My dad is the coolest most scrappiest Appalachian mountain man who managed to escape the cult of republicanism 2 decades ago. This is one remnant, those damn sunglasses, from those days, and I try not to judge but I do cringe a bit. He fucking despises Trump and Republicans, mind you.
Like sunglasses can be cool. I despise richard nixon but having a bunch of dudes in wayfarers behind him in his speeches did look cool. Maybe your dad would like to embrace the wayfarer look?
I’ve gotten death threats for posting Kirk’s own words about acceptable gun deaths and dismissing empathy, sometimes in the same breath as calling out the “violent left”, while not knowing the ideology of the shooter. They’re fucking insane.
Lol I've just calmly expressed how easily the red hat would make it to dome them at a distance, not one has considered continuing the conversation past that, like yes those are my ideas actually.
I watch some random YouTube videos sometimes, when auto play is on it just plays another random video while i do chores for example. A video owas playing where some guys motorcycle broke down and some random guys helped him. The put it in their barn and worked hard to fix it. In the back was this huge trump 2024 flag just hanging out.
To me it's genuinely weird to see. A part ofe thought: "oh no, these people are real and not just on the internet."
And how can you be so nice and so fucking stupid at the same time?
Human tribalism at its finest. We really only associate a few hundred people as fully human in our social group at one time.
Take of care of people in your group. People from other groups are less than human and should all be exterminated. It's a highly selected for trait from human evolutionary history.
..."tribalism" is a hard-to-escape fact of human neurology simply because many human brains are not adapted to working with large populations
Outside of the primitive communism of our hunter/gatherer days we’ve never had a society that is free from a ruling class that sows discord and division to protect themselves. I wouldn’t be so sure that tribalism is innately human and not something that we have been conditioned to by millennia of rule by psychopaths.
Not so much to do with the current designation of clowder, but rather I was inspired by the origin of the word.
A variation, recorded since 1801, of clutter, itself from clot, from Old English clott (“round mass, lump”), from Proto-Germanic *klūtaz (hence cognate with Dutch kloot (“ball, testicle”), Danish klods (“a block, lump”) and German Klotz (“lump, block”)).
As for murder, I think labelling them with their intent is simply a good idea.
I've nothing against crows or cats, but the person who coined their respective collective nouns probably did.
I'm a middle-aged white guy, salt-and-pepper-goatee. Let them think I am MAGA. When I speak out on them in public, they have been surprised. And now I have to go armed, non-stop, and it sucks.

Given the skin tone and sunglasses, one could put that picture of the suspect they're looking for in there and see if anyone notices
.... like do they think cheap knockoff sunglasses from a gas station make them look cool? Its got some weird 14 year old boy energy.

How else do you attract 14yr old boys?
Well thats a terrifying revelation.
On at least two different levels
It could be argued which is worse, but it's the same people doing it anyway.
It's cause that's when they peaked.
It's when they peaked mentally, too.
No no, they make up the cool by taking a picture from the drivers seat of their 12 year old Ford Escape.
I like that sort of glasses for driving. Don't need to be expensive to be good for that

funniest thing to me is this is exactly how the "person of interest" dressed.
just, well played m'lord
The median voter strikes again
I was looking for his pic in the group. Missed opportunity imo
Why do they always have terrible profile photos. Sunglasses and the same dumb expression.
Because they're in the same cult.
Not only is conformity encouraged, but deviating from their group norms even slightly is met with suspicion if not outright fear and hostility.
Plus that's what people who are emotionally stuck in adolescence and/or the 80s think looks cool.

I agree with you 100%
Hey leave the 80s out of this. Some of us from that time period are not terrible people.
True. I was born during the 80s and thought sunglasses were automatically SUPER cool until well into the 90s myself.
That doesn't make me a terrible and/or extremely cringe person, but never progressing from that does, is my point 😉

Cannot for a moment leave a shred of evidence that he even knows what an attractive man might look like.
What an exhausting existence.
Lol I'd just answer I don't know what any of them look like and go on with my day
That's not it their dumb expression, that's their dumb faces.
A felon that then pardoned people responsible for the deaths of five police officers who died stopping an attempted coup from said felon.
Right, real mavericks wear monocles and rhyme every so often but not every time. That's the kinda maverick I want avenging me.
I want the Mavericks to avenge the night away for me.
There's no cognitive dissonance where there's no cognition.
Just letting you know you've forced my hand and I'm stealing that line. 👍
Half these guys have a secret Grindr
What’s the collective noun for chunguses?
It’s gotta be Chungi, right?
They're talking about a collection of animals, not the plural form of the word (which chunguses is). Like a group of crows is called a murder.
I think the plural should be chungi, and the collective noun either a clowder, or a murder.
Why would you besmirch cats and crows that way? The collective noun should be something vaguely derogatory, like "heap" or "clump."
The collective noun should be bag of dicks. Or bag for short.
Not so much to do with the current designation of clowder, but rather I was inspired by the origin of the word.
As for murder, I think labelling them with their intent is simply a good idea.
I've nothing against crows or cats, but the person who coined their respective collective nouns probably did.
Ok, I did not know the origin of clowder, and retract my earlier objection.
A flange.

Looks suspiciously like the same pictures that keep messaging me on grindr. Coincidence?
Well, if there was an AI bot swarm to try to affect public opinion, and they needed to generate profile pics...
I'm a middle-aged white guy, salt-and-pepper-goatee. Let them think I am MAGA. When I speak out on them in public, they have been surprised. And now I have to go armed, non-stop, and it sucks.
Pretty sure I’ve argued with that tnn jerkoff but who knows theres probably 20 that look exactly like him
It must be really bright where they all live. And they must live in their cars. Also they like denim.
In reality it's just yet another example of rightie on rightie violence.
