Speaking of history, I can’t say I’d relish hollering alongside people who’ve only studied it on TikTok.

Never seen a more perfect example of the kind of smug self-superior liberal in my life

A surprisingly literal example of NIMBYs creating their own downfall

My favorite recent example of that was a Politico article about members of the DNC becoming worried Biden won’t win re-election. I decided to wade into /r/politics for the first time in probably 5 years just to see their reaction. Every comment dismissing the polling numbers and painting the article as hyped-up nonsense for clicks. From the same people who love sharing any poll that says “X% of Republicans won’t vote for Trump”

Hate when my stutter makes me mix up world leaders

I don’t think documentation is really necessary when pretty much all media in the US portrays white, young, thin, slightly athletically toned, clear-skinned, white-toothed, symmetrical-faced people with societally-approved matching gender characteristics as “attractive”. Characters who exhibit those traits are portrayed/coded as attractive, and they are the people put in front of the camera on things like the news. Just saying “attractive” when talking about someone with those features is basically saying that anyone who does not have those features is inherently not attractive, when in reality many people have different opinions on what they find attractive.

Do we have an Oregon Trail emoji? It wouldn’t surprise me
