This is a really poignant illustration of the seductive nature of glorifying war but that is a LOOK and she is SERVING it

I've seen Death depicted as a card dealer or other sort of gambler, a guy in a suit, a farmer, a robed apparition, and any other number of things, but this? This has to be the best Death I've seen yet. An old seductress saying "hey kid, don't you wanna die in a trench for a government that doesn't give a fuck about you, just like your dear old dad?" This goes hard as fuck.

"I used to know your daddy." kicks like a mule.

Re-reading this, I'm not sure how clear I made it. The American Nazis wanted America to stay out of the war, because that's what served their interests. And there were a lot, and I mean an embarrassing volume, of American Nazi sympathizers—more than can simply be counted from rolls of dues-paying members and mailing lists. Their rally in Madison Square Garden drew a crowd of 20,000. They wanted to let Hitler do his thing, and were perfectly aware of what that meant... not sure how well and how broadly it was known in 1936, but American political cognoscenti were aware of Hitler's aims even before he was appointed chancellor in 1933. By 1938 it was all public knowledge—despite some claims you still find that we didn't know anything until late 1942. Kristallnacht was widely covered in the press, with plenty of stories of inhumanity and misery leading up to that. If it hadn't been for the German-Japanese alliance, and Pearl Harbor, we might have let Putin, I mean Hitler, establish total European dominion.

no amount of budgeting will make up for the fact that we simply do not make enough money

no amount of therapy will make up for the fact that we simply do not make enough money

no amount of working will make up for the fact that we simply do not make enough money

this is my suggestion

I like this, I suggest this

honestly "oracle that nobody believes" is such a solid trope. imagine trying to convince anybody in 2006 what the next two decades was gonna look like

Cats understand "naughty". In fact I think they're the only animal who understands it. Dogs know "good" and "bad" but not Naughty. Same with theft. Cats know what theft is. They know when they are thieving and you can see it on their faces. Squirrels are thieves but they don't know that. They know "take" and "have" but they don't comprehend what it is to steal. Nor do raccoons or coyotes or any species of rodent. They may participate in theft but they are ignorant of the weight of what they do, the full meaning of it. Cats know what crime is and they do it on purpose.

My roommate's cat only knocks things off of tables if someone is there to see it. When she's alone in the room, she could care less about what's on the table. Once there's a human in there with her, bam, that thing is on the floor.
