Thank you, Senator McCarthy, you're a true American hero

implying "the covid years" are over

As an American, Trump is the first thing many of my European friends talk about

The ROC holds that Tibet has been part of China since 1792 at latest, which is the consensus of non-PRC historians everywhere. The Qing Dynasty fully integrated Tibet, though Tibet and China had been co-ruled as part of the same country with no meaningful distinction since the 14th century.

So you don't have anything to say about the content of her statement, you're just offended by her offering it when it's relevant?

How long do you think Tibet has been part of China

Anti-imperialism is when you sodomize a rival head of state to death with a bayonet

Literally only the Tibetan "government in exile" (formed in 2011) and the CIA hold this opinion

'National security' cannot be an excuse for evil.

Do you realize that this is simply how human interaction works? Of fucking course she felt safer telling her story when other people were already telling theirs.

The point is that All Lives Matter is also in 'poor taste'. About 250 Black people are shot by police every year, so there's been well over 5,000 Black people killed since 9/11—yet the same people who give that tired old 'all lives matter' line are also the ones who say 'never forget'.

this is secretly a meme about how mothers are slowly isolated from their friends by a society that expects them to be full-time caretakers and nothing but—to the point that they apparently need an excuse to spend an hour chatting about their life with their peers

ChatGPT is not a search engine, it's a language model. It does not provide correct answers, it imitates what correct answers sound like.

Nothing needs a meme, lmao

Yeah, bedtimes are authoritarian and my mom making me eat vegetables is totally fascist

'Scalloped' means baked in milk or some other cream sauce. I don't disagree with you, I'm just telling you. There's no scallops in scalloped potatoes.

I am surprised you've never had scallops, though. They're cheaper than crab. You can get a pound for like $10 at Kroger.

They're about 40 years late on the draw, there

Most jobs do nothing to actually help society. Our society is not designed towards the benefit of the many but towards the generation of capital. Those sometimes overlap, but usually they don't.

I can't decide if you're extremely lucky or extremely unlucky

I don't suppose anyone has a non-State Department source on what did happen at Katyn?
