Cool to learn from this botulinum scare that all of these different coffees are all the same coffee just branded differently. I wonder what the price difference is between the most expensive and cheapest ones. Don't you just love capitalism? fda.gov/media/179493/download?attachment

Completely mind melted by how amazing this embroidery by peacocksandpinecones.co.uk is. Zoom in on the detail

Anyone who knows some Persian able to tell me whether the Iranian reformist presidential candidate Pezeshkian’s name means ‘Doctors’ or whether it means ‘in a doctorly manner?’

Above and below, the orange, which was now under some pressure, deformed to make a nearly perfect seal against my teeth. I hadn't previously been aware of how much oxygen one needs to consume an orange, but I was made aware of it now by its sudden and ongoing lack.

Wait this is actually the one I think about most. Reskeet with a tweet you still think about

Lately for some reason this one has come to mind a lot

Lol I did not know this existed. The senator was basically like, "Taking shit Thurs. Dropping piles of digested banana pepper hoagie RingBurn got out of control. Thank god for Pepto Bismal help get undr cntrl. CloggedTheToiletDrainToo"

PantsBurnLegWound is probably the oldest tweet I still think about sometimes. Can’t believe it was 15 years ago.

It's crazy how much Farage's party can both lose and sabotage the Tories at the same time

I Got Pregnant with the Tyrant’s Child on Tappytoon

Lol it's true. Federalist Papers #69 says "The President [...] would be liable to be impeached, tried, and, upon conviction of treason, bribery, or other high crimes or misdemeanors, removed from office; and would afterwards be liable to prosecution and punishment in the ordinary course of law."

Yeah, not like this. The context for #70 was the existing Articles of Conf., which had no distinct executive. Even at the Convention, they discussed the idea of a multiple exec.The real kicker? Read #69. AH argued we need not fear a tyrannical pres b/c CHECKS, BALANCES, LIABLE for crimes, treason.

RIP Robert Towne, this is still one of the most chilling summaries of the nature of greed I’ve ever encountered in fiction

White House Down (June 2013) is a prequel to Olympus Has Fallen (March 2013). It explains how the president and the head of his secret service first became friends. Channing Tatum plays young Gerard Butler, and Jamie Foxx plays young Aaron Eckhart, before he turned white

In White House Down the president of Iran has an Arab name, al-Sharif

Imagine if the federal govt delayed the election in light of the decision of Trump's very eligibility now being put off until September at least. The reaction would be pretty nuts

The United States has always been a democracy for some and a brutal authoritarian regime for others, and the effort to expand it to democracy for all has led to a 70+ year backlash culminating in SCOTUS claiming that kings are totes cool and also judges are the ones to coronate them

Life expectancy in Sub-Saharan Africa is 47 years. Without HIV, it'd be 67. Only about 5% of HIV research concerns the strain that exists in Africa, despite 70% of all HIV on earth being that strain.

Bravely fighting back against those who say Trump will be kind to the people of Gaza

Trump tells his rally crowd Chuck Schumer has “become a Palestinian.” Second time this week he’s used “Palestinian” to describe non-Palestinians he dislikes as if the word is a slur. I remain skeptical of the claim that Trump becoming president next year would improve the lives of Palestinians.

Still not over shitlibs saying "Well we aren't gonna build an alternative in time by November starting now," as if no one suggested we do that years, decades ago, and as if those same shitlibs weren't sabotaging the building of said alternative all the way.

Facebook can be best understood as a kind of abandonware full of bored senior citizens being scammed

I can't stop wondering why Facebook just doesn't ban the AI slop www.businessinsider.com/meta-faceboo...

Genocide. It is the fucking genocide for many voters

I can’t think of any way that forming a firewall on super tuesday of the 2020 election to ratfuck the M4A candidate and hand it to the oldest most anti-M4A candidate would backfire 4 years later when that really old guy gets 4 years older

anyway I can’t think of any way that unceremoniously ejecting the incumbent Dem president from the ticket, four months before the election, with no agreement on a successor, no process to pick one, and most people pushing the idea assuming it WON’T be the vice presidents, could possibly backfire
