What the – and I can't stress this enough – fuck is wrong with conservatives?
They like gay softcore?
Nothing wrong with that though. Well, except according to conservatives themselves anyhow
To answer your previous question, it’s the hypocrisy, the need to feel better than others because of the subconscious knowledge that they are temporary pushes them to positions that don’t align with the morality of the religion they mostly espouse but don’t follow. That sort of cognitive dissonance creates weird ass shit like this, although I’m going to believe without looking that this was ai generated rather than someone spent artistic time creating it, because that would make me really sad
Oh yeah the picture's definitely AI-generated, just look at eg. the two-headed Trump on the left or the trans Trump who's 2nd from the right
AI doesn't generate things without prompts. Somebody spent a lot of time prompting an AI, and this was the best outcome. There were far more horrific creations that never saw the light of day, like a failed Frankenstein experiment.
I can't decide if I like "top-surgery Trump" with the bikini top or "2-headed ogre Trump" with the dunlap.
Kinda looks like top-surgery Alito 🤷🏼♀️
Lead paint.
Diabetes and high blood pressure have negative effects on the cognitive abilitys... So blame this all on Fast food and the asshole that put lead in gasoline.
My hot take: if you were alive while lead was legally allowed in gasoline, you shouldn't be allowed to be in office.
Hot take, you aren't allowed to vote for the first 18 years... You shouldn't be for the last as well. And same goes for presidency, is it 30 or 40? Anyway same there.
35 for president
So 35 min and by statistic (~80 years lifespan) 45 max
Sounds ok to me.
It should be 35-65 for the President. Which means the last time they can run is when they are 61.
Leaded gasoline is still used as aviation fuel.
Conveniently enough, aircraft are mostly in the sky where the general population isn't exposed to their exhaust, and most people don't own an airplane or handle aviation fuel
There are still people living around airfields, where the engines idle waiting for a runway, or run at full throttle furing takeoff.
Are you seriously this thick or are you just pretending?
Where do you think the lead goes? Is it lighter than air? Will it float higher? Or will it fall?
Do you think there's nearly as much lead exposure from aviation fuel for older prop planes compared to literally all ground cars using leaded fuel?
Of course not. Why would you think I'm trying to make that point?
Given the knowledge of the time it increased performance and fuel economy. It wasn't until decades later we realized it was horrible to humans and we started to phase it out.
I mean, asbestos was seen as a "wonder" material for a long time before we understood how terrible it was. Hell they used asbestos snow in wizard of oz.
Nah the inventor himself knew it, the guy knew. The dangers of lead where well known at that point.
Thomas Midgley was a fucking piece of shit who absolutely 100% knew and lied about it to everyone. He is the same piece of shit who invented ozone layer destroying CFCs. Absolute monster of a person.
Probably republican too.
Undoubtedly a fan of Ayn Rand.
Ancient greeks and romans knew both lead and asbestos caused health issues though
...everything? It's probably a shorter list as to what's not wrong with them.
