I felt the same way, then I saw glowing reviewed, watched a few episodes and it’s good. I didn’t have to be. I didn’t expect it to be. Yet so far it is.

Everytime I see these dumb wojacks I definitely think the meme creator is 12 and have to back away from completely pre judging the whole meme. Thank you for this.

He was openly spreading propaganda against the lawful government too!

Really good book.

Yes I’m aware we have had some amendments. Ending slavery. Allowing women to vote. Direct election of Senators.

What about gerrymandering? Cap in the house leading to bad representation? The senate? I mean the senate still exists. States aren’t people like people pretended they were. So much has not changed.

Even Jefferson surmised it should be radically updated every few decades. I think he’d and many others would be pissed to realized we’re all held hostage by compromises that barely made sense at the time.

Man. Woman. TV. Camera.

Blue Curaçao and sprite

Definitely to be on the next iteration of this meme.

I welcome our new alien butt lords

Yeah I thought thirty was old when I was in high school. Adults of a given age have been getting healthier and healthier my entire life. Being childless in my early thirties is also a blessing. But come on. I had time and no money at twenty one. Now I have money and wisdom. And still healthy. Probably healthier than I was at 21.

Sure lots of people in their twenties are still poorly and may be unhealthy but there’s no magic age where life is over.

If she can win ~5 states I think she gets to make certain demands at the convention. Such as giving a speech or requiring a platform be written.

No Haley fan, but I am interested to see what or if her plan here is.

To pull it full circle: you average atheist does NOT want to commit genocides or ban churches or tell religious people not to teach their kids.

These are some broad brush strokes, dude.

I agree that modern and western atheism is sort of a dialectal to western religion and so perpetually tied to it in a way, that westerners don’t often see.

I agree that atheism as commonly portrayed online (actively and by its detractors alike) is militantly against Islam, all religions, etc.

But lots of atheists are actually humanists and not militantly out to root out all religion entirely.

Inside the US we are plagued by a religious fascism that yes, sadly, colors a looot of the online conversation about faith and atheism.

Atheists are not generally for eradicating all religions on the planet.

Remember when Barbie didn’t end with Will Farrells head in the guillotine?

Do I need more pixels? Or am I just missing Elon’s planes, the oil companies, the Koch family planes, the military industrial complex, the car industry,

Yeah I agree that there is a TAKE vs a SHARE.

Some of the reason cultural appropriation is a bad thing is due to capitalism. Taking something, even symbolically, for profit, is different than learning, experiencing and sharing.

Needs a good bottom text: am I a joke to you

Young Adult Fiction might be a good starting point for you. Just to flex the reading muscles. I’d second Enders Game and it’s sequels for the scifi, and for being sort of YA. Once you get the habit going I bet you’ll be ready to just keep going.
