Cards Against Humanty just released their “For Her” pack, parodying products geared towards women and also giving proceeds to Emily’s List, which helps more women get elected to government.
I firmly believe that Fleur Delacour and Viktor Krum remained friends after the triwizard tournament and that one night while they were celebrating Fleur and Bills engagement a very drunk Fleur bet a not as drunk Viktor that she could catch a snitch before him and so they competed and he won and Fluer lost her end of the bet saying that she would name her first born after him
and that is why their kid is named Victoire and the only reason it isn’t spelled with a k is to annoy Viktor
Because the President of the French Open didn’t like it. He said “It will no longer be accepted. One must respect the game and the place.”
The rule did not exist prior to this, they just made it up when they saw Serena wearing one.
“Superhero” “black panther inpired” I’m loving all the shit I’m reading on this NIKES FUCKING RESPONSE IS FLAWLESS TOO
“You can take the superhero out of her costume, but you can never take away her superpowers.” on the official Nike Twitter with a picture of her in the suit
Hey remember that joke a few years ago where people would make fun of animals that looked intimidating from the side but very goofy upfront? Well I just found out about the Leopard seal and
They go from terrifying killer machines to ambient lump lads REAL quick
I’m not defending her or anything but honestly, what do you expect? She’s a mainstream American politician. She might be better than most but if any politician at this point ran on a platform of not deporting anyone then they’d instantly be seen as too radical and “idealistic” by the media and the general public. I mean it took us a very long time before most people got on board with the idea that having a health care system similar to basically every other first world country wasn’t too radical.
The context for this was that a 95-year old Nazi war-crime suspect who happened to live in the district for which she is running for Congress was finally deported (he was actually ordered to be deported 2004 but no country would accept him until now, when Germany finally agreed), and the GOP attacked her for it, and then when she clarified that yes, she still wants to abolish ICE but some deportation will be necessary, like the deportation of Nazis suspected of being war criminals, the left attacked her for that, because that makes her a cop.
Why do ya’ll look for a reason not to support people?
“Now there’s this about cynicism, Sergeant. It’s the universe’s most supine moral position. Real comfortable. If there’s nothing that can be done, then you’re not a shit for not doing it, and you can lie there and stink yourself in perfect peace.”
Quotes aside, I really… really kind of feel the need to remind people of a few pieces of perspective:
I don’t particularly care about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. She’s nowhere near my neck of the woods and it’s unlikely I’ll ever run across her on a voting ballot, nor that her positions will have much effect on where I live. That’s really not the point.
What IS the point is that the reason the Democratic party, specifically, and American left, generally, are flopping around like worms cut in half for the last two years while an increasingly hostile fascist force occupies our offices of government is because every time, every time, every goddamn time anyone raises their head an inch above the crowd and begins to look even slightly like they might become some sort of the leader for the Left, this. Shit. Happens.
The smear machine will stop at nothing, they’ll go back twenty years or five thousand miles or pull one sentence out of War and Peace to present out of context or just flat out make shit up to present the would-be leader as a Failure and a Sellout and a Traitor To The Cause. And every one of y’all that goes along with it and declares that people like Ocasio-Cortez or Kamala Harris or whatever is “cancelled,” every one of you is part of the problem.
I don’t know whether the OP is a genuine leftist purity zealot or a Russian dissent monger, but either way, they’re doing the Right’s work for them.
