Gotta narrow it down more than that. Can’t let Catholics or Mormons slide in on the lawmaking either!

Sounds like it would go great with a vodka martini

Right, I kind of expected that prominence to encourage carrying enough security to protect him. I think he skewed that a bit and thought he was untouchable because of his prominence.

The other two are just as insane, but think they have Trump’s ear despite not commanding anything near Kirk’s audience

Weird, all I’ve ever heard about is how high the suicide rate is among trans people, nothing about murder rate.

Also weird to consider “trans rights are human rights” to be nihilistic (Political belief or action that advocates or commits violence or terrorism without discernible constructive goals)

Edit: I meant as in trans people murdering other people. Trans people are overwhelmingly victims of violence than perpetrators

He’s famous for creating a conservative organization while in college, called Turning Point USA. The org puts out a lot of smug memes to appeal to young conservative folks, so naturally people made fun of them and counter-memed.

He’s said a lot of very vile things, like “Black women don’t have the same kind of brain processing power” (paraphrased) when talking about how bad DEI is.

My BFF hadn’t heard of him either, but they curate their feeds to be mostly uplifting fluff, and they aren’t terminally online like I am lol. I was kind of surprised that he was the influencer that got shot though, I might have expected someone like Loomer or Fuentes

Meanwhile, my previous professor received death threats that they “need to be lynched” for refusing to mourn him. They were also fired for stating they won’t mourn him.

edit for clarity

Pretty sure that’s a snapping turtle. Had a bunch in our ponds when I was growing up and they’d always climb the fence like this.

What a weird choice to replace Charlie. Like, the man used to be gay until conservatives turned on him over it, he’s catholic, worked for Nick Fuentes (Kirk’s nemesis) and Ye, and he’s not even American.

You don’t have to take my word when Wikipedia exists :) I think this version must be popular with older folks, I have a boomer prof who writes them as shown in the OP image

The & symbol they wrote looks like a three I guess. It’s saying that “two Black men were lynched &…”

I’m not here to downplay those problems in China. They are serious. But, that’s not the government saying they don’t care about children, it’s saying that they have their own racist and bigoted political problems.

And, if you’ve paid any attention, the US is doing really similar things and has been for a long time. We made some progress with the Civil rights movement, but we still have Black people arrested at 2x the rate of white, 37% of the prison pop is Black while they only represent 13% of the general pop. The education system has all but erased the cultural roots of Black Americans, and God forbid a Black teen uses slang to communicate. Most of the sectioning off of voting areas in the US is to minimize their and other minority’s voting power. For now it’s still legal to say “Hey this influencer really made life bad for me, and I’m okay with him being dead”, but it may not remain legal for long. EPA regulations are being dissolved, but the biggest problems will affect traditionally/forced Black neighborhoods.

Where are you getting the idea that the government in China doesn’t care about their children?

Hey man, you’re the one that brought up rules. But while we’re talking about international rules, gene editing of embryos and their descendants is legal in the US if it’s privately funded. And it’s not illegal internationally to do so

Also, I’d be less worried about CRISPR specifically for this use, because it’s not always accurate, is limited in what it can actually do, and there are better gene editing tools now

But our side has rules, you assume they play by the rules.

China academia has the same problem that US academia has: publish or perish.

And seriously, you can’t say something like that and ignore all the BS the US government has been pulling internationally for decades. Trump murdered 14 random people on boats that weren’t even in US territory, and seemingly no one on the international stage gives a shit

What if I want them to use my spam??

The original singer of BNL left for mental health reasons, and imo the band never recovered.

But also, I agree with you xD

Ooh, oh my gosh that makes a lot of sense! Thanks for the tip ^^

Those look so good! What kind of air fryer do you have? I don’t know if I keep buying ones that don’t circulate air well enough or if it’s something else, but between the two I’ve owned I haven’t gotten a nice crisp on anything
