Tweedle Dumb and Tweedle Dumber.

A flat tax favors the wealthy because that 13% would only be paid by the poorest of the poor since they wouldn't be able to contest it while the rich would still have all the available loopholes and resources to avoid paying any taxes at all. Consider that the corporate tax was something like 31% on profits and yet most if not all of the biggest of the bigs were technically paying less in taxes than the average middle class individual. After loopholes, there are years in which someone like Amazon paid $0 in taxes despite being massively profitable. It also favors the wealthy because even if they did pay the straight amount, the poor would notice the loss far more. If you only have $100 to your name and it's flat taxed at 13%, you are going to notice that missing $13 even if its 'only' $13. 13% on a million is $130,000 which sounds like a lot when you don't have it but its nothing to someone who already has all their bills taken care of and a paid roof over their head. Yeah, I'm being simplistic on it but it's been a long week. Basically, flat tax isn't the answer. Super gluing shut all the loopholes and treating the rich tax cheats with the same level of venom that the average person expects to receive if they skipped on their filing would be better starts. And yes, treating those tax havens as taxable.

Bitchcakes deciding to hold still for a standing pic before going back to bed. She just had her meds and hand feeding.

If Netanyahu thinks we've been holding things back, maybe we should show him exactly what holding things back actually looks like. They've broken the rules for our providing aid, we are well within our rights to withhold all aid at this time. Maybe give him a consolation box of Band-Aides.

Millions upon millions upon millions of taxpayer dollars were spent so a fat lard could go golfing every week at his own personal resorts. We the taxpayer still get the bills for his 'staycations' due to him charging the shit out of having the Secret Service around and he gets to set the rates without limits. Which would YOU prefer taxpayer funds go towards - attempts to get food and medical supplies into a war zone or a fat lard's new fleet of golf carts with the usual banquet table of Big Macs on stand-by?

We like our peace and quiet. We enjoy our fika [ coffee-time with conversation ]. And if our nearest neighbor is miles away, we are absolutely fine with that. We also take the garbage out in -30'F in our shorts. Don't mess with us.

Claiming that Biden is going to be dosed up on meds in order to function is rich coming from someone absolutely hooked on flu meds and will likely need a whole lot of something to stay on topic for any length of time. Remember boys and girls, every accusation is actually a confession! Honestly, he's just trying to pretend his up coming fail is just him throwing it because it's already been settled that mics will be turned off during opponent's speaking time so he's going to look like a silent mumbling child in the background unless he starts screaming and/or actively shitting his pants.

“He just left four days ago with $60 billion, and he gets home, and he announces that he needs another $60 billion. It never ends,” Drumpf whispered to himself while gazing in the mirror.

Oh good. I was very very worried that I wouldn't be able to get those pills that make you look like you just did chili rectally.

That's all very well and good until you look back at a four-year run where Executive Orders were signed in monogrammed sharpie marker and fry grease fingerprints when they weren't just being outright twitted at 3a and virtually every last republican in Congress couldn't stop applauding. And whenever there's a democrat in the WH, republicans suddenly decide that they need to be the ultimate checks and balances to that person's supposed attempts at tyranny - usually by doing as little as possible, aiming for performative acts instead of intelligent acts, and outright blocking anything that might help the American people because that's automatically something that is a win for the WH and not frickin' Americans.

The reason I could take a punch before I entered kindergarten and the reason I needed a cane when I got to college is long dead. I told him what he'd die of and got beaten for it. Then again, he'd beat me just for existing most of the time. The first born is supposed to be a boy after all. He was told that the next time I show up in the area, it would be for his death. He died one day after I was brought back to the old stomping grounds of exactly what I told him of decades earlier. His soul is currently banned from the main house and stuck in the red garage because f him.

Netanyahu was always going to keep bombing civilian-heavy areas flat. It doesn't matter what is being 'reported' because as long as people are being herded into 'safe' zones, there's a plan to raze the area.

Bump stocks use the recoil of firing to cause a semi-automatic to fire cartridges at a nearly automatic rate. They are kidding themselves by playing the narrow narrative with this - the only reason for a bump stock is to literally turn a semi- into as close to a fully-automatic as possible 'without breaking the law'. Well, it was deemed a law breaker by someone who IS a law breaker. And someone should run an audit to see who has been getting [ and forgetting to file ] 'gifts' from gun lobbyists.

