Yeah but until 2014 looked like the Dems still had the Senate...What's the rush? Easy one to call years later, but at the time? Were you calling for her to retire then?

How was she supposed to know that this is where the country would be? Fuck even in 2016? Pancreatic cancer is often a death sentence, she could have figured she'd die with Obama in office, but then at some point we end up crossing the line where McConnell won't let Obama's nominee even get a vote. Gonna disagree and say over the line Smokey, mark it zero dude.

You only get trebuchets when you capture a French engineer and let them rename your siege weapons. Sometimes they get sentimental though and rename them "Bertha" and your opponents laugh at you.

You're gonna get tried in a kangaroo admiral court and yet gonna walk the pouch pal! And you're gonna like it!

Krakatoa!

Oh this is already well worth it, in before the lock. I was banned from a gun enthusiast site back around the Sandy Hook shootings for predictable reasons. I don't think I was particularly being a dick, or that the mods there were either. I've had probabaly hundreds of posts deleted, some threads locked, and a few threads outright deleted*. Was less upset about those than some other threads that the board simply ate. Lmao

Somebody posted this thing around when I joined the board with the caption "Rhaegar Targaryen's classic music video"

Oh god I forget about the stupid fucking rings

I'm not calling for the OP to be banned, or for his speech to be limites, just for his ideas to be ridiculed. Who cares if a conservative think tank doesn't invite leftist speakers for an event, or a Milo Yiannpoulis gets protested? Deplatforming someone isn't revoking their freedom of speech. What I mean by the collective public is that if you out your ideas out into the world no one is under any compulsion to engage with them. If there's some substance there, your argument will stand on its own. Or you get things like this thread. This is free speech in action even if you don't like the tone.

The collective public gets to say. You're looking at this backwards - it's not about who gets deplatformed, it's about who gets a megaphone. Free speech doesn't give you the right to have everyone have to hear what you have to say. If your ideas suck (objectivism) and are largely trash, why should anyone bother to listen or engage in a serious manner. Better to point out this stuff out. I don't have to sit here and treat every idea or thought that everyone has equally - it makes zero sense to consider something like objectivism like it's a serious idea with any kind of framework behind it. What about fruitarianism? Why aren't people engaging with fruitarianism more seriously and without humor?

You need to get some better weed, get out of the house, and live a little.

If only we all agreed on what it means to get rid of ICE

You can stuff your North American possum-doubt (sad to say possum doubt is a thing) in a sack, amigo! They are super fucking cool! Super cool!

Snap into a jack burger. A rawwww jackburger

A portly and genial possum lives under the floor board of our shed for a couple of years, and temporarily fostered our now deceased cat Kevin. Kevin jumped off the bumper of a car in front of our house at the tender age of 8 weeks, and then scurried into the backyard when my roommate tried to catch him. He ran under the floor boards of the shed. I arrived home hours later to a roommate despondent and inconsolable regarding the kitten trapped in the Deep of the shed. We went back there and i opened the hole in the floor enough to get a hand down there, at which point the roommate seemes to rise from her depression and stuck here phone down there and snapped some pictures. This was a mid November night in upstate New York, the temperature hovering around 20 F. We checked the pictures in her phone and saw a black-eyes hoary possum baring it's 40+ teeth, and pressed against it's flank mangy and malnourished, but now warm, kitten. Two days later my roommate had lured the kitten onto our porch, he then lived a memorable but brief two years with us. His name changed from Owl to Kevin at somepoint, and I think of him often. And of the possum who kept him warm that cold November night.
