The Onion@midwest.social•Supporters Praise Trump For Upholding Traditional American Value Of Supporting Murderous Dictators For Political GainEnglish
16·1 year agoIt’s almost seven years old, but sadly, more relevant today than it’s ever been.

666·1 year agoMeh. Only suckers give a shit about the “generosity” of billionaires. Tax them. Tax them down to millionaire status. Why should they dictate what programs get funded? It’s never worked before… it’s not suddenly going to start now.
I mean, your own tumblr link is proof of that. After all, Gotham’s still a crime ridden shithole, isn’t it? Clearly Bruce Wayne doesn’t know what Gotham actually needs.

18·1 year agoSeconded, but they just go by Tuta now.
Yep, she was a good girl that definitely deserved better. Tasty treats? Yes. Becoming the face of Elon Musk’s neo-fascist movement? No.

45·1 year agoThe only reason you know this is satire is because it implies Trump listens to his supporters.

Downvoting because of the blue checkmark.
Sorry for being so pedantic, but I don’t want to support Twitter’s pay-for-engagement system, or anything about Twitter at all, even indirectly through a screenshot.
Downvoting because of asinine slacktivism. It’s a screenshot posted in a community that’s almost entirely screenshots of tweets. Get a grip.

2·1 year agoI might be biased but I feel like this was a bit funnier when I posted it the first time, 10 hours before you.

The Onion@midwest.social•Jeff Dunham’s Most Racist Puppet Tapped to Host White House Correspondents’ DinnerEnglish
3·1 year agoThanks for confirming. I was pretty sure it was the same, but I had to switch to an iPhone for work several years ago so I wasn’t sure that was still the case.

3·1 year agoAaaah, yeah, it’s a pain in the butt to try memorizing keyboard shortcuts for characters you’re probably not using very often. Sorry my reply wasn’t relevant!

I’m not sure about android devices, but if you’re using an iphone you can long-press ‘N’ and it’ll pull up non-english character options. Same applies for every letter.

35·1 year agoThe worst part is, he’s actually a talented ventriloquist. But he also just so happens to be a racist hack comedian. Like, damn dude, you spent years honing your craft and this is what you decided to do with your skills? What a waste.
Wanna know how I know you didn’t read that? Because it doesn’t disagree with me. Coca Cola popularized the modern depiction of Santa Claus.
One might therefore fairly grant Coca-Cola some credit for cementing the modern image of Santa Claus in the public consciousness, as in an era before the advent of television, before color motion pictures became common, and before the widespread use of color in newspapers, Coca-Cola’s magazine advertisements, billboards, and point-of-sale store displays were for many Americans their primary exposure to the modern Santa Claus image. But at best what Coca-Cola popularized was an image they borrowed, not one they created.
Notice how I didn’t say they created it, nor did I say they invented it? I said they popularized it.
Secondly, I did Google it. And according to that, around 500AD Valentines day was originally established to honor the Saint
Yes. So your claim that Christmas has been “celebrated for hundreds (or even thousands) of years before coke existed. Valentine’s Day wasn’t.” is incorrect. We’re done here.
Tell you what, how about you go google “The Feast of St. Valentine” and then we’ll pick this conversation back up. Sound good?
There’s a clear difference between the longstanding traditions behind Christmas/Yule and the capitalism-driven Valentine’s Day sales event. And we all know it.
Yes, like jolly old Santa Claus dressed up in his red and white suit as popularized by… Coca Cola in the ‘30s. You’re right, Christmas is totally different than Valentine’s Day.


Yeah, that’s pretty damn ugly.
