You know what they say, nothing beats thirst like a cop beats black people like a crisp cold coca cola. The cops beating up innocent people of beverages.

Yes indeed coca cola loves to assault your thirst. The way cops assault their wives.

Coca cola and cops, two peas one pod. Like two girls one cup. Except instead of two girls eating shit it’s coca cola.

Mmm. Coke.

Sweety.

Optional sweaty is the perfect amount of perspiration to have upon one’s person.

This particular missile is new, it’s just using an old idea.

Turns out we kinda figured out the best way to blow things up a long time ago and everything we’ve done since then has been a series of trade offs on the same handful of ideas.

It’s likely using “better” guidance technology, or goes faster, or can recite the pledge of allegiance as it ruthlessly murders innocent people.

Yeah that’s why you do it right at the end. Or you spam cultural improvements in larger cities so the neighboring cities are cool about all the war units you produce.

I like to let the other civs catch up a little bit before going to war, and wait till the end to dominate because the advanced tech is more fun

I did. But ejecting the Pope is a funny image so it stays.

You know how in the last few turns of Civilization, as the winner has become obvious you just start attacking every nation around you to use the military you’ve been building the entire game?

That’s where we’re at

It does, and will continue to do so.

The bishops responsible for ejecting the Pope are likely aware of this, and is by in large why Leo was chosen. The church really doesn’t get to set the cultural trend as much as nudge it in a particular direction. It’s the bumpers in a bowling alley, not the ball.

People are going to find something they don’t like,then seek justification for not liking it.

Two dudes fuckin, ew! I would never do that that’s so gross. Oh look, here’s this passage in this book I like saying that’s actually evil! Hell yeah!

When it looks like ‘Christians’ cherry pick passages to support whatever nonsense they’re on about, that’s because they are, always have done so and always will. Because the nonsense was always more important to them than the Bible. It just so happens that the Bible says a lot of shit that’s very easy to take out of context to support whatever nonsense you want.

The Pope is reading the room, and providing justification. Or rather, the Cardinals elected a Pope that aligns with the current climate and he’s just saying whatever God tells him to comes to mind. He might swing a few people but if he pushes too hard what he’ll just alienate some Catholics and they might break off and do their own thing, again.

Being an American and a good person is contradictory, what with the numerous genocides throughout her history and all, that being one of them.

I get what you’re saying but it’s hard to lay blame on a modern person for some shit a related group of people did 150 years ago. That’s like saying it’s impossible to be Irish and a good Catholic, what with the child slavery prisons, which are far more recent. Or that is impossible to be a Muslim and a good person, what with the things other Muslims have done in the name of God.

You’re responsible for you. Other people are responsible for themselves. Unless you happen to believe that every person is responsible for the sins of his father. Which, weirdly enough the Catholic Church does, but didn’t happen to be involved in that particular genocide.

Also, counterpoint, Mr Rogers. American, Christian, good person. Or Jimmy Carter.

Fun fact, prior to the stars being adopted, the Grand Union flag was literally just the British East India Company flag. Like, they didn’t even have one made, they took one off a boat and said “this is ours now”

There’s 102 stars.

That scene is funny to me because of how relatively soft dolomite is. It’s about half as hard as granite and many Egyptian statues are dolomite. Well. Dolomite Rock anyway which isn’t much different, and is what Farnsworth is referring to anyway.

Assuming human civilization lasts this long, in a hundred years they’re going to call this period the Resource Wars.

Volkswagen, supporting Nazis since 1937

Because to get a warrant for an arrest the police have to pretty conclusively show something is true*. The prosecutor can always add charges before trial. This gives them time and an excuse to collect evidence without allowing the suspect to flee.

*Unless that person is black.

I’LL TAKE THE BACK SEAT IN THE MIDDLE WITH THE HUMP

Wait till you learn how many Zionists were pro Nazi in 1939.

Call centers in general waste your time by design. They aren’t there to help you solve any problem. They’re there to smooth things over with the few customers angry enough to call when the corporate policy fucks them.

May the people responsible die painfully.

Raping children? Ok.

Rounding up random brown people and sending them to overseas concentration camps? Perfectly fine with it.

Gas is slightly more expensive? THAT’S THE FUCKING LINE
