Don’t steal, obvs, but being understaffed kind of limits what you’re able to do. Plus both duty managers are on the bell to the police instead of managing? Not ideal.

R*ghead might also refer to avid tabloid consumers. Mailrats, Suncunts and Mirror-geezers.

"America bad" has actually insufficient explanatory power for why Jacobin et al shill so hard for Russia, given that America has in fact actively switched sides to support Russia. There is something deeper and more pathological here.

Sarah Hanson-Young has been so much better on the topic. Shoebridge seems genuinely dumb.

“Don’t burn your bridges. You need allies, and we are an ally,” Shoebridge said, according to sources familiar with the meeting who asked to remain anonymous to discuss sensitive matters. What a nasty little dickhead.

He’s been told to take his shit elsewhere but every week, I have to tip his little abandoned pamphlets into the bin. And, to be honest, it makes me a little sad.

There’s another old man who comes in and has a tight act, but his is an offer of happiness, and that happiness can be attained by reading a pamphlet from the JW’s Watchtower.

And these dudes are out grinding on the regular, spinning their outdated shit on retail workers for nothing but a forced chuckle. The only funny thing the comedian had to say was that people told him to give it a rest, ‘But I have to joke!’

When Joe Rogan assumes there are only a few hundred comics out there, risking their skin, and doing The Work, of being a standup, he ignores the millions of men who were told once by a woman who took pity on them, that they were funny, just to be rid of them.

Tells me ‘Mr Bean’s birthday is on January 6th, same as me,’ and I’m now wondering if he’s going to tell me more about that date, assuming he even knows Mr. Bean is a fictional character, but he ends on the dick tattoo joke and leaves.

Had an old dude in a trilby attempt to do a tight five comedy routine on me while I was working. He did two jokes, Semen Convention and Sexy Lady on a Tired Horse before telling me he shares a birthday with Mr. Bean.

nicholas's relationship with rasputin is like. this classic, almost stereotypical case. in which the family desperate for anyone able to save their child gets taken advantage of by a conniving charismatic scammer. except that the family is literally the least sympathetic family on earth

I know some people just want to cast the United States as ontologically, irreparably evil, but there's something to the idea of framing political movements through the lens of "we're just trying to live up to our stated ideals" *That* resonates with people broadly

This kinda framing is how you get a whole bunch of people believing Taiwan is a restive rebel territory trying to separate rather than already de facto independent under threat of invasion

This is just American Exceptionalism. The Taliban and Kim regimes are both barbarous and the US has simply expressed an interest in joining their club. Deal with it.

The Daily Mail used an image of ex-IDF soldier and right wing agitator Avi Yemini as an example of pro-Palestine protesters “clashing” with cops. Righto. It’s been more than 36 hours since this article went live and despite a campaign for a correction by News Cord, the image is still up.

This is sexual violence as a form of terrorism. It is political violence and it is chilling and horrific, and AOC was absolutely right to be terrified that the goons (now pardoned) laying siege to the capital would rape her if they found her. Small changes won't fix this. FLIP THE TABLE NOW
