And it’s an entirely different meaning for the catholic priests.

I don’t watch Ben videos unless he’s talking about his sister.

She doesn’t even have a bruise.

Wait until this happens to your foreskin.

She seems to have faired pretty well.

You’ve got to laugh when a repost of an eleven year old article has people calling it a ‘best of lemmy.’.

Wearing a cross for jesus is like wearing a little gun in support of JFK.

The reactionary left without irony call Ukrainians nazis while standing in support of Russia.

They support Gaza against Israel but completely shut down any comparisons of Gaza and Ukraine.

I can’t believe the amount of time the right spends painting people as left and the left spends it all painting them as right.

Was this drawn with AI because if it was it would be ironic enough to be hilarious.

The crazy thing is they can read quite well but if they read that article they would get something entirely different out of it.

I wonder if he’s going to turn himself into a sandworm.

Do cardinals have corkscrew dicks like ducks?

Yeah but Harris winning would have least bought us some time it’s too bad she couldn’t stick the landing.

Well one person was pretty darn close to solving the whole issue but they kind of faltered at the last moment.

I’m not sure if it’s accurate or not my point is that Jimmy Carter spoke to Americans like they were adults able to take charge of their destiny and they chose the guy who told them that all their problems were caused by ‘Cadillac-driving welfare queens’ and ‘strapping young bucks buying T-bone steaks with food stamps’.

In my opinion it was this speech over a year before that debate that did him in.

Point one: I am tonight setting a clear goal for the energy policy of the United States. Beginning this moment, this nation will never use more foreign oil than we did in 1977 – never. From now on, every new addition to our demand for energy will be met from our own production and our own conservation. The generation-long growth in our dependence on foreign oil will be stopped dead in its tracks right now and then reversed as we move through the 1980s, for I am tonight setting the further goal of cutting our dependence on foreign oil by one-half by the end of the next decade – a saving of over 4-1/2 million barrels of imported oil per day.

Point two: To ensure that we meet these targets, I will use my presidential authority to set import quotas. I’m announcing tonight that for 1979 and 1980, I will forbid the entry into this country of one drop of foreign oil more than these goals allow. These quotas will ensure a reduction in imports even below the ambitious levels we set at the recent Tokyo summit.

Point three: To give us energy security, I am asking for the most massive peacetime commitment of funds and resources in our nation’s history to develop America’s own alternative sources of fuel – from coal, from oil shale, from plant products for gasohol, from unconventional gas, from the sun.

I propose the creation of an energy security corporation to lead this effort to replace 2-1/2 million barrels of imported oil per day by 1990. The corporation I will issue up to $5 billion in energy bonds, and I especially want them to be in small denominations so that average Americans can invest directly in America’s energy security.

Just as a similar synthetic rubber corporation helped us win World War II, so will we mobilize American determination and ability to win the energy war. Moreover, I will soon submit legislation to Congress calling for the creation of this nation’s first solar bank, which will help us achieve the crucial goal of 20 percent of our energy coming from solar power by the year 2000.

These efforts will cost money, a lot of money, and that is why Congress must enact the windfall profits tax without delay. It will be money well spent. Unlike the billions of dollars that we ship to foreign countries to pay for foreign oil, these funds will be paid by Americans to Americans. These funds will go to fight, not to increase, inflation and unemployment.

Point four: I’m asking Congress to mandate, to require as a matter of law, that our nation’s utility companies cut their massive use of oil by 50 percent within the next decade and switch to other fuels, especially coal, our most abundant energy source.

Point five: To make absolutely certain that nothing stands in the way of achieving these goals, I will urge Congress to create an energy mobilization board which, like the War Production Board in World War II, will have the responsibility and authority to cut through the red tape, the delays, and the endless roadblocks to completing key energy projects.

We will protect our environment. But when this nation critically needs a refinery or a pipeline, we will build it.

Point six: I’m proposing a bold conservation program to involve every state, county, and city and every average American in our energy battle. This effort will permit you to build conservation into your homes and your lives at a cost you can afford.

I ask Congress to give me authority for mandatory conservation and for standby gasoline rationing. To further conserve energy, I’m proposing tonight an extra $10 billion over the next decade to strengthen our public transportation systems. And I’m asking you for your good and for your nation’s security to take no unnecessary trips, to use carpools or public transportation whenever you can, to park your car one extra day per week, to obey the speed limit, and to set your thermostats to save fuel. Every act of energy conservation like this is more than just common sense – I tell you it is an act of patriotism.
