Yeah, when people call MAGA a cult it’s not an exaggeration. These people are brainwashed to the core. They were parading around in diapers over a rumor that he might be incontinent! That’s not even remotely close to a normal reaction to unpleasant gossip. Normal would be simply dismissing it out of hand because at the end of the day there isn’t really any proof.

Farva : Give me a double bacon cheeseburger.

Burger Guy : [into mic] Double baco cheeseburger. It's for a cop.

Farva : What the hell's that all about? You gonna spit in it now?

Burger Guy : No, I just told him that so he makes it good.

[into mic] Burger Guy : Don't spit in that cop's burger.

Farva : Yeah, thanks.

Second Burger Guy : Roger, hold the spit.

Farva : Gimme a pie... apple.

Burger Guy : Want me to hold the spit? Hah, just kidding officer Farva.

Burger Guy : Want me to dimpa-size your meal for 25 cents?

Farva : Want me to punch-a-size your face, for free?

Burger Guy : It's only 25 cents, and look how much more you get.

Thorny : Look, kid, he doesn't want it.

Farva : I can handle this, Thorn. I don't want it!

Burger Guy : Uhh, right. Beverage?

Farva : Gimme a litre o' cola.

Burger Guy : What?

Farva : A litre o' cola!

Burger Guy : [into mic] Litrecola? Do we sell litrecola?

Thorny : Will you just order a large, Farva?

Farva : I don't want a large farva. I want a goddamn litre o' cola!

Burger Guy : I don't know what that is!

“Unfortunately, the coverage you paid for doesn’t extend to any situation where there is water in, on, or around your home,” said Pat Treacy, a claims adjuster at Countrywide Mutual Insurance who informed the Colemans that their policy had actually been voided the moment they first filled their bathtub or ran water from their sinks. “It’s industry standard, I’m afraid. Houses just aren’t meant to get wet. No insurance company anywhere would take on that kind of liability. If it’s possible to prove the house remained dry during the storm, and it just sort of fell down on its own, then maybe a case could be made for approving your claim.” Treacy went on to wish the Coleman family well and said he would keep an eye out for them on GoFundMe.

It’s laughable that MAGA chuds keep insisting the mainstream media is biased against Trump when the truth is he gets every advantage and benefit of the doubt imaginable. It’s not their fault he’s just a stupid piece of shit that fumbles everything despite their help.

Let’s be honest here, the mainstream media and cable news networks in particular have been carrying water for Trump since he descended that fucking escalator in 2015 and announced his racist platform. Nobody wants a second Trump presidency more than the mainstream media. There’s a reason ABC kept turning his mic back on during the debate but shut Kamala Harris down the one time she tried to speak outside of her allotted time. The major news outlets have failed us completely.

It's peak fragility. Trump also tried to get the DOJ to investigate Saturday Night Live for being mean to him.

“hands would be magenta” my guy you probably shoulda googled that word before committing to it.

Magenta is a purple-ish red color which on it's own doesn't really work as a reference to blood, but the author chose that specific color because it's also the name of Blue's friend next door, a dog named Magenta.

Perhaps you should've googled that before committing to your comment?

We know what these folks really want to say when they say DEI mayor,” he told The Banner. “Whether it is DEI or clown. They really want to say the N-word.

Yeah, this is typical chicken-shit conservative cowardice. Back in the day they wore hoods and robes, these days they hide behind avatars on social media, but they’re still playing the same games.

It’s important to call them out on these dog whistles every time though, no matter how childish or ridiculous their name calling may seem. Because there will always be bad faith actors, pathological contrarians, and useful idiots waiting in the wings to defend them by denying the implicit or explicit racism at the heart of these incidents. So it’s the responsibility of every decent person not to give up a god damn inch of wiggle room on the subject.

Everyone's (rightly) focusing on 1/6 so I'll go a different route and mention what I think was Pence's biggest moment of public humiliation and utter servility as VP:

Remember back in 2017 when Trump made Mike Pence to go to that Colts v. 49ers game then throw a racist temper tantrum and storm out when players took a knee during the national anthem? Lmao

How'd selling your soul to be Trump's VP work out for ya there Pence-y boy? Really gave your political career a boost, eh?

Because it's a gradual death-march to pricing out the ad free tiers entirely. Right now we're in the 'illusion of choice' phase. But ad free tiers will continue to become more and more expensive until one day corporations can turn around and justify removing them by blaming consumers. "We're getting rid of our ad-free plans due to lack of consumer interest." It won't be a lack of interest. It'll be a lack of affordability. And you can be damn sure once the ad-free plans are gone those ad based plans will end up priced at the rate for the old ad-free options. It's corporate gaslighting and it's happening right now.

“Last night, Trump is at a rally and he’s going on and on mentioning me several times as to why I didn’t take security during the Capitol riots. Why I didn’t handle January 6 better. I wasn’t even in DC on January 6. I wasn’t in office then,” Haley said.

“They’re saying he got confused. That he was talking about something else. That he was talking about Nancy Pelosi. He mentioned me multiples times in that scenario,” the former South Carolina governor added.

The closer we get to the election the more apparent it is that the stress of his mounting legal troubles has taken a considerable toll on him. He was mentally unfit for office in 2016 and 2020 too but the difference today is staggering. What she’s referring to was not a minor slip or getting tongue-tied.

There’s no way on earth he’ll debate Biden in the fall if he gets the nomination. He simply is not capable of doing so. This demented piece of shit doesn’t know where he is or who he’s running against. Reporters need to be asking him where he is during every single public appearance between now and the election. I have no doubt the failure rate would be near 100%.

Salmon is delicious and I totally get why bears get so hyped when they return to rivers to spawn.

Fuck yeah, I’m up to my furry little ears in salmon snacks y’all!” - Bears

Yeah, this isn't like a fast food burger that isn't quite as elegantly stacked as it appears on a tv commercial or something. This is clearly advertising a candy with a jack-o-lantern shaped cutout in the chocolate while selling you something different. It makes for a silly headline that's perfect for this community, but if she wants to sue them over it I'm gonna side with her on this one.

It's deceptive and corporations shouldn't be allowed to get away with crap like this. Because if we let them get away with this little lie they won’t stop there. They will only get bolder and more egregious.
