If black makes it hotter, then why are red, orange, and yellow called "hot" colors?

Checkmate, conservatives.

Hilarious. Let’s waste more money. Can we try the Joker-method next? Just torch a big pile of cash and call it a day.

I see a red wall and I want to paint it black...

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

This is the same border wall they've been pulling down with Toyotas?

Coneheads movie was ahead of it's time: https://youtu.be/yGNSxME5Z_s&t=14:40

If you own that movie already and connect your account to movies anywhere so YouTube will give it to you for free your link will not take you to the timestamp. It will just take you to the beginning of the actual movie, just letting you know.

Oh look CBS news, the presidents personal boot licking journalists.

[–] undefined@lemmy.hogru.ch 2 points 3 weeks ago

Is that why my fake news and/or conspiracy/conservative blocklists block CBS News? I wasn’t sure but I just let it continue to be blocked.

Why don’t they get MAGAts with bayonets to stand guard every 3 feet?

Magas think that Mexicans hate black as much as they do

So there is a market for white spray paint South of the border? Got my new side hustle!
