I’ve had fake-helicopter parents (who were lawyers of the ambulance chasing variety,) insist that we (I,) was discriminating against his son because he was black.

The kid kept calling in asking questions like “I don’t understand this form” and “what do I put in this box” for the cover letter sheet.

Sometimes there’s some confusion where English isn’t their first language, so I’m happy to help. But not knowing what goes into the name box… or date of birth…

Yeah. No. His dad decided to start a lawsuit. I remember our lawyers playing back the judge’s decision for me. They opened up with a motion to dismiss citing one of the phone calls, and that being able to read and write/type English is a requirement.

Judges reply?

“Yeah, so whats your hourly rate?” (He made the plaintif- or rather his dad- pay for it.)

At least the kids would learn that steroids and TBIs are bad.

She’s worse than Hogan

What’s your point?

They discovered the leak in 23- about one week before he was arrested.

If you want to go back to when the leak occurred… that started fairly early in trumps presidency.

From the moment the leak was discovered, it took them all of a week to plug it and remove the culprit’s freedom. (Or did you think jack was free to kill around while they waited for an open court date?)

Pens, random screwdrivers and Allen hexes from furniture, rubber bands, a giant box of paper clips that I have no idea where they came from, a stack of note cards, a couple pads of post it knockoffs, markers, pens that don’t work. Mechanical pencils. Markers that don’t work. Broken wooden pencils. A box of crayons.

9 usb cables, 6 of which are the OG USB mini, another is the printer cable. 3 other random power cords.

2 box cutters, 3 pairs of scissors. 3 lighters, 1 of which reliable for now.

And a random ball of string that’s keeping it all “connected”

Marric Garland didn’t even start the poccess until over 2.5 years after it happened.

for a better comparison, go with Jack Teixera- the Discord Leaks Guy. After they were discovered, it took all of a week to figure out his identity, arrest him, and secure further leaks.

It took over 6 months to get the documents back- when they knew exactly who had the documents. No investigation necessary. but he didn’t want to be “political.”

And by the way, those documents are literally damning evidence of violating several laws for which most Americans would be hanged.

Also, remember, they didn’t actually get them all back. Some of the worst secrets are still missing.

oh she’s getting some pork, alright.

honestly, that would be awesome. completely private stalls. a common area to wash hands or whatever.

that’s… oddly specific…

the UN is performing as intended. that is, to maintain power for the old super powers and prevent anyone else from complaining too much.

an oxymoron.

basically what happens when you let two morons suck out all the oxygen.

I don’t imagine they’re cool enough to wear tight tights.

Secondly, I’d say that as plans to get the US to not escalate with Russia go, a preemptive nuclear strike against the UK and France probably is going to be pretty counterproductive.

I love how dry and understated this comment is. Also, I’m pretty sure if russia decides an overt attack on the US, Biden can simply not hand over powers to avoid confusion. I don’t think Biden would do that because if he had enough of a spine to do that, Trump would have already been in jail. Details.

Yeah. Used to be deep into fundie-land myself.

Hindsight… all those depictions of heaven sounds like torture. Like, there would be nothing better to do except go to worship services and listen to hillsong 24/7.

First, the book of revelation was written for a specific audience- that particular audience were contemporary/living Christian’s when it was written and would have been understood to be referring to Nero- who at the time was persecuting Christian’s and blaming them on all the shit that was happening in Rome.

Secondly, the timeline is somewhat unclear even if you take it as prophetic and literal. Depending on who you talk to the resurrection comes before, during, or after the tribulations. (Pre trib, Mid trib, and post trib)

My personal favorite is the Any-Trib camp (that says it’s all of the options). Mostly because it’s their excuse to clear up that uncertainty in ordering, they just suggest it’s not a singular event.

(And are most certainly ignoring that it’s always a singular event.)

These are the kind of nonsensical arguments that pop up because you refuse to accept that the scriptures aren’t entirely literal or meant to be and instead absolutely must both be cohesive (aka consistent,) and correct…. And are literal prophecy.

Remember that to the original audience, this isn’t prophecy, but political-discourse-as-allegory…. Because open criticism would get you killed.

Answering all those random user ids like “Georgia” or “Florida” that are scams, just hoping it’s trump.

I dunno. But I’ll assume it’s, mostly because it’s funny as fuck.

I’m not sure which is scarier…

A US agency that doesn’t tell their boss everything;

or POTUS that justifies not telling the civilian leadership everything becaus that POTUS would sell out the agents and assets that allow it to operate.

This, folks, is how the Deep State gets formed.

“Could”…

Try… “Will”

So, Peter at the gates comes from a more or less literal interpretation from the passage where Jesus was making Peter the first pope. “To you I hand the keys to the kingdom of heaven….”

What Jesus was saying is that Peter got to decide who was in the Blood Ritual Cannibal Club,

Keep in mind, the books were written well after Jesus died, and the scriptures weren’t canonized until 300 years later; at the council of Nicaea- which was called specifically to “unify” the church. A lot of the choices about what was canon or not was specifically made to protect the bulk of the bishop’s authority (by drawing a straight lineage of succession from Peter.)

he could still win. here’s how:
