…with a stiff cocktail.

ccunning ,

Wanna bet the coup leader is tried and convicted before they have a chance to run for president?

ccunning ,

Just need to swap SatansMaggotyCumFart with Jimmydoreisalefty.

@SatansMaggotyCumFart is simply irreverent; not a troll.

ccunning ,

There is no reason to keep the order in place for witnesses, for example.

I’d argue there is plenty of reason to keep it in place for witnesses until all appeals have played out…

ccunning ,

The trial is over, and there will be no more testimony

I see - I assumed wrongly they would need to testify again in a retrial if an appeal was won.

Wasn’t there also talk of declaring a mistrial at some point? Would they testify again in that case?

ccunning ,

Frankly, he is supremely lucky to have not had an "accident" already.

More “lucky” to be working for Russia instead of against it.

ccunning ,

Forced troll feeding. Brilliant idea…

ccunning ,

As of now 19 folks responded with upvotes. The lack of comments is because you nailed it and nothing else needed to be said.

ccunning ,

Just saw your edit…

…but I did explain…

…so I’m confused…

ccunning ,

they've lost 20 years out of the last 24 years

Where are those numbers from? Presidential elections from the last 24 years don’t add up. Are you only counting election years? Or something other than presidential elections?

Probably to bring French to the forefront after divorcing Bill.

Better question would be why she kept Gates but that’s probably for recognition purposes, I’d guess.

ccunning ,

From her Wikipedia article:

According to The Wall Street Journal, Melinda Gates had been meeting with divorce lawyers since at least October 2019 after Bill's business dealings with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein became public, and she had warned him about associating with Epstein as early as 2013.

ccunning ,

You asked for context; not evidence.

ccunning ,

What if the SCOTUS has gone bananas at the same time?

ccunning ,

So is this why I’m able to receive new emails from the Google Group I joined with my non-Gmail account, but not actually access the Google group to see past messages to the group?

ccunning ,

They’re doing Watchmen again?

ccunning ,

Huh - I had assumed the gag order would have been lifted at the conclusion of the trial. Continuing it through sentencing seemed punitive, but extending it beyond the conclusion of any pending appeals makes sense and seems perfectly fair.

ccunning ,

It should be extended beyond sentencing until any appeals have been concluded.

ccunning ,

Weird that they misspelled their name on the banner.

Am I missing something here?

ccunning ,

Huh - I had no idea:

ccunning ,

What is wrong with the other 20%? Do they not know what “increased” means?

ccunning , (edited )

I achieved FT WFH during the pandemic and moved from a VHCOL area to a LCOL. We make nearly double the median income for our new area and our food costs have increased so much our discretionary spending has basically stayed the same as before the move.

If we hadn’t had the opportunity to move, I don’t know how we’d be getting by now.

ccunning ,

What if the poster has achieved notoriety?

ccunning , (edited )

Sadly, I don't think Trump supporters care about the felon status at all

If they did they wouldn’t be supporters.

It’s those who are undecided or on the fence Biden’d be hoping to sway.

ccunning ,

I think Biden’s approach it probably gonna work on them better than yours…

ccunning ,

I guess that makes Bill-ary kissin’ cousins…

ccunning ,

I think you didn’t realize this was a joke but that is my fault. I’m sorry…

ccunning ,

I don’t believe sun screen is concerningly harmful (to humans; coral reefs may disagree), but I find a lightweight UPF rated long sleeve shirt and wide brim hat way more comfortable. And cheaper when you follow dermatologist recommendations for sunscreen application.

ccunning ,

True! Too many nested parenthetical can make the comment hard to read (even though it’s my preference (most of the time)) though 🙃

ccunning ,

Most of my wish list have nothing to do with safety because I'm a straight cis white guy and so my experience of Mastodon is that its userbase is painfully anodyne.

This sounds so backwards to me. Do you know how you could create an environment for a less painfully anodyne userbase?

ccunning ,

Can’t you just create the community you desire?

ccunning ,

Extending the traditional trigger’s function by adding more and more complex Rube Goldbergian designs just moves where and how the trigger starts.

ccunning ,

“I was not aware of that”

ccunning ,

That headline doesn’t really do the article justice…

ccunning ,

You can. There is a capital ‘R’ in ‘Replying’ (or ‘Ross’ in the previous message if you think it’s a different font) for reference.

ccunning ,

Likewise with Palestinian and Hamas.

People seem to struggle so hard with this but it’s so obvious I have to assume it’s willful ignorance.

ccunning ,

They were recalled because the level of Capsaicin has caused symptoms of poisoning in younger individuals

Is it really “poisoning” if some subset of consumers can’t eat something? Ok. It’s poisoning. Y’all really focusing on this part of my comment. We all know “the dose makes the poison” though. So “poisons” are clearly allowed to be sold as food.

Like if some Danes are severely allergic to shellfish are they going to pull all crabs off the market?

If it’s temporary until labeling standards can be defined and implemented, that makes sense to me but just blanket removal seems like an overreaction.

ccunning ,

His geopolitical worldview is disappointingly Kissinger-esque.

That’s a surprising take for some one on Nixon’s list of political opponents

ccunning ,

In a sub (community?) called PoliticalMemes I assumed it was a fake article…

Seems to be the rule in a lot (most? All?) of the news subs. In those cases I just report them for breaking the community rules…

ccunning ,

The parallels to Vietnam are…what’s the opposite of unending? Unstarting?

ccunning ,

I absolutely love Chatuchak market, but man that place is a disaster in waiting. It’s a miracle this wasn’t more tragic than it was.

ccunning ,

Now that we've had him for four years, and he was worse than we expected...

He far exceeded my expectations.

ccunning ,
  • Massive infrastructure bill
  • Student loan forgiveness
  • Marijuana rescheduling

There’s plenty more, but my expectation was for him to not be Trump which he has thoroughly succeeded at. The rest is icing.

The biggest things he’s disappointed on, Trump disappoints on too…:

  • Palestine
  • Being too fucking old

…so it’s easy to see how that on balance he has exceeded expectations…

ccunning ,

Yes. Being better than Trump is a low bar.

Are you confused about what’s happening here?

ccunning ,

Any boomer/Gen x fox news viewer will now just think Donald did it and look no further.

Nothing like those Millennial Fox News viewers

ccunning ,

Even after reading the whole thing (I think I need a shower), I’m not even sure what they’re mad about.

    Ok - If this is where you’re coming from, why are you boosting this shit?
