Ah! My zing!

@LordIntellectX People can choose who to work with. People can post about their experiences with someone doing business, even if refused service. People can make memes about things people post online. Anyone on this chain is only a dick if their goal is to get rid of the first point.

I'm going to piss off both sides and make people tell on themselves. The fact is, private businesses, including individuals, have every right to refuse service to anyone, for any reason, including political beliefs. But, just as no one can exert control over you, you cannot exert control over them. You have no more right to dictate to anyone who else they work with or what technologies they work with, as they do to force you to work with them. Don't want to work with someone because of your personal beliefs? That is your right as a private individual. To then go on and make drama call out posts about the people you refused getting their needs fulfilled elsewhere, however, outs you as a moron. By all means, stand on your principles. I can respect that, even if I disagree with said principles. What I can't stand is hypocrisy and logical inconsistency. Thank you to @KitsuraNines for the meme.

@LizzyStarrrdust I bought a Scrub Uncle but I kept waking up and finding it in my bed unbidden.

The scrub daddy, scrub mommy like of products are just another subtle way the patriarchy shoves sexist behavioral standards down women's throats every single day. For those who aren't aware, "scrub mommy" includes a 'softer side' which is noticeably absent from "scrub daddy." This sends a clear message that women are expected to be soft and demure while men are free to remain harsh and avoidant. To market products that are used for women's work in such a sexist manner is insidious and destructive messaging to women and girls.

@HistorianUSA1 If someone whose job is to tattoo people for a living (and likely has TONS of their own ink) tells you you're doing too much... that's a sign to do some self reflection, not get into mathematical semantics debates with the internet.

Exhibit A in “How to ruin your own life before 25”: Almost-25-year-old rolls into a tattoo shop to cover up her latest regrettable elbow decision… and the artist simply notices reality: rainbow hair, face tattoos that look like they lost a bet with a Sharpie, lip piercings straight out of a “hire me never” starter pack, neck barbed wire (peak approachable energy), spiderweb for extra edge, and hands covered in enough random symbols to qualify as a walking “do not hire” sign. Artist: “How old are you?” “Almost 25.” Artist: “That’s a lot going on with your face for somebody who’s not even 25 yet.” Our protagonist’s brilliant defense? “I only have two face tattoos” while frantically pointing at their forehead, eye drips, neck, and hands like they’re counting participation trophies. Then they hit 13. Because apparently everything from the neck up (and the hands) doesn’t count if you squint hard enough and lie to yourself. Nothing says “I make excellent long-term decisions” like turning your face and hands into a permanent billboard for “I peaked during my edgy phase and now I’m surprised the world treats me accordingly.” The artist didn’t “judge.” They observed the obvious consequences of a string of poor choices and had the audacity to say it out loud. This is NOT peak self-expression and empowerment. It’s a masterclass in making every future job interview, relationship, and opportunity harder than it needed to be.

@JD12384641867 @TampaPD The last time I had to call a locksmith it took them 2 hours to get there after quoting me 45 minutes.

@TampaPD Why would you call the police instead of instantly calling someone with locksmith capabilities? Most tow trucks in my city unlock cars and you can find one that gets there fast usually. It seems like calling 911 adds an unnecessary step.

Accidents happen, and they can happen in a matter of seconds. Recently, our officers responded after a mom accidentally locked her keys inside her vehicle with her child still inside. She called 911 right away, stayed with her child, and officers safely reunited them within minutes. If this ever happens to you: - Call 911 immediately. - Stay with your child. - Create shade if possible and watch for signs of heat-related illness. A quick call and a calm response can make all the difference

@NY_LBSS @dvorstone This is after the match already ended. Orange got what he had coming.

@dvorstone No this is retarded , blue got his ass beat and is lashing out like a coward.

Everyone here is wrong: 1. The kid in orange initiated it. 2. The kid in blue was right to be mad but wrong to sucker punch the other kid. You can confront him, even with violent intent, but a sucker punch is dishonorable in such a situation. 3. The kid in orange was foolish and arrogant to think that he could disrespect his opponent and not suffer for it. He not only lifted himself off the kid's face but then he turned his back to him, effectively announcing that there would be no consequences. Such a posture demands correction, and it came. That doesn't mean that the kid in blue shouldn't be punished. He should be. A sucker punch is dangerous. It just means that when he's punished, it should come with the classic "I'm not saying you should have done it, but I understand."

@kirawontmiss Normally I'm very anti-sucker punching but if you do someone dirty and immediately turn your back on them you kinda had it coming.

