If Tommy twatting Robinson is celebrating your policy announcement, you immediately pull the breaks and reverse in the other fucking direction guys. Anything less is just doing the job of the far right for them.

Look, NPCs (or the PC) mentioning something interesting that the player might miss is actually not a bad idea; especially for someone who loathes puzzles, like I do.
(And don't start with "short attention span for kids these days, because I'm 53)
But it can be done too much, and in the wrong way.

She tricked her way to being a billionaire by doing a voice that sounds like when I pretend to be a man, dressing like Steve Jobs and saying she invented a way we can live forever like Kendall Roy in that shareholder presentation. All coz old men said "blonde lady". People died coz men are dumb.

The worst part of Bubbagate is that people that claim to be progressive will suddenly post tons of homophobic memes "because it's okay and just a joke because it's about Trump".

Reminder that Mastercard is a threat to society.

Conservatives (as in conservative people, not necessarily specific political parties) are ideologically inclined to hate foreigners. It is, after all, part of being conservative; to abhor and fight change and always wanting to go backwards.
This is why conservatism often lead to misery and hatred.

Illegal migration isn't tearing this country apart, but our obsession with it is. It's an obsession fuelled by our media and politicians. Both profit from blowing the problem out of all proportion. It's been happening for decades, but never more so than now

As a Swede I find the concept of a "government shutdown" fascinating. The idea that core functions of the state stops working because "Parliament / House" is in disagreement seems to be an exceptionally bad design for a country, tbh.

Look, I don't know what American Border patrol agents have, training wise, I just know that for standard police, US police forces are literally the worst trained in the western world.
Listen to this Border Patrol agent cry about how he's going to be DOXXED after being arrested for drunkenly barging into a woman's restroom with a loaded gun, demanding a date from the woman inside, and then punching the arresting officers.

A former career DOJ guy told me a few weeks ago that prior to Trump, the FBI was the varsity team, DHI and ICE were junior varsity, and Border Patrol were like a drunken office softball team. And under Trump, the drunk softball guys are now in charge.

3 years ago today, Riot Games offered me a job making more money than I ever thought I’d make in my life. I had 19 interviews over 2.5 months to get it. Partner and I were moving to LA for it. I put in notice at my job and apartment.
2 weeks later they rescinded the offer due to “headcount issues”.

Fascists gotta fascist. Lying is playbook chapter 1, paragraph 1.
broadview mayor katrina thompson blames today’s brutality on “out-of-town protesters” who’ve “chosen their fists” over their voices.
does this look like cops “protecting [protesters’] free speech”?

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

I am following a "DnD nerd" playing BG3 on Youtube and I feel sorry for her.
I mean not in a bad way but she is EXCEPTIONALLY paranoid about everything, missing full quests because she never trusts anyone and I keep thinking "her tabletop DM must be AWFUL".
