I think they meant the 1980s, as opposed to temperatures in the 80s in terms of degrees

That’s just, like, your opinion…

“I used to take a lot of bribes and I should have let everyone know. I mean, I still do, but I used to, too.”

Well sure, but let’s not throe the baby out with the baptism water, eh?

REACH OUT TO YOUR REPRESENTATIVES

Hello,

It has recently been widely reported that the FBI raided a corporate landlord in Arizona due to their use of RealPage to engage in price-fixing. I have reason to believe that RealPage has been used by landlords in [state] as well, so I am curious to know if [state] renters that may have been victimized by landlords using RealPage will also be able to depend on our elected officials to step in and enforce the consumer protection laws that we need in order to fight back against the wildly predatory price increases we have been experiencing from so many different directions. Please tell me this is an issue where the real people of [state], and not the corporations that speak far too loudly with their dollars, have our representatives behind our backs.

When and if wrongdoing is found, can we also expect to be fairly and fully compensated for the greedflation that landlords stole? And if those costs are too high for a particular landlord to bear, perhaps ownership of the effected properties should instead be transferred to the government to establish more low-income housing facilities and in doing so, help address crises in housing, homeless, and skyrocketing costs. What if we start treating corporations with the same uncaring hand they treat consumers, instead of handling them with kid-gloves? Can [state] citizens count on your support in keeping our people, not our corporations, as your top priority?

Respectfully, [name]

Instead of forking so much of our tax dollars directly over to corporations, how about we try dispensing those awards directly to the American people so we can spend it where we think will be best?

Let’s just end the thing where the government transfers money to corporations. They like healthy competition, right? So if your corpo doesn’t get their fun-money because I spend my kickback funds elsewhere, that’s just business, right?

The money will all trickle up! It’ll be great for the corpos and rich folks.

Fuck cancer all the way. Every step further in stopping it is a win. And this seems like it might be a particularly great step.

Fuck Marduk. All my homes hate Marduk. Apsu was right about those rowdy kids all along!

Leave it, it is very well-written and it also made my day to read

But why were the police even called?

Before the police were called, Martin and his co-workers made two trips to the SUV that Floyd was sitting in outside Cup Foods, trying to get him to come back to the store, Martin said. He recalled telling Floyd and his friends that the bill Floyd had just used was fake, and that his boss wanted to talk to him.

All I’m saying is, the consequences aren’t as simple as “some homeless lowlife goes to jail lol” like the guy in the article seems to feel in his heart. Sometimes a counterfeit bill results in a 9- minute long public execution followed months of societal pain.

ETA: Johnny McEntee! That’s the asshole’s name. Johnny McEntee is the asshole that is trying to get homeless people into situations involving police over counterfeit money. Police that sometimes decide murder is a best path to justice for poor people with counterfeit money legal issus. Fuck that guy.

Didn’t George Floyd get murdered because he paid with a counterfeit? And assholes like this are proud of it.

I appreciate the posts, downvotes be damned. It works for the layout I’m viewing it on just fine

And not a representative from the human race to be found around Mother Nature showing any concerning whatsoever. Well done, Mister Larson.

Let it be known in the Book of Ages that boydster stands with you in solidarity. Donald Trump is, in fact, a piece of shit.

I too remember it through the nostalgic lense of Pizza-Hut-cup-tinted glasses. And with the Book-It program, there was even more reason to keep asking my parents to take a trip there!

I’d pick J.R.R. Tolkien and Middle-earth, no hesitation

Former Marion Police Department Chief Gideon Cody should be held accountable for the death of Joan Meyer.

I was just gifted a dictionary of etymology. The Barnhart one. I might be leading you down a dark path here, but you may want to consider adding it to your word-lookup routine if you’re having fun with what you’re doing already.

Bro it’s fucking GIF tho
