Post you from a different era in your life I’m the one on the right

A picture of Pete standing at Seneca Point holding his 1 year old daughter. Pete is wearing a red and white polo and he has a chubby face with a five o’clock shadow and a full head of hair. His daughter is literally the cutest ever, wearing a colorful bottom - can’t tell if it’s shorts or a flirt - a white shirt, and a pink/ red hat. Pete and his daughter are both smiling

Who saw this coming? Me. I know they would have gotten crucified if they had traded Lowe but this season went off the rails in May and June when GMBC didn’t do anything about the bullpen and instead of building a cushion in the Wild Card race they hovered around .500.

A screenshot of my BlueSky post from July 31st that says “It's amazing how quickly a promising season has gone to a great big pile of suck.
I know there's a lot of baseball left but this team is more than a couple relievers away.
They should sell.”

Not necessarily, but what Israel is doing is genocide based on how it is defined by the United Nations. For the love of God they have stopped food and humanitarian aid from going into Gaza again and again. Maybe you disagree that this definition of genocide is accurate. Can you at least admit

1r Welcome to the United Nations

Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide
Article I|
In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:
1. Killing members of the group;
2. Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of
the group;
3. Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
4. Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
5. Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

For pizza, Mineo’s in Squirrel Hill is the quintessential Pittsburgh pie in my opinion but Driftwood Oven in Lawrenceville is a more modern, cultured take that hits it out of the park. The Italian sandwich at Driftwood Oven is one of the best things I’ve ever eaten

A screenshot of the menu describing Driftwood Oven’s Italian Sandwich - ITALIAN
mortadella, capicola, pepperoni, provola cheese, spicy pickled peppers, greens, thin onions, aioli* and italian dressing on sourdough focaccia

Guys give me some grace with a couple things I said here - specifically my disdain for single payer healthcare and my statement that Donald’s Supreme Court justices would be just as bad as Hillary’s. I’ve grown lot in 10 years. Having said that - holy cow did I predict a lot of what has actually

I believe that in every case Trump is as bad or worse than Hillary.
I understand the reasons that people are voting for Trump. That said, if we as a country put him in the White House, I believe we will regret it.
We will regret it when he cuts taxes and the deficit is worse than it ever was under Obama.
We will regret it when he sends the best of our young men and women to get blown up in 1,2,3,4 or more new wars.
We will regret it when inflation is at or near an all time high because of the trade wars and tariffs that he will enact.
We will regret it when his Supreme Court nominees are indistinguishable from those that Hillary would have nominated.
We will regret it when, true to his word, he does nothing to prevent more and more nations from developing nuclear weapons.

The second screenshot of the same comment -

We will regret it when Obamacare is repealed and replaced with a single payer system, which Trump has supported for years.
We will regret it when the 1st amendment is no longer worth the paper it is written on.
We will regret it when the 4th amendment is no longer worth the paper it's written on.
We will regret it when the 14th amendment is no longer worth the paper it's written on.
Hillary will be bad for the country. Trump will be an unmitigated disaster.

Without saying your age, post your favorite film that was released the year you turned 18 I always feel really old when I see that the people I follow are for the most part a good bit younger than I am

If you see this, I implore you to post a picture from whatever device you're using with no explanation.

Looking through my Facebook memories and damn, I called out the coming fascism ten fucking years ago. This is why I have no patience for people saying “This isn’t what I voted for” and “how could we have seen this coming?” So many of us saw it coming and tried to tell you
