That would actually make the husband look worse than the wife.

So Elongated Muskard bought 9% of Twitter shares. I wonder what shit show he will try to impose.
Not that any social media is doing well combating hate speech and fake news. -
Well shitty as it is it’s tactically a somewhat better idea than what Trump and his lackey his have done.

Normally, I would be concerned, but Twitter is such a vile cesspool, it's hard to imagine him actually making it worse.

Are we sure that's not a Banksy?
I don't think so, but I could be wrong. I just noticed a second OP reference on the bottom left with the crew posing for Vivi as they leave Alabasta. Imagine how many people it took to make that.

Either way I'm impressed.Reddits kind of new to me, so the idea of making some collaborative artwork by users around the world is just cool.

It's not a Banksy, r/place has been a thing for a while, and it's fascinating.

How the fuck does this happen for 12 fucking years? Sarah Lawrence really needs to get more on top:

It's not a Banksy, r/place has been a thing for a while, and it's fascinating.
It was a joke.

If anybody here shops on Etsy, know that there's a week-long strike going on:

Among other things, the big one is that after a year of record-breaking profits from all the independent artisans/sellers, the site decided to increase their fee from 5% to 6.5%. Because yeah, when you're doing really well might as well squeeze more money out of the people making your money in the first place.

And now poor Salman Rushie has been stabbed multiple times (including the throat) on stage, but apparently is now slowly recovering. That'll take months/years, but at least he's not dead.

Amtrak cancels all long-distance trains ahead of potential freight rail shutdown
Amtrak said it has canceled all long-distance passenger trains scheduled for Thursday ahead of a potential freight rail shutdown as rail workers and freight companies remain at a stalemate in contract negotiations.
The passenger rail service's heavily used Northeast Corridor will largely be spared of the cancelations, Amtrak said, and its high-speed Acela trips will remain on schedule. Amtrak also canceled several state-supported services for Thursday evening.
Although Amtrak is not a party in the labor dispute and doesn't carry freight, the move is more fallout from lingering disagreements between freight rail unions and railroad companies before a looming negotiating deadline Friday.

Hey, remember that douche lady who was "trans-racial"? I.E. the one who darkened her skin and changed her hair to pretend to be black so she could be a professor in African studies? Well, apparently she has an OnlyFans page. And yes, she's still "black".

"Allison fired a shot at the sedan and sped off"
"Hale pulled out his gun when he realized his daughter had been shot"Subjectively speaking, in my heart of hearts, I understand Hale's response there.
I don't condone the escalation, but I understand where the "OH HELL NO" revenge impulse came from.Objectively speaking though, they're both still collossal dumbasses.
Upon realizing his daughter was shot, hale should have just pulled over and immediately called 911.
Let the police catch and deal with the other guy while you focus on getting your daughter some help.
Fighting fire with fire only brought you more consequences.Alas, realizing this would require some logic.
So would never letting things escalate that far in the first place.
The best drivers drive defensively. If someone is giving you trouble,
you should always safely seperate your vehicles instead of engaging or retaliating. -

Don’t you see Hale had no duty to retreat he was within his rights to stand his ground and deal with the situation personally
you should always safely seperate your vehicles instead of engaging or retaliating.
“Nah I wanna threaten and kill someone for having the temerity to cut me off or refuse to let me pass them”.
People can’t help being dumb and miserable.
