@Saturn_Shuttle Arguably, I’d have loved to have seen old-as-dirt Union vets throwing hands with Confederates

Not to ruin the photo, it's a great symbol, but they'd literally just broken up a fist-fight between the two sides minutes before the photo and this was about the only group of union vets even willing to meet them at gettysburg

@OfficialJoelF Honestly, that’s either the most damning or the most endearing nickname for a white pilot to have, really all depends on how they treat it

This F-35B pilot’s call sign is “pendejo”

@HighFuncGaming @hausofdecline But, like, the actual animated stories, as far as I remember, were all actual stories passed down orally by slaves, so those Br’er Rabbit bits are all pretty good, since they’re continuing those traditions

@HighFuncGaming @hausofdecline Well, that’s kinda the thing. It’s set during the Reconstruction/Jim Crow era, so like. It completely removes the Klan and all that, and really leans into the whole “life was better for slaves before they were freed” myth that was created afterwards

@Oddabellatay @spectre0799 Hey, now. Let’s not do Barney like that, his songs were actually good.

@spectre0799 Barney the Dinosuar ass flow

Shabang but the beat is Hickory Dickory Dock

@LRSerling And those are CONSERVATIVE estimates, too. That’s a full 8 hours every day bouncing from website to website, setting up accounts, confirming emails, THEN copy-pasting (if they even let you do that) your resume into their system, and hoping the company is actually hiring

I think traditional economic metrics arent taking into account the psychological factors at play. Record low unemployment doesnt feel so good when you still have to fill out 100 applications to get one interview, for example

@Caciclope I mean. Seth McFarlane’s also kinda a HUGE musical nerd, so.

do you ever see a scene and think "yup, Dan Povenmire is definitely involved in this"

@rubysapphrald But also, just. It was mostly a thing people made up, because they REALLY wanted men to drink less so they’d stop beating their wives so hard

@rubysapphrald Supposedly it was because, during prohibition, people would make fake absinthe using arsenic to give it that green tint, which, obviously, was not all that good for you

i love these paintings because i’ve tried absinthe and it’s hilarious that these dudes are getting fucked up enough to hallucinate green baddies on a drink that straight up tastes like melted licorice

@PamphletsY Ayo?? My main question is where’d they get the silicon and stuff for it, cuz. Y’know, gotta make sure that stuff doesn’t have any uranium/thorium contamination

🚨🇨🇳 BREAKING — China Unveils Gaming GPU To Challenge NVIDIA

The American chestnut was the dominant tree of the eastern US forest for thousands of years. One in every four trees in the Appalachians was a chestnut. Then, between 1904 and 1940, a fungal blight from Asia killed roughly four billion of them. The species nearly went extinct as a forest tree within a single human lifetime. The recovery effort is now in its fourth decade. The American Chestnut Foundation breeds disease-resistant hybrids by crossing American chestnuts with blight-resistant Chinese chestnuts, then backcrossing for generations to recover the American tree's form. Other researchers have used gene editing to insert a wheat gene that detoxifies the blight. The first restoration plantings are alive and growing in the Appalachians. They won't be mature for another 50 years. None of the people who started this work will see it finished, but we should all be glad they're doing it.

@TheLastFarm I mean, if it works, it works

The native plant community has crafted propaganda targeting America’s dumbest, most paranoid cretins 😂

@nathanrizzolo @svershbow I mean, it’s YOUR money if you live there. Why shouldn’t you get something back for paying into it?

@svershbow “If you vote for me, I’ll just use the tax money to pay for you to do cool stuff!”

I love that Zohran's fight to make New York City accessible to everyone goes beyond food and shelter. "This is your city, you should get to enjoy all that it has to offer," is a hell of a platform.

@MasterGir AEIOU

don't think it don't say it

@NYCMayor Yeah, if his money went DIRECTLY to those teachers, absolutely. But I do think the incentives in the federal government to put that money elsewhere is another part of the problem

I know a few teachers in Queens who would beg to differ.

@mask_bastard Ok, but like. Honestly, some of the Scooby-Doo movie soundtracks have the EXACT vibe 😅

🔥🔥

@crofts Don’t even think they MAKE this one anymore 😅 at least haven’t seen it on their website yet

@crofts My “fancy” watch for the longest time was this solar-powered Citizen watch, whatever they’re called. Nothing else too fancy about it, just a nice flat face, leather straps, got the time and date, exactly what a watch should be

Fuck it highly niche tier list for my fellow psychos out there

@giantchiller @bitcoin__intern I mean, in fairness, the olive oil might’ve been a little on the old side, but. It kinda just went Oil in pan Fire Carry the flaming pan outside to not set off the fire alarm or set anything else on fire Like I said, first time working with a stainless skillet, so.

@Dorkasaurus5 @bitcoin__intern pretty sure youre a dogshit cook

I have noticed that cooking absolutely everything with olive oil over high heat (and ruining the meal in the process) is a cornerstone of Girl Cooking.

@A_Sober_Drunk @emmanuelfelton Y’all owned slaves and were part of the Confederacy. You’re the South

@emmanuelfelton Texas is not The South. I'm a Texan and I correct Texans all the time. The South is pretty much south of the Mason Dixon and East of the Mississippi River

The definitive map of what makes up the South
