After your net worth hits a certain threshold you should be prosecuted by the spirit of the law as well as the letter of the law and juries can convict you of things that are not legally crimes
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

I'm confident in Hollywood's ability to stick this thing in development he'll until Trump or the country dies
the last Rush Hour movie came out in 2007 and had a significantly lower box office than 2, and now you're reviving it 20 years later as a personal vanity project of the unpopular President?

this is obviously intended to chill dissent but i think it's going to backfire on them. what the lawmakers said was just directly true. and trying to get them for it is just going to raise their profile and the salience of what they said!

I find the use of "warriors" rather than soldiers somewhat infantilizing.

The people in 1827 had no sense of humor, and couldn't recognize a good bit when they had one
from the 1200s till 1827 students getting a MA at Oxford had to swear an oath to never reconcile with Henry Symeonis, even long after who Henry Symeonis was was lost.
only in 1912, 85 years after the oath was abolished was Henry Symeonis' identity rediscovered, they still don't know what he did.

I met someone last weekend whose family also has a tradition of making Pink Stuff for Thanksgiving
Pink Stuff is a frozen desert-type substance served as part of main meal, composed of cool whip, cherries, and other ingredients
I'm sure it has a real name, but the real name was not passed down

I try to be honest with my niece, so I told her the truth about how my uncle died many years ago when she asked (He was murdered)
She got confused, and thought I was talking about someone else in my family who was also killed with a gun (suicide, softened for her ears to "accident").
