Just have a $1 coin that can snap into 10 pieces like a chocolate bar. And a $100 note that tears into 10 pieces like a book if stamps.

History would suggest otherwise...

... and everyone sang, "no way, get fucked, fuck off Gina."

Really struggling with the Thomas Mathew Crooks conundrum these days.

Kinda insulting... Kinda. Weak. He can't say it is insulting victims of the holocaust, because then he'd be speaking on behalf of them, which is a no-no. So he implies that it sorta, coulda, maybe, in a roundabout way be insulting them, because he doesn't want want to validate that it was very clearly an insult aimed directly at him. No wonder he simped for Trump. "He didn't order anyone illegally deported to a concentration camp while I was there, so he is actually an alright guy. Hawk tuah!"

In a TS tweet. The POTUS went online and tweeted a message to another head of state. he even used some all caps, as if Putin is actually going to take it seriously. America is so fucked. What's he going to do next? Throw down a Tiktok challenge?

I'm sure her daddy didn't intervene at all...

Such patriots!

Australians see very little benefit from this because the LNG is extracted by foreign companies which don't pay any taxes. Just another political rort.

Such a free democratic non-apartheid state...

I have, you are missing the point. You seem to be suggesting that what is happening in Gaza is dispicable but can't be labelled as a "holocaust" nor, arguably, a "genocide". So this is a semantic argument based on your personal perception of the word holocaust and genocide. Do you have a more appropriate word for what is happening in Gaza? Unfortunately "Gazans are being treated despicably" probably doesn't capture the whole 50000+ people dead and more dying due to military strikes, starvation and lack of clean water and medical care. See the funny thing with English is that when we don't have a word for something we borrow one, or use one that describes a similar situation... But, yeah the important thing is that no body should compare this documented genocide with any other genocide especially not the worst one ever documented in detail.

 

"Grubhub to pay $25M for 'deceptive' practices against customers, drivers" I've been seeing this quite a bit in news headlines. Does the comma replace an "&"? Is it just a weird clickbaity incomplete sentence thing?
