Should we lose our way
Tire of all of this pain
We won't be afraid
To forge ahead

The six exclamation marks is what makes it legal under admiralty law, according to a guy I saw in a YouTube video who said he heard that from someone on the street that once lived with a roommate whose dad's cousin was a former elementary school classmate of a judge.

Trump announces another strike "just off the Coast of Venezuela" that killed 6 people

Under my Standing Authorities as Commander-in-Chief, this morning, the Secretary of War, ordered a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel affiliated with a Designated Terrorist Organization (DTO) conducting narcotrafficking in the USSOUTHCOM area of responsibility — just off the Coast of Venezuela. Intelligence confirmed the vessel was trafficking narcotics, was associated with illicit narcoterrorist networks, and was transiting along a known DTO route. The strike was conducted in International Waters, and six male narcoterrorists aboard the vessel were killed in the strike. No U.S. Forces were harmed. Thank you for your attention to this matter!!!!!!

You can't logic your way out of being burnt out. Unless you're me. Who should be able to do it and it's a personal failing that I can't

Good morning, Ottawa.
Bonjour, Ottawa.

A comic strip titled "Teen Comix" by "Beanson '15"
A boy wearing sunglasses and a t-shirt that says "No Kings" on it is greeted by a friend in the first panel. In the second panel, a closeup of a shirt with a Canadian flag on it can be seen. In the third panel, the boy with the sunglasses's shirt now says "one king."

Even some of the articles trying to explain the lyrics miss the Bloodhound Gang reference.

I've always wondered what a teenager today listening to The Real Slim Shady would think. We're a quarter-century removed from The Marshall Mathers LP and even further from some of the very specific things and people he mentions, not to mention the context of Eminem himself at the time.

Drake meme where he doesn't want to watch a 2-hour movie, but does want to watch a 4-hour Adef Victory Road runthrough video.

Aside from the shutdown at the end, it sounds to me like Trump and Vance are incredible weaklings if Chuck Schumer can push them around.

They're in charge of everything and own the entire government, and yet this one old man is too powerful for them to stop?

STEPHANOPOULOS: I didn't insinuate anything. I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50k as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024. You did not answer the question. Thank you for your time.

VANCE: No, George, I sai--

STEPHANOPOULOS: We'll be right back

Smug and wrong is a deadly combination.

Stay safe out there in the comments, friends!

Oh and this isn't because I'm some diehard Thanksgiving lover. I didn't grow up doing anything for Thanksgiving because it was usually the start of hunting season, so all the men were on the land. And now I'm vegan, so I truly DGAF about Thanksgiving 😂 I just hate people being smug AND wrong.
