  1. The evergreen GIF, applying to rich and poor, smart and dumb alike....really, to anyone and everyone who thinks they will ultimately come out better off for having entangled themselves with Trump:
  2. "pipe cleaning tool":
  3. They aren't "suggesting" it. They are out-and-out saying it, repeatedly: attorneys who represent ANYONE acting contrary to the interests of the Regime will and must suffer harsh retribution (see the Exec Orders against multiple firms). It's every fever dream the GQP IMAGINED about the Biden admin....turned into full reality.
  4. How is the space for the truck nuts?
  5. The admin also appeals to pointless bravado and chest-puffing....which has real cultural appeal. Even when it's utterly stupid and counterproductive. Maybe ESPECIALLY when it is. "Macho" is a thing, and it's rarely a smart thing.
  6. A beige truck? With those wheels? I mean, putting a bumper sticker on there that says "PLEASE DO NOT HAVE SEX WITH ME" seems redundant, but if you wanna be super-sure, go for it.
  7. It's Spain. They'll get to it . . . . mañana.
  8. Because there are only two political veins in this country: bullies, and cowards. The GQP has taken full ownership of the "bully" contingent. And not to be outdone, the Dems have gone all-in on "coward."
  9. The machinery of fascism always, and must, include corporatist allies. The Regime necessarily includes those elements. Remember all the "Free Speech ABSOLUTISTS!" we had around here pre-election? Notice how not a single one of them has any issue with the Regime taking dead aim and anyone and everyone who dares utter a peep contrary to the desires of the Regime? Huh. Guess their internet is broken or something.
  10. Word out there that ICE is actively nabbing people, including members of a construction crew stopped at a gas station, in the Rundberg and Braker area.
  11. Stay behind and be utterly fucked. As is always the case. If there's one constant you can count on in America, it's that black people will be shat upon by the dominant faction of society. That tradition is more American than baseball and apple pie.
  12. It's pure idiocy. DEI efforts with respect to anything related to hiring are literally - as in, by definition - nothing more than ensuring that candidates OF MERIT who might otherwise be missed because they aren't in the traditional connections pool get consideration/visibility. That is, instead of just considering candidates from your alma mater, or related to people at your country club, you also look at candidates from outside those circles (who, based on the circles of people traditionally calling the shots, will often be from minority communities). That's it. No obligation to hire a shitty candidate because of race. And it's been turned on its head. In Trumpland, the only way to truly avoid DEI is to NOT consider or hire anyone outside of your inner circle. Merit be damned.
  13. But remember....we got rid of DEI (which is a concept these morons don't grasp on even the most elementary level) for "MERIT-BASED HIRING ONLY!" It's just that "merit" means "loyal to the Regime." That's it. That's the sole criterion. You can be a badger-raping drooling idiot with an IQ of 50 and zero experience in the field, but so long as you'll suck orange dick and gargle the gravy, you're a "MERIT-BASED HIRE." Dumbest. Fucking. Timeline.
  14. Yeah....old Winston may have been too optimistic. It may need to be tweaked to "you can always count on Americans to do something shitty, because Americans are shitty."
  15. Fuck your castle. Fuck your citizenship. Fuck your rights. Fuck your freedom. Fuck you. Those are the core values of the Regime. You best not fucking forget it. The Gestapo is here, and there's no going back.
  16. We’re being governed by the people everyone fucking loathed - correctly - in high school. They’re fucking losers who have one thing: money. They have nothing else. They are truly bankrupt of every other quality or attribute a human could have.
  17. None of the “anti-authoritarian libertarian” types are actually against an authoritarian government. They only have a problem with a hypothetical authoritarian government that acts against “real Americans” (good conservative white folks). That government can crush as many minorities and liberals as it wants, and they won’t have a single problem with it. “I’m a libertarian” may be the biggest political lie of the last 50 years. I haven’t seen a one who has the slightest concern about a right wing authoritarian government.
  18. Yeah, I’m truly unsure. It’s been 5 years since I’ve flown out of Canada, but even though we clear customs there, I thought duty free was outside of that. But my memory could surely be wrong,
  19. Seen by a friend departing out of Calgary: Good. Fuck us.
  20. Then cause as many casualties as you can on the way down. The bonus is that "the only possible strategy that has a chance of winning an election" and "a strategy for destroying American society and the Republic" are pretty much the same thing. "The only winning move is not to play." But....we're playing, and we have no fucking choice in the matter.
  21. No, I don't think that. I know it. Gee, ya fucking think? The only way to convince people to do anything politically is to feed the rage machine/amygdala, preferably with a torrent of inflammatory lies that don't even need to have the air of truth about them. Truth, reason, and logic, are poison, and nothing but loser-juice. Pour them out and be done with them, they have ZERO place in American political action.
  22. True fact. Tomato Europe, generally not operating as smoothly as potato Europe. Generally better grub, though.
  23. They are 100% necessary. Reality is not inflammatory enough. We are not communicating with people's logic and reason centers. Those parts of the human brain were destroyed by a quirk of evolution over the last few decades. We are communicating solely with the amygdala, and those things light up like a goddamned Christmas tree at lies -- the more outrageous, the better.
  24. This. We need 100,000 TikToks about how Trump betrayed everyone by stealing $500 billion from the treasury to buy a private child sex island, and how Trump has personally stolen $5000 from each person's SS account. Lie. Lie a lot. But make them direct, targeted, outrageous, infuriating lies. Learn from your fucking enemy.
  25. I mean, I've made a hard turn/evasive action that made me spill my coffee in the car. So, same-same, really.
