    I didn't listen to it all, but I caught fragments of Trump's speech on the radio before I turned it off and ran some errands. I remember there was the stink of sulphur coming off of him, far worse than his usual shit-flinging.

    We saw it coming years in advance.

    What is trump going to say about this ?

    no way in hell putin is team isreal 

    Putin is team conflict - anything to distract the U.S. and cause division. He buys weapons from Iran and he wants to keep that pipeline alive and kicking. But he really doesn’t give a single flying fuck about who’s right or who’s wrong in the conflict. He only cares about how he can exploit it to further his own ends.

    Most of conservative America has never gotten over the election of Barack Obama. It’s the only thing that explains this obsession with black voter suppression.

    Most of conservative white America has never gotten over the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts. Reagan hated them. They’ve had an obsession with suppressing the black vote since emancipation.

    This is what triggered the snowflakes at Fox News (you can still buy the original, but Mattel released what amounts to a party version).

    https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-68769981

    Here’s the segment, where they get multiple things wrong (games are still scored) because either they are fucking stupid, or they assume their audience is fucking stupid.


    And yeah, they make jokes about whether Stevie Wonder knows if he is blonde or not (not blind, blonde).

    Also, they are support that Mattel banned racial or LBGTQ slurs from the official tournaments.

    They know their audience, that’s for sure.

    Do they complain that it violates the first amendment? That would be on brand.

    Except they keep resisting overtures to find a compromise candidate. Every time. They don’t want to work with the Dems on it. They’re no sane either!

    Most Republicans in the House want to send aide to Ukraine. It’s just Johnson (I.e. Trump) and a handful of extremists blocking it. The thing is that any Republican in the House who cooperates with the Dems and goes against Trump on anything will get primaried and lose their seat. So even if they’re sane and moderate they can’t do anything about it because teaming up with the Dems would be a political death sentence.

    Whatever sick shit you’re into, there’s a cave painting or ancient papyrus scroll depicting it, I guarantee. It’s the human condition.

    I don’t think they had stepsisters stuck in clothes dryers back then.

    This.  This is what will happen.  Lots of people will try to fill his shoes, all will fail spectacularly.  There will be continuing shit as you note.

    It's still shitty, and problematic....but the threat will no longer be existential.

    It will be kind of amusing watching Don Jr. try to fill Trump’s shoes as his successor. He’s every bit as much of a shitty person but with none of the grotesque carnival-barker/snake-oil-salesman charisma that his crooked father possesses.

    It’s annoying to watch her be so willfully ignorant. She’s stupid too.

    I’m not watching that dumb cunt speak.

  9. My god. I was searching for a clip from Frasier, the original Cheers spinoff, and came across this clip from the reboot. Holy crap, it looks even worse than I imagined. Does my necro-bump confirm that the show no longer has any apologists? This looks awful.

    (Although Lilith — still would. Don’t judge.)

    Maybe you just missed a lesson or two because it seems fairly straight forward 

     

    66f3f6eafccb96dc83b48c69a5d66030f81761a5

    Ftr:

    Revelation 13:16-17

    New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

    16 Also, it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be given a brand on the right hand or the forehead, 17 so that no one can buy or sell who does not have the brand, that is, the name of the beast or the number for its name.

    The chapter concludes with verse 18:

    18 This calls for wisdom: let anyone with understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number for a person. Its number is six hundred sixty-six.

    There’s a footnote to that:

    ”Other ancient authorities read six hundred sixteen

    From my office. I had a clear view from my window and had my glasses. We had 95% here and it got dim and spooky for a bit. Was kinda cool.

    Ah. You watched a partial eclipse through your office window. No wonder you didn’t get it. Sorry you missed the totality. It’s a completely different experience. There's no comparison.

    Dont mistake stimulant fueled nighttime rage with "stress.”

    He also geneuinely beleives it's fake news that not everyone loves him. It's all a minority of deep state actors keeping him from power and adoration. I wouldn't try to justify the behavior of a narcissist through the lense of normal humans. Cognitive Dissonance is the most powerful force in the universe. 

    Judge him through the lens of a narcissist whose view of his own importance, strength, ability, intelligence, and capability is utterly divorced from reality. I’m pretty sure he genuinely feels the threat of potential jail time for his (many) crimes.

    I think his narcissism doesn’t allow him to stress. 

    I think his narcissism causes him a lot of stress because most Americans constantly refuse to shower him with the love and praise and adoration and unquestioned admiration he thinks he deserves. Look at how the North Koreans (that he sees) treat Kim Jong Un. He genuinely believes that’s how Americans should see him. It drives him crazy that most of us don’t.
