“She thinks we have no impact on the climate but somehow control the weather,” scoffed another House Republican.

Who is this House Republican? I legit want to give them a cookie.

Does discrimination exist in Idaho?

White guy: No

Native woman: Actually, yes.

White guy: loud, angry discrimination

This guy has to be exhausted for constantly coming up with the worst fucking takes, lying to boost his own ego and generally being a giant dumbass. I’m exhausted for him.

Pffft. Who can’t see that that’s ai generated? Also how weird is it to see Trump in anything but suit or silly golf clothes? Jeans and a button up is entirely to normal for the orange man to wear.

Every accusation is admission

Right, it is only in juxtaposition of the Trump Vance ticket that theirs seems so… idk, righteous? Wholesome? But were this 20 years ago, they’d be pretty normal. It’s only with the looming threat of another Trump presidency on the backdrop of what he and the GOP have wrought on modern politics that what should just be normal is so hopeful. But I’d love me some fucking normal right now so I’m gonna go ahead and still be excited about that if you all don’t mind?

You can cook in a microwave. But those frozen meals and rice packs are already cooked, you’re just reheating/reconstituting them. I wouldn’t conconsider that cooking, no.

Cooked

Slap a whole fish down in front of you.

You: “Not cooked”

slice fillet of fish off and present it.

You: “Not cooked”

slice fillet into small bite size pieces and squirt some neon green horseradish next to it

You: “Dis is cooked!”

?

Ceviche is said to be “cooked” with acid, even if that’s not the most accurate term. And most forms of sushi are made with cooked rice, at minimum, and not uncommonly with other cooked ingredients. So those things kind of muddy the waters for your point. But a clearer example may be something like beef tartare, a garden salad with a vinegarette, or sashimi. Those things are “prepared”, not cooked, because no cooking is involved in their making. Cooking is specifically the preparation of food utilizing heat. Chefs prepare plenty of dishes that do not involve the act of cooking.

“Cooking” to me, requires the combination of ingredients AND heating them to create a new thing. Making a grilled cheese is basic, but cooking. Slapping meat, cheese and veg on bread is not cooking.

Seconded. They are not laughing at your misuse of the words grammatically. They are laughing at the unintentional parallel to the way bigots talk about the people they target with their hate/insults. For a joke, they are twisting the meaning of your words to imply that when you say “those people” you are referring to some minority or marginalized group in a derogatory way. “Those people are loud” is an innocent statement on it’s own when referring to a group of people being disdisruptive. But “Those people are loud” when “those people” refers to an entire demographic of people is a derogatory stereotype. “What do you mean thoooose people?”

Humor wasn’t the goal. Making apparent the racism of Vance and Trump’s words was. If repeating back the racism someone else used in order to deride them somehow applies that same racist stigma onto me, I would argue that your priorities are misplaced. If I had directly quoted them and cited the quotation would the reaction have been the same? Because it amounts to the same level of disconnect from the words to me. But whatever. Not a hill I care to die on. I’ll delete it. Didn’t mean to upset anyone.

That was meant to be parody exaggerating the racist shit JD just said and combining it with the racist shit Trump said previously. I didn’t make that clear enough, clearly. This does not reflect my viewpoint whatsoever.

Edit: i didn’t make it clear enough. This is parody combining the racist shit JD just said with the racist shit Trump said previously. In no way does this reflect my actual viewpoint.

But a doctor that totally wasn’t paid off says he was literally the healthiest president in the history of America, so…

Can we stop platforming small insignificant bigots just because they say stupid and awful shit and happen to be somehow tangentially related to Trump or the GOP? This is how these psychos get the notoriety that earns them seats in congress where their bigotry actually matters, ala MTG, Boebert, Gaetz, etc. I had never heard of this lady yesterday, and now I’m seeing multiple national news stories about her aggressive bigotry and indecency. Not only was I happier yesterday, but she was also less electable yesterday because this shit, incredibly, unfortunately, sells on the Right. Fucking stop. Just stop it.

But what kind of donut?

• She definitely needled him. I knew when she talked about all of the inane nonsense he talks about at his rallies and how he exhausts his own supporters so much they leave early during his 90 minute long ramblings that that would piss him off to no end, and sure enough all he could do after that was brag about his rallies and claim no one goes to her rallies. That being said, why in God’s name did ABC let him get the last word on. Every. Single. Talking point? No matter who was talking first, no matter the subject, no matter how off course he was taking the topic, he’d start whining after she finished talking and they’d turn his mic back on and give him more time. If I’m not mistaken they gave him an extra rebuttal one time then tried to restrict Kamala from responding back until she insisted so much that they relented and then they STILL gave Trump another minute to give the last word again! What the hell was that? Tell the fat orange fuck “no”, follow the rules and move on! If he wants to whine about her words, he can eat up time from the next question doing that. Don’t give him more of platform to spout lies unchallenged. He has plenty of that already.

“barely coherent” is being generous. “Rarely coherent” or “almost never coherent” are more accurate.