High School wrestler is going viral after he pսnched his opponent after he pressed his head to the ground while getting up😬

@Therock169387 @MikeWingerii Muslims claim its the same God. Therefore, their god has done all the bad things in the Bible and Torah, plus all the bad things in the quran.

@MikeWingerii Your god was a pedophile genicidal freak. told Moses to keep little girls for himself, told Saul to kill children, babies and told rape victims that they should marry rapist

Muslims sources say that Mohammed’s child bride was still playing with dolls when he had sex with her. She was 9. He was about 53. Why does it matter that she was playing with dolls? Because there’s a rule in Islam that once a girl hits puberty she is not allowed to play with dolls as that is seen as idolatrous. So, Mohammed didn’t just have sex with a young bride. He raped a child, a little girl because children cannot consent. Mohammed was a pedophile. Confirmed by Islamic sources.

@G128_cz @TemplarsRoar Simps don't get laid. If she's putting out the proper term is "whipped".

@TemplarsRoar Okay Asmon is definitely getting leashed a bit but I wouldn't call him a simp yet, I think they are quite cute together. And I think It is good that Asmon has someone to force him into caring for himself a bit

Everybody hates Asmongold’s girlfriend, but for very different reasons… Hasan hates her because he wants that to be him. His haters hate her because they can’t as easily call Asmon a Nazi incel… And other people like Myron Gains hates her because Asmongold has turned into a simp and is washing dishes… 🤣🤣🤣

@Vaelorde @stonetoss The media literacy crowd out here misunderstanding media again

@stonetoss All these right wing people in the comments accidentally agreeing with the sentiment that Trans women are in fact women

@LavenderGhast When Thanos with a full Infinity Gauntlet attacked Doom, Doom tanked the hit. When Doom with a full Infiniry Gauntlet attack Thanos, he ripped his spine out in seconds. Doom is stronger than Thanos.

So as someone who knows very little about the character, why is Doom stronger than Thanos with the infinity stones? Isn't Doom just like a dude with magic powers or something.

@Agya2233 @Israeldefences @momenton_eze Sir, it is worse than that. Mamdani is not a governor. He is a mayor. He runs a single city, not an entire state

I don't understand why a State governor will speak with so much audacity. Israel Prime Minister is not a local politician and should not be intimidated by a mere Governor because he stepped into his State. The Federal Government should be the only one with the power to arrest international criminals. Unless US law permits that.

🚨 BREAKING: 🇺🇸 President Donald Trump declared that if Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visits the United States, no one will be allowed to arrest him. 🇺🇸 U.S. politician Zohran Mamdani responded by saying that if Netanyahu enters an area under his authority, he would order his immediate arrest, arguing that he considers Netanyahu a war criminal. 🇺🇸 Trump fired back, saying that the United States is under the authority of the federal government, and decisions of that nature will not be made by individual politicians. He added that anyone attempting to have Netanyahu arrested would face serious consequences, including possible removal from office.

@Pezzles1 @CygnusSlaughter @SandyofCthulhu Jack in the Box and Hardees/ Carl's Jr have it on thier breakfast menu

@CygnusSlaughter @SandyofCthulhu I've seen it at sit down places a few times, but what fast food chain has it?

France has amazing food. But certain aspects of it can be a little surprising to Americans. When I visited France the first time, they took me out for pizza, "Americans like pizza yes?" The pizza had zero tomato sauce nor other toppings. It had a rather pale cheese. I took a bite, and realized. "This is camembert." So I told my hosts, "This is camembert. This pizza has camembert, not mozzarella." My French hosts were SO pleased with themselves for giving me this unusual treat that I didn't have the heart to say yuck. Incidentally I like camembert just fine. But on pizza?! 1/4

@SandyofCthulhu @Hntaigana They don't have Jack in the Box, Carl's Jr/Hardees, or Sonic in Texas and Utah?

@Hntaigana Not at least in Texas or Utah or almost any chain.

@Hntaigana @SandyofCthulhu It is not uncommon, but it it also typically billed as a "breakfast burger'

@SandyofCthulhu Fried egg as an option for a burger is pretty common in America in my experience, at least in the past decade or so.

