And whether you’re eating curry at your dinner table or fried chicken, things have gotten more expensive thanks to her policies.
Oh very interesting choice of contrasting meal. It isn’t contrasting Trump, who famously likes his hamberders, so I wonder what it is meant to contrast.
Folks in power are finding out the hard way that Donald can’t be everyone’s useful idiot at once.
Well and you have partition and reunification as well, which must play into it. Postwar Germany seems to have been partially defined by a series of unique and almost absurd culture shocks as Germany encountered successively different versions of itself.
I hope this discussion doesn’t offend the Germans among us. My interest is earnest and genuine, and as an American in 2024, more than simply academic.
Yeah but I think I’m okay with Germany’s stance on it, as I understand it at least.
It isn’t avoidance or denial, it seems to me, as much as total repudiation.
It strikes me as an appropriate response for a nation that is host to such an abomination, and worthy of emulation by any other nation that should ahem manage to make any similar mistakes.
It is interesting to experience my own increasing openness to this kind of humor as time passes.
For context, I’m an American, I was an adult when this happened, and have worked for one of the involved airlines since before the attacks, but was nowhere near NYC and didn’t know anyone directly impacted.
But even still, probably 5 years ago I’d have been a little skeeved out my this. Now I chuckle.
Just interesting.
I got a TBI from this take.
Here, try this quote:
To clear the air, my son, Aiden Clark, was not murdered. He was accidentally killed by an immigrant from Haiti. This tragedy has been all over this community, the state and even the nation. But don’t spin this towards hate
Seems a bit reductive. Everything boils down to money if you’re content to look no higher up the hierarchy of needs.
Trump and co are spreading the lie that Haitan refugees in Springfield Ohio are stealing family pets and eating them.
Just as an aside, the GOP Twitter posted an AI generated image of a cat and a goose looking scared with a caption like “protect our cats and ducks” and cats I get, sure, but I’m supposed to believe eating duck is somehow crazy?
Duck? Of L’orange fame?
Insanely, if he were capable of forming and articulating coherent thoughts, he could have actually landed an attack that would have turned off some swing voters, but he was basically frothing with impotent rage by that point.
Relevant survey response:
“14. As President will you use your executive authority to ensure that transgender and non- binary people who rely on the state for medical care — including those in prison and immigration detention — will have access to comprehensive treatment associated with gender transition, including all necessary surgical care? If yes, how will you do so? Yes X No ⬜ Explanation (no more than 500 words): It is important that transgender individuals who rely on the state for care receive the treatment they need, which includes access to treatment associated with gender transition. That’s why, as Attorney General, I pushed the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to provide gender transition surgery to state inmates. I support policies ensuring that federal prisoners and detainees are able to obtain medically necessary care for gender transition, including surgical care, while incarcerated or detained. Transition treatment is a medical necessity, and I will direct all federal agencies responsible for providing essential medical care to deliver transition treatment.”
Only losers blame the ref.
A famous quote from a famous movie: “I am Spartacus”
This was originally a setup for an inflation joke but after I posted it I checked and realized it would be closer to 6 with inflation. Ah well.
I am literally - and I’m 100% serious - pooping at work right now.
Highly recommended.
That just means they are probably less relevant skills.
Hey speak for yourself!
And if he wins, it will just be more of the same forever.
