The Pope is the best thing to happen to the Chicago White Sox in living memory. Not like the actual team will be getting anywhere anytime soon considering they currently they are 35-65 this year and set a record for the most losses in a single season in the modern era in 2024.
Yes, I remember there were plans and pictures showing weird underground areas that looked unfinished. It was totally denied afterwards. And as I recall, the guy with the gun who shot one bullet into the place just happened to shoot through the door and hit the business's computer tower. Sounds like a conspiracy theory, right? Except James "Alefantis" went on local news and showed the cameras how the one bullet fired just happened to hit the computer system. Oh well! Nothing to see there! I guess the computer and its contents just had to be scrapped!
I don't know where the name comes from specifically, but the theme of the place was that families could come and play ping pong at a pizza parlor. That never seemed particularly appealing to me, but I don't have kids. It's weirder to me that there would be so many high level DC connections with a family-oriented pizza place whose schtick was this one family activity. If it was a fancy restaurant or even a local fixture around for a long, long time, I'd understand being part of DC politics. But a family-oriented pizza restaurant founded in the recent past whose main draw is having ping pong activities for kids and their parents? It doesn't make much intuitive sense. It's like if the Florida legislature had a bunch of political connections centered around a Margaritaville. It just doesn't sound right.
Calvinism is one of the worst mainstream Protestant denominations, besides Methodists. Though some of the Presbyterians in my area are huge theology nerds, the majority of those who belong to any flavor of Calvinism tend to be pretty liberal (accepting of gays, women pastors, abortion, etc.) or extremely pro-Israel. John Calvin may have been one of the more intellectual members of the Protestant Reformation, but his reforms ultimately resulted in horrendous doctrinal missteps.
The Pope is probably the best thing to happen to the entirety of Chicago in several years. The city is a crime-ridden hellhole with rampant corruption, abundant ghettos, serial murderers, and insufferable "diverse folk." Despite the fact that the papacy has been subverted by modern liberalism, I hope that Pope Leo XIV does not completely embrace globohomo and presents a more conservative worldview. However, I'm likely being optimistic.
Bush and the Neocons self destructing over the 2000s cleared a path for woke to fully embed itself in the institutions in a way that wasn't as blatant in the 90s.
> It's not my fault I had to hire Mexicans illegally to work my factory farm! I just wanted EVERYONE ELSE'S illegals deported!
He was a lib, probably harris
This one is hard for me because when he's not talking about Israel or jews he makes pretty good posts.
I wish we were in the timeline where Swat Katz was not cancelled to make way for Captain Planet.
Well, obviously the Dem! Everyone a cunthair to the right of Honorable Chairman Mao himself is a turbonazi polluting industrialist villain right out of, well, a Captain Planet episode. Funny how that worked out.
Well, he wouldn't have voted for Hillary Clinton since she wasn't as pro-environmentalism as other Democrats. I think CTR is right about Kamala. I'm almost surprised there wasn't a Captain Planet revival for the Chocolate Messiah.
Most of stances on things are because the people advocating for the other side are so ontologically retarded that I would rather coat them with my own brain matter so they might know what one feels like than actually support them. Biggest example is abortion where I ended up going from supporting it to being against it, mostly because the side that's pro-abortion is so dedicated to putting it on a pedestal while having zero coherent arguments for it. I'm starting to go through the same thing with thinking "democratic rule" is fucking stupid given it's lead to bad faith actors getting in charge and stacking the deck with people who will only ever support them while being completely removed from the consequences.
Would be? He was. The dude literally groomed children to destroy private property. Captain Planet had more in common with Hitler than the average superhero.
No, you silly. If you have only have two choices and one is 1000% sooper evil, and the other one is only 100% plain evil, you vote for to 100% plain evil, and you better be damn grateful for the opportunity, lest ye be labeled a CHUD.
Don Cheadle notwithstanding? I found his performance most apt.
“For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: and likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.”
Whoever would give Ted Turner more money.
