    Not hornyposting at all when I say I need to see the american pikachu-redesign tiger with huge breasts and all the other design proposals from the american staff. Those sketches are historical artifacts and someone needs to dig them up and put them in a museum.



  • I know this is nitpicking but when you have Trump money, filing your taxes wrong to your significant benefit should earn this kind of derision. The problem is that it never does unless it’s in some way convenient for enough other people who benefit from filing their taxes wrong.

    I do agree with the sentiment that in the real world a crime against humanity is infinitely more meaningful than a felony and there’s a reason that there’s less focus on the Trump administration’s crimes against humanity.







  • Holy shit I had no idea politifact was that awful. The video quite obviously went viral for that brief moment where it seems like the “single word” is complete gibberish. I’m capable of imagining a person who doesn’t find that very funny (that person I’ve imagined is wrong btw), but it’s very hard for me to imagine a person who can actually watch the video and think it’s going viral for a different reason. The only place you can pause that video before he gets to the word “possibilities” that could possibly be interpreted as him having completed his thought is immediately after the gibberish, which they explicitly state is not where the post in question ends.

    It’s not that I doubted the many people who have said politifact is bad, but I always figured that being bad would involve more sleight of hand than just assuming their readers aren’t going to have seen the video in question. I was picturing something like refuting a claim by citing a reference to a source that most readers will find is too much effort to dig into, not relying on none of their readers having seen a very short clip they’re describing as viral.
