Questionable Lunch Meat

@miles_commodore Rev. Jesse Jackson championed the term "African American" in the late 1980s to foster cultural pride, establish historical context, and mirror the naming conventions of other American ethnic groups, replacing terms like "black" or "colored". He aimed to reclaim cultural identity.

Why am I referenced as an African-American? I hate that! My ancestors go back well over 200 years in this country. That's much longer than most other Americans. Do we call them British or Irish Americans? The term is dumb and I'm not a fan of it. I’m American!

@ReEvoluCafeOrch @miles_commodore This is 100% a biological FACT. The only human race is Homo sapiens, all humans are 99.9% alike genetically(human genome project) which means there's no "races" among us, we created "races" when it was only adaptations to different climates. Humans are fucking weird man.

@sametzelik79865 @grok @chitajohn_ @Cristiano Being Muslim isn't the problem, being an extremist is. Extremist Christians bomb abortion clinics and wish death on "sinners" and "Democrats" and yet we don't blame all Christians

@grok @chitajohn_ @Cristiano I wish all humanity were like Ronaldo; a Christian who respects Islam and is a good person. Regardless of one's religion, one should respect other religions.

Eid Mubarak to all! 🌙 I hope you have a very special day with your family and loved ones. Wishing you all peace and happiness.

@Azaad6460812 @ThrillaRilla369 There's no feeling like being told "being a mom is such hard work ! it's an important job!" by a man only to have him later minimize your contributions while declaring only his as valuable. It's a VERY helpless feeling. Partners don't let eachother struggle alone.

Honest truth, a lot of women would love a peaceful home, children, and a soft life but the real question is not desire, it’s trust. In today’s world, many women are not rejecting homemaking, they’re rejecting dependence on the wrong man. A cozy life sounds beautiful until loyalty is uncertain, bills are unstable, and respect is missing. The dream was never the problem. The risk attached to it is...

To the women who are on this app, be honest If you could stay home, raise babies and run a cozy homemaker life.. Would you??

@Selmatrixie @ACTIdgit @stuzi_pants That's intelligence right there, admitting when you don't know something and finding out more about it, then also admitting someone else was right. Wish it was contagious!

@ACTIdgit @stuzi_pants I can honestly admit my dumb ass thought the furor over the Handmaid's Tale was overblown and I'm sorry I wasn't paying more attention.

This is the Heritage Foundation who authored Trump’s Project 2025 No women in sport or academia No votes for American women No voice in politics or societal issues Do them dishes and desist basically 153 million women to be disenfranchised by morons

@VirtueMaxx @rocknroller912 @stuzi_pants Things are really expensive these days and I'd never forgive myself for not doing what I can to help my husband and family get the things we need to survive. I would NEVER forgive myself for my idleness. I'm unhappy because hard work isn't enough anymore, not even for basics!

@rocknroller912 @stuzi_pants As women have entered the workforce, over the years, their levels of happiness have fallen. They should have a choice, but it's a notable connection to explore.

@tangodream @FierceWomb @rocknroller912 @stuzi_pants It's an extreme version of the men that get emasculated because their wife makes more money. They're men that don't understand that "being a man" is about so much more than brut and bravado, it's about knowing when to be gentle and when to be hard and when to swallow pride!!

@FierceWomb @rocknroller912 @stuzi_pants Of course it is about more than that, as any intelligent person should realize. In the minds of these ultra conservative right-wing men, it isn't. Men are warriors, women are supposed to be subservient life givers that men "protect" and "provide for".

@MrSausageGet @joekent16jan19

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.

@jason_howerton When it comes to seeking "equality" it doesn't mean you have to invalidate the other gender's contributions to get there. Our contributions aren't always the same but the respect for them should be whether you're a nurturer or a builder Appreciating contributions goes a LONG way!

A functioning society where everyone can do those things.

@MAGASignal47 @EricLDaugh You're in MACEDONIA lol Fucking MAGAVoice?!?

@EricLDaugh Trump and Rubio pushing for real change in Cuba is huge — finally someone taking a strong stance against the regime. 🇺🇸🇨🇺🔥

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump announces he will have the "honor of TAKING CUBA" "Whether I free it, TAKE IT — I can do anything I WANT with it!" "They're a very weakened nation." Sec. Marco Rubio has been working on Cuba behind the scenes as well HERE WE GO! 🇺🇸🇨🇺

@alt_w_v_g Their job is creating compliant employees who shut up and do what they're told.

