

So there’s just no one in that town who owns a gun and has a sense of justice? Really?

In other words: Fuck you, Flock.

“He’s one of the good ones”

His wife’s family actually said that. He’s such a self-hating fella that it didn’t bother him.

you mean like Uncle Clarence?

They also want the rare books scanned so they can break any/all book ciphers, including those based on rare finds.

Yes, and…

those in upper management need us to see them there, in front of us, IN CHARGE.

That’s all it’s about. They need you to kneel and scrape and fucking bow, and for that, you gotta sit in a car ten hours a week and work in an uncomfortable open-space cubicle where you can hear everything, including Betty from finance chewing.

All day, every day, so that Brent the VP can feed off your collective energy admiring him like he’s a big shot. That’s why he’s the only asshole who wears a tie to an office of business casual colleagues.

It is such a perfect dark joke that I am tempted to start writing a new script around the character, and see if i can’t find a good story there in the marble.

In my head canon, he’s a pedo but rendered essentially harmless because he is so socially inept that he can’t seal the deal.

I mean christ, he has all the money in the world, and the boys on Money Guys Rape Kids For Money Island wouldn’t take his fucking money. Imagine what an awful presence you must have if those creeps, who hang out with literal scum, can’t stomach being around you.

It’s honestly insane and kinda selfish and self-defeating to say that the response to a bad situation is to just take your business elsewhere.

Like…we can’t just write off everyone else’s misery and suffering because you personally found a way to avoid it.

That is literally 99% of the world’s problems and thank you for providing a brilliant example at the lowest moral stakes possible.

You’re going to need to specify the alleged slurs. Too many people chalk shit like “Israel shouldn’t get to murder children” as anti-semitism.

A tiny PBS office in St Louis has a $19 million/year IT budget? I really doubt that.

Kinda like how the wives of cops always accidentally have black eyes.

Work keeps insisting we use it and I keep telling them to fuck off.

I get more done than my colleagues BECAUSE i don’t use the not-actually-AI “AI” tool.

IDK man how could having 300 portable, accessible ways to call 911 in a shooter emergency possibly help in that moment?

C’mon guys help me figure out this MENSA-level brain-twister.

Reagan’s crackheads have come home to roost.

So don’t buy a fucking Playstation.

This isn’t that hard to sort out.

Otherwise, we could do a sweep of one of their kid-fuck compounds and see which CEOs and politicians are there.

This way, they can prevent themselves from being spied on while also approving every single warrant against any of us, thus giving themselves all the info on us and jack shit on them.

Oh man, I wish you had actually read the article and seen how they already factored that in, because nothing you wrote is relevant to the actual study referenced here.

But this is the internet, where you don’t have to read a thing in order to mansplain that thing back to everyone else.

The salient point you missed: This is a study of ONE GROUP OF PEOPLE OVER TIME.

"We find that conservative Americans in this cohort, who were about as healthy as liberals in the early 2010s, experienced worsening health through the 2010s and higher mortality in the early 2020s. Roughly half of this new health gap is due to people changing their ideology over time, with new entrants to the conservative coalition being less healthy than new liberals. But another sizeable share is due to people who were already liberal or conservative diverging more in health over time. Changes in the socio-economics of the liberal and conservative coalitions—including education, income and insurance status—contribute to both processes.

"By the 2020s, conservatives were dying at significantly higher rates than liberals, with the gap concentrated in internal causes (for example, heart disease, cancer and stroke). The divide since 2020 is substantial: while only 0.2% of ‘very liberal’ respondents died of internal causes between 2020 and 2022, the probability for people who identified as ‘very conservative’ was 1.14 percentage points higher (P = 0.021; 95% confidence interval (CI), (0.18, 2.11)).

“This gap is not limited to deaths from COVID-19 and is not reducible to demographic or geographic differences between the groups, nor is it a pure function of ageing: previous cohorts’ death patterns in older data did not show a similar correlation between health and ideology before 2010.”

Next time, read the fucking article first.

I am judging you solely off what you said, dumbass.

I mean Christ, do you people not have ANY reading comprehension?
