You’re probably a smart person. But you should know this post is very dumb.

It’s definitely a blow for the “the civil war wasn’t about slavery” crowd lol. Like I’m all for not judging the past by modern morals and acting like confederates weren’t as human as the rest of us… but pretending the civil war had nothing to do with slavery is simply a farce.

There’s 1,300 unsheltered homeless people in Denver. This hotel has near 200 rooms. With space in each room for multiple residents, this can put a major dent into the amount of homeless on the street if it’s used exclusively for that purpose. Plus, other homeless shelters in the Denver/Boulder area are spread crazy thin as it is. It’ll take a massive effort to keep it from going downhill but I think it can be done.

I like what you’re proposing, but I think this idea is just addressing a different goal. Plus there are probably better places than a hotel to integrate homeless into low/medium income society.

For the majority of Americans, as long as you are a pleasant person, you will have pleasant conversations, even if it’s about a disagreement.

Bechdel test should also account for scenes where a female character shoves a sword into a man’s face tbh

Absolutely incredible composition

Best RPG I’ve ever played and I’m 95% positive that’s not just recency bias talking.

I really like that basketball is growing across the globe, but it’s straight up ignorant to insinuate the NBA championship isn’t the single biggest achievement in basketball. Maybe that will change, but it won’t be for a good while.

And yet still leaves a full 2.5 hours for extras like sleep, wife, or children.

Yep.

Sounds like I’m not that boring then 😤

Goo goo ga ga, mother.

10/10 headline. 5/10 article.

It’s naive to think the UK is somehow immune to the polarization we suffer in American politics.

🤷‍♂️ then you’re talking to different people than me idk what to tell ya

Well yeah, but that’s not worth posting a thread over lol. Kinda obvious.

As a states rights fan, I hate that they’re largely positioned as a conservative platform. Or should I say, I hate that conservatives have co-opted states rights to further their regressive, religious agenda. I put a lot of stock in the laboratories of democracy idea: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laboratories_of_democracy

I often wonder if memers from the advice animals era would laugh at this stuff or fear for the future.

Where would you rank him on this list?

People will continue to clown Ja (and rightfully so) but the truth is he’d be so damn good with this group.
