Trump enjoyed threatening North Korea so much he’s decided to threaten Venezuela too! Also: Rex Tillerson gets owned, white people invent rap, and kitties act like kitties.
President Trump: "We have many options for Venezuela, including a possible military option if necessary" https://t.co/EIPUTM5T5D

I have full confidence that you could give Trump a map and he could not find Venezuela in less than seven tries. https://t.co/7jP628aaDU

I am locked and loaded. By which I mean I'm drunk and in my underwear and I've accidentally locked myself out of my apartment again.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that perhaps Gen. Kelly's ability to bring order to the White House was oversold.

What’s the alignment for people who keep bread in the freezer, because it keeps really well that way and I can warm myself a silce or two when I need them (I don’t eat bread all that often)?
[A tip for those who might not know it: if microwaving the frozen bread (which is the fastest way to warm it), wrap it first in a towel, or a double layer of paper towel, to avoid having it dry out.]
@kupo: Excellent description!
@JS
Frankly at this point I’d prefer it be aliens like the ADVENT Administration. Sure human slurries, police state and such but they got free healthcare aren’t dumb enough to nuke the entire world over pettiness.
Actual footage of white people inventing rap:
Don’t be silly. Rap was invented in 1999, by Marshall “Eminem” Mathers. Everyone knows that.
Next they’l be claiming that Miley Cyrus didn’t invent twerking.

Perhaps this is all some kind of attempt at extreme Overton Window shifting. Like, a few months from now, we’ll all be sitting in Dickensian workhouses, eating our soylent and saying “Phew, good thing we dodged that nuclear war!”
*whispers* I buy bread bags and twist ties by the hundred. . .am I an amoral bread god?
I thought the general consensus among conservatives and alt-righters was that rap was “degenerate”. So why would they want to take credit for it? I mean, are they going to take credit for sagging next?

Pssh. I have three words for you – two of them are ‘Ice’, and the third is ‘Baby’.
I make bread and keep cut loaves in a brown paper bag, folded at the top, inside a bread bin. It seems to work – we eat them pretty fast. Not sure what kind of evil that makes us.
Which recalls a saying of my mother-in-law’s “I’m not buying that wholemeal bread any more. People keep eating it.”
AAAAARRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHhhhhhhhhh!!!!!
@wwth
Love this proof!!! The essence of right-wing “science”!!!
ETA: /sarcasm… cuz that doesn’t always translate into text O_o
Grant, as a native of Sacramento: Go fuck a cactus, you heartless, disgusting, self-righteous shitwhizzle.

WRONG. The beastie boys invented rap with their hit song “Girls”. Since then it’s been perverted by all these black wannabes, who only “rap” about abusing their women. In contrast, ‘Girls’ rapped about how lovely women are when washing your dishes and cleaning your room. The song is truly a perfect example for young black urban youth on how to be civilized and professional in the real world, so why don’t more young black urban youth listen? It must be all the welfare making them lazy.
Anywhoooooo, I’m assuming that the clusterfuck of whitesplaining is because the google doodle yesterday celebrated the anniversary of Hip Hop- not rap, but Hip Hop CULTURE. I could believe that rap, defined as rhythmic spoken word, is older than race itself, but if you say that Blondie invented Hip Hop culture with a straight face………..
Also anywho; I just read an article on ROK about how Jesus has been cucked and I found it glorious.
On behalf of the Canadian Mammoth contingent (of which I am almost one because Minnesota) I am a little troubled that Snow hasn’t been mentioned yet. He also invented Reggae.
I twist and tuck my bread and use a bread box (the old fashioned kind, not the plastic single loaf kind.)
Am I…am I a monster?
@Peevee
No Peevee, you are the monsters
And then Peevee was a breadbox
And then Victorious Parasol was a breadbox, too.
@Paradox: Frankly, I found myself wondering if maybe the coastal states should consider some kind of dead-man’s-switch setup. Let the red states feel the pain too!
I used to like rap, back before it was all ‘bitch’ this and ‘ho’ that.
No, no, the Barenaked Ladies invented rap with their song, “One Week”.
Correction: white humans did not invent Rap, Pink Horses did.
Randomly…
I love that line about haunted sharks. ‘Ghost Shark’ is one of my all time fave crap movies – the bit where he gets the kid on the waterslide is some kind of genius! I just bought a movie from Poundland called ‘Raiders of the Lost Shark’ which I have high hopes/low expectations for. It can’t be worse than ‘Killer Mermaids’, which I watched recently…
Equally randomly…
I don’t eat bread, I don’t like it. Sandwiches do to lunchtime what Seth Lakeman did to folk music. But if we want the epitome of evil, then let me introduce the person who peels back the foil cap under the new milk carton top, then LEAVES IT ON, so when I go to the fridge, see the foil is still there, and shake the milk, I end up looking like I’ve ejaculated all over my shirt. Because this only ever seems to happen when I’m on the way to work.
@DanHolme
Two things: 1) Your milk has a tin foil cap? 2) Your milk isn’t homogenized?
We have plastic caps on our milk and 99% of it comes homogenized so you don’t need to shake it. There’s one local farm that does the glass bottles with non-homogenized milk, but it still uses plastic caps. And most Americans under 40 have never had milk you need to shake up, aside from non-dairy varieties.
