  Which is why it’s based that it wasn’t promoted

  I guarantee he doesn’t actually believe this shit. He’s just a grifter grifting just like the rest of the Whitehouse circus cast. The only exception might be Robert F. Kennedy Jr. That freak show might actually believe the shit he spews.

  In this case penultimate is used to describe something that is nearly perfect. As if to say, there is little room for improvement.

  People on the internet all seem to have the most refined and bougie pallet. I’m not going to shout from the rooftops that Olive Garden is amazing or anything. But it’s not terrible food in my experience. And I’ve eaten plenty of authentic Italian. Olive Garden is Nickelback for pasta restaurants. Perfectly serviceable, but the Internet seems to be convinced you will die if you consume it.

  A terrorist is someone who enacts violence against civilians in order to create political change. Not saying Luigi deserves any of this, but if his goal was to make a point to the world about the mistreatment of patients at the hands of insurance companies in order to push change, then the terrorism charge is accurate.

  What insurance companies do is far worse than terrorism. They harvest the sick, elderly, and injured for their money in order to sate the capitalist urge to increase revenue for the investors. But that isn’t illegal.

  The modern porn industry is much more independent than it used to be. Most creators control and own their content and choose where it gets uploaded initially. In the past, the porn business was absolutely abusive to their stars but I think it’s much less the case these days. Filmmakers have to fight for actors because if they don’t treat them well or pay them their worth, they’ll just post their own content directly to their fans. I’m sure there are still huge negatives but I just don’t think it’s as bad as it once was and I certainly don’t think the porn industry is something to be upset about these days.

  It’s an album cover for sure. Album titled Milf Hunter.

  Every finite range has 2 limits. A bottom limit and a top limit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Eat lead⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  But that still doesn’t change the belief that a creator could have created the universe in whatever state it currently exists in. That’s why these arguments never go anywhere with hard core young earth creationists. It’s also not worth the energy arguing with them because they often believe that anyone trying to convince them otherwise is an antichrist trying to lead them astray.

  There’s a lot of stuff everyone has that they don’t need. What’s your point? Are you going to go vegan? because technically you don’t need meat. Are you going to stop driving an automatic transmission? Because you don’t need that. Oh, social media (Lemmy included), you definitely don’t need that.
