So, based purely on the current cash value of silver, Jesus was sold out for about $200. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thirty_pieces_of_silver (Though, at the time, it was about 4 months' wages)

What probably stinks for Republicans looking at Trump is knowing that he’s literally their best shot at keeping the White House unless they totally overhaul their platform. No other Republican in the country has the independent support he has (or had). Once he’s gone, be it through losing re-election, failing outright to finish his term, or even if he winds up term-limited in 2024, they’re going to be back to where they were with Mitt Romney, whose failure to gain moderate support rendered Obama’s “blue wall”, for all its faults, virtually insurmountable.

@mrmattimation No ! That is where I **absolutely** draw the line.
Thinking stuff like that will only beget more trouble, if you are halfway kidding it would, if you are serious it definitely would.
If anything the Overton window is real and currently neo-nazi's are in the minority ( as they should be ) but so are AntiFa people ( especialy those who just seem to want to cause trouble and destroy property ). and I am GLAD that those are the extremes that a western nation is dealing with. Still though, they are quite extreme. Just to pull a quote that is not even 2 months old “I’m grateful this was largely a peaceful event,”, “We were preparing for and planning for a worst-case scenario.” that was Mayor Ted Wheeler

Split of the moment thought : How long did it take Twitter to become profitable or even sustainable anyway ?
dig dig dig
Almost 12 years ! First profitable Q was Q4 of 2018. And here I was having the shadow-thought that everyone would lose their account if the thing goes under anyway.Wednesday, 02-Oct-19 22:54:31 UTC from web- Jonathan Chouinard likes this.

@drinkingpony That's actually kind of my point. For as many, and as diverse, options as there are, Twitter seems to have an outsized importance in the world's affairs.
-
@scribus I have to imagine it’s because, unlike Reddit and 4chan and in some ways unlike tumblr and Facebook, Twitter is a single ecosystem. There are no groups, there’s no structural division, they don’t have a separate directory for anything... it’s like writing o a very, very, very big wall, and everyone else in the world is writing on the same wall.
-
@scribus I think I kinda see what you mean, but in the same breath it was not Twitter that got scrutinized after a certain madman besmirched one of my favourite Initial D songs somewhere over in New Zealand. Those were 8Chan, Kiwifarms, Facebook, Discord and 9gag.
Actually Discord is having a really double reason there.
Not to mention that there are enough people around that hate the Twitter Verified Blue Checkmark ( http://rainbowdash.net/url/875246 ) seeing it as a "blue pill" or "Loony Lefty approved club"
It is actually that specific part where I think you are wrong when you say "Twitter is a single ecosystem. There are no groups," ( @mrmattimation @notice/5464941) . But you are right in that it's like a cocktail party with everyone, there is no structural division. Just a battle over who has the most trending hashtag. Unless if you want to count popularism and realize that if you are a nobody with the greatest thing to say, you will still be ignored.Jonathan Chouinard likes this.

@mrmattimation Hmm, that actually is pretty funny yeah. I guess he shall not promote Trump Steak, or Trump Whiskey, or Trump University after he's done being the POTUS. Especially with the amount of followers he has RN just because he holds that office it would be quite, ehmm, bothersome to say the least.

Why are people in that twitter thread sharing a picture of the 1972 election and treating it like a victory ? ( http://rainbowdash.net/url/875240 )
I mean if it is a quip about how Trump is a crook then they pretty much say 25% of the people inside of the U.S.A. to be stupid ( 56% of America voted, out of which roughly half voted for Trump ).
You garner no good will with those people, and you want those people to NOT vote Trump in 2020. So that is pretty much the equivallent of a 12 year old throwing a temper tantrum going "YOU'RE WRONG !"
But hey, I can see their point. But there was a smart and a stupid way to go about it from my perspective. and... "She chose, poorly" ( I kinda thought a Last Crusade quote would fit well, seeing I think the Democrats should rally before they actually become responsible for a Orange-inspired 2nd term )Wednesday, 02-Oct-19 17:12:29 UTC from web- Jonathan Chouinard likes this.

@mrmattimation Yeah and he was pardoned by Gerald Ford. Do you really think a country like the U.S.A. is going to still have the U in it should something like that happen again somewhere after 2019 ? In the days which I heard coined 'culture warfare'-era ? But you did not even need to bring that up, my original point still stands.

With all of the leaks that kept happening, you’d think that everything that could be leaked about this administration would have already been leaked by now, but this week’d prove you wrong.

@mrmattimation That is absolutely right, though we would no doubt get into a Dexter vs Mandark slapfight situation over the real definition of 'leak' ( and even less doubt regarding 'what is and what is not a whistle-blower' ).

@mrmattimation Nope, I have no idea what an intentionally topical joke is, considdering I do not know the topic RN.
However I was not talking about your "Couch Gag" things. I was talking about, oh Idunno, Swole Foods, and the Twin Souls, and pretty much all the conversations we, well, some of them did not end well. Still, you slowly but surely get to feel what sort of person you are dealing with.
As such I feel like I kinda know what kinda humor you would like, and the kind you would not like. As such a conversation of what is 'acceptable humor' between the two of us would be quite hard, if not completely abstract.
So who is to say what is and is not deserving of a good old round of Twitter/SocialMedia hatredstorm ? The mob ?
And if it is the mob, do you think that the mob will change when Trump has vacated the White House ? I could make a terrible pun regarding those who shall not be erased RN. But that could be in poor taste, and we both know they will still be around after TrumpJonathan Chouinard likes this. -
@drinkingpony Trump comes up literally once in the entirety of The Twin Souls and he isn’t even mentioned by name, what the hell are you on about

@mrmattimation I was not saying that Trump was in a thing you made. Not at all.
I was saying that I can make a pretty damn well estimate as to what you'll like or what you will not like.
Hence why, and I will quote myself : "I dare to bet on a day of soberness that where I set the bar for what is and is not funny might as well be on a different pane of existence compared to where you put the bar. That is if we were to estimate the distance between the 2 proverbial bars."Jonathan Chouinard likes this.
