Not a ringing endorsement for a restaurant - a head chef with the last name ‘Gruel.’
Didn't know where else to post this. Old but gold:
The chef in question smacks of quite the cnut.
Republicans are truly mentally deficient...

amazing. and the really insane stuff is in the "click to expand" in the quoted text
The Bidens meet The Burrowers (2021)
Why do they look like miniature people? Even their furniture looks small.
Right wingers will claim that picture is fake, just like they claim the OBL Situation Room picture is fake because Obama’s head was small.
Compassionate conservative...

They're in their 90s, people shrink.
Carter's shoes look massive, though.
Going to be an interesting fight for the soul of the Republican Party in 2022.
I'm confused watching CNN right now. Is Liz Cheney some kind of hero now?
And she voted against her own sister being able to get married? What a great human being...

Trumpism is the new conservatism. That trumps all
In their eyes, Trump was a champion of LGBTQ rights because Richard Grenell. Or something.
Can’t wait til they flog Liz with that.
She's definitely in the right on this handbags with McCarthy and Trump.
No wonder they really think democrats are socialists. I wonder what they call the communist party (I'm assuming there's one in america).
Yeah but all this ass kissing is a bit much, no? "she's a mum of 5", wtf does that matter?

Tennessee state Rep. Justin Lafferty (R) on Tuesday argued that the three-fifths compromise should be held up as a positive but "bitter" part of U.S. history when arguing for a bill that would prohibit critical race theory from being taught in Tennessee public schools.
The lawmaker went on to argue that the agreement to count three-fifths of a slave population when determining taxation and representation in the U.S. House was intended to help end slavery “well before Abraham Lincoln. Well before Civil War.”
He said it “was a direct effort to ensure that southern states never got the population necessary to continue the practice of slavery everywhere else in the country” by limiting the number of representatives slave-owning states had in Congress.

Or, you know, they could have just ended slavery.
Have some dignity.
To RWNJs they're all-in-one: atheist, communist, Muslim sociliasts.
Cause applie pie, church, parenthood, and freedom matter. Something like that.
Who knows?
Many of these idiots think the Nazis were leftists because the group had ‘Socialist’ in their title.
@Carolina Red, this has got to be the red neck wet dream. They get to combine guns and capital punishment. Bonus points if it is a POC.
Ps: what the hell is wrong with your state!

What a snapshot of this country in two consecutive posts.
I got nothin. This timeline keeps getting more and more strange.
There’s absolutely no doubt that everyone who supports this law is ‘pro-life,’ none at all.
No wonder they have come up with this bill, it’s been ten years since they executed someone.
That’s a long, long, long time to edge.
Went down a quick rabbit hole through a name in that article. This is amazing...

This is easily the most surreal line in that article:
Stinney was executed on June 16, 1944, at 7:30 p.m. He was prepared for execution by electric chair, using a Bible as a booster seat because Stinney was too small for the chair.[15]
I could only imagine how many volunteered their family bibles to be the one that propped him up. Imagine the honor that person felt having that bible on the mantel.

They swear the governor in on that Bible ever since.
Wouldn’t doubt it.
They probably keep it hermetically sealed like the Declaration of Independence.
Can’t let such an important time like that book get destroyed by the sands of time.
