Well another medieval thing we’re bringing back is not learning history

Yes, exactly.

Fucking guillotines already

You know that Onion article, “No Way to Prevent This says only nation where this regularly happens” that was getting posted like 3 times a year, for a decade, and now it seems like we’re at the point where even The Onion won’t bother posting it any more?

The comic was posted a CENTURY AGO. Good work america. Literally sticking to your guns.

i dare you not to get scared or cum

Fuck’s sake those serfs can be trained to hunt too, what a waste

Shooting a gun is well within the president’s power. If he can shoot a gun with no consequences, Congress doesn’t have the ability to ignore shit.

I know the joke here is that we’re just in an endless cycle, but if this happened now and we reverted to stone age sun god worshippers, we’d find it a LOT harder to redevelop modern technology. We’ve literally plundered the reachable raw materials in the ground, and scoured the biomes.

The biomes would eventually recover (and become something new), but all that nice reachable coal is gone. We may not make it if that happens.

He can do that by officially assassinating the conservative SC justices, nominating new ones, and then having armed marines inside the senate comittees to ensure they are confirmed immediately.

There’s probably a few more steps, but this would get us back on track. He would have to be willing to give up his powers at a certain point, which means installing the legal apparatus (in the form of government officials) with the will to strip those powers.

“How long are your guts?” might work if he was gay.

And there’s no solidarity like class solidarity. Remember Ellen Degeneres hanging out with Bush? Bruce Wayne would’ve been in that skybox too.

Heh, your reaction is totally valid, I had the same thoughts when I was looking at the comic. I added “so people don’t think it’s gay” just to be funny, I don’t know anything about the artist. I was mainly drawing attention to the fact that–as you just said–nobody has to do this. We get the joke without the tits.

I’m glad one of the eternal spectres of death was female-coded so we know it’s not a gay romance between two personifications of the grave.

The example they set was “throw bricks at cops”, and I agree, the world should listen.

Donald Trump has never served anything except himself and maybe a few tennis balls.

Why do I see so many of these accounts from reddthat?

There was a chance he might be in a room with black people. You think he was gonna risk showing up?

he listens to his better angels,

One subtle diversion from this: I think the joke here is not that Everett opposes homelessness (and is generous regardless); the joke here is that he wants to encourage this fellow, and is actively fighting those who would discourage him.

It’s just a little different perspective on why this is funny.

“It got me” as in “I was surprised and laughed really hard”
