Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida and Gov. Greg Abbott of Texas, both Republicans, signed legislation to prevent local governments from requiring heat protections
Listen up conservatives, Republicans want your working conditions to return to the fucking hell they were before Upton Sinclair wrote The Jungle.
They’d rather you die of heat stroke at 30 than get a state or federally mandated water break but you’re too fucking stupid to realize this applies to you too and not just the minority groups you think you’re punishing every time you vote GOP. Wake the fuck up and stop voting for these vicious psychopaths. They are never going to do anything that ever helps you or serves your interests let alone those of society as a whole.
The Onion is just on fire lately. They’re figuring out how to do satire again in the worst timeline.
It’s actually because The Onion was sold to Jeff Lawson (founder of Twilio) at the end of April. He appointed Ben Collins, formerly a senior reporter at NBC News covering “disinformation, extremism and the internet” as the CEO. Here’s what he had to say:
“My friends and I now own and run The Onion. I’ll be the CEO. We’re keeping the entire staff, bringing back The Onion News Network, and shar[ing] the wealth with staff. Basically, we’re going to let them do whatever they want. Get excited.”
Are you asking me or just deliberately being a dick about a spelling mistake? Don’t answer that. It’s a rhetorical question.
Nope, as far as I’m aware a motive hasn’t been made public. But I’m willing to chalk it up to some people just being miserable jerks.
TBH I never expected the perps to be black. It will quite interesting to unpack their motives and put it into some historical perspective regarding purposeful, inadvertent or ignorant destruction by European colonial invaders in, uh… everywhere else in the world.
Wanna know how I know you only glanced at the picture?
Pfftt, amateur hour. You’re not a real capitalist success story until you’ve hoarded enough wealth to afford hiring a poor person to do your fork-stabbing for you.
Yeah, I used to run into you in r/skeptic a lot, fighting the good fight lol. And we both know the mods of that sub let it be overrun with all types of deniers and insane conspiracy theorists… But at least those trolls put a little more effort into it than just scoffing at experts.
Apparently those brainiacs with their fancy book learnin’ and expertise are useless. We must all sift through hundreds of thousands of pages of raw data before reaching any conclusions. The entire concept of career specialization is wrong! Throw it out!
“I’m not a climate change denier but why does anyone care what experts think?!” 🙄
It’s satire. Despite the community being called The Onion, articles from all satire sites are allowed. See the sidebar for an (incomplete) list of links.
I return your pettiness to you. Bye now. 👋
lmao oh no! Anyway…
lol okay pal, that’s enough of you. Bye now. 👋
I don’t think that’s a reasonable ask

“hands would be magenta” my guy you probably shoulda googled that word before committing to it.
Magenta is a purple-ish red color which on it’s own doesn’t really work as a reference to blood, but the author chose that specific color because it’s also the name of Blue’s friend next door, a dog named Magenta.

Perhaps you should’ve googled that before committing to your comment?
I’m really looking forward to this movie. I went into the audiobook knowing nothing about the story and could not have enjoyed it more, I think it’s Andy Weir’s best work. But with Lord & Miller at the helm along with Ryan Gosling set to star? I can’t imagine a better line up working on this adaptation. It’s going to give The Martian (2015) one hell of a run for it’s money.
I’ll be sure to forward that video to thehardtimes.net. Hopefully they’ll tease the ghost of Carl Sagan equally to settle any concerns of unfair treatment.
She’ll get a slap on the wrist like every other one of these treasonous fucks have but she was an intern for a US Senator and absolutely knew better. She was there to overthrow the government and install a fascist dictatorship. She should be facing life in prison without the possibility of parole at a minimum.
