what starts as bean must always become fart

The reactionaries in my life have told me the skull is supposed to be “calavera.” Which is the Spanish word. And since C is the third letter of the alphabet then it’s a 3.

These people think gangs do puzzles like Batman villains

I feel like there’s also some state propaganda involved in making it seem like lottery winners just blow all their money and become poor again. I don’t know how true that is but it’s always smelled wrong to me.

Goddamn, read some Marx. Incorporate materialism into your worldview.

170 years after he ripped into Max Stirner and Bruno Bauer for this exact type of thing and here are people still posting this idealist horsefeathers on my hexbear of all places. Fuck.

yeah there’s no central authority saying who is a Christian and who isn’t. And where exactly in any of the books does it say the full book must be considered? There isn’t even a full agreement on what the Bible constitutes, and the full canonical version didn’t even exist until at least 400 AD, which was 300 years after the Book of Revelations was written. There was no “full book” when any of the books were written.

And even if you wanted to say a central Christian authority exists, I guess it would be the Catholic Church. Except they have centuries of philology and interpretation detailing what it all means. And even then the Catholics don’t always have full orthodoxy since regional churches will absolutely incorporate syncretism to better mesh with local traditions. This is all over Latin America where Catholic Churches will have their own local saints or banquets or will use language that indigenous people may be more familiar with.

I don’t think a good gauge of a religion should be what their books literally say, since that never seems to matter over the material Earth we live on

yeah wtf am I reading here. “let’s trick religious people into thinking their forced labor is ok”

“let’s have state sanctioned interrogators investigating spiritual crimes”

“let’s literally make a cult but involve state authority”

This is like if someone wanted David Koresh to have his compound but also he’s the town sheriff.

25 years ago the Democrats won the election against Bush and then Gore gave up. They personally handed the presidency over to the republicans. Democrats like to lose even when they win. Then 21 years ago the Dems ran on a platform of “we’ll kill Muslims more efficiently than the Republicans.”

Democrats don’t want to win. Their primary purpose is to prevent a left from existing.

Also don’t forget Nancy Pelosi’s statement about the country needing a “strong republican party” last year. These people are ghouls and aren’t to be trusted.

Democrats commit genocide and pretend to be sad about it. Republicans commit genocide and post the 🤣 emoji

Vaxxed?

Doris Lessing’s Shikasta series is pretty good and it’s 5 books. They’re not that long or anything

Rabies is the funny feeling you get when you hold hands with your sweetheart

I’m not sure that the original chad/virgin meme was meant to be serious. It’s clearly silly.

I’m convinced Abrego Garcia is no longer alive

Rain Man had a job (I consider counting cards to be labor)

I’m an American who has been to Buenos Aires and it’s a genuine paradise compared to literally everywhere in the USA. Or maybe I was just too tourist brained, but Buenos Aires is gorgeous

Oh, now I get it. The bins aren’t there to be useful or sanitary. They’re to stop homeless people from going through trash.

America has weaponized basic public services

there are so many videos of charming families visiting the hippo enclosure at a zoo only to watch as the hippos blast diarrhea from their asses while helicoptering their tails to cut the turds into tiny chunks

it’s my favorite genre of film

I’m ace so the only comparable experience I have is the day I learned avocados are really yummy

This game is actually kinda noteworthy since it was the first time Akuma was a playable character. I also think it was the first game where Akuma had a name.
