sparing friends from my political shenanigans in this trying time our year of the lord 2017

I have a theory about pop musicians

The theory is this: There are thousands if not tens of thousands of acts competent enough to be professionally produced and recorded by the major labels, but we are only mass-exposed to those acts that the major labels are capable of using to drive the current media narrative forward.

Your fave isn’t among a tiny fraction of the best musicians on earth your fave is total pushover who happens to have leverageable talent.

[goo-major]

Wait, so you mean to tell me that generic 6'2" handsome country boy that talk raps over badly compressed guitar chords and a clap machine is NOT among the best musicians on earth?

[dumbpoliticalposts]

Classic country player: chickin pickin on the bridge pickup into the brightest fender amp ever heard. Sounds great. Perfect control of dynamics.

Modern country player: 10 compressors on pedalboard, sounds like nickleback.

WRY

Ah yes, because we all know that it didnt take any effort or materials at all to purify or bottle that water.

I can get behind it for natural disasters but beyond that, stop trying to make people work for nothing.

[dumbpoliticalposts]

Even that is kinda freaky, since the plan seems to be to declare global warming an ongoing “forever disaster” just as an excuse to take all resources away and have the government dole them out inefficiently. banning meat, banning single family homes, banning non-public transportation.

when u have so many things u want to draw that it becomes overwhelming so u just do nothing

Ok so last week I was hanging out with a friend and he told me that, when he was a child, he used to have a vhs tape with some random tv shows on it. And he says, “you know that sheep gif? that show was on the vhs, but I can’t remember how it was called, and google isn’t helping.” so we spent the weekend trying to find it, and we did! anyways the video was made by a cult

[fuchinobe]

This post sent me down an insane rabbit hole last night, the cult that made this has a thing for fantasizing about having sex with Jesus:

Cool tips for hot sex!

[pigeonbusiness]

I have never encountered a post that legit made me feel like I’ve been punched in the chest before.

[hungry-skeleton]

This started as a relatable artist meme but quickly turned into a horny cultist-driven train wreck

[vivaciousarcanist]

[brainbubblegum]

Oh hey, look, it’s the cult that brainwashed the guitarist from Fleetwood Mac

[skodasforge]

This is also the same cult that Rose McGowan and Joaquin and River Phoenix grew up in

I know several people may find this to be some sort of scam, so I went digging for sources on this and found several that support the claims made in this screenshot.

Here are a few of them:

Footage of a Planned Parenthood manager offering advice on how to cover up bringing in people "illegally" from other countries as well as how to deal with pregnant girls fourteen and under

Footage of several undercover interviews revealing multiple clinic workers willing to help child sex traffickers

Interview with former Planned Parenthood manager Ramona Treviño on how the organization disgusted her with how it decided to deal with women experiencing abuse and/or sex trafficking

Report on video footage and interview with Ms. Treviño

Report on YouTube removing an investigative video exposing Planned Parenthood aiding and abetting the sex trafficking of young girls

Report on Planned Parenthood's failure to report child sex trafficking and Live Action's published investigation

Report on Planned Parenthood covering up sex trafficking, rape, child abuse, condoning racism, and how its founder, Margaret Sanger, supported eugenics

Sex trafficking of children is federal crime, as is obstructing or attempting to obstruct the enforcement of this law.

Live Action has a channel on YouTube. The channel has playlists on videos about interviews with former Planned Parenthood employees, undercover footage, investigations, and more.

[thesleepingnotsobeauty]

If y'all want to dimiss all of the claims here because you don't trust the sites for being conservative sites/pro-life sites, I found a New York Times article of Planned Parenthood's response to the undercover videos: https://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/08/us/08parenthood.html?

(Use private browsering to get around the payroll if the site says you have run out of free articles)

PlannedParenthood did not deny the videos as being fake and said they would work on training all their staff on how to deal with child abuse/child trafficking. If these videos were fake PP would have denied these allegations and most likely would have sued LiveAction for slander. 

[speaktruthtoleftists]

PP didn't even bother to deny the charges.

Yup.

The rich are getting more rich tho

[ashbur-deactivated20250915]

YOU. CAN. BUY. INSULIN. FOR. 25 usd. WITHOUT. A. PRESCRIPTION. AT. WALMART.

Big pharma doesn’t want you to know, but insulin is more accessible to many people than they think. Anyways, eat the rich.

