Airport bars are always offering shots with their beers. Like every time Ive sat at one.
Another place that comes to mind are the little hotel convenience stores in Vegas casinos. Usually those are a tall boy of shitty cheap beer and then you can select an airplane bottle of liquor to go with it for a "combo deal".
This fucking lie ended a conversation (that started about plumbing of all things!) between myself and my father with me screaming at him for being racist and him hanging up on me saying "Enjoy your fucking liberal life. Im hanging up now. Love you. Bye."
As a rule, I do NOT speak politics with my family because theyre HUGE MAGAts and Im the exact opposite. But my father is one who HAS to bait me. He just...its in his fucking DNA code or something. And usually I grit my teeth through it, but I couldnt this time.
Ughhhhh this pisses me off so much because I really thought that he would snort and roll his eyes at THIS lie at least. But no. He unironically believes this shit. Its fucking dangerous.
Omg I would fucking LOVE IT if he became known as Coach over that Alabama Fuck who held up key military promotions in Congress because the DoD put out guidance saying women seeking abortions in restricted states could take convalescent leave to do so. He wants so badly for everyone to think of him as "Coach". Fuck yeah Walz, dont let him have that!
Our boarder gets the most photogenic pictures of our dogs, I swear.
I mean, I kind of like the fact that he's flexing paying his taxes to other billionaires, signaling that he's better than them for doing so. It would be kind of nice if every billionaire started flexing on one another like this and started trying to one up one another to showcase "whose the better person" sort of thing. Pipe dream, I know, but a girl CAN dream after all.
A group of retired Generals/Admirals are the ones who convinced Congress to repeal DADT back in 2011 so our LGBTQ+ brethren could openly serve.
I understand that the entire Government has changed since then, and it's an entirely different branch of the Government that they're petitioning, but fuck, this gives me hope.
These people do still have some sort of influence, and they're attempting to use it for good. That makes me happy.
Man, OPs caption unlocked a core memory I have of calling my high school boyfriend at 858 pm, and talking on the phone with him for about 2.5 hours before he got notified that he was under 10 mins left for the month.
We had thought he was only going to lose 2 of his minutes 😭.
As horrendous as this story is (and yes, this man does deserve to get compensation for what he's been through), I agree.
This feels like the very subversive thing that someone with a nefarious mindset would pull to push vulnerable people more into the "manosphere" type mindset.
It may seem innocuous at first, "OH! It's just a user sharing a story that factually happened!"
But it's the pulling up of an old article about an enraging topic while women's rights are being stripped away/we're seeing a huge surge of Andrew Tate-style influences being held up by the younger male generation. This type of stuff absolutely normalizes hatred/mistrust of women by the redpill/blackpill fans.
From the article: "Also in 2022, a Michigan Republican candidate said he told his daughters “If rape is inevitable, you should just lie back and enjoy it.”
I do not think I've ever read a statement from someone that has pissed me off so fucking quickly. Someone needs to check on this man's daughters and fucking take them from him, forcibly if necessary, ASAP, and then put them with a family who legitimately loves them.
FUCK I HATE THIS TIMELINE.
And they claim that they "don't hate women they just love babies! <3 <3"
I am disgusted, but not surprised.
Imagine being an American so privileged and revered you get paid to live in Italy in one of the most historically iconic places on Earth...
... and you throw it all away so you can hate on gay people and vaccines. Wtf.
YES OMG GET FUCKED TUBERVILLE, YOU FUCKING PRICK!
I've said before I was terrified of the DoD capitulating to this fucking sorry excuse for a human being, but I'm glad to see his actions have had negative consequences for him specifically.
Ugh, even if this wasn't done to protect the younger generation of women joining the armed forces, I'll take it. It's one less location that they can be sent to (yes of course Maxwell exists, as well as Scott in MO and alllllllll the fucking bases in Texas and Florida, so it's a small win, but it IS a win)
Bought a Jackery a few years ago for camping purposes, and I love it. We've never drained it completely from 100% charge. It had been sitting in the house, off for months, and we needed it this past weekend for camping. Pulled it out on TGiving day to find it was still @ 77%. Couldn't find the charger because we recently moved, but we had the solar panels. It was charged back up to 100% within a few hours, which shocked me.
Its definitely overpowered for what we currently use/need it for, but we also lived through the 2021 Snowpocalypse in Texas, so I reasoned that it would come in handy if we ever ran into a similar situation again.
