The overton window’s been hauled so far into the red sea, facts are now liberal.

If one were to check left-leaning publications’ fact checking records, they’d find a fuck ton of media labelled “Heavily biased” with spotless reports for authetic journalism. Take one tippy-toe step to the right of neutral and it gets awful hard to find the truth.

Where’s your shrimp?

She’s on her tank.

Don’t you mean in her tank?

Even the most inexperienced cooks should at least have a gar licker and a spice weasel.

I love the way you put it in that last line.

Early abrahamic philosophers go over the god question like this, basically saying that if God/Yahweh/Allah exists and is all-powerful and doesn’t stop suffering, then he can’t possibly be good. Other religious philosophers figured life is a soul building experience, therefore the net good of making positive choices is greater than if everything was perfect by default.

The way the problem is set up in Pluribus is insanely well done.

Tell me more.

Jesus Christ. Can you tell us more?

How did they fuck up dying?

Can you say where/what they called themselves?

What was the most batshit crazy part of it?

The dog is a turtle.

Time to come destroy the white house again — oh wait. They just did it themselves.

It’s okay! We still have most of the uranium and our reactors make plutonium as a by-product. We don’t need to stock nuclear cakes when the pantry is overflowing and the oven is pre-heated.

Yay! More Auroras!

Fuck, I love the sun. I hope it kills us all.

Oh my god I want one.

Okay, so, I’ve heard this before, which leads me to ask this completely earnest question out of genuine scientific curiosity, but have you ever sucked a dick that wasn’t your own?

Because I can’t imagine someone with no inclination would like it very much. Ergonomically and logististically — it’s a bitch, and harder to jive with sans any experience in the field. On the other hand someone who enjoys sucking dick on the regular might get more out of the activity.

Plus mosquitoes.

This one is too slow :(

Dealer’s choice.

Thanks. I butchered a line from this poem: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/44131/a-valediction-forbidding-mourning

Unless he said it was Shamu the orca he doesn’t know shit about the antichrist.

Yep. Especially since some indigenous communities historically didn’t consider lineage that big of a deal, adopting friends and foreigners under the same umbrella as their kids.

The short story Quantum by Nick Medina is a visceral, disturbing take on it.

I didn’t use reddit much outside of a few niche communities, it had a repetitive brand of humor and weird dogpiling I didn’t jive with. Here, I find people genuinely want to engage, with moderation suited to a more mature crowd, at least in the communities I hang around.

There are culture shifts between instances and communities, so I try to have a look around before I speak up. Some places you gotta lurk to get a feel, others are a free for all. I stepped on a few toes while I got my footing — just read the sidebars if you want to avoid that.

Browsing by subscribed is the best experience, in my opinion. I see every instance so ALL is a cacophony of back alley circus heretics if I don’t tailor my feed.