[hella-cute-and-fruity-dykefag]

DON’T DO THAT BC THAT’S A DIFFERENT BRAND THAN YOU USUALLY GET, AND THEREFORE A DIFFERENT DOSAGE THAN WHAT YOU’RE USED TO.

if you take the same dose of a different brand of insulin, like the guy in the story did, there’s a good chance you will either critically overdose or critically underdose and either way you’ll be in trouble.

[swoglet]

DO NOT!!!!! attempt to put “walmart insulin” into an insulin pump or pen. If you must use it, TALK TO THE PHARMACIST ON THE FLOOR and CALL YOUR ENDOCRINOLOGIST(or educator) for information on how to dose this. Do not consult the internet. The only place online I recommend consulting is type 1 support groups–there’s a chance someone with insulin paid for by insurance can spare a vial. Also TALK TO YOUR ENDO!!!!! They carry fridges FULL of samples of novolog/humalog. Trust me. The drug reps give them free vials like candy. My endo always makes sure if someone’s low on supply, she sends them home with at least two vials. Explain your situation. They get it. AND call your general physician. Chances are good they have vials in their fridges as well. These two types of insulin are wildly different and WILL cause harm. Keep an eye on your insulin stock and try not to get to this point; your doctors (despite what you may think of them) WILL try to help you in ways they can. Always ask for samples. Be safe, t1ds.

[noctumsolis]

This man specifically died after taking cheaper insulin and people reblog it telling others to do the same.

[dumbpoliticalposts]

And they are right to, it wasn’t like it was Value Choice insulin that someone spit in. You have to read the dosage, just like anything else you buy.

I’ve worked with these kids, and I will tell you this, we all have the r-word pass. It’s non-disabled white women that have issues with everything. Try saying “we don’t use that word“ to one of these kids and they will ask if you’re retarded 😂

#SaveSnopes

#SaveSnopes - Snopes.com is in danger of shuttering. Read the staff's plea to the community.

Snopes.com, which began as a small one-person effort in 1994 and has since become one of the Internet’s oldest and most popular fact-checking sites, is in danger of closing its doors.  So, for the first time in our history, we are turning to you, our readership, for help.

Since our inception, we have always been a self-sustaining site that provides a free service to the online world: we’ve had no sponsors, no outside investors or funding, and no source of revenue other than that provided by online advertising. Unfortunately, we have been cut off from our historic source of advertising income.

We had previously contracted with an outside vendor to provide certain services for Snopes.com. That contractual relationship ended earlier this year, but the vendor will not acknowledge the change in contractual status and continues to essentially hold the Snopes.com web site hostage. Although we maintain editorial control (for now), the vendor will not relinquish the site’s hosting to our control, so we cannot modify the site, develop it, or — most crucially — place advertising on it. The vendor continues to insert their own ads and has been withholding the advertising revenue from us.

Our legal team is fighting hard for us, but, having been cut off from all revenue, we are facing the prospect of having no financial means to continue operating the site and paying our staff (not to mention covering our legal fees) in the meanwhile.

As misinformation has increasingly threatened democracies around the world (including our own), Snopes.com has stood in the forefront of fighting for truth and dispelling misinformation online. It is vital that these efforts continue, so we are asking the Snopes.com community to donate what they can. (Our suggested donation is $10, but if you can give more please consider doing so — every little bit helps.)

Virginia wants to ban private gun ranges for minorities

It’s racist to require photo ID for voting, right? 

[philosoverted-deactivated202006]

I keep thinking about how henry cavill had to taper off water for like three days before shooting any shirtless scene in the witcher and how chris evans pretty much did the same thing playing cap, and honestly hearing that full-on broke any sense of attraction I've ever had for that kind of definition on a guy. I'd had no idea that's what it takes, and if that's what it takes then that's not a thing for me. Drink some fucking water, jesus christ

[stele3]

Everyone should know and understand this. Healthy, hydrated skin is plump and soft. If you see anyone with tons of muscle definition, it’s probably because they’re badly dehydrated to the point of needing an IV.

Basic common sense.

If you think men should only be hot if they support you, you’re sexist and objectifying.

I wonder if Idris feels the same way about the cops pulling him over simply because he’s black. After all, if he’s got nothing to hide then what’s the problem? /s

Ricky went for the throat and I loved it. I could see some of the audience in shock and that was honestly the only thing needed to prove they’re a bunch of disgusting hypocritical garbage fires. This isn’t even the only thing he called them out on. It was great.

[theindependentconservative]

…..Imma gonna go find a video of this if it exists out there

[dumbpoliticalposts]

Not only does it exist, after that he says “boohoo you had to fly your own planes today“ like 😂 (too bad hes a gun grabber, maybe he’ll come around after burning all his hollywood bridges down)
