Swing and a miss

I’d be interested to see any sociological evidence supporting that theory if there is any.

Go to bed, Jordan Peterson

No doubt! But as others are pointing out in this thread, words often migrate from culture to culture and I don’t think using “thicc” is any more than using “cool” is (which also used to be edgy, AAVE-sourced slang).

“OH LAWD” in all caps hits different to me. It sounds like caricature of an accent, not just earnest adoption of a fun word.

I don’t think “thicc” is AAVE. That is pretty much an Internet-ism as the original post says. “OH LAWD” though, yeah, is cringe.

That cake looks pretty fancy for a racist gag. My understanding is that swastikas are pretty widespread as a generic “holy” decoration in India and Asia. I’m wondering if that image isn’t originally from a bakery from that region.

AGNG?

Thanks!

I mean, what is the background in the second image from?

Wait what am I looking at

Women are so missed and loved the fact they were down to you and I think they are you and big boy and I can get them out from here in a few days or two weeks until they can start by the way back in a bit I think it will autocomplete me know if I need it or anything or not to unilaterally it is also not the only one of them but it doesn’t have a great time for them but they have a great job and I think they’re not to be the best pizza ever had a webapp in their power orientation whatever it was a closed practice all day but they are becoming more of the best people who have a lot to go through some things

I’d like to try that!

Maybe a fireplace is a better example, since a wood stove is more sealed off from the room it’s in. I’ll have to read about the chimney effect.

I assume OP just did their best to make up an example. She doesn’t say anywhere that she is a superfan herself or even has read the books at all.

This summary from the Independent necessarily cuts out a lot of the nuance of AOC’s points - I say “necessarily” because she spoke on Instagram for a full hour - and one thing that she seemed to emphasize - more than the “They don’t 100% support Harris either” point - is there there is very little time remaining in the election year to make any changes to the ticket. There are just weeks until the Democratic convention, and Ohio requires the names to be finalized even before that. She also emphasized that any change to the ticket, especially any late change, increases the chance that the presidency will ultimately be decided - if not by the bureaucracy of a swing state, many of which, like Ohio, are Republican-controlled - then by a legal case that goes before the (corrupt, she didn’t need to explain, although there were arch eyebrows at this point) Supreme Court, which is just not an ideal situation for democracy.

Anyone’s allowed to talk, and media companies talk about whatever people will click on.

It’s a real Tumblr post!

You don’t need admin to plug your computer into the AV do you? I assumed it was OP’s computer.