Had a parent-teacher conference this morning My wife told me not to come I came anyway She said "please just listen and nod" I said "I always listen" She said "you listen like you're sitting in a boardroom looking for something to challenge" That's how listening works Nice classroom Small chairs I am 6'4" and was seated at a desk designed for someone who still believes in Santa Claus My knees touched my chest The teacher introduced herself Shared her identified pronouns I shared my identified adjectives Smart and handsome My wife closed her eyes The teacher had a folder Color-coded tabs I respected the organization She said our son is "a pleasure to have in class" My wife smiled I waited That sentence is never the whole report It's the executive summary before the risk section She said "however" There it is She said he "asks a lot of questions" I said "good" She said "during quiet time" I said "when is quiet time?" She said "it's when students are expected to work independently and in silence" I said "so he's the only one trying to get information and you've structured the environment to prevent it?" My wife put her hand on my arm I continued The teacher said he recently told another student that "sharing pencils doesn't make sense if nobody brings their own" I said "that's an accurate observation" My wife squeezed harder The teacher said she's concerned about his "resistance to group activities" I said "he's not resistant. He just doesn't see the value of doing more work for the same grade." The teacher said he also corrected her math on the whiteboard I said "was he right?" She paused She said "that's not the point" I said "it's a little bit the point" My wife stood up Sat back down Compromise The teacher pulled out an evaluation sheet Categories like "works well with others" and "follows directions" and "respects classroom norms" All subjective Not a number on the page I asked how these are graded She said "based on observation" I said "so one person's opinion with no second review?" She said "it's professional judgment" I said "my auditors say that too. Right before I disagree with them." She looked at my wife My wife said "I'm sorry about him" I said "I'm sitting right here" My wife said "I know" The teacher said overall he's a bright kid and she just wants to make sure he learns to "collaborate" I said "collaboration is important. But so is recognizing when you're the only one doing the work. He'll learn that again in college. And again in the real world. Might as well start now." Nobody spoke The teacher closed her folder She said "I think we've covered everything" I said "one more thing" She braced herself I said "his reading is above grade level. His math is strong. He asks hard questions and corrects mistakes when he sees them. I just want to make sure this school knows what it has." The teacher looked at me differently My wife looked at me differently I said "that's all" We left In the car my wife was quiet Then she said "he's turning into you" I said "is that a good thing?" She didn't answer From the backseat he said "dad, why does the teacher count off for asking questions? Isn't that the whole point of school?" I looked at my wife She looked out the window I said "yes. It is." He said "I don't think she likes when I'm right" I didn't say anything Neither did my wife Small chairs Color-coded tabs No follow-up items But the kid's going to be fine Sent from my iPhone

@SuperMikhail1 It would be less crappy if the mandatory enrollment hadn't ended. The pool of young healthy people that didn't really use their insurance just decided to forgo enrollment because they could, now there's far more old unhealthy people enrolled and less healthy ones to offset it.

The left trying to flex while simultaneously confirming Obamacare is totally and completely crap.....

@HarryClov3r @RyLiberty Even Israel has universal healthcare, yet we still send money to them? But there's not enough money for Americans??

@RyLiberty Please God!!! Get off this Israel shit and go after the healthcare in the United States!!!

The number of people who go bankrupt every year because of medical bills. Norway - 0 UK - 0 France - 0 Spain - 0 South Korea - 0 Portugal - 0 Denmark - 0 Australia - 0 Iceland - 0 Italy - 0 Finland - 0 Ireland - 0 Germany - 0 Netherlands - 0 Sweden - 0 Japan - 0 Canada - 0 Taiwan - 0 United States - 643k

@Hatelies_12 @araghchi They said he's "too tall". How convenient, just like Dad and his "shin splints". They would rather have the poor of America die for their "cause" instead.

@araghchi Why not trump is sending his son to war

I've been told that family of a U.S. soldier killed in the war of choice on Iran is relying on public donations. As fair and equitable deal was within reach, those providing poor advice to POTUS are responsible for bloodshed. This war is imposed on both Americans and Iranians.

@alilarijani_ir Many of us Americans know the call is probably coming from inside the house, and in fact many have been expecting it. Lust for money, power and control can do really dark things to people. My thoughts are with the innocent stuck in the middle of the global pissing contest.

لقد تردّد أن ما تبقّى من شبكة إبستين يعمل على إعداد مؤامرةٍ تهدف إلى افتعال حادثةٍ على غرار هجمات الحادي عشر من سبتمبر، تمهيداً لاتهام إيران بالوقوف وراءها. إن الجمهورية الإسلامية الإيرانية ترفض من حيث المبدأ مثل هذه المخططات والعمليات الإرهابية، ولا تخوض حرباً مع الشعب الأمريكي.

@beirhbrjrk @timand2037 We have people in American government that would LOVE to get those numbers even LOWER. They would then convince the people that America is the FREEST and most advanced country ever by pointing fingers at "those countries". College is ridiculously expensive here. $125,000 4yr. !!

@timand2037 This too.

What imperial feminism missed.

@NicholasTyrone Those is us worried about climate change have finally realized that nobody really gives a fuck. If you can look around and see all the damage humans have done and say "It's normal climate fluctuations! Stop being alarmist!" then might as well wait until shit hits the fan! Right?

It is astounding how pretty much the entire left have given up on climate change as an issue. It was omnipresent for ages, and now it barely features at all in leftist discourse. Sort of makes you wonder if their commitment to it was ever real.

@JDVance The difference will be SELECTIVE ENFORCEMENT. If you look like a "libtard" or you're a woman, they'll suddenly scrutinize every document you procure and insist on more, but rest assured that their conservative neighbor Bobby-Jo is cool, we KNOW he's alright to vote! Trust me bro!

This is very simple: only Americans citizens should be allowed to vote in American elections. The SAVE America Act is common sense, and we need to pass it now!

@gotrice2024 I noticed that's how many Chinese/immigrant families do it, create a large savings (enough for a home) while staying with parents/grandparents and then they have a real good start to becoming an adult. Wanting children to "have it as hard as I had it" is messed up!

This man complains that his daughter stays in her room all day and doesn’t enjoy talking to him and his wife. Whenever she does come down for food or water, he’s always reminding her that when she turns 18 either she can move out or pay rent. I never understood why people do this as a scare tactic to teach kids responsible. Is it possible that his interactions like this is actually damaging his relationship with his daughter. Isn’t he giving her a vibe that he doesn’t want her around or is this a part of teaching her responsibility?
