I was looking up weird Rule 34 stuff (for a friend) when I remembered this gem. It's been a little over six years, yet this picture remains the first and only real result when googling "Rule 34 Pinecones."
Master_Ghost_Knight, you are the sole producer and creative force behind an entire...

From this, I gather that she believed the invitation wasn't as serious as it sounded, and backed out because it seemed more like a PR moment than a productive meeting...
Didn't know about BLM refusing to speak with Obama, that's kind of... yeah, mind blowing. Sort of adds to my frustration, even with leadership they seem to not have their priorities straight. Was there a reason for that, or was it more like a stubborn refusal on the grounds of some arbitrary...
Hey, long time no see. Not sure where exactly to post this, here or in Philosophy, but I'll let the mods worry about that.
I guess I'll start by clarifying that I support the core objectives of the movement: Reform in use of excessive force by the police, rooting out the racist members of the...
How you kids doin'?
So I've been living easy, not giving a shit about what other people believe so long as they return the favor, and that's been pretty chill. Worked with a guy that was all "Born-Again Christian but also believes in reptilian aliens" and I just nodded when he talked about it...
My account activity on this board should say everything anyone needs to know ;)
I think my reasons boil down to getting older. The peak of my interest in the whole topic started five years ago (holy shit!), and since then I went from unemployed college dropout to someone with actual...
Finally decided to give Kerbal a try, and gee whiz, have I been missing out. Had to take a break after about a week straight, got to orbiting the moon and went for a landing, but ran out of fuel with no chance of landing or making it back home, so I let the little guy go for one last EVA as the...
This was a great short story I stumbled upon late last night, and the rest of the guy's fiction is pretty good as well. Sorry, it's really good, and I was up until nearly dawn reading it all. Anyway, it's pretty self explanatory, he talks to God on a train and learns, more or less, what the...
I expected this thread to have tens of pages by now. Muy disappoint. Here's a stimulus:
Lambitive - n. a medicine to be licked, such as a cough drop
Theic - n. one addicted to immoderate tea-drinking
Murgeon - n. a grimace
Frantling - n. the noise made by peacocks
Abequitate - v. to ride...
First off, I love that guy. To be blunt in my opinion, fuck banks. For a number of reasons, but the worst being how they can just take your money, be it overcharging for services the customers never agreed to or knew existed or just making up fees. And even on the rare occasion that anyone...

And activist group from Egypt, the Maspero Youth Union, basically says that this goes against the ideals of cultural and religious diversity behind last years uprising, and that the revolution has ways to go before their goals are met. It seems, more often than not, that when these...
“There were honest people long before there were Christians and there are, God be praised, still honest people where there are no Christians. It could therefore easily be possible that people are Christians because true Christianity corresponds to what they would have been even if Christianity...
Damn, I thought this was legitimate. Like, in a lab in Brighton, they fucking did it, trans-dimentional contact. For the briefest of moments, I remembered what the time between waking up on Christmas and opening the first gifts felt like again. The quiet chuckle that article gave me was okay...
