I tell people as often as I can, especially my trans and bipoc friends; now is the time. Get a couple guns (a long one and a short one) and learn how to use them. Learn some basic first aid, you really just need to know how to stabilize someone. Start networking with like-minded people in your communities. The police will not protect us, they’ve proven they’ll happily club senior citizens to the ground and shoot any protesters in the face with rubber bullets while escorting a rightwing murderer to safety.

Iran was a secular, liberal state until almost 1980 when they (mostly legitimately) elected an Islamist theocracy; it could happen here

Directions unclear, now I’m in the hot sun in blue jeans, diving into the sand.

You know Maverick never got the sand out of those jeans, absolute psychopath.

It’s worked incredibly well for the right over the last 50 years. I suspect the left doesn’t actually have the discipline to do the same.

Oh noes he’s gonna tell! Report me too you dumb motherfucker.

Mmmm, pie.

Somehow these evil chucklefucks are able to rack up multiple felonies, defy court orders, do whatever they want and really face no repercussions. If his lawyers ever manage to convince him to actually do his time it’ll be in the cushiest, softest minimum security camp. This guy is who people are talking about when they say eat the rich; he’s like a cartoon villain, he’s evil because it’s fun and easier.

Huge agree about pushing their merch! They’re shameless. I used to watch every day for years but stopped a long time ago; when every episode became a food episode. Their podcast (Ear Biscuits) is a bit better, it’s more them talking about things long form, just being 40+ year old fairly normal (if not very successful) guys. They’ve talked about quitting GMM, I think once their various kids are done with school they’ll pack it up (the main show at least). They both have other passions but it’s really difficult to stop when you’ve built a successful, working media company with your childhood best friend, even if they’re both ready to retire.

They actually bought Smosh and brought Ian and Anthony back, and then sold Smosh back to them a few years later. That was a really cool move to me and and got them a HUGE pass in my book, they’re stand-up guys.

Full disclosure: despite not watching much of their video content anymore I still went and saw them on their most recent tour (about a month ago, it was a gift) and had a great time. They did some of their games but modified them to be specific to my state, did a food ranking with some local-foods, and of course had a couple musical numbers.

includes a recent illustrated adaptation of Anne Frank’s diary; both volumes of Art Spiegelman’s Holocaust graphic memoir “Maus”; “The Fixer,” Bernard Malamud’s novel about a historical instance of antisemitic blood libel

No it seems to be the Diary of Anne Frank and 600+ other books.

why do you want books about minors exposing themselves to one another to be available to minors?

Have you read the book because that definitely “sounds like propaganda” and we’ve already established you have problems discerning the difference between that and reality.

But hey, why do YOU mindlessly parrot talking points put out by far right Latino zionists like Luis Cabrera? Jk we all know the answer, dumb little tankie parroting a fucking evangelical, fuck off.

Prove they are trying to remove Anne Frank from libraries.

Do you even read the titles before you come here saying dumb shit?

It might be true, but I think that sounds like propaganda.

Yeah obviously you have problems distinguishing truth from propaganda, we’re all aware.

Your lack of personal awareness is hilarious.

Piss off now please.

Enjoy simping for PayPal or whatever you’re doing Muskrat.

So you logged into all their social media and changed their passwords and recovery emails right? I don’t just want access now, I want it in perpetuity.

It’s not Netflixes fault that they promote a show until it gets an audience and then pulls the plug? It’s not Netflixes fault they raise their prices?

It’s like you missed the last six months where everyone was talking about enshittification but sure go off how it’s “others” that made Netflix suck.

edit; additionally thanks for not disputing PayPal sucks though, that was literally my only point, have a nice day.

Yeah Zelle works too, I wasn’t endorsing any specific app as much as saying that PayPal isn’t the best method for sending money to friends.

Yeah, Netflix is a shadow Its former self, thanks for proving the point.

You seemed pretty mad about people who wear their grandma bras in the darkness of their room. Relax nobody is going to bite your style.

It’s inferior in every way. PayPal has been known to freeze accounts and drag their feet on unfreezing them. With Venmo and CashApp and all the various cryptos sending money to people has never been easier.

Spoken like an expert on the matter “Granbo”

This story is fucked up, when I first read this I got to about chapter 15 before I found out it was all real. That specific “school” only shut down in 2011 after their enrollment finally dropped off. No one in charge ever got in any trouble and presumably they all still in work in related fields.

Berkshire Hathaway and their 500k rental properties, are the enemy.
