The kennedy clan are known to be very protective of their reputation, hence being so reluctant to speak out about the insane russian asset in the family.

I’m going to enjoy watching their family name associated with the largest rise in preventable deaths in american history. At least until I contract polio.

I messaged it to you. Please report back if you remain alive and internetted.

“Fear coded” is an interesting construction. That is easier to say than “betrays a fear based thought process”, which is what it sounds like to me. Different enough from something like ‘fearful thinking’ that I can see why it would be used.

The Pleiadian stuff is just too much nonsense for me to want to understand anything used in that context.

I searched just ‘pleiadian’ on google and got both an ‘About’ and the 3rd result linking to a misspelled PDF on IRS.gov about “ancier& extraterrestrials” Um what? I’ve never been so tempted to click a link that I know I shouldn’t click.

refers to all of her thoughts as “codes”

I’ve never heard of such a thing. Can anyone point me to a real life example? I’d love to see exactly how that’s used.

First time I quit i was sick and cigarettes tasted awful for a week, so I figured if I had already gone a week without I might as well quit. Whenever I got a craving I thought about how disgusting they tasted with a cold, and imagined spongey lungs filling with black tar till I gave myself a shiver of disgust.

I started up again years later while traveling, then quit for good while visiting my parents for 2 months - I know I’m too embarrassed to smoke around my parents.

When asked about the aid levels, Miller acknowledged Israel has “failed” to meet US requests so far but said there was still time until the 30-day deadline and that the US wouldn’t give a “grade” to Israel just yet. “It’s not the end of the semester. You don’t give out – you don’t hand out grades in the middle,” he said while laughing.

Calling that a joke seems… generous.

Is it equivalent to burning the cross? The Swedish flag?

No, it’s definitely not. You have to look at the social context of the act, not just the act itself.

To use the most obvious examples, burning an american flag in protest of the vietnam war is clearly an expression of political speech, whereas burning a cross on the lawn of an african-american family’s house is an incitement to violence.

A fascist burning the koran is clearly an incitement to violence and hatred, and not legitimate political speech worth protecting.

When I worked in a mall, there were no staff toilets. So I was subjected to a slightly less extreme version of that maybe 2-3 times a week.

I call that symphony “ringing the taco bells”.

If you honestly believed that democracts and republicans are identical on israel and you care about human suffering you’d look at all the other ways that trump and his fascists have promised to brutalize everyone who’s not them and minimize human suffering by voting for a democrat.

Trump killing trans people, immigrants and palestinans is not a moral victory for opponents of our genocide in gaza.

Yeah, that makes it very hard to vote for them, I feel that. But that’s a problem that gets worse by not voting for a democrat.

Republicans have promised to genocide harder and trump has already been coordinating with netanyahu to counter anything that might reduce palestinans deaths.

I don’t like it either but it’s time to be an adult, do the unpleasant thing, and vote for a democrat.

Don’t vote “for/against whoever”. Vote against trump like an adult - that means voting democrat.

Sure, picking between two options that you don’t want is legitimately hard for human brains to do. But republicans have promised and begun to brutalize minorities at ever larger scales, and are objectively worse than democrats on everything that matters.

Handing the reins of state power to fascists has never improved life for leftists or humanity.

If someone reads my comment, and they’our not sure if I’m serious our not, that’s ok with me.

Rebury the disarticulated ochre-painted bones of an important deceased community member!

Yeah, I’ve never seen or heard that either. I’m sure there our plenty of dialects where those two words sounds similar or identical.

“Edomite!”

I was getting onto a bus, someone looked me over and spat out the word. It was clear from the tone that it was an insult, but it also sounded suspiciously bronze age, so I was very excited to find out what it meant.

Turns out it’s a biblical reference used by some black nationalist groups in the US to refer to white people as unclean or diseased. Edom was one of several late bronze age Canaanite kingdoms. At one point the torah describes them as slightly paler and dirty, hence the insult.

I really love seeing a well curated list, and that’s a well curated list.

There are many contributing factors. Part of it is russian and american oligarchs spending heaps of cash to amplify any and every message that could help trump win.

It really shows that netanyahu’s genocidal attempt to cling to power are not just brutal, inhumane and a risk to the whole region, but also strongly against israel’s own interests.

It’s a jeebus said so thing. Babies need to be baptized and sinners need to be sent to hell.
