Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing other users of being bots or paid actors.

Because nothing is more American than having the government regulate thought.
I’m no longer sure if the above sentiment should be interpreted sarcastically or not.
thoughtcrime doesn't entail death. thoughtcrime IS death.
FOR SUPER EARTH!!!!!!!
Nothing? Not even apple pie or cia black ops government torture sites?
Ever try hot apple pie with a slice of cheese?
It tastes like apple pie with cheese. I still don't get why it's a thing.
gotta use the right cheese. the people who did it with shitty cheddar, that's a prank
Oh sure, with goat cheese, Gouda, or gruyere, I could totally see magic happening. But that's not what people serve. They serve a cheese single, plastered on some shitty crust.
i just have this image in my mind. the local coffee shop makes up this whipped cream cheese that is divine and i want some on a slice of blackberry pie as soon as i get a batch of ripe berries. hell yeah.
but of course i'm going to have a sleep paralysis nightmare and the hat man is going to force feed me a pie with some kraft single with the plastic still on it tonight just you watch what did i do to deserve this
Didn't share the good stuff with the hat man.
