These two pictures were taken half a decade apart at the same bingo tent. Half a decade, a couple hundred arguments, several thousand miles of travel, a million or so kisses, and one lady who has me wrapped around her little finger: I would never change a fucking thing.

🚨 Fox News just aired one of the most dangerous things ever said on live TV.

Brian Kilmeade, while discussing crime and homelessness, floated the idea of “involuntary lethal injection” for mentally ill homeless people.

His exact words:

“Just kill them.”

it was so cool how Big Pun and Fat Joe’s thing was being 10 times the size of anyone else in rap at the time. I doubt we’ll ever see anyone try that gimmick again because we just don’t have fun stuff like that anymore

Watching a Diners Drive Ins and Dives from 2008 and it’s a completely different world. A bacon cheeseburger was braggadociosly only $4.75. I looked up the website and that burger is $17 today.

The Flavortown you were raised to live in no longer exists.

@Pheauzy @kindlyone92 I have no opinion here one way or the other, but calling people retards while posting on Twitter an average of nearly 25 times a day - every single day of your life since joining - is WILD work.

Worse things for your brain out there than Zoloft, my guy.

@whitefeelimgs You've posted on Twitter an average of 7+ times a day, every day, for the 5 years your account's been active. Those are bucket-shitter numbers.

Faceless, chronically online pedants like you contribute nothing to society, beyond making decent people feel helpless to do any good.

What kind of demons are we dealing with??

[giggly ♡ @xgigglypuff]

In Appalachia, our cultural foods have evolved in the way that they have because our ancestors were poor and starving. Poor, white southerners ate foods that were cheap and calorically-dense. This is why we now eat biscuits and gravy, grits, and local vegetables cooked in leftover animal fats.

They were lucky to have had things like flour and grease to make gravy. My grandparents regularly only had this to eat, and even then, the food was scarce.

Cuisine that has evolved from poverty is not exclusive to another race or another country. Americans, Europeans, white people in general — have all struggled with poverty, and many of our cultures adapted and survived eating scraps, like these people are doing now. You are not genetically superior because you are blessed with abundant resources. You are lucky to have been born into the abundant wealth that America has today. Using these peoples’ suffering as evidence that Haitian immigrants are an inferior people is mind-blowingly cruel and ignorant.

If you want to look down on Haitian immigrants because people in their homeland are starving, then I guess you should deport all of us in Appalachia and plenty of southerners whose ancestors worked hard but still spent years doing things like this to SURVIVE.

You are the entitled elite that republicans claim to hate so much.

[bradley lester @DadleyLester]

I've been choosing the "I don't like this ad" feedback on every hyper-aggressive GOP post that comes through my feed and it has led to this madness popping up in my feed.

They will truly take anyone's money to promote right wing bullshit on this god-forsaken app.

[Noah Garfinkel @NoahGarfinkel]

A key point missing in a lot of post debate analysis is that Trump’s claim about immigrants eating pets almost perfectly syncs up to the piano in the Peanuts theme song.

Kamala is full of shit, but if there is one thing any (real) Appalachian with a career can relate to, it's code switching.

Put me in a budget meeting, I sound like Walter Cronkite.

The moment I break a sweat from the physical side of my job, it's like an episode of Moonshiners.

[Chubb, The Legend @takethemback_]

I’m crying at white people being upset because they’re just now realizing that we have to code switch in order to basically survive in certain situations. She’s aight, we get it
