Don’t forget that if you do vote you’re pro-genocide, which means I don’t have to think listen to you. Also if voting changed anything they’d make it illegal. What, they’re trying to? See, doesn’t do anything. Wasted effort. General strike or bust. Discord counts as organizing right?

Yeah but you gotta admit theres something distinctly biblical about these tribulations, pardon the pun

I know it’s a distraction but I abhor the way the man speaks.

“I was informed this morning by the joint chiefs of staff that at so and so time in such and such operating theater we lost communication with blahblah asset. All US service members were recovered safely woth no loss of life. We are committed to peace, but if this was, as we believe it to be, a violation of the ceasefire agreement, this provocation cannot go unanswered. I am urgently seeking communications with the leadership of the IRGC and am directing our forces in the region to move to a state of enhanced readiness.”

• serious
• sounds like something a Sorkin character would say
• leaves diplomatic buffer in case it turns out something other than an Iranian missile caused the loss of equipment

“Army told me IRAN shot down our very fancy helicopter in operating theater, amazing pilots safe but now im mad. I’m gonna bomb them back >:( >:( >:(”

• unserious
• less room for backtracking
• sounds fucking stupid

That’s the american dream right there.

If I was a religious type I would think God was mad at us for electing this dude

What a cute crow

Ironically when it comes to the nature of God Muslims and Mormons couldn’t be farther apart. Like Christians, Mormons believe in the divinity of Christ, i.e. that he is the Son of God (or “Heavenly Father”), but they reject the Trinity, i.e. that God is one substance in three parts*. Mormons instead believe that God is three separate beings of one purpose and will. Muslims are more like Jews in that they don’t think he was the Son of God, but where Muslims think he was a prophet and the Messiah, Jews are… indifferent? Maybe they think he was some smart guy, or maybe he didn’t exist. Nice story, who cares basically. Muslims reject the Divinity of Christ because they reject the Trinity because the oneness of God is a core of their beliefs.

*the Trinity gets complicated when you start asking different denominations or even different congregations about it. it is a divine mystery, you’re not actually supposed to get it. i didn’t make that up, that is what a lot of christian doctrine actually teaches. but they still argue about it. religion is wild

I checked with the poopsmith and while he says he can’t offer you his skills hes proud of you for being number one at going number one.

“Why the hell do people keep letting ducks loose on my bus?”

“the back” is a distribution center a couple towns over, because modern retail is a tightly integrated and logistics heavy industry. How don’t you know this Carol? This has been the standard for like 40 years CAROL

fantastic, now they can tell which specific parts of the jeep ad get my blood pumping

HSPA+ is not 4G. It has a max theoretical throughput of 168Mbit. It was sold as 4G. Same with Wimax and earlier LTE implementations.

Interesting how similar this is at first glance to Kerboscript. Neat!

They’re saying you’re being way too optimistic.

mistakes like selling the evolutionary upgrade of the previous generation as the revolutionary next generation? That kind of mistake?

Never forget that the original 4G spec promised gigabit.

Yeah no we got that

They say they’re gonna fix it with something called “AI”

Are you one of those people who wants to go 30 over everywhere you go, and fuck anyone with the gall to get in your way?

Not how it works at all