Flailing Morons vs. Mifepristone take two : SCOTUS: So you've been personally and physically injured by the use of Mifepristone? Sentient Paid Fart: Absolutely. SCOTUS: And you are here to attest to the fullest of your abilities that said injury proves that its continued availability to the public at large is worthy of being halted until such a time, if any, it is proven to be safe for use of which it is currently listed for? Sentient Paid Fart: Its bad and wrong and I got hurt. Ban it for the babies! SCOTUS: Kindly elaborate on the nature of your injuries and how you feel that taking Mifepristone was the direct cause of such. Sentient Paid Fart: I suffered horrible constipation, migraines, cramping, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and eventually massive bloody shits. I blame the baby killer drug for all this. If I hadn't shoved the entire box up my ass and then done a power slam on the ground to make sure it got fully up there, none of this would have happened. SCOTUS: ...Thomas, Alito, Kavanaugh, two of you ticket-selling assclowns are leaving by the nearest window. Five minutes or all three of you had better chugged some Red Bulls.

Red stains and it just pisses me off.

The only thing that I ask is to please retain the blue liquid for those frickin' maxi pad commercials. It's blue for a reason! Also these are now a thing and I keep getting e-mails about buying some.

Flag dragging apparently is only patriotism when it's some red hat wearing moron attaching it to their extra large truck. Flying a big flag off the back of your truck blocks the view for both yourself and others around you while driving. You can't see if someone is coming up in the lane you are about to merge into because there's a big stupid flag flapping in the way. At stops, depending on the way the wind is blowing, it can snap into the faces of pedestrians just walking by on the sidewalk or at cyclists if there's a bike lane there. There's a reason that sort of display is supposedly only for parades - parades have specific routes, everyone knows its happening, and only registered participants are on the street at that time. Flag dragging like that also scums up the flag with road debris and exhaust. The placement lends it to potentially get caught on the tire too which will rip the flag, drag it across the road and potentially get it wound up in the axel - snapping that. Or it will get wound up in the axel of the poor idiot stuck behind the flag dragger.

You seem to be skipping completely over how the IDF also killed 3 hostages while blowing the hell out of over 200 civilians with an additional 400 wounded. By that account, they only technically rescued 1 hostage since the other three were paid for by the blood of the three the IDF themselves murdered at the exact same time. And you also seem to be skipping over how maybe, just maybe, someone is being forced to play jailer because THEIR family members just happen to be 'somewhere'. You seem to be completely oblivious to something that is so well known its used in movies as a trope - the 'I'm a villain because they have my [ insert family member here ]'.

I was fine with it until the nipple.

That's why I can't just jump to racism either without more info. Every time someone screams racism for something that turns out isn't, I feel like some moron is going to use that instance to insist that nothing is ever racist.

It was a spider. It's Australia - it was DEFINITELY a spider.

Behold, a Drumpf rally. Like I said, I'm fine with being proven wrong. I'm not necessarily defending anyone until there's more to go with on this but did feel like pointing out the possibility of it being very personal and not race related. I also didn't watch that whole hour+ video attached to the article to see what the general make-up of the receiving line was. If it was an obvious mix of people, it was obviously personal. If that was the only black person in the line, less likely just personal.

And it only cost 94 civilians! Fantastic! Amazing! Add those to the ones, mostly children, blown to hell when they 'precision targeted' that school earlier this week and they are absolutely on fire.

Oh yeah, its an arts and crafts store. I'll get some lump ooze in looking for help and they'll show some tator-fone pic of the street craft in question and want to know if I can get all the stuff they need to make it. 'What exactly is that blurry glare?' 'It's a 3D miniature of the entire Milky Way created from filigree'd silver horse hair wire and handblown seed beads carefully polished with yak hide on imported French hooks. I need all that stuff for a pair of earrings and also I need you to make them for me and I only have $10 and a linty mint to pay for it all so don't screw with me on the price.' I don't hide things but I do keep a general eye out for things with horrible flaws/spelling errors that managed to make it past quality control to try to buy one before I either have to make a quality report on it myself or a recall comes through. Bad idea products are always the best. I have a little ceramic ghost around here somewhere playing with his nipple for crying out loud.

Like 3ngag3 said, it was one of those episodes that was skipped. The reason it was skipped though was because of the bad behavior illustrated by the possessed kids like flipping the teacher's skirt to show her underpants, breaking windows and attempted sexual assault [ ie grabbing Usagi and threatening to forcibly give her a kiss ]. Episode 5 was also skipped for the same type of reason - bad behavior, only this time in the form of animal abuse.
