Rules:

  1. The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
  2. Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
  3. If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
  4. Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
  5. For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
  6. Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
  7. This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
  8. All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

It's a bold move cotton, let's see if someone loses another ear.

In the words of based Kyle Gass, “Next time, don’t miss.”

It was a great sorrow that Jack black of all people would oppose that line. Some times a rebel lives long enough to become the system.

Jack black killed the metal.

[–] X@piefed.world 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Instantly angered me that Jack did that, lost all respect for him.

You mean publicly showing a 'friend' he was actually an employee that was hurting the brand?

[–] BartyDeCanter@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Huh, what? I’m out of the loop. What did Jack Black do?

He split Tenacious D citing that remark as a capstone for he and Gass growing apart.

[–] hesh@quokk.au 6 points 2 months ago

He didnt split Tenacious D. He canceled the rest of the tour they were on.

He was awesome before that, he's an occasionally entertaining clown I don't make any special effort to watch now.

Worked for them against the Black Panthers in CA back in the 1960s with Governor Reagan. The NRA backed it.

That's where the CA gun control stuff really started.

Seriously, it shocked me how many people don’t know that saga.

And why I consider most forms of gun control just racism dressed up for social benefit. Not saying all, but there are states that make it so hard to purchase a gun that's steeped in racism of the past. Before any neo-lib comes in trying to pearl clutch, my rebuttal is "Fuck off."

But for real this time, not a ketchup packet and magically regenerating geriatric cartilage.
