The idea that refusing a debate means you can’t argue your positions or that they’re inherently weak when it actually means: I don’t talk to fucking dorks

of all the dumb shit that sucks these days, the dumbest and pettiest shit that sucks is the way people fetishize debate. i would like to revert to the old roughly agreed-upon cultural understanding that debate club is for boring friendless nerds

lol some of us don’t have time to discern the (rumored) different flavors of conservatives. They all sit together anyway. Like. Be for serious.

The dad energy of getting excited about a home depot date.

Two characters talking, one in construction gear and another in an orange sweater and cow pattern hat. Text reads:
I'm taking you to home depot with me
What do you need me for?
I will teach your some technical repair stuff
Sure, I don't mind. sounds fun
I don't want you calling somebody else if you don't know how to fix things...
Is this about me or you?
If I show you how to work a drill then we can be a team.

Two characters talking, one in construction gear and another in an orange sweater and cow pattern hat. Text reads:
Some faucents have two holes and others have one, your bathroom has two.
You must know which one you have otherwise you will buy the wrong one.
Okay.
...
Wow my heart is pounding.
For me or the faucet?

Monster Menagerie 15: Doctor Octopus
Since the Industrial Revolution, fears of machines replacing humanity have existed. As technology grows, and we discover advanced behaviors in other animals, the definition of "human" grows blurrier. This is why the cyborg is seen as monstrous. Such as Doc Ock

Like this whole damn country is built on interest rates if you got unpaid bills; is unpaid land different?

Why does my taxes have to pay towards trillions on wars I didn't want that, but none of that has to go towards people you stole from?

The other half of how this country runs is on contract law. Why do you get to break treaties and contracts on people, but no one supposed to break treaties and contracts on you?

Really the only rule of law here is genocidal white supremacy, everything else is "maybe if we feel like it"

Olivia Rejngold and and Amanda Marcotte are having the same triangulated melt down from different points on the ( white) political spectrum

And it’s based in the idea that white people can never be terrible enough to non white people that other white people can organically not fuck with them

Denver Leary spent the last three (3!!) chapters of KEEPING TIME trying to get the reserved, attractive pianist he used to know to (re)join his band. He FINALLY succeeded except it's, uh, off to a rough start

#KeepingTime #webcomics

🎸 Latest update: keepingtimecomic.com
🎸Start from the beginning

A panel from the webcomic KEEPING TIME. Three dudes in a band are in their practice space experiencing a full range of emotional reactions to a new band member joining them. The bassist, Stef, crosses his arms surlily, Tomás, the drummer, is an excitable toddler, and Denver holds his hands out at Stef in a 'dude, what gives' gesture as he asks, "Stef, buddy? You wanna say hi back, or...?"

Broke into the tape to see how the Falcons were able to throttle down the Bills offense Monday night. Lots of fun schematic wrinkles in this one, but it doesn't work without great play from the young guys and vets on defense. Jalon Walker had easily his best game as a rookie.

If America dies, her epitaph will read, "They wanted whiteness more than they wanted a country."

No wonder so many of you still socialize with your GOP families and friends: you think they sort of have a point.

You tell Black people to set race aside while clinging desperately to it yourselves.
