[News] Post a D&D Picture

Previous incarnations of Cleveland/P&C/D&D have had an image thread, to handle political cartoons and other image-based stuff that doesn't belong in the general post-a-picture threads.

If any of them spawn an extended discussion, please spawn it off into its own thread. Replies to non-picture replies should take the form of a link pointing to a post on a different discussion thread.

And I shouldn't have to say it, but the images still need to abide by the rules.

Legit questions about maybe the Browns bringing in Johnny Manziel this last week.

But there's nothing political about a proven starter not getting camp invites.

Uh huh.

This is dumb on so many levels. There is an ongoing collusion black-ball suit in the courts as we speak, why on earth would the teams continue to enforce their blackball and essentially concede the case?

No one that follows football believes that. He may not be an elite starter, but he is absolutely better than many of the QBs being signed to back-up or compete for starting jobs with bad teams.

He's a missed pass interference call from a Super Bowl winning QB.

The contextualizing I heard that rang the most true is that for women from certain cultural backgrounds have only ever gotten power that's reflected from the men they're attached to, so are simply continuing in that paradigm, believing that they either can't or shouldn't get any other type of power. I'm not in a great position to say that's definitely what's happening, but it seems likely.

I get that point of view. But why go to college? What a colossal waste of money to just stay at home and "keep sweet."

Because that's the best place to find men that will be able to afford a stay-at home wife.

As I can say from direct observation, it's sometimes a sadly large part of the parents' calculations at the very least.

I mean, at least they're better than the people who are so scared that their daughters will stop listening to them that they don't let them leave the house.

Spoiler:

I mean, they're also dubious about letting their sons out of their sight, but they're really scared that their daughters won't be mothers.

I mean, the children in these circumstances have many individual reactions to the extreme sheltering, so I mostly don't fault them for however they manage to navigate their circumstances. I do blame the parents.

Though there's a further overlap between the overly-shelter enclaves and the people who adopt children (often from Africa or elsewhere) only to murder them when CPS catches up.

It's like a law of Trumpodynamics, for every tweet there is an equal and opposite tweet.

It is a sad comment on reality every time an Onion headline seems more plausible than the rest of the news.

I'll take "Things I Never Thought I'd See" for eleventy billion, Alex.

Cheese chilling with the former director of the FBI. Will wonders never cease.

I'm cheesed that you all know him as Cheese and not Method Man.

Turns out they had a good reason for running into him.

The ideal Trump Twitter response (which we won't get):

"There are now pictures going around the internet of my wife looking happy at a funeral. THANKS OBAMA"

He's saying, "I mean, really, right?" And she's all "I know, right?"

That's pretty much all my friends and I say to each other anymore. You know, right?

Little surprised that "take one for the team" is a Norwegian idiom, too.

A while back I heard a pretty horrifying story about a group of Russian convicts who escaped a Siberian prison camp. To survive the trek across the tundra, they purposely fattened up their already overweight “buddy” so they could eat him along the way.

I have a sneaking suspicion that the Norwegian could be thinking along similar lines.

The progression of his facial hair scares me the second most.

I don't get it. Is it the same person devolving from picture to picture? Even so, I still don't get it.
