this took a second to get, and that made the joke better.

I think I figured out the mentality. It’s Barbie dolls. They all still subconsciously want to look like a barbie doll. and this is some DEEP subconscious conditioning too. (Exception for folks with alopecia, of course)

Real talk: I heard somewhere that this is Jack Black’s Mom.

I feel like this need a spokesperson. Is John oliver available? No need to pay him; He’ll do this shit FOR FREE.

Case in point: I absolutely LOVE The Lord of the Rings films. Absolute masterpieces that haven’t aged A DAY.

Tolkien’s “The Fellowship of the Ring” had me asleep in 25 pages.

I actually think doing a theme is probably the best way to go about it. Like, if you are into thorned roses, or tribal patterns, or stars, riff on that shit. At least that could be generously called “body art,” and I have no problem with that.(because “art”) think the giant panel work people get on their backs.

that’s just eggs, bud.

As a person who spent many years in the culinary arts field, I can assure you that most professional bakeries use the same mix you can buy at the store, just shipped in 50 pound bags. The difference is that they use butter instead of oil, heavy cream instead of water, more eggs, and brown sugar instead of white.

your tattoos “telling a story” is like a mandatory meeting that should have been an email about something I’m not involved with, and in fact, couldn’t care less about. You think enduring pain makes you seem tough, but it just makes you seem like someone who makes poor fiscal decisions in this shitty economy. And, (as an aside) ink was supposed to make you stand out because it was supposed to be a rare thing than not many people did. Now not many people have no ink at all so, if you were looking to be “unique…” (I mean, just sayin.')

The issue is that the powers that be did learn their lesson and they learned it well. If you keep the masses JUST sufficient enough that they still have something “to lose” they’ll be to busy chasing that to be able to mount any kind of resistance to their exploitation. It’s the splash and dash mentality. It’s also why they are so against abortion. they frame it as a moral issue, but it’s really about ensuring a good crop of fresh people to exploit when the current crop wears out. It’s a common fascist tactic: Concentration Camps were usually billed as “work” camps where people would be set to menial or meaningless tasks, so they would waste away on purpose, and the deaths could be logged as “by natural causes” and not murder. (only what the regime defined as “undesirables” were sent to be euthanized.)

Competing Lords owned the land and extracted labor from the peasants, and this was feudalism. Then peasants overthrew the lords so they could seek ownership of those lands, but that only benefited those who already had the means to fill the vacuum left by the lords. Capitalism only shuffles the deck of Feudalism. it doesn’t solve the underlying flaw in the game, namely that there will always be someone with more means than you extracting value from people whose only asset to sell is their labor and time. Eventually a group of gentrified individuals will emerge that fill the rolls that the old lords did, and given that nepotism is rampant in industry, it’s not even really that different at all from feudalism. The idea that a CEO should be president of a democracy is such a perversion of the idea of public rule that it is anathema to it. Extreme wealth should be disenfranchising in of itself, as if you are that wealthy, you no longer need the protections of a popular government, but rather, you are what that kind of governance is supposed to be protecting against.

In ancient times when planes had a simple stick for controls, you pull back to go up and push forward to go down.

careful. this may be the first confirmed photo of a negative fuck

someone wants to be covered in melted butter sauce.

If you imagine their catchphrases, this is even better.

Made me think of this:

Brothers and sisters in christ, in this, the year of our lord two thousand and twenty six WHY THE EVERLOVING HELL ARE EATING DISORDERS STILL A THING?!?! There should be enough celebrity push back on these warped managers and available information about this on the internet to shut down their body shaming bullshit, FFS. Get this chick dinner with Queen Latifah and Sir Mix A Lot STAT. Fried okra, red beans & rice, and some collard greens should do the trick me thinks.

someone should photoshop weird al’s head over that tree.

No. That’s like wanting to be a doctor and having to work on call at the ER. they are dues and need to be paid.

he understood it perfectly you dirty dirty boy. :p
