Jesus christ, Hasbro didn't "decide to keep him at the last minute". They were never getting rid of Mr. Potato Head. They were changing the name of the toy line and logo, so Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head were part of the Potato Head line.

It's like people complaining about the muppets being cancelled, when they were finally put on a streaming service. All because you had to sit through a little disclaimer that some material did not age well. That's the exact opposite of being cancelled! They were brought back!

Even a dumb barn animal can recognise the value of masks for Covid managment and relief for the population. AGC. The traditional sex and gender view had come completely apart and it's time pick up the pieces and build something entirely new. AGC.

Anything that tries to imply that I should feel shame and remorse for my poor actions? That’s cancel culture. If I’m not allowed to be a complete poo poo head to everyone around me with no consequences whatsoever, that’s an infringement of my rights and even my humanity.

It's cute that establishment Republicans think this is a winning message of any kind, or that even their Trumpified base cares anymore. It's the one thing I enjoy about the Trumpists gaining influence in the GOP, they give zero shits about Reaganomic crap (unfortunately we all know what they love instead).

I'm 90% certain that by 2027, life in space will still be a claustrophobic, uncomfortable and somewhat terrifying experience ill suited for those who haven't been trained relentlessly to cope with it. But gently caress it, apparently Elon is going to make a frozen, airless desert with almost no sunlight livable by the next decade too.

If Musk somehow gets himself and some other rich guys to explode or freeze in space it wouldn't be the worst thing ever. Just saying.

I genuinely don't understand how people are taking this obvious tech grift project seriously. Like the company that would produce most of the components is basically shutdown because of Covid.

What a loving idiot. Branco's unbridled ineptitude and stupidity make me feel like I'm going to cringe inside out through my own rear end in a top hat. I'm sure Rall is worse, but who has the attention to spare for Rall's stupid bullshit? That's why God made scroll wheels.

 A brief summary of the historical rape allegation against the Attorney General, to give context to the cartoons: - Yesterday Christian Porter, the Attorney General, revealed himself as the cabinet minister against which a historical rape allegation, allowing media to officially name him (unofficially everyone already knew, his name was trending on social media for days). - Porter categorically denies the allegation, and while he will be on a few weeks medical leave also stressed he would not be standing down as attorney general. He also criticised being put on "trial by media". - The woman who made the allegation took her own life last year, her friends sent a detailed letter of her statement to Scott Morrison and two senators. - Because it is a historical rape allegation and the woman is deceased there will be no criminal justice, the NSW police have already closed the case because of "insufficient admissible evidence". Her friends are seeking political justice, as the question is whether Porter meets the standard for a cabinet minister. - There is a call for an independent inquiry as the only way to resolve the matter. Porter spoke against the need for an inquiry as it is impossible to disprove something that did not happen. - As of yesterday Scott Morrison said he is standing by his minister. He has not read the letter. Pope:  Grace Tame, Australian of the Year and sexual abuse survivor and advocate, gave a Press Club talk yesterday: Grace Tame Press Club address targets Scott Morrison's 'as a father' response to rape allegation (ABC) Rowe:  Knight:  Linda Reynolds: Linda Reynolds does not deny reports she called Brittany Higgins a 'lying cow' (Guardian).
