That’s good, yeah I wasn’t really trying to go after Adam specifically here and I have not watched it, he gets so many good guests and I’m not up to date on his show for a few months now. His passion is really there, you can see it in the Ritchie Torres interview or that famous clip where Andrew Cuomo is like, “oh hate is such a strong word how can you invest that much energy into somebody” and Adam replies that Bush killed a million people.

That comment got me ngl. I’m not gonna go after Adam of all people on platforming discourse but I think it is always fair to point out that his guest is associating with all manner of far right folks and violent misogynists and still gets to be seen in polite company. Real lip of the funnel of the pipeline situation imo.

Getting particle accelerated into an HR meeting for having this as my our desktop background.

If you point out that Anne Frank died of typhus in a concentration camp you are a Jew hater.

Obligatory plug for Sid Meier’s Pirates!: Live the Life (PC, 2004).

I want to be clear, so you scalawags don’t get the wrong idea; I’m the best sailor, the best gunner, the best sword fighter, the best dancer & romancer, the best treasure hunter, the best bounty hunter, the best discover of Lost Cities. I don’t usually mess with the Indian villages, and their canoes are too fast for me to bother hunting but I won’t shy away from capturing one with a rumored treasure aboard. When I pull up on the Jesuits they tell me right where Baron Raymondo is sailing. I duel Jealous Fiances as a trifle, and Colonel Mendoza’s galleon is a speed bump in the waves.

I will lead my band of pirates and buccaneers into land battle against a fortified European garrison. Plunder the town, leave, and attack again. I’ll raise a country’s flag, get promoted with that country, then sack the town again for a rival power. I will coax a pirate captain to raid a nearby town, sink or capture the pirate interceptors, then betray the pirate ship I summoned. I will sword fight Marquis de Montalban on his ship without disabling his crew first. I fuck with this game, but I do not fuck around with this game.

Edit: I forgot to mention hunting the named pirates – 'cause they’re nothing to me but a convenient source of ships with preinstalled upgrades.

Yeah that’s pretty much what I’m referring to. I suppose I’m asking whether she should be thought of as having been trafficked vs. having informed consent; but by asking that I’m lowkey begging the question that there is even a difference when we’re talking about Epstein’s network.

Okay but does this make me homophobic for preferring a soft sideways fist bump with the fleshy part of my palm? I don’t want my little handies to sting from a macho high-five.

I like this, I relate to this from the opposite side of the spectrum; when I’ve tried to relate e.g. a series of events as a story on here, it is very dry and precise because I want it to be as clear as possible. LLMs don’t really write that way because they are meant to mimic human writing I suppose, but I can sound very terse and robotic.

What a timely reminder that those responsible for the state of things have thus far continued to evade consequences for their actions and are all part of one big beautiful team.

I wonder about the observation that Melania may have been introduced to Donald through the sort of model trafficking networks that have been in the news lately. Not that that absolves her of choosing to be in the Trump org but it’s an interesting angle to poke at.

Hey I didn’t respond in time while this thread was active but I wanted to say 1 - that sucks and solidarity to you! 2 - thank you for sharing this hard won knowledge which hopefully won’t be needed 3 - to compliment your clear description of a complicated-to-describe tactic vs multiple aggressors.

Thank you, I’ll try less next time!

I was watching the Superbowl Big Game muted because I was tuned in to Hasan-Felix-Noah-Pablo-bowl like a real sicko, but I saw that ad in the background and immediately clocked how fucked up it was. I’m genuinely encouraged that this seems to have been the mainstream reaction.

Those three jokers in the middle screenshot, Pip, Handle and Zoe; do they think they are not proletarian? I suppose they could be petite bourgeois but I’m going to vibe-infer that they are PMC who don’t see themselves as workers and think the proles are those dirty blue collar folks that work with their hands.

Hey bud, you should take some time off so you don’t get burnt out :) Also remember to get it approved months in advance and not at the same time other people will be out :-]

Nuh uh. You’re putting me on. That’s Adam’s real body? This makes everything so much only slightly less funny knowing that he’s in shape, you’ve ruined my Valentine’s Day. Edit: I will await confirmation that I’m not being photoshop mogged. Edit 2: Touched grass, day’s going better, thanks for sharing this cool Adam fact.

I figured you knew since you’re laying down the sweet science like that but I wanted to add for anyone else reading. Yeah I for real did not experience the kind of casual violence many people and many people here have encountered either in the home or on the schoolyard, in the neighborhood, or on the mean streets as adults, and I do not envy that experience.

Great explanation, don’t forget to plant those feet, push through the legs, and rotate those hips to really put your whole ass into the blow!

On the twitter threads the chuds that had their feelings hurt by this were really trying to play the “oh, you’re going to use violence over a simple difference of opinion?” card and all I can say is, we are not in 2016 anymore bruh.

Also a suspicious amount of chuds body shaming this guy who I’m going to bet looks similar to many of them. I don’t mean that in any body shaming way, I think they’re either unhappy at seeing their own reflection or they’re having a hard time processing that someone that looks like one of their lads is on the correct side.
