Surprised the hell out of my history teacher when I had the answer for what number President Warren Harding was. Took me a minute and a half to get to that point of the song though lol

Morgoon@startrek.websiteto Politics@sh.itjust.works•Unelected Billionaire Elon Musk Is Shutting Down the Government Agency USAIDEnglish51·6 months agoTom Hanks made a movie parodying this 40 years ago. Yale grad goes on a mission to Thailand with the Peace Corps to build a bridge “for the community” but it’s a CIA operation to create a trade route for a heroin drug lord. This used to be common knowledge
Morgoon@startrek.websiteto politics @lemmy.world•Biden's Middle East Policy Is Horrific. Trump's Would Be Even Worse313·1 year agoThat kind of thinking is exactly what’s led us to picking “the lesser of two evils”. Also the RepubDems have put up the weakest candidates in modern history. If there was ever a time for a third party candidate to win the election it’d be this cycle. Have we ever seen a third party candidate this close to the election getting almost 20 percent in multiple states like RFK is?
Morgoon@startrek.websiteto politics @lemmy.world•Biden's Middle East Policy Is Horrific. Trump's Would Be Even Worse422·1 year agoDr Jill Stein got arrested protesting for Palestine. She’s most likely getting my vote unless RFK’s poll numbers continue surging and it seems like he could actually win.
There’s no way I’m letting this country make me believe my only choice is between two racist octogenarians. That is not democracy.
That is fun, the only other media I’ve seen like that is Quest for Fire (1981) starring Ron Pearlman

Morgoon@startrek.websiteto politics @lemmy.world•Senator calls LGBTQ+ people 'filth,' says most don't want them here3·1 year agoI think you’re overestimating the competence of LEO. Christopher Dorner was hunting cops (vs unarmed lawmakers) in the midst of one of one of the US’s largest man hunts and he got away with it for two weeks.
Morgoon@startrek.websiteto politics @lemmy.world•Senator calls LGBTQ+ people 'filth,' says most don't want them here57·1 year agoThere absolutely are, never forget the first pride parade was a riot.
"When did you ever see a removed fight back? … Now, times were a-changin’. Tuesday night was the last night for bullshit … Predominantly, the theme [w]as, “this shit has got to stop!”
“…the crowd shouted “Pigs!” and “removed cops!” Beer cans were thrown and the police lashed out, dispersing some of the crowd who found a construction site nearby with stacks of bricks…Garbage cans, garbage, bottles, rocks, and bricks were hurled at the building, breaking the windows. Witnesses attest that “flame queens”, hustlers, and gay “street kids”—the most outcast people in the gay community—were responsible for the first volley of projectiles, as well as the uprooting of a parking meter used as a battering ram”
Vegan from protein shakes lol
Brave Robot! I tried it recently, it was good!
