    Oh the Hunter gun felony cheerleaders about to be tied into knots.  

    This timeline is fucking bonkers. Bozo the clown, teletubby sun baby acid trip of a timeline. And it's not just this thing, which is minor and silly in it's own juxtaposition within the constellation of abject absurdity we are bombarded with. But wholly fuck, it just hit me how fucking bizarre the reality we live within has become.

    Just got back. Thanks for all the recommendations 

    We did pretty much everything except Isle of Skye and St Andrew’s. Glencoe is one of the more beautiful places on earth. The entire country is pretty, warm, and welcoming. And they love a wee dram, which is nice. Loch Lomond and Loch Ness were both beautiful but the drive to Loch Ness was a bitch. I liked Stirling Castle the best as far as tourist sites. We even fit in the Royal Britannia (per demand from the women). 

    Definitely don’t skip Edinburgh Castle. Great views of the city. 

    National museums are free too. 
     

    Now off to plan the next trip. 

    Dude, Isle of Skye was the highlight of our Scottish trip. Even more beautiful than Glencoe. You need to go back.

    Oh, also, it’s not stupid when you realize that our market design is not designed to accomplish the goal of delivering electricity to consumers. It is designed to transfer the maximum amount of dollars from those consumers to generators (donors). Electricity is just the vehicle to accomplish that goal.

    What do you have against fetishized unchecked capitalism?

    Kim Jong-un, the leader of North Korea, plans to travel to Russia this month to meet with President Vladimir V. Putin to discuss the possibility of supplying Russia with more weaponry for its war in Ukraine and other military cooperation, according to American and allied officials.

    In a rare foray from his country, Mr. Kim would travel from Pyongyang, North Korea’s capital, probably by armored train, to Vladivostok, on the Pacific Coast of Russia, where he would meet with Mr. Putin, the officials said. Mr. Kim could possibly go to Moscow, though that is not certain.

    Mr. Putin wants Mr. Kim to agree to send Russia artillery shells and antitank missiles, and Mr. Kim would like Russia to provide North Korea with advanced technology for satellites and nuclear-powered submarines, the officials said. Mr. Kim is also seeking food aid for his impoverished nation.

    Both leaders would be on the campus of Far Eastern Federal University in Vladivostok to attend the Eastern Economic Forum, which is scheduled to run Sept. 10 to 13, according to the officials. Mr. Kim also plans to visit Pier 33, where naval ships from Russia’s Pacific fleet dock, they said. North Korea celebrates the anniversary of its founding on Sept. 9.

    Heh

    This is @fattyflattie’s party and what he stands for—Black people being killed because of their race. 

    Epitomizes the "fuck you, I got mine" culture that is totally on brand for their form of patriotism.
