  1. But... Gritty told me there would be severe consequences.
  2. The legitimacy of the judiciary is on trial as much as Trump is. He is not just undermining confidence in the judiciary among his base who buy into the witch hunt narrative. He’s undermining confidence in the judiciary in everyone else that witnesses it’s impotence when confronted with Donald Trump. He is really the perfect chaos agent.
  3. Just in case, we don't really feel the same way.
  4. What’s the point of having fuck you money if you can’t collectively make the decent people in the world say, “FUCK YOU!”
  5. Alternatively, you could move out of Texbezikstan.
  6. SurlyNet scares me more than SkyNet.
  7. o/~ The hills are alive with the sound of music freedom sexual assault. MAGA?
  8. It’s a mash up of those read your own adventure books and “The Da Vinci Code” that sucks people in and spits em out way down the fucking rabbit hole. To take the red pill and start doing your own research, turn to page 5 To take the blue pill and stay sane, close the fucking book and burn it
  9. Is it me or do all of these once normal people who take the red pill eventually mutate into Sloth from Goonies?
  10. Donald Trump strong-arming Boeing to cut the cost of Presidential jets is the apex of American capitalism. And by apex, I mean…
  11. I don't think you are wrong at all. Some things I have seen people struggling with since the onset of covid (age immaterial): Why the fuck do I need to take a shower today? Why the fuck do I need to brush my teeth today? Why the fuck do I need to put on clean clothes today? Why the fuck do I need to go to school/work/whatever today? Why the fuck do I even need to get out of bed today? Why the fuck am I doing anything when life is just a finite state machine of eat, shit, work, eat, work, eat, fuck around, sleep, repeat N times until you die?
  12. Yeah, I see a lot more general workplace apathy from the onset of covid on. Great resignation, quiet quitting, etc...
  13. If the internet had existed and been as available as it is today, I'd have stayed at home and done plenty of health/sex ed research.
  14. Vote accordingly and help others weigh their political options.
  15. As long as we are helping the Ukraine, we are doing shit to harm Putin and Russia. We've got a good old fashioned proxy war going on, and I love it. Reason #1238918123 to vote for Biden/not vote for Trump.
  16. Today's generation of students are simply apt pupils. Many of the adults around them view public schools as fatally flawed guvment bullshit Those adults elect other adults who view public schools similarly Those elected officials hire other adults to administer schools from a pool of people who view public schools similarly Those administrators ensure the school lives up to their expectation of being fatally flawed guvment bullshit How are kids supposed to take school seriously when the adults around them don't?
  17. From a voter perspective, I think Trump has some people that always will vote R like you describe, but I think he's also galvanized a loose confederation of people unhappy with the way things are or the way they are going. These voters are the citizens of rural areas clinging to a dying way of life. The small business owner who is struggling to make it against the Walmarts and Amazons. The Christian who views any abortion as murder. The dumbfuck fan of wrasslin' who never voted before 2016 until he was labeled a deplorable. The conservative parent appalled when their kid comes home from school one day and says I'm gay. And yeah, the wealthy who want their tax cuts above all else as wells as the hardcore racists who want to see white power preserved, white nationalists who want to see immigrants shot, incels who think women exist to serve their man, etc... He has managed to get all those disparate and seemingly incompatible people to act together politically. But they are not natural allies. They are allies of desperation united behind a fucking moron awful human being. I won't call him a moron, because he undeniably has a gift for spearheading a populist movement that should not be underestimated. I think the biggest failing of Trump's opposition to date is that they have not found a way to drive wedges between those disparate groups of unnatural allies.
  18. So much better than fucking kpop
  19. Your post is off topic and bereft of entertainment value or insight. The only remarkable thing about it is that you have managed to craft something that is a more catastrophic failure than the Boeing 737 max.
