@time_heal_all @mattxiv @bitchmunk Will they say “Poor kids are just are smart as white kids”?

@mattxiv @bitchmunk The Republican Party of today will tell you they free’d the slaves before calling you a slur.

and this is why education is important because the republican party under donald trump and the republican party under abraham lincoln are two very different things

@mattxiv I wonder what this former Democrat senator did with his white sheets on his days off? Fun fact democrats flooded his funeral and praised him.

@mattxiv Actually not much has changed with the Democratic Party. The behavior is on brand with your history 😉

@mattxiv Even Malcolm X warn Black Americans about Democrats because their main goal is to destroy black families and America as we know it. The parties never switched

@RepThomasMassie The mass effort that would take goes beyond reason. Bribery and racketeering go a long way in the modern world.

If America would embrace capitalism and reject cronyism in health care, agriculture, military contracting, insurance, media, technology, and banking, we would experience a renaissance unprecedented in human history.

@cnh_ic @BookwyrmRachel Did he have foreknowledge the ship would be rigged with explosives? If not, then “No. No he didn’t.”

@BookwyrmRachel You know what in hindsight technically Matt sent the entire ship crew to their deaths

I have some questions about the North Star ship. It was carrying 30 tons of military ordinance, so not its entire cargo. Only Fisk, Buck, the captain and the first mate knew about the weapons. Why was Matt brutally beating up the entire crew? What was their crime? 🤔

@Txp_RBI_Xctuxl Yes. That show was brilliant. I hope to one day see the original subtitled version.

I was thinking about what sparked my fascination with Japan, and I think Starblazers was the catalyst. Starblazers was the English dubbed version of the Japanese cartoon Space Battleship Yamato. The samurai and ninja movies and games added fuel to the fire, but it started with Starblazers.

Remember when dnd was about killing monsters and ruling the world? Not a sexual therapy session. I hate critical role for what they did to my hobby

@Maelzel_opening Yes.

アメリカ兄貴たちはBBQの時にどんな酒飲むんやろ

@TheAliceSmith I am, personally. an atheist who doesn’t like the idea of churches being turned into mosques (in any significant numbers). So, that’s a “No” on attending church.

So, how many of you who complain about churches getting turned into mosques bothered to attend a church today?

This is the best takedown of "No Kings" I've seen yet. "You just hate what you're told to hate..." "I just wish the anti-authoritarian energy was present during actual tyranny." 🔥

@TiffaniMarie483 Don’t. Just say “I get it. I’d be anxious about it too, if it weren’t for my faith. Like it or not, comfort is one of the inarguable advantages of having religious faith.” Because, as an atheist, this is all demonstrably true.

My boomer, liberal, atheist, MIL lives with us now. I actually love her very much. She’s been having anxiety about death lately and I so badly want to share the gospel with her, but she’s so anti-Christian that it just makes her mad. What’s my move here?

I think enough time has passed to say that Charlie Cox has established as definitive of a performance of a comic book character as we’ve ever seen. I would absolutely put his Daredevil in the same league as Reeves’ Superman or Jackman’s Wolverine. I mean it.

@ianmiles What has become of Britain?

You’re allowed to wave Hamas flags. Hezbollah flags. Flags of the USSR. IRGC flags. ISIS flags. Gay pride flags. But don’t you dare wave the British flag or a police officer will confiscate it and arrest you for incitement and racism. Welcome to the UK.

🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Iranian woman goes BERSERK on a smug white liberal who is supporting the Islamic regime "Convince me of WHAT? Of R*PE?! Of women not having rights?! I am Iranian, I've been imprisoned by that regime!" "Iranians are ASKING for the bombs! Iranian youth are asking to be bombed, and you are standing here SUPPORTING a terrorist regime! What are you DOING supporting a terrorist regime?!" *Lib spouts off about Palestine* "This has NOTHING to do with Palestine. This is about a terrorist regime in MY COUNTRY." "I can't even go see my father's grave!!" Mad props to this woman! White liberals are clueless, all over the world. H/t @patriot_apranik

@TheAliceSmith Do you think there is no such thing, or do you just dislike these types of plots?

Every time I hear some woke screenwriter or reviewer talk about the need for “morally complex” plots or “morally grey” heroes, I think of this quote from Nietzsche. “They muddy the water, to make it seem deep.”

To my American friends, I want to speak from the heart, because this moment truly moved me as a Japanese citizen. When President Trump made that Pearl Harbor joke, it wasn’t just humor to us. It felt like a weight I’d carried my whole life was suddenly lifted. My chest tightened, and honestly, tears came close. For 80 long years, we Japanese have lived under a heavy shadow — the constant expectation to apologize, to reflect, to stay in “guilt mode.” Even though we’re the closest of allies, that old wound never fully healed. We felt bound by the past, by the Constitution America helped write for us, always a little smaller, always needing to prove we were sorry enough. But in that single joke, Trump did something powerful. He turned a painful history into a shared laugh between equals. It was like he was saying: “Hey, it was a long time ago. We’re good. Let’s move forward — as brothers.” No more endless atonement. No more living in the shadow of being the “former enemy.” The curse broke. Japan feels free to stand tall again. Right now, cherry blossoms are blooming beautifully all across Japan. 🌸 This spring, the sakura feels like a perfect symbol — a fresh beginning. Not two nations stuck in old roles, but true equals, proud brothers, shoulder to shoulder, ready to build the future together. To the American people: We don’t want to be subordinates forever. We want to be your real partners — strong, proud, and loyal. The kind of allies who ride or die together. Thank you, Mr. President. Thank you, America. The strongest alliance in the world is rising again — as equals, as brothers, forever. #PhoenixRising 🇯🇵🤝🇺🇸🌸

It is the end of democracy if voter ID is not passed

@Retae_Dog People might think it’s odd and be a little curious because that’s unusual to see at a BBQ in the US, but no ‘bad impression’ would be made.

アメリカのBBQ兄さん達に聞いてみたいことがある。 僕がBBQに招待されたとする。 その時、僕が手土産の他に、醤油とわさび、そして日本のお米と炊飯器を持参して真っ白な白米を炊き始めたらあまりよい印象は与えないのかな？ 実は日本の食事ってベースのお米を何で食べるかで組み上がるものなんだ。
