  This is why my favorite youtube commentators is Bell of the Ranch, as one of her favorite lines for a long while now is "Trump is not a source." It also doesn't hurt that she can deliver an incredible amount of snark (especially when sexist right-wing chuds try to hit her with "gotcha" questions), with that sweet, southern "bless your heart" accent.

  I can only hope that Buc-ee’s’ plan to wait for Oliver to get bored of all of this doesn’t work.

  It won't, if there's one thing John Oliver loves, it's commitment to the bit.

  I am autistic and there's nothing wrong with it. And even if vaccines caused it (let's be perfectly clear, it doesn't) it still beats being fucking dead. There's no excuses. VACCINATE YOUR DAMM KIDS.

  For the uninitiated, "genius" and "wealthy son of an apartheid emerald mine owner" look a lot alike.

  Legal Eagle has quite a good take on all of this, saying how some companies even changed their logos to beavers in light of what is happening to Beaver's Mini Mart. So even if they win the suit, they've already lost in the court of public opinion.

  Between Bobby "germ theory is a myth" Kennedy Jr, Trump "the results of more tests makes me look bad" Trump, and a congress that's less effective at babysitting than a drunk uncle, I'm only surprised that its not so much worse.

  No grievance too old, no perceived slight too petty. That's why he's still upset about 2020, even though he won both the elections both before and after, the thought that anyone would ever go against him is simply unbearable. I bet Obama's roast of him back in 2011 still lives in his head rent-free too. I'd say it is a tragic way to live, if he wasn't making it the rest of the world's problem.

  They're no threat to a tyrannical government since they are firmly on the side of the tyrannical government. Being anti anti-fascist means that they absolutely love actual fascists. Even better than ICE are the thugs with the same attitudes that will do the work for free.

  This coming on the backs of them wiping out large swathes of people's media libraries, seemingly with glee, it feels like they really have an attitude that they can treat their customers like shit and still get the sales any way. I hope the market proves them wrong, but given the way every other gamer boycott has gone, I'm not holding my breath.

  They're doing this "cautiously" just like Apple "courageously" removing the headphone jack. I don't know what's worse, the act itself or the condescending attitude and thinking we're dumb enough to fall for it.

  In practice, this discourages the use of VPNs and proxy servers, which millions of people rely on for legitimate purposes such as protecting personal privacy, securing public Wi-Fi connections, safeguarding journalists and activists, and preventing data tracking.

  The purpose of a system is what it does.

  She fucked up when she decided to tell the court the truth. And that’s something Trump will see as unforgivable.

  That's what maga never gets; no matter how long you have been loyal, no matter how much you bend the knee and kiss the ring, it takes just one misstep (hell, just being in the crossfire on a bad day) for him to throw you under the bus. Trump screams "2+2=5" while you're compelled to say "4" to the courts, and that's it, game over. But that won't happen to you,you're one of the "good ones," right? Yeah, that's what they all say.

  Things that seem great on the outside but are a con on the inside is absolutely on-brand for this administration. You'd think they'd be happy or at least appreciate the irony, but they are too thick-headed for even that.

  It's a lose-lose situation situation for Buc-ee's here. They can either take the show to court and lose (Last Week's lawyers are top-tier), or they can do nothing, and have other defendants can point to it and say "this looks much more like your logo than ours does, and you didn't sue them."
