I got another crisp fiver

I have a periscopic girlfriend. She sticks her little eyeball up the to the surface so I can stay under the water cruising along and fire nukes and kill the Russians and Germans

Yeah, I ride it every day and I’ve never actually seen a fight in my car.

Why the fuck is this woman still tormenting us all with her existence

I don’t think it’s a book on accents, its a phonetic book for learning English. I have one for learning French, it’s in English phonetic to pronounce French words. Just a different way to learn the language.

lol we don’t have oversight on our cops (I mean, technically we do. The FBI and internal affairs are supposed to be a counterbalance to cops’ power, but that is absolutely not how it works in reality). And I’d be willing to bet at least 60% of the license plates in this video belonged to cops. It’s wild. In nyc, walk but any precinct and all the personal cars you see are very likely to have some fuckery like this with their plates.

The move, especially in this city, to speed cameras and red light cams etc has allowed the cops to not have to pay attention. They get paid more than ever to do way less work. They’re sent to stand on subway platforms on their phones and hide by turnstiles trying to catch people jumping them and skipping the $2.90 fare.

I think as a German you’d be disgusted the way things actually work here

Right? RDR2, TLOU 1 & 2…there are others that are slipping my ind now but a well told story is a well told story. These people all saying they never cry over stories in games are disturbing if you ask me lol

Jokes about genocide are my favorite. It’s this sort of internet attitude of who can find the best one liner that makes people so goddamn complacent. We read news about people literally being slaughtered and starved and people are still trying to make fuckin jokes.

I’m fully convinced this framing and attitude is why we aren’t doing a goddamn thing about our generation’s fucking holocaust.

Edit: I’m not going to be able to respond to anyone, but I will stand my ground. Maybe I was a little annoyed, but my point remains. If we are all consuming news via social sources like this nowadays (which, we are), and people read horrifying news—when the first thing they see in the responses is some joke about the situation, it absolutely blunts the emotional impact. People complain about how no one is doing anything? Maybe it’s because of the way we discuss the problem. People jump to make the stupid joke and that being the first thing seen after the ongoing news of horrific genocide and starvation, it absolutely has an effect on the way we start to react to this news. As time has gone on, if all we’re offering is “gallows humor” in response to genocide, then what the fuck. I would contend that this isn’t the form gallows humor has taken historically. Because the format has changed. I dunno. It just seems, if the world isn’t gonna respond to this genocide, literally the least we can do is not offer “gallows humor” as literally the only response. Just one persons opinion. Which you all don’t like, but hey. Someone’s gotta say it

We need a similar ending here.

I just want a quote.

Hey, I have a modest lil proposal…
