@stats_feed i find it very hard to believe that 54% of americans replenish their entire underwear collection every year.

@captive_dreamer it would also be too big for you to manage if you owned it.

Canadians: “the scale of the problem is too large for us to deal with also we are a totally sovereign nation please don’t annex us 😂”

Pardon my language but how in the fuck would you like us to "manage" this in such a manner that would prevent large wildfires? Other than clear cutting the entire goddamn thing.
English

@mattyglesias that doesn’t stop your compatriots from suggesting you invade and bomb us while our house is on fire. such fun neighbours lately!
English

Good post here about Canadian wildfires, this isn’t like California — Canada is much too large and empty to feasibly “manage” in a successful way.

@dumbbitchcap i mean sure, look how well all your other wars are going.

@RepHuizenga funny, when american areas are struggling with forest fires we usually just send our water bombers and teams of firefighters. but i guess we all relate to others differently.
English

Canada's inability to mitigate, contain, and prevent its wildfires must be addressed. These annual fires significantly harm not only our health and quality of life, but also our economic prosperity. I have discussed this situation with our Ambassador in Ottawa, Peter Hoekstra, and have personally reached out to Canadian government officials.
I call on the Canadian Government to fully and regularly inform appropriate US agencies such as the EPA as to the status and mitigation action plan regarding the fires.
I also encourage Canada to work with the US government to find concrete solutions to address their ongoing wildfire problems. Michiganders must stop paying the price for bad policy.

@nxdark @taj1944 @sekeresandprice ha, true, you should eradicate them all cause they don't do empathy exactly like you do. you psychotic retard.
English

@madatgod @taj1944 @sekeresandprice It is called being respectful and a decent human being. The right doesn't know how to do that. And because of this the right has no place in this society.

Don Taylor on 650: Reportedly when the news was delivered (to employees), there were still people in the room and the people who delivered the news were laughing and giggling about where they were going to have lunch, Carderos or Cactus Club. They don't care.

@KonstantinKisin ben shapiro did this two days ago, it wasn’t funny then either.
English

@taj1944 @sekeresandprice haha, typical vancouver lefties. call you all sorts of horrible names and question your worth as a person because you aren’t being compassionate enough in the most useless ways. just so stupid.
English

@taj1944 @sekeresandprice like, okay, but they're just doing their jobs too, not like they could say, 'the ceo wants us to shut this sucker down, but we're not doin' it! i will personally pay to keep this station on the air!'

@SpencerKlavan ha, klavan is typically unbearably arrogant, but something about this wording is a real treat.
English

that’s very smug, and there are reasons why they believe it doesn’t work here on ‘fallen’ earth. but your point is still a good one, you have to stop thinking about ‘paradise’ real quick if you don’t want it to start sounding pretty soul crushing. like, singing hymns all day? that was the worst part of church, which was the worst part of sunday!
English

@JoelWBerry you see, what he’s saying is: he thinks you’re a lousy person, a bad actor. then you ratted on anyone that happened to follow him like a woke lunatic, in order to prove him wrong. so it looks like he’s got the upper hand to me.

@jordanbpeterson oh good, peterson sneaks back into the room, starts up with the simple, non-controversial stuff...

With regard to "Judeo Christian":
The 10 Commandments are Jewish.
The great stories of the Old Testament are Jewish.
The Jews developed the idea of subsidiarity as the alternative to tyranny and slavery.
The Jews established the cultural preconditions for the rise of universal literacy.
The fate of Israel at the hands of the Islamists is the fate of the West.
This rising tide of anti-semitism sickens me. Those of you engaging in it for your oh-so-moral reasons—you're despicable.
And remember, you proud "Christians" objecting in all your purity to the term:
Christ Himself was a Jew.
Wes Huff@WesleyLHuff
So much noise online regarding the term "judeo-Christian." Guys -- in academia it's simply the term that describes the combined corpus of Old and New Testaments. The Jewish heritage of the Hebrew scriptures combined with the New Testament. That's it. I know you want there to be some conspiracy but there isnt, that's the way we're using it. It has nothing to do with geo-politics or a one world order.

