Seriously I have been so tilted by the tweets of the Governor, AG and two senators from Texas. They are all total pieces of shit going full throttle right now.
If I see the indicted AG tweet about not allowing law breaking lack of deportation, one more time, I am going to punch a giraffe. If the Governor doesnât stop tweeting about how happy he is he is crushing abortions in a week, I am going to punch a rhino.

Iâm going to need some clarification on the claim that women couldnât have bank accounts before the 1960âs because Iâm pretty sure thatâs bullshit. Iâm guessing some part of the civil rights act said banks canât discriminate on gender which is important and significant, but thatâs a long ways off from saying they canât have a bank account in the same way they couldnât vote until the 19th amendment.

They could have a bank account if a male co-signed. I know a lot of shit seems from a long ass time ago but this country is young. Itâs only a few generations.

This is definitely true of anything with an aspect of credit. Women were seen as bad credit risks so any loan required cosigner.

And I really donât need any more notifications that âxxxxx has opened an investigation into this obviously criminal thing Trump or his enablers did,â or the even less relevant ârandom democrat wrote a letter asking someone to look into obvious crimes.â
Wake me up when literally anything bad happens to any of them, ie never.

Was there was something up thread about Biden muttering âsalute the marinesâ because someone in an ear piece told him to do it, but he just said it? Was that fake? Someone I know tweeted it and I want to tell them it was fake.
Iâm sure that was policy at many banks for many women. But âbanks can discriminateâ means a very different thing than âwomen canât have a bank accountâ.
Why the hell is lady liberty crying? This is a good thing. Politics should be boring to average people. Politics shouldnât involve popcorn. Like take lady liberty out and this could easily be a pro-Biden cartoon. ARGH triggered

No itâs stupid. The thesis seems to be that politics should be like a riveting page turner every day and thatâs what makes lady liberty happy.

Itâs one of those lies that people post on lefty Twitter that youâre not supposed to point out because it has truthiness.
Seems like an odd hill to defend. Until legislation prevented discrimination, there was an institutional bias that made it much more difficult, likely impossible in many cases. After all, why would a woman need a bank account if she was home making sammies like a good wife should be?

Itâs not a coincidence divorce rates began to skyrocket once women werenât discriminated against. I mean yea maybe a nice lady in 1940 opened a bank account without consent from her husband. But she probably had to deal with interest rates 3-4x higher than a man. Point is, women opening bank accounts on their own were few and far between.
I read it as if she was crying about the stupidity of the reaction of the others.
This is where some Garrison styled captions could really help!

Lol it is satire! I had seen some by that guy before and not realized it. Cool. Didnât know he was in the Onion - that context makes all the difference to get the satire.

The joke is that the cartoonist is supposed to be a cranky old conservative. Itâs a parody of Garrison style cartoons. So, ha ha this dumb old cartoon artist is criticizing Biden for being a boring policy driven president.
