  • ... wtf did I just look at?

    I mean it's funny but I could not tell anyone why. And so I'm amused and confused all at once....

    I mean i get that is a parody of an orgy, but honestly it's so alien that's the only similarity I can find. I just don't have any personal context for the mechanics of sex positions that wet floor signs might be using. Is there any sort of correlation to type of sign and gender, or is it more of a 'different body type' deal?

    I feel like this could be the topic of a whole episode of Lower Decks.

  • Quick summary here;

    Lots of people, mostly under 25 from the looks of them, threw buckets of popcorn all over when the Chicken Jockey appeared. The movie was paused by the theater and identified offenders where escorted out.

    Honestly people, just control yourselves. This is a kids movie, for crying out loud. It really screams "look at me, I'm a rebel and cool!" in only the most desperate way. I'm glad none of this happened at my local theater, we all just got to enjoy the film and share a laugh or two.

  • I agree, the nature of the convictions should be a factor. I also agree that a sort of "cooldown" from a conviction would be reasonable, before having eligibility for holding political office restored. I've been leary of the simplified "convicts shouldn't hold office" statement though, since the original intention of that lack of disqualification criteria was, to my understanding, to prevent political imprisonment from barring opponents from holding office. That seems like the sort of thing the current administration would jump on if they could, as well.

  • I don't have an issue with a public servant holding office and having a criminal record. People make mistakes, and people can change. However, I think the fact the current president has made public and copious comments about dismantling the democracy that exists while showing a blatant disdain for the rights of people, that I have an issue with.

  • My friends and family are feeling stirs of panic, and it has pushed many of us to start taking a more active role in making our voices heard. Letter campaigns to Congress, joining activist groups and participating in those groups, and a much higher level of alertness towards government action are just a few of the more obvious results and changes I've seen.

    I fear that it won't be enough, but with young kids in our household we are trying to do what we can in nonviolent ways. The risk of prison or worse would take a huge toll on the little ones.

  • The problem arises when the person giving those orders authority hears "By order of the king" instead of "by directive of the president".

    The US doesn't want a king, it was a big deal here about 250 years ago. Looking like it's gonna be a big reminder for the 250 anniversary.

  • Unless they're in the same stall, no privacy is being violated. And if they are in the same stall, that's a whole different matter anyway.

    No reasonable person would be bothered by this, only these fascists and their ilk.

  • Because in that syphilis riddled brain, the orange-blunder has had the brain-shart concept slip out of the diseased sections and into what passes for a consciousness, that by only having a state line, there is no border, and so he will have solved "the border crisis". This is not a rational human being we're dealing with, it's a geriatric puppet-dictator who very likely has some form of degenerative brain condition.

  • Also that moron represented by an eagle? I think a buzzard is more accurate, if we must stick to birds. Smells like death and eats whatever can't fight back, right down to the bones.

    (Cool animal, but not a flattering image to be compared with.)

  • Thank goodness, I'm embarrassed that the walking cheeto would melt down like that while holding one of the most prestigious offices in my country, although unfortunately I'm not surprised by it. I'm glad Ukraine has other places it's leadership can turn too in this time of need. Sadly, I can only hope that the dark spector of mortality does it's work swiftly in the oval office and this geriatric orange is done for good sooner rather then later.