🚨🇳🇴 ERLING HAALAND DEFENDIÓ A SØRLOTH TRAS LA ELIMINACIÓN DE NORUEGA.
🗣️ Erling Haaland:
“Alexander Sørloth es un jugador extraordinario y, más importante aún, uno de mis mejores amigos.
El fútbol se decide en fracciones de segundo. Desde casa es fácil pausar una jugada, verla diez veces y decir qué había que hacer. En la cancha no existe ese tiempo.
Nunca voy a señalarlo por una acción, porque todos los futbolistas hemos tomado decisiones que después hubiéramos querido cambiar.
Estoy inmensamente orgulloso de este equipo. Antes del Mundial, muy pocos creían que Noruega podía llegar hasta los cuartos de final. Nosotros sí creímos.
Le dimos a nuestro país un motivo para sentirse orgulloso. Luchamos por este escudo y por cada aficionado que siempre estuvo con nosotros.
No perdimos contra Inglaterra por un pase o una ocasión fallada. Tuvimos oportunidades para ganar y ellos aprovecharon mejor las suyas. Así es el fútbol.
Aquí nadie gana solo y nadie pierde solo. Ganamos juntos y perdemos juntos. Siempre estaré al lado de Alexander, igual que sé que él estaría al lado mío.
Nos vamos con tristeza, pero también con la cabeza en alto. Esto es solo el comienzo para el fútbol noruego. Volveremos más fuertes.” ❤️🇳🇴

@brookwardsports they do not think there is positive value in local sports media. at least that is a pretty defensible guess.
English

@yinzer_g that was a silly and embarrassing call. hopefully the soccer positive crowd can at least admit that much!?
English

@bryan_johnson is this new? this is almost certainly a false positive right? that’s the drawback of being tested constantly for everything. you find all kinds of things that probably aren’t real, and would just go away if you let them alone.

The world wants me to die.
My incurable disease diagnosis became global news. It was omnipresent on social media and 1,900 articles were written in a matter of days.
Many were saddened.
However, joy dominated the commentary.
People pointed to schadenfreude, the pleasure of another's failure. Yes, there’s that. There is a special place in people’s hearts that loves to see others fail, especially when that person’s presence threatens their own psychological stability in some way or helps them feel better about themselves.
But, if you look over the social media commentary about me, you’ll see that pattern:
“he deserved it.”
I deserved it because I challenged death. The crowd was running a deeply rooted psychological script that represents the oldest, most deeply embedded stories of human culture.
This was the first story ever written down, 4,000 years ago. Gilgamesh sought eternal life after losing someone he loved, only to have the plant of youth stolen by a serpent as he bathed. Leaving him to accept his mortality.
Asclepius became so skilled at rejuvenation that he raised the dead. As punishment, Zeus struck him down with a thunderbolt to enforce life and death authority.
This is the story of Jesus. Pontius Pilate offered a choice between a thief and the immortalist, and the crowd demanded the execution.
People need this story conclusion to keep themselves sane. The challenger must lose and the loss must appear deserved. It’s a shield of self preservation.
For if death is inevitable, their existence and that of their loved ones is justified and unavoidable. If death is not inevitable, nothing about their reality is safe.
I occupy the same philosophical and archetypal position as Gilgamesh, Asclepius and Jesus.
This statement will draw outrage and accusations of blasphemy, hubris and narcissism. Nevertheless, it’s the pattern that has repeated itself for thousands of years.
Death has been the omnipresent concern of the human race. It encapsulates our greatest fears, joy and curiosities. The discourse around it changes over time; however, the fundamentals remain unchanged.
What’s different about this moment, that is unlike any other moment, is that physical death may no longer be inevitable.
What if I didn’t deserve it?
And what if I am your ally, and not a threat?
English

@JoelWBerry she’s super similar to boreing, all gossip and mean girl shit. yeah, you could just ignore these lunatics. o
English

@SethDillon it’s the ‘(and hearts)’ bit that makes you look fraudulent. just have the argument, you don’t need to dehumanize people that disagree. make your case. you NEVER do that, you just assert that they are all dumb and evil. it’s just so weak and tiresome!
