This sounds like it would be something that's an interesting anecdote and a "GOTCHA". Has there ever been any confirmation of this from Grindr? As amusing of a story it is, it's only really useful information if it's provable.

Then I learned that Pink Slime didn’t go away, they just changed the laws so they could add up to a certain percentage of pink slime to ground beef without identifying it. I believe it’s up to 15% where i live. Suddenly the quality difference between the store ground beef and the next price tier makes a lot of sense. Also the ammonia smell as it’s part of the processing. Fucking vile what american governments allow capitalists to get away with at our expense.

This is like when the cacao content of Hershey's chocolate dipped so low that they were going to be legally forced to call it "chocolate flavored bar". Did they alter the recipe? No, they just had the laws changed so they're still considered chocolate.

It's like how people were really against Obamacare but loved the Affordable Care Act. All you need is a bit of a label change and the public falls in line. The public has an attention span of about 2 weeks and rarely ever follows up, so they are really easy to fool.

This is one of the reasons the new administration loves to cut education budgets. Stupider people are easier to govern.

Don't forget the shrinkflation. Many, many, many products are now smaller or lesser in quantity than they used to be.

Is this lady using her phone while driving, after speeding by 20MPH and thinking it's a flex? If she uses it at 20MPH I'd bet she uses it at 70 MPH too! Couldn't this have waited until she was safely off the road?

Is this why Republican senators keep getting caught kissin' with other men in public restrooms?

I also remember that the USSR was mocked because their citizens had to show papers to move around inside the country. With all the warrantless searches allowed within 50 miles of the border (aka a huge part of the USA) and the huge amount of scrutiny that you face to even fly within the USA, it doesn't seem quite so funny anymore.

Oi, you got a loicense for that pro-Palestinian sentiment?

Reminds me of how many people were really against Obamacare, but loved the Affordable Care Act.

I've known this for a long time but I continue to do my best to operate honorably. I may never be rich or powerful, but I sleep very well at night.

Elon has alienated so many people it's not clear he would be able to form a consortium of voters big enough to matter.

To break the two-party system we have in the USA, you'd need to have overwhelming numbers, because both the Democrats and GOP have a vested interest in maintaining the status quo regarding the balance of power.

It's not that easy to get so many traitors to the Union all in one photo. I hope they all have a really crummy time.

 

Guess those fools at NASA didn't think about this!!! Wake up people!

I guess we probably shouldn't watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwNc5aK3dBk
