Anyone who knows about Mumia Abu Jamal knows this type of shit is not unique, or even rare.

When I was in 6th grade a server at Pizza Hut accidentally poured boiling grease on my friend's little brother. It was an awful injury that literally scarred him to this day. The investigation into the situation revealed that the server wasn't provided the correct platform for carrying the deep dish, she was bringing out, because they were short, and busy. So they got a big fucking pay-out. They paid the medical bills, including long term cosmetic work, and therapy. They got a big cash pay-out, not sure how much, but it allowed them to recover from their failed business, pay off their loans, and set up trusts for their kids' early adult lives. You know, pay for school, or whatever they needed to get a head-start on adult life.

One of the things they were given was a card that was used for internal corporate reasons. It was basically a free Pizza Hut card. The cashier would type the number into the register, and it would clear the bill. They were given free food for "life", life ended up being about 20 years, ending with yet another decrease in their business. So, at least once a week, their family, and all their kids' friends, would go to Pizza Hut for a big pizza party. During the summer we would often be given the card to get food when they had to be at their business late, which was often. I can no longer smell the particular fried bread smell of their pan pizzas without feeling a little nauseated. Sooo much pizza hut. Some times the local pizzeria would give us a few pies in exchange for letting them order things from PH not on their menu, like wings, so we could get some real pizza about once a week out of it.

Yeah, we spent time learning about this in middle school. it was a question on a class test and one of the standardized tests either the state or the fed requires.

There is store between where my mom lives, and St. Augustine, in Florida that is called the MAGA store, or MAGA headquarters, or something like that. IIRC it's off of A1A.

At first I figured this was a joke about "flyingsquid be everwar, der" but... Maybe you had a nasty argument with this person in the past, and you don't remember them, but because you are one of the more prominent lemmy users, they will always know who you are?

Was the scale of this graphic decided on by an incel?

Yeah, I didn't take that comment as accusatory, just figured I would make my position clear. There is a body of evidence that shows that the more intense someone's homophobia is, the more likely they are to be sexually aroused by homoerotic stuff. However, this does not mean homophobes are likely to be closeted queers. The vast majority of these bigots are not, in fact, homosexuals. However, every public homophobe gets a lot of reactions suggesting they are, often even from gay people. Not great.

Oh, I am not just saying this because she is anti-trans, I am saying this because she has been speaking about her issues with gender for like 20, nearly 20, years now. The more that she came out with, the more hard line anti-trans she showed herself to be. This is probably made all the worse from her trauma from rape. But hey, I am not her psychologist.

I know California gets a lot of shit, but it isn't actually a different country.

Getting a viable candidate that will spurn israel is not something that is going to happen any time soon. This will require a major cultural shift in the US, and that isn't gonna happen easily. This is the sickening state of reality, life is cheap, and most people do not give a fuck.

oh yeah, i know about her, she is putting that stuff into the mainstream. Worst part is, she is likely so touchy about this because of her own gender identity issues that she has ignored rather than resolve.
