Suspect who pushed 2 women off German cliff had 'deep red marks all over'

While visiting Germany's Neuschwanstein Castle, a man assaulted two American women and then pushed them both off a steep cliff.

A lot of conservatives are just deeply insecure losers who are pissed off that other people are having fun and leading fulfilling lives without them and their stupid rules, which they know they have to force on people because no one else is as big a sucker as they are.

Why are white Texans who died bravely fighting to keep slavery going remembered as heroes? But white Texans who died bravely fighting to oppose slavery, forgotten and not talked about? 🤔

What are we really celebrating?

"Everyone was racist back then!" No. No they weren't. Stop saying that.

Texas should look like Kid's hair. But it looks like Play's hair. Because Texas wanted to hold onto that racism just a little bit longer.

The Alamo was also a fight to preserve Texas's right to keep slavery going. They lost.

You can't just keep lying and changing how history is taught to hide the shamefulness of racism. If you want to be remembered as the good guys, maybe try being the good guys!

Otherwise, you'll just be embarrassed when your kids and grand kids learn the truth about you.

@shibashecurity absolutely!
@shibashecurity try it in a Manhattan as well, that’s where you’ll notice the biggest improvement over bourbon, IMO. And if you can find Rittenhouse it’s usually cheaper than Bulleit, and is far tastier.
@NikolajewDesign @The_Tim @playdate same as well.
Hey Playdate, what’s the latest eta for Group 5?

Juneteenth (June 19th) is not a "holiday celebrating when news of the end of slavery finally reached Texas." No. Just no. Y'all make it sound like network latency! Like we were playing Fortnite, and all the Black players were lagging.🤡

Juneteenth is when the racist state of Texas took another very public L. Texas did everything it could to keep slavery going as long as possible. They gave up land to Oklahoma, so they could be below the slavery line. The Alamo was a victory for abolitionists.

RT @NigelWitham

Mowing became fashionable during the Industrial Revolution when it was how the wealthy showed off they didn't need to grow their own food.

250 years on and manicured lawns are so embedded in our culture that despite the adverse impacts many can't envision any alternatives.

Chat GPT is great. If you are a teacher with writer’s block you can ask for something like “End of year comment for student who needs to have more confidence in their work and who asks good questions” and it will spit out *paragraphs* of the most bland, corporate, superlative content-free, schlock you’ve ever seen. This will make you so angry that you’ll remember how to write.

It’s all “actionable” this and “out of the box” that … omg just poke both my eyes out right now.
