    The people on the left are atheist philosophers and the ones on the right are shitheads who coincidentally happen to be atheists. Special mention to the bottom left in the right box, Ann Rand, whose “philosophy” is that the rich and powerful are morally superior to everyone else because they’re rich and powerful and might makes right and all those dirty poor people should die from huffing train exhaust. (not exaggeration. This is what she actually believes)

    The meme is a statement that just because you’re right on one thing doesn’t make you right on everything.






  • Even if you aren’t carrying any diseases, the fact remains that you are carrying germs that are completely foreign to their ecosystem, and as such they possess no resistance to. Something harmless to you can be deadly to an immune system that never had to deal with it.

    Come to think of it, I’ve never seen a time travel story that addressed this. I guess most writers either don’t know or feel the story would be too tedious with that detail included.




  • The specifics depend on the writer, but there’s some supernatural force keeping Gotham from improving. The city may have been founded by demon worshipers, Arkham Alylum might have been founded by a serial killer, and there might be chemicals from underground Lazarus Pits leaking into the water supply. It all depends on the continuity and who tells the story. Long story short, Gotham is the kind of fucked up that all the money in the world isn’t going to fix.


  • I even went to r/conservative on Reddit and 9/10 people were saying this is unacceptable.

    Dear God, those comments.

    Hopefully this just a bluff and he doesn’t actually do it.

    I just… it reads as so casual about the situation. Not “Holy shit, this is bad!” Just “I hope he’s kidding”. Even when they turn on him they can only manage the weakest possible criticism.

    Bonus comment about MTG demanding impeachment in another thread:

    She fell off the crazy cliff. Never understood how she went wacko so fast.

    NOW??!! SHE’S ONLY GONE CRAZY NOW??!!

    I can’t fucking believe this. She was sane when she was talking about Jewish space lasers and dems controlling the weather, but impeaching the president for engaging in genocide is too far apparently!

    Excuse me, I need to scream.
