Hopefully this isn't controversial, but if I'm paying for a streaming service, there should be no ads. Period. Not on Disney+, Amazon, or Hulu. Ads belong on free tiers. If advertisers are already paying, why am I paying to watch them too?

She tied her two young children together in the basement. Then she threw her body on top of them.

A tornado was heading straight for their home.

When it hit, the house collapsed.

Two steel beams crushed Stephanie Decker’s legs. Seven ribs broke. Her legs were almost completely severed.

But underneath her were her two children.

Alive.

Then they realised something horrifying:

Another tornado was coming.

Stephanie couldn’t stand. Couldn’t run. Couldn’t free herself.

So she pulled the blanket over her children, wrapped her arms around them and covered them with her broken body.

Again.

The second tornado passed.

Neither child had even a scratch.

Stephanie survived, but lost both legs.

People called her a hero.

She simply said:

“I call myself a mom.”

SORRY IF THIS OFFENDS FAST FOOD WORKERS, BUT I’M DONE…

I just ordered my own meal on a touchscreen terminal, selected my own drink, and walked to the counter to fetch my own tray.

Then the kiosk screen flipped around and asked for a 20% tip for "kitchen staff."

ABSOLUTELY NOT.

You cut 3 front-desk jobs to save on payroll, forced me to do the order entry myself, and now you want ME to supplement your workers' hourly wages because you refuse to pay them a living wage?

If I’m typing in my own order and carrying my own food, you should be tipping ME for doing the cashier's job.

THAT’S NOT A TIPPING CULTURE, THAT’S CORPORATE WAGE SUBSIDY.

Muslim parents "demanded" a ban on pork at a school in a city in the Netherlands.
The mayor of that place responded with wise words!
"Muslims must understand that they must adapt to the Netherlands, their customs, their traditions, their way of life, because it was the country they chose to emigrate to.
They must understand that they are the ones who must integrate and learn to live in the Netherlands.
They must understand that they are the ones who must change their lifestyle, not the Dutch.
You must understand that the Dutch are not racist or xenophobic.
We accept many immigrants, from many countries with different cultures and religions, which are Islamic countries that do not accept non Islamic immigrants.
Therefore, the Dutch are not willing to give up their identity and their culture.
In conclusion, they must understand that in the Netherlands, with their Jewish Christian roots, Christmas trees, churches, and religious parties, the religion must remain in the Netherlands.
For Muslims who disagree with the Dutch culture and religion and do not feel comfortable in the Netherlands, there are 57 beautiful Muslim countries around the world, most of them populated and ready to receive them with open arms, according to the sharia.
If you leave your country to come to the Netherlands, and not to a Muslim country, it is because you have seen a better life in the Netherlands than where you come from.
THIS IS THE WAY TO TREAT PEOPLE COMING IN THAT ARE THEIR TO DESTROY OUR COUNTRIES! IF YOU DONT LIKE IT? GO HOME!

"Your homeschooled kids need socialization."

"They have 5 siblings and 17 cousins they hang out with a lot."

"Not like that."

"We go to church twice a week and they talk with all sorts of people."

"Not like that."

"They do intramural sports and play with all sorts of other kids."

"Not like that."

"There are lots of kids in the neighborhood and at the local park they interact with."

"Not like that."

"Our homeschool co-op meets once per week, with parents rotating as teachers."

"Not like that."

"Ok. So...what do you mean by socialization then?"

"You need to send them away every single day to sit with children their own age for 6 hours. And let me teach them with no supervision from you."

"Oh. No thanks."

We have become a deeply unserious culture lolololol a woman with her tits cut off on a Men’s Style Issue. Just look at it. It’s disgusting. It’s fucking grotesque. And yet an entire ecosystem of very serious people has to pretend this is brave or interesting or profound instead of the completely predictable endpoint of a culture that has spent years trying to intellectualize its way out of the most basic observable shit imaginable. And ofc the replies are restricted. The entire thing falls apart the second normal people are allowed to say lmao what the fuck is this

[Josh Howerton @howertonjosh]

Watch the bait-and-switch:

A) When the Bible is used to advance a “conservative” cause, it’s “evil Christian Nationalism” (that he’s spent his entire campaign decrying) or it’s “forcing your religion on other people” and must be FORECEFULLY DENOUNCED.

But when the Bible is used to advance a progressive cause, aw shucks it’s just me being Christlike, “speaking truth to power”, and seeking “justice” or “compassion.”

His whole campaign is, ”Christian Nationalism for ME, but not for THEE” and hoping you won’t notice.

B) What progressives do is take the commands Jesus gave to INDIVIDUALS and apply them to the GOVERNMENT.

