No it’s a joke and a trend from a video on tiktok. Why do people, especially here lately, jump to hate on anything ‘TikTok’ or ‘new’ from the younger generations? We all had our stupidity, shit, people STILL staple bread on trees

Also, for what it’s worth, my family was from the south. My reunions and funerals and weddings all take place somewhere in a holler with 1 Walmart about 40 minutes down the mountain.

My uncle once said, and my mother agreed, in relation to gay men “I wish they’d put em all on an island somewhere, they’d be happier that way”.

But I wasn’t lucky enough to know my grandpa as a man of wisdom. He’d said enough stupid shit, or abided it in his home when his children begged for '“Barack Houssein O’bummer’s” birth certificate. He had a dog named Blackie, that I called Blackie because I wouldn’t dare say it’s real name if someone asked.

What was good in them did all truly disappear in front of me day by day from that point. Hell, I actually believed the ‘states rights’ reason for the civil war until I was at least 14 or so. Crazy what stupid can breed

I think he’s saying that “southerners call northerners Yankees, but they don’t know that EVERYONE in the US is a Yankee once the confederacy lost, because not a single confederate soldier remained, reclaiming those states as Yankee territory and any citizen therein is a Yankee. Anyone who disagrees doesn’t remember the lesson Ol’ Sherman taught em”

This is hands down one of the most depressing articles I’ve read in recent memory.

Not that worse things haven’t happened recently, just that the people in this article are despicable in a way that leaves me feeling defeated. Christ, not a single woman who needed help in that article got help, and the people put in place to help them told them “don’t show off your shoulders, slut” and then intentionally filed it away in a manner that shows as “no sexual harassment complaints since 2001”. Fuckinf hell

I think we’re still missing the mark because it’s tax payer money.

Rip immunity from that fucker and let it come out of his pension (if he’s got one) or garnish his wages like everybody else.

For the most part, all anti virus software I’ve found that is pretty “mainstream” are bad or have backdoors built for bad people.

Macafee -absolute Spyware, delete it Kaspersky - Russian ties apparently - but I don’t believe reports from Just the US, and they’ve been pretty integral to the security space for businesses for years. I’m not sold on them being ‘bad’ yet. Norton - not malware, but not good and going the Macafee route

I hear good things about BitDefender, and Windows Defender is mostly good enough for the average person + an adblocker and you’re good to go.

I mean, we can summarize it in “republican representative pours water on the property of her Democrat colleague from the same district, lies about origin and reason”

Disagree. Top 20 Thanksgiving Family Clapbacks of 2023 is probably a really fun article to read

My wife and I use the pinky promise as a sacred oath and sometimes an investigative tool.

If we’re not okay, or we’re worried the other is putting on a face to get through a moment without being honest, the pinky is used as a “I won’t ask again, just promise me you’re alright, or will be alright, and we’re good” and that kicks off a conversation or she confirms that she’s fine and the tone is residual from another frustration.

Pinky is sacred, if my wife lied on a pinky promise, it would breach our deepest marital trust.

This would funnel people away from anti-abortion practitioners and locations. They don’t want that, they WANT you to come in and be talked down to by a ‘Family Planner’. They want people to come into the church run clinics.
