What happened 11,000 years ago? I mean, we’ve got some pottery fragments. Other than that, ???

Depends on your definition of “long-term”. The biggest accomplishments of Man have been acknowledged for maybe 10,000 years at the very extreme limits. 10,000 years is not even a drop in the bucket of geological or celestial time. So it very much depends on your perspective.

MLA format would be something like this:

Maneuver, The Picard. The Delusion. Picard, 2023.

Then, in your paper, to reference it, just write “(Maneuver 2023)”.

… Or you could just read a history book that wasn’t written by a Mao fanboi.

WTF is up with all the NSFW tags, and the massive ChatGPT-like spam?

Hey - maybe they shouldn’t have been fucking traitors if they didn’t want to be hated. It’s a pretty simple solution, you know.

Hey - you’ll get no argument from me that the Democratic party sucks, or that it’s owned by the same lobbyists that own Republicans. That being said, the differences you outlined when saying that there’s very little difference are big fucking differences.

I love that there’s no skip button lol

Little difference, except their inept economic policies, and their absolutely shit social policies and refusal to accept climate change…

I don’t know, man. Sounds like some pretty fucking big differences to me.

Yeah. I was thoroughly disillusioned by what the DNC did to Bernie. Really pissed me off. Still voted for Hillary, though, because her opponent is a literal monster. I hate having to make that kind of choice every 4 years: “vote for the shitty candidate who will do very little, or vote for an actual piece of shit who will do everything in their power to strip all of the progress we’ve made in the 20th century”. It’s awful.

I can’t say one single fucking word about how the trials related to trump are a complete out of control purely political witchhunt

I mean, you can say that all you’d like. Just don’t be surprised when people judge you to be not very intelligent because of it. It is a profoundly dumb take, after all.

It’s funny to consider “love of country” to mean “the food, certain people, and beautiful landmarks”, while simultaneously condemning the actions of its government, and like half of the citizens who live there.

Not that I’m criticizing, mind. I struggled with this myself for a long time before finally coming to the realization that this country is like a problematic family. You’re told that you should love it even if you don’t like lots of aspects of it very much. Like an abusive parent.

I’m in my 40s now, and I’ve finally realized that that’s bullshit. I don’t love this country. I used to, but I’ve realized that I only ever loved the idea of this country while the reality has been a profound disappointment.

The barbecue is good, though. So that’s nice.

Except there were rumors for a long time that Michael Jackson sexually abused Macaulay Culkin at the Neverland Ranch. Granted, Macaulay has repeatedly denied those rumors, but still. If it were anybody else in the pose of Michael Jackson, the joke wouldn’t work as well.

You know, it’s often hard to tell with guys like you whether you’re trolling, or actually genuinely stupid. Of course I took the boosters. I’m not a moron.

So, out of curiosity, do you ever look at the reactions of normal people to your idiocy and think: “Gee… maybe I’m wrong about this thing that I’m completely fucking devoted to?”

Hey - I believe that extraordinary talent should be recognized. And you, my friend, have an extraordinary talent for stupidity.

I don’t know, bigots?

Damn. Dude creates an account, and doesn’t post or comment with it for 2 months. Then, he breaks that streak by posting possibly one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen. What a fuckin’ legend.

Terrifying.

Well I, for one, am shocked, SHOCKED that a song about lynching would be so popular with you lot.

Every time I deleted my comments, some of them came back. It was always different comments that came back. My best guess is that they have a distributed database, and it has federation problems, so records deleted on one instance still appear on another.
