I understand why he didn't, obviously, but the whole time I watched that happen all I could think was, "PUNCH HIM IN THE FACE"

This is your regularly scheduled reminder that the RNC got hacked in 2016 alongside the DNC, but the material was never released. That event coincides with the pivot Republicans made toward being pro-russia.

Ah yes, the famous prison yards where I can go participate in the slave auctions and literally purchase people as property. I get your point, but they're really not the same.

The state of the prison system is awful but this comparison really feels like it minimizes the horrors of chattel slavery.

And also to get people accustomed to the idea of participating in mass actions. You don't go from barely having protests to a multi week general strike in one go. You do things like this, first.

I knew I'd get this comment. And you're not wrong, that is the case. But I'm referring to it being fully legal and accepted. Like open-air slave market level.

That path is dangerous, too. It's currently what's allowing states to deny abortions and I bet it would eventually be used to re-legalize slavery.

If it was your parent, definitely. They don't ask about grandparents. I don't know there's a place on the SF-86 for you to insert this info.

Hours after this story published, a White House spokesperson said in a statement that DOGE did not share classified information ― even as NRO’s classified information was still accessible on DOGE’s website.

“DOGE did not share classified information, any assertion to the contrary is a lie,” said the spokesperson. “Yesterday the accusation was DOGE was not transparent and today the accusation is DOGE is too transparent. Stop the fearmongering, DOGE’s mission remains to cut waste, fraud, and abuse and are doing so with the proper security clearances and following the law.”

Lmao peak professionalism guys.

Most vision problems are issues with the shape of the lens of your eye either causing distortion of the light (astigmatism), or changing the optical focal length of something at a particular distance to something not ideal, causing you to be near/far sighted, or both.

These contact lenses just insert a new series of optical lenses which cause magnification.

The other processes would be incredibly difficult as our understanding of how images are processed by the occipital lobe of the brain are limited at best. You might have some success with the cyberpunk method of a bionic which your brain can be taught to control, or genetic modification to change the density and type of receptors on your retina, or the shape of the eye.

4chan memed about penis inspection day for years, but I never expected they'd get this far.

I have an appointment with a urologist in March and plan on scheduling a vasectomy at the earliest available time. I'm bringing my wife with me so that we can skip any potential "is your spouse okay with this" step.
