We said “Thoughts and Prayers” that’s obviously enough.

In that context it sounds like they are using the word “sadly” in place of a word like “unfortunately”.

“unfortunately, i’m referring to you.”

“Unfortunately, i think you should suffer and realize what an annoying piece of shit you are.”

Now, as to why it’s sad or unfortunate, I’m not sure. It could be that the person saying “sadly” likes the other person but is upset with them in the moment, or the person saying “sadly” could be trying to soften the blow of a mean comment like the one you used in the example, or they could be saying it’s sad/unfortunate for the person they are talking to.

Just my two cents.

Did we need a new slang term for “boofing”? I guess so.

If you’re talking politically, then I agree 100%, like you said, we’ve done terrible shit in this country from before day one.

If I’m thinking literally though, 250 years have passed, including the start of Industrial Revolution. They would have no idea what anything was or what was going on, just like what would happen if someone today was transported that far in the future. That’s why I always think this argument is stupid.

“The worry is they’ll pull you over when you’re driving and ask for your papers,” said Lidia

Your papers, please (or “papers, please”) is an expression or trope associated with police state functionaries demanding identification from civilians during random stops or at checkpoints. It is a cultural metaphor for life in a police state.

The quickest and easiest version I have for fact checking is to check the source of the story, usually that’s in article. Check the ownership of the company, who owns it and what’s their agenda, that usually leads to who is their audience, who are they writing for and why. Is it to sell ads or actually pass on info. Also, if some thing is too goo to be true, it usually is but do the fact checking to confirm.

This is exactly why we need to free Hat McCullogh. Yes, he killed 23 babies but everyone knows it was self defense.

Don’t forget investment in public transit like cable cars in that first panel.
