I clung to Reddit for too long even though it sucked because it was awesome years ago and it was a habit.
One I joined here I started laughing again. Lemmy is so fun and funny. Reddit is just full of bots that don't know what humor is and petty people who forgot how to laugh.
I think she ate all the other creepy Black Hole Sun people and now she's the Black Hole Sun Boss.
Can you imagine waking up and seeing that face staring at you?
Who approved this photo btw? Was this the best one of all of them they took? How much money do you have to have to get someone to help you look better than that in a photo? Like what?
Edit: oh no, whatever you do, do not zoom in, trust me
You had me at Ulfberth War-Bear.
I was told they would be watching...
I don't see the triangles. Is it because I have trials too? Now I'm paranoid.
I feel like the tiny little uptick in the red line at the end is just a lie to try to give us a smidge of hope.
I feel like this could be turned into a haiku:
I threw my back out
while loading the dishwasher
wearing my sweater
You have to go even further back to 1980 when Chump, as a landlord in NYC, evicted a 74 year old widowed stroke victim by sending tough guys to her apartment. They came in and took her stuff and kicked her out. He's heartless.
Of course you're right, and I would argue that calling a woman a "fat, ugly pig" stems from the associations I point out.
The pig insult is so common, I think we're all trying to understand why such a common and known insult would be so much more shocking to us. It isn't just because it comes from a sitting US president. Trump is known for his viscous insults and we've all heard them.
Saying, "quiet, piggy" was a mask slip more revealing than many of us can even consciously comprehend.
I grew up in the 70s and 80s when it was acceptable for parents to physically beat their children, and when when I saw this clip of Trump it shocked me because the look on his face, the finger pointing, and the sound of his voice was exactly how my father looked and sounded right before he would take off his belt to beat us with it. I can't be the only one who has these memories.
Also using the word "piggy" is revealing of how he sees people. Pigs are associated with slaughter and murder in nearly all of our stories. We kill and eat pigs. The upper classes see the rest of us as pigs to harvest and slaughter and consume. In their eyes how dare a lowly pig meant for their dinner plates question them and talk back to them. What Trump did and said revealed all this horror.
Not where I am. They turned off the old ones--even the ones that were in parks. I see one here and there but they used to be literally everywhere. Every store had one either inside or out front. Every park had them. Every downtown area had them at every block.
