  1. I mean, you're not very far off at this point. Ya know, ignoring the fascists taking over your government probably isn't the best course of action. That's like not going to the doctor so you never have to face your cancer diagnosis.
  2. if anyone is following along on the Star Trek timeline things are a little out of order, the Bell Riots are a little behind schedule and we're way behind for the Eugenics Wars, but I'll be goddamned if we aren't checking the boxes. @atomheartbevo knows what I'm talking about
  3. So kind of wild catch (from this reddit post) between last week's episode and a visit to the Eternity Wing.... They're dressing Gemma as different Eagan women in the different rooms I have a guess as to who might be represented in "Cold Harbor"
  4. hmmmmm, it's almost like he's trying to induce an economic crisis so that he can more effectively consolodate power. Every fascist takeover needs a good economic crunch to really motivate the populism, and thank goodness for American ingenuity, he made his own!
  5. Well most of them do, it's just that it's scooped up by the crypto oligarchs
  6. I don't think so - but the university is actively suppressing one form of speech while welcoming its opposite. That is not freedom of speech either. Crackpots always come to campus - there's a wealth of young brilliant minds to evangelize to your cause. But the people putting on this conference are no kidding, mask-off eugenicists. Jordan Lasker describes himself as a "scientific racist" (quoted from the linked Guardian article). Why is he welcomed to campus to say that one race is superior to another, while any mention of diversity and equality is banned from campus?
  7. Genuinely, I think much of his insane, erratic, and uncoordinated behavior is an artifact of his ketamine abuse
  8. Moving my reply to the appropriate thread.... What the hell are you talking about? Do a surlysearch for "trump derangement syndrome" and find the multitudes of MAGAS that call surly home slinging it to rebut every (now validated) fear. And the right may not be singular in thought, but it is absolutely singular in voice. Once the popular narrative is out, it is blasting across every frequency, platform, blog, channel, and propagandist. The republicans MADE trans rights a voting issue when the democrats weren't campaigning on it. They did it through having a singular voice of thought. You and I seem to be living in very different realities.
  9. Not sure if anyone else clicked through, but uhhhh what the fuck that's on University of Texas campus at the AT&T center. Between UT over-complying with SB17, and now welcoming eugenicists onto campus.... Jesus fucking christ. Banning discussions of race and equity, while hosting racial pseudoscience. What starts here changes the world.
  10. HISD Superintendent is a fraud https://www.texasobserver.org/mike-miles-third-future-schools-midland-classes/
  11. In the past when we brought up "vryano" and other russian disinformation techniques there was a derogatory "derangement syndrome" that would be hurled as an insult. Now who's laughing? The fucking russians are. It's shocking how readily so much of our citizenry is accepting straight up bullshit as truth, simply because "I don't pay attention to politics" or "the news is all lying anyways". Putin's firehose of falsehoods has been extremely effective when wrapped up in and kissing an American flag
  12. Someone made good money insider trading on that info. https://cointelegraph.com/news/trader-banks-nearly-7-million-from-trumps-crypto-reserve-announcement
  13. Glad that comeuppance still happens for shitbags.
  14. Oh actually, I know why this woman is being held for nearly a month for no goddamn reason. Otay Mesa detention center where she now is being held is a privately owned, for-profit ICE facility https://www.corecivic.com/facilities/otay-mesa-detention-center Silly me, the cruelty is for profit! That makes much more sense now.
  15. lmfao Stephanie R Lovins is about to get a world of shit if that goes wide on the internet. What a dumb cunt. Can't even scribble her name off of both receipts.
  16. Not deportation (yet), but dominance and cruelty to be sure https://www.kpbs.org/news/border-immigration/2025/02/28/german-tourist-held-indefinitely-in-san-diego-area-immigrant-detention-facility ICE and CBP are starting to dissapear non-citizens into their custody for weeks at a time. Seemingly just because they can. This poor woman is STILL in custody of ICE, who has been held more than two weeks past her return flight home to Berlin.
  17. This is the ultiamte expression of "fuck you I got mine". Any sort of empathy or social awareness is scorned, and they laser-focus on their grievances over reality.
  18. It wasn't discomfort about laughing. His monologue was just was missing jokes and humor. There were some great sketches though, really hot and cold episode imo

    Another aspect of the cruelty and inhumanity towards trans people: the prison systems are starting moves towards force transwomen into mens prisons. They're taking away their chest bindings for transmen and forcing them to dress femininely. At this point, medical care is still happening, but this is how it starts. This guy Deviant Ollam is a security researcher, pen tester, and a redteamer for physical and digital security. He's up to date on the goings-on of the prison system.
  20. my MIL that's a CPA and executive for a F500 nearly fell for this shit over the weekend. She's fallen for 4-figure scams on facebook before too. I really don't understand what it is about facebook that makes boomers just turn their fucking brains off. It's like, if one of their friends posts it then they just turn off their critical thinking and okeydoke whatever the fuck is being repeated over and over. It's exactly how we got into this mess.
  21. That is a fantastic catch, wow nice. Yeah I'm starting to raise my eyebrow at Devon and Ricken being unwitting pawns of Lumon, ala Ms Selvig fuckery Also listening to the production podcast they confirmed that Gemma is getting severed into different innies. So it's not Miss Casey with the dentist or writing Christmas thank you, but a different innie for each room
  22. This is like saying this isn't the game thread isn't for talking about recruiting kickers after Burt fucked us lol
  23. It's almost like he keeps doing this, and then parlaying the resulting mess into yet another power play. He torpedoed a massive immigration reform bill just so he could campaign against it. AND IT FUCKING WORKED!
  24. inb4 blacklab nukes this thread for being """CR"""
