there’s a chinese exchange student in my composition class and we were being presented something about how you can use brackets to signify translation and there was chinese text on the screen and the prof said to him “what does that say?” and he deadpanned “i can’t speak chinese” and everyone sat there in dumbfounded silence and then the presenter clicked to show that the text literally said “i can’t speak chinese” with the most shit-eating grin on his face
turns this is claude giroux being very good at avoiding pucks and not, as i initially thought, claude giroux being VERY bad at stopping even just one of them
Tormenting children is the design, not the flaw. Secretary Nielson will go down in history as true evil. She was warned of the risks to children and sadistically kept the same plan.
Why is it we can’t seem to bring ourselves to call them concentration camps? That’s what they are. And why can’t we call them child refugees? Again, that’s what they are. We just murdered a child refugee in one of our concentration camps.
Mackenzie Bezos becoming the 5th richest person alive by doing nothing but playing the long game and somehow managing to swerve that Prenup with IRL Lex Luther is super dope, but what I care about most is what she ends up doing with that money.
Stealing from and dethroning the rich is cool as shit but ultimately means absolutely nothing to me if she doesn’t meaningfully redistribute that flow back into society. Which she probably won’t.
Also notice how fucked up the “he isn’t hurting the people he’s supposed to be hurting” mentality is, like it’s admitting you voted for him cause you thought he would be hurting people just the ones you don’t like
I have absolutely no sympathy for the people suffering under the shutdown who voted for Trump. They brought this on themselves when they knowingly voted for an egotistical, racist, sexist, wannabe despot because they thought he would hurt people they didn’t like. I feel bad for the people who don’t know if they will make it this month and did not vote for him because they deserve better. Trump supporters can stfu when his bullshit starts impacting them because we all told you this was coming. He cares about no one but himself and if they had listened to us, America would not be in the situation it is in now.
