Drunkard's Walk Forums

I tend not to reply to these Twitter hot takes because 90% of the replies would be the same eight words: "But the world is more complicated than that."

The other 10% of the time, the replies would be, "Oh yeah? You and what army?"

Hey Putin, you big dumb idiot. If you’re killing people in Ukraine because you are afraid of NATO then you really fucked up. You are the monster that reminded people why NATO was created.

Feel free to sub in the name of your local leader in the last panel.

And in the meantime, idiots in pony cars treat the frontage road near my apartment as their personal dragstrip.

So, turns out that last image there? Not a joke. It is, in fact, an actual "model letter" being distributed among teachers' groups in Florida as a response to the "Don't Say Gay" law, which is (of course) very vaguely written so as not to appear as deliberately homophobic/transphobic as it is intended to be. In a classic case of malicious compliance, the teachers are making a point of adhering to the exact wording of the law instead of embracing the implicit but unwritten exemption of heteronormative language as the Florida House expected them to.

Naturally, this is making the bigots freak out.

My only question is how you pronounce "Mx." Help me, Googleman!

Hm, well, discounting the hilarous text-to-speech fail of the video that proclaims it to be "em-kays, or em-kays," it's apparently just "Məks." Okay then.

"Mexico"

I know that this isn't a tweet screencap, but I couldn't find a more appropriate thread for it... so please pardon the intrusion of a political image in the "politics images" thread.

You have no idea what you're up against, Siggy, you sweet summer child.

Here?  They do what the Germans do, only for the opposing team.

For those who so lack in taste, they can lick the arse out of a scuttering skunk and think it's a chocolate donut:

Oh for fuck's sake, that's in really poor taste. Par for the course here anymore; you aren't Right enough unless you dollop on a large amount of offense for people not even involved in the specific argument. Well, specifically the shirt.
