Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

My coworker is at a hotel in Hollywood and by sheer coincidence so are a handful of Golden Bachelor contestants and they've invited him clubbing. We're all in the group chat encouraging him to make interesting decisions.

The folks defending that sort of antisocial behavior really want it to be ok to say terrible things to and about other people, as long as they are angry and can screen their vitriol behind plausible deniability. It's playground bully behavior any child would recognize.
What "clarification" is needed, the reason is the same reason we've been discussing the whole thread now!
Just don't post things that could be interpreted as death threats! It's really not hard! I promise!

The number of people defending it as "just a meme, chill out bro" is higher than I hoped.
That's the fucking point, it's a gotcha if you engage with the semantics. There's no way to win except say "I see the intent behind the vagueness and I refuse to allow such toxic behavior, real threat or not"

James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

I'm willing to humor every person that says "primary them all!" on one condition: they have to support the eventual winner with their whole chest. No more mealy-mouthed bullshit about "your candidate" being screwed. If you want unconditional party support, you'd best be willing to give it.

If retaking the Senate isn't important, it means you're ok losing more seats to republicans, and buddy, that makes you indistinguishable from a republican.
anyway if dems think I'm gonna forget this shit in 5 months, they're wrong. if they think I'm gonna forget it in 5 years, they're wrong. they have fully convinced me that purging the party of these inept losers in the senate is more important than retaking the senate in the next election cycle

This attitude about churches is baffling and WAY more prevalent than I expected. Having tax-exempt status doesn't make you a charity ATM for anyone who expresses a need. Churches are allowed to screen for scammers. They are not required to give cash to everyone who calls.
Because they are tax exempt. Lose the tax exemption and they can contribute or not to whoever they want.

This person's definition of "purity tests" involves very basic measures to make sure the church isn't getting scammed, something you or I are allowed to do but mysteriously churches are not.
Apparently calling churches with a fake story about a baby to "test their faith" is *not* a purity test...

But I'm curious, do you donate to every account that comes along on this app asking for money? If not, why not? And why aren't churches allowed to use that same discretion?

Saw a pair of bike shoes online that run 2 grand, so that’s something that’s happening.

Welp, looks like an Axios article is going to make this app unusable for the next while, see y'all on the flip side.

On TikTok there's a woman doing a fairly shitty scam operation. She's cold-calling churches around the US and lying about having a baby to catch them in "gotcha" moments when they kindly treat her like a scammer. It makes me wish we could strip TikTok accounts from users that harass other people.

This is like going to Disney World and getting in an argument with the hologram of Walt Disney and threatening it, then backing off because you're worried the hologram might kick you out of the park.
If this is a serious question, I wanted to see how it handled US v Soviet history. The result was worse than I had even expected. I decided not to block it because I assume that would nuke me in the algorithm.

This is amazing because he just acknowledges that Dems are fighting for people to keep their healthcare. It doesn't matter what the percentage is, ANYONE who hears this message and is struggling to make ends meet will know which side is trying to help them.
Thune: Democrats are fighting for a fraction of a fraction, for a tiny percentage of the small percentage of Americans who are on Obamacare.
