  • You asked for a nazi salute from the heart, and they gave you literal Hitler doing a salute from the heart.

    And your reply to that is that the word Nazi has lost all meaning?!

    My dude, you don’t even need critical thinking skills for this one. If you cannot straight up realize they are the same gesture, you may be suffering from brainwashing.

    You see, the other way I know it’s the Nazi salute, is because their policies are Nazi politics. It wasn’t just the Jews who ended up in camps: it was people of colour, gay people, and the disabled. A lot of Trump’s executive orders/campaign speeches fit into categories concerning those people.





  • Are Beavers really cute? The teeth of these large water rodents are orange because they are full of iron; these teeth never stop growing.

    But if you are being serious, women don’t really like being reduced to names that refer to their pudendum. It is objectifying.

    Source: Canadian woman.

    Edit: just realized which sub this is posted in. Oh well, think of the vocab word “Pudendum” as my Xmas gift to you. (Refers to a woman’s external genitals, ie. vulva.)

    3-panel comic from Poorly Drawn Lines

    1st pane: Mouse with a red balloon, saying: “Every day is a good day when you have a balloon”.

    2nd pane: balloon pops “POP”

    3rd pane: Mouse laying down on couch, under a blanket, with the shades drawn-- his facial hair is coming in.

    EDIT: fucky formatting



  • The state trial against Mangione will come before his federal trial, prosecutors said.

    WTF? I never heard about federal charges-- isn’t that double jeopardy?

    Like the reporter said, they might be trying to make it so there are no copycats, but they clearly don’t understand the number of people that wouldn’t want to be making it out alive. Their trumped up charges aren’t a deterrent.

    If I were USian, I’d be mega-pissed that they are making the CEO’s death out like Luigi killed the king.


  • I was going to bring up card catalogues and microfiche, but it is more difficult now, especially with all the AI written articles popping up a la carte as top results.

    I guess it would be like the physical library having a fee^1 to enter, the librarian men and women in lingerie and banana hammocks, and all the publications unsorted: Fiction and Non-Fiction together with celebrity magazines, The National Enquirer, and nazi publications… and lots of torn out pages.


    ^1 Fee replaces ads. I’d rather not picture a world where the advertising in the show Maniac exists. (Can’t afford the bus? The ad-reader shows up and speaks ads at you until you have “earned” the $1.25, or whatever.)




  • I quit a few months after those came out in my province, and it was a bit of a shock the first time I saw them; but then like most things, they just became stripes on the butt. I probably wasn’t their target audience though.

    While they didn’t make me quit, (I had already decided on my “quit date”), I will say the extra graphic warning pictures were pretty damm effective for starting that conversation with self. I had to take a sharpie to a few packs.


  • Here is a screenshot of the godforsaken guitar so people don’t have to give that site views:

    guitar with ugly eagle painted on it in top panel. Same guitar with hideously ugly Trump signing it

    Image transcription:
    4 panels
    Top right is a regular looking guitar with the ludicrous name “God Bless the USA guitar” for $1000.
    The bottom right is a bright red electric guitar for $1,500.
    Guitar with ugly eagle in flight spanning 75% of it, a US flag filling the remaining 25%, is in top left panel: $1,250.
    Same guitar with hideously ugly Trump signing it in bottom left panel: $10,250.