@VigilantFox The fines cap at 150,000. So if you were willing to pay them 150,000 to do it, just play it anyways lol

Tim Pool reveals The Turtles turned down $150,000 from the Daily Wire just to let them play "Happy Together" one time. $1,500 became $15,000. Then $150,000. The Turtles' answer stayed the same: No, you can't play our song. POOL: "They wanted to play 'Happy Together' at the Ryman Theater in Nashville… they offered a license fee to do it, one-time performance, it was 1500 bucks. And the Turtles said no." "So then Jeremy (CEO) was like, 'What? Why? It's a 60-year-old song. I mean, we just wanna play it one time…' And he says, 'Offer them $15,000.' And they go, 'Are you nuts? That's 10 times the fee.'" "They come back and say the Turtles said no, you can't play their song. And then Jeremy says, 'Okay, offer them $150,000.' And the Daily Wire crew, they were like, 'Are you nuts? That's insane. That, just for one performance?' He goes, 'I have to know.'" "The Turtles said no. They rejected $150,000 for these people just to play the song one time at a theater. That's crazy…"

@IfNotMeWho_7553 @WallStreetApes Won't somebody think of the poor agents of the surveillance state.

Flock's office secrecy looks hypocritical at first glance, but the company and its employees have received multiple serious threats, including a recent Texas arrest for severe threats sent directly to staff. I don't think their privacy requests are about hiding from accountability but protecting people whose work puts them in the crosshairs of criminals and violent activists.

It turns out Flock Safety Cameras love and demand privacy, but only for themselves and their employees - Flock business location says you can’t film - Flock moved locations but they instructed the old building to not give out their location to anyone asking - Security guard at Flock building says he doesn’t consent to being filmed and he doesn’t want to be “under surveillance” Here’s where it gets really crazy - The new flock building is identified but they won’t put their name on the building, or on any of the building signs - Security won’t confirm Flock is in the building - No one is allowed to film, no one is even allowed to access any floors in the building Flock demands extremely privacy, but only for themselves Americans must be under surveillance but for them, you can’t even film outside an old building…. Amazing….

@WalkEmDownTaker @leastracistdog All penguins are birds, but not all birds are penguins. This comment is not about penguins.

@leastracistdog but you're cool with black people? LMAO

I am not joking when I say I want people who do this put to death. No, I don't care that you think it's just kids having fun. I refuse to live in a society where I cannot go out for a walk without some idiot being disruptive to those around them.

@Emelia8z0 Let's say you have a 3 sided die. The side that says 1 is not the side that says 2, and neither are the side that says 3. But all are the same die.

To any christians Explain!!!

@Tironianae This man has made me change my views! I no longer believe we should deport all Somalis. I now believe we should deport all Somalis except one.

🚨 HOLY HELL Minnesota is way DARKER than anyone thought. A Somali refugee just blew the entire welfare racket wide open. He says they TOLD him to refuse assimilation and jump straight onto Section 8 and government benefits. That’s the “system.” “I was told to go find discounted housing, get on Section 8, sign up for community benefits.” And when he suggested actually integrating? His own community ATTACKED him. “The community treated welfare like a way of life. I said we can do better. They said no.” He came here at 29, fully aware of what he escaped in Somalia. And even HE is shocked at the fraud and rot in Minnesota. Massive respect to Abdi Iftin for exposing what Democrats desperately try to hide.

@megatonton @GiveMeBanHammer That's an insane argument to position against someone actively trying to pay you.

@GiveMeBanHammer "I want you to die but I can't do it myself so I will see you go hungry via economic sabotage and be unable to participate in society because of your political beliefs." Unpersonning in 2026, everyone.

This is a perfect illustration of why we cannot have a meaningful discussion on anything nowadays. I asked a very simple question because I am curious with how some will address it. Most of the replies like this one, are either outright ignoring the question, or saying its somehow "different". For those who are aware of "bake the cake, bigot!" incident in 2012 (pic relevant will give you a general ide), how is it meaningfully different in principle to what Miia has experienced now? Both situations revolve around a business/trader refusing a service to another over political and/or religious grounds. Despite being on principle the same issue, I am seeing a lot of people saying they disapprove of the cakeshop's decision to refuse a custom order, while praising the artist for blanket refusing their own commission over "differences in ideals". For those who want to still say its "different", sure be my guest and find differences that matter... You will find that in the case of the cake house - the baker still offered his services, only that he cannot accept the custom order...meanwhile in the case of the artist - the artist blanket rejected any and all business outright. The artist's on conduct alone is worse than the cake house owner, that is the "difference". The biggest gripe I have with this whole incident with Miia is not specifically Miia or her views whether I support or oppose it, those are the illustrations. My gripe is WHY the double-standard? Lets pretend Miia is not in the equation right now, let it be ANYONE else. In fact, lets not even think about who the artist is and who the commission is coming from. Explain to me, if you are a so-called "principled and moral" individual, what makes one so different from the other that you can have complete opposite reactions to them? Either everyone can reject business for any reason they want, or everyone must accept the business if its not an unlawful request. Which is it?
