Stone Cold Jane Austen smackdown!

I’m fairly certain that episode aired at least a week before the dinner shown in this post. It’s like reality couldn’t stand to be outdone by South Park.

Unfortunately, it does make sense through a neo-nazi lens. “The wrong side won WWII” and similar sentiments are getting a lot of traction on twitter, facebook, etc. right now. The OP in the image is sarcastically “glad” that the Allies won. He would have preferred that the nazis had won so the global third reich could protect Murfreesboro, TN from people who are different than him and fulfill whatever other twisted racist fantasies exist in these people’s minds.

The only reason the military is able to swoop in and stop Goldfinger is because he was still able to gather and transmit intel even as a prisoner. Plus, Pussy Galore didn’t release the actual deadly gas because James told her it was fatal and not harmless like Goldfinger had said. Her “switching sides,” of course, paralleling the creepy “fixing her lesbian-ness” overtones.

It’s not that he’s a bad spy for getting captured, it’s that he’s good enough to save the day even from captivity.

However, he is a bad spy for getting both of the Masterson sisters killed.

Sounds like you’re describing sympathy, not empathy. Empathy doesn’t require compassion and it doesn’t require forgiveness.

The main thesis of this entire comment section is the vital importance of empathizing, but not necessarily sympathizing, with those who have crossed any line of social or moral depravity to better understand what led them there. Just saying “they’re monsters by some inherent flaw of character that I couldn’t possibly possess and they don’t deserve to live” is just sweeping the problem under the rug and denying its potential in every other person.

Those are legs so the line doesn’t fall down.

Checked it out. Not a fan. You can’t even browse their catalog until you’ve given them credit card info, but from what I can gather, their selection is pretty lacking outside of the genres they choose to focus on.

I really want to see the front of the train model that’s just out of frame that presumably has eyes but no face.

and the users are revolting

Yeah, they’ve always been a little off, haven’t they?

That’s just if you’re talking about the presidency. Mitch McConnell still holds his office in the senate today, years after publicly freezing in confusion multiple times.

The 85th percentile rule is why Civil Engineers catch shit about not being real engineers. It’s basically:

“How fast can cars safely go on this road?”

“I dunno. How fast are they going now?”

Speed limit should be factored into (and a function of) road design, not just measured and guessed at after the fact.
