Agreed. All Cops Are Bastards, especially the ones who are cruel to animals. That horse doesn’t want to wear that sheriff’s uniform.

Could you link any of those? I’m inclined to believe you but I’d be interested in reading one of the papers.

Not sure why you’re being downvoted, season 1 of Buffy is pretty meh, but Prophecy Girl gives us the first example of what the series becomes, with the balance of humor and drama and horror.

They were barely jokes and not funny.

This is also a good example of the social construction of crime.

Looks like the advice is covered, so let’s talk about your use of the term “boomer” to refer to yourself. You are a millennial, you’re likely too young to have boomer parents.

Where did they incite violence? They posted a list of state legislative leaders after stating that the power to regulate how corporations behave is a power left to the states. Seems like what they are advocating is that people contact their state legislators and demand state level regulation of these corporations.

Indigenous Hawaiians would greet each other by touching foreheads and “sharing breath.” The English colonizers and missionaries thought that was dirty, and were called “ha ole,” “without breath.” Over time, “haole” came to mean “foreigner” and then “white” (after multiple ethnicities would intermarry while white people largely refused to do so.)

More like two different puddles of diarrhea-one from a guy who only eats roadkill and the other from a guy who only eats McDonald’s.

One of my favorite anecdotes is about a (white) professor at University of Hawaii-Manoa who had a white student complain about being called a haole, saying it wasn’t fair that Hawaiians could be “racist” against white people. The professor responded “if you’re white in Hawaii you can be one of three things: a haole, a dumb haole, or a dumb fucking haole.”

I grew up white in Hawaii, and I’m happy to say I was only ever called a haole.

Information about monk seals is all over Hawaii. The idea that this guy who visits frequently and is a fisherman would not know what a monk seal is is absurd. At minimum it should be cause for him to be banned from the state for being too stupid to safely travel there.

Plot twist: the dude is an interior design elitist and was being sarcastic, and the poster cannot perceive sarcasm.

Not a billionaire specifically because he gave a lot of his Apple shares to hourly workers after the IPO because (future billionaire) Steve Jobs decided their contributions didn’t merit shares.

Because Woz is an actual good dude who likes technology but doesn’t hate people.

And a few years later we’d see advanced boob jiggle physics in DOA Beach Volleyball.

Expensive watches are for men who can’t admit they want to wear a bracelet.

I disagree, anyone with sense knew everything Elon claimed about this thing was a lie.

Whoa whoa whoa. The suitors only show up after the rest of the Greeks get back from sacking Troy, so at most they’re there for 8-9 years.

The Citations Needed podcast did an episode breaking apart the idea of “shadow fleets” as basically US propaganda: https://soundcloud.com/citationsneeded/shadow-fleets-sanctions

One of my first hints I was on the spectrum was realizing that after my dad told me to make eye contact, I switched to “scarily intense conversation partner” for this very reason.