When Christians use words like “caring” or “generous” they mean caring for people and being generous with their own resources.

When progressives use the words “caring” and “generous”, they mean “vote for the government to forcibly take OTHER PEOPLE’S RESOURCES at gunpoint and redistribute it against their will.”

Of course, this *always* backfires because governments do not work like people and churches, so with governments you tends to get more of what you INCENTIVIZE and less of what you PENALIZE.

This is why cities and states that throw billions of $ at “solving homelessness” end up with MORE HOMELESSNESS, they do not “solve homelessness.”

This is a theology-nerd thing, but in general progressives want the government to do the roles of the church and individual (charity, compassion, care), and they want NOBODY to do the role of the State (administer justice and be a “terror to the wrongdoer”).

^^^this always results in societal chaos and darkness.

Further…

What Talarico (and other progressives) always do is selevtively edit Jesus, so that he becomes a mascot for their cause.

I can do a “when Jesus…” list too, but James won’t like mine…

- When Jesus defined marriage, he defined it as only between a man and a woman

- When Jesus talked about gender, he rooted it in biology, saying “he made them male and female”

- When Jesus talked about harming children (abortion), he said it would be better for you to have millstone tied around your neck and be cast into the ocean

- … that time when Jesus encouraged his followers to buy weapons for self-defense (Luke 22:36)

- Jesus’ family strictly obeyed the government’s border / migration / census laws.

- When Jesus talked about salvation, he said belief in him was the ONLY WAY

- When Jesus healed the sick, he didn’t need a deductible… there were no insurance companies in AD 30, and Jesus was using miraculous power, not paying doctors. This would be like an anti-vaxxer saying “JESUS WASNT VACCINATED!” as justification for their position)

- When Jesus fed the hungry, he FED THE HUNGRY. He did not vote for the government to forcibly take other people’s stuff at gunpoint and redistribute it against their will.

I could go on and on and on and on…

The point is, Jesus is a LORD of the universe, not a MASCOT for your cause.

Can we please have this woman run for anything so that we can elect her and ultimately make her POTUS?

[A Very Nerdy Gal @TheLadyGamer12]

Or you could bring back the dollar menu and play place for the kids.

Just a suggestion.

[Right_in_the_middle @right_inthe_mid]

Growing up, my dad rarely napped.

But if he ended up snoozing on the sofa…old man with his head back, mouth open… my mom became an absolute tyrant about silence.

She made sure we understood “he works very hard for us. If he’s sleeping, he needs it.”

I always thought that was so touching and sweet. Men work hard, they deserve rest.

I don’t actually understand how you become this spiteful and gross about someone you love. The modern woman’s understanding of love seems to be only self-focused, self-serving. That is tragic and ugly. Love is a giving thing, it asks for nothing in return. We’ve instead taught women to demand and take.

…

Also, her lip filler is atrocious. Unless that’s just her lips? Whatever it is…

[Bad Hombre @Badhombre]

Cool story. Anyway, here’s Obama and Biden rolling out the red carpet for Xi.

Also, let’s not forget the only time Gavin Newsom bothered to clean up San Francisco was when Xi visited.

[Zach Bollinger @zachbollinger18]

I’m glad the NFL is cracking down on this.

Kids watch these games. No need for stuff like this in the NFL presented by DraftKings.

Let the kids find out about beer the way they should… through the hundreds of NFL sponsored Bud Light commercials per game.

[Big Timi @OrevaZSN]

“Disney+ will now have ads on every plan.”

You know what? Where the hell is my DVD player? I’m ready to go back to buying movies, owning them forever, and watching them in peace.

[Queen Bee @KingBobIIV]

This is a lie.

Mothers nipples absorb the babies saliva, analyse it, and then change the next breast milk for that babies needs - this could be more water, could be less, could be more iron, magnesium, calcium, various vitamins, antibodies to fight viruses etc. This is why a mother craves weird food, her body is trying to constantly create the perfect milk for her child, 24/7.

This can NOT be achieved by a fake, simulated man taking drugs and forcing children to suck his nipples.

This information is readily available from tens of thousands of studies, if @BBC ever wanted to do any actual journalism.

Cancels multiple TV shows, openly admits they are scaling back on new content, just to immediately raise the price lmao

not everything needs a subscription, someones gotta hold it down for free

[Uzi @UziCryptoo]

CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN THIS TO ME LIKE I’M IN KINDERGARTEN

Why did we replace every bulb with LED, bought Energy Star appliances, built massive solar and wind farms, kept the lights off, lowered the thermostat, and yet the electric bill keeps climbing?

We did everything they told us to do, and somehow the only thing getting more efficient is how fast they take our money.
