When I saw my first textbook that had an XKCD comic in it I had A little bit of a squeal of joy. I’m old What do I know.

“Holmgard and beyond! That’s where the winds will us guide!!”

There was a pretty great episode of Stargate that explained why offering a defensive technology like that is still offensive support.

In that circumstance we (earth) were literally just powering a shield and the good guys decided to stop supplying the fuel to power that shield because it turns out it was being used to defend the aggressive Nazi-like-analogs that were actually the instigators of the conflict.

Kahn is the real deal. I hope Harris keeps her and gives her anything she asks for.

Lina Kahn could be the trust buster we need to get America’s shit together and maybe reign in some of these big businesses that seem to be completely above the law.

Is she from the Maxx? It was an animated show on MTV a long time ago. Her name is Sarah and there’s a whole part where she gets a gun to defend herself but she always comes across as a little bit deranged.

It shows that there’s a diverse party of people that are trying to lead America into the future and a party that only has a plan to rule America into the ground.

Obviously Republicans that aren’t willing to sell out their country for a chance to kiss the ring are looking for some way to distinguish themselves from their treasonous brethren.

If you don’t like paying for the mistakes of law enforcement, legislate punishment on law enforcement that makes mistakes!

When it’s a judge you have to vote them out (usually), and since they were voted in you have to punish the taxpayer for making such a boneheaded mistake.

It’s a taxpayer votes in this chuckle fucker again and maybe we need to punish them that much harder.

The government has the money to spare otherwise they would stop fucking up so goddamn always.

The problem with this kind of sarcasm is how many people mean it sincerely makes the sarcasm seem at least potentially not sarcastic.

Good?

Smaller businesses have better wages and hire more people. Smaller businesses are more nimble, flexible, and they’re never too big to fail. Smaller businesses, mean more options, more ideas, and variety is good for the marketplace, consumer, and the country as a whole.

Less consolidation is good! Competition is good!

See that’s just it I don’t think this picture shows that he was stupid as a kid I think it shows that he’s unwilling to grant the freedom of self-expression and self-discovery that he went through to kids today.

It’s not his participation in this picture that is damning in any way, It’s who he is now that damns him.

The kid in this picture was doing normal kid shit, I can’t even figure out why someone might be offended by it but I know a Republican WOULD immediately reach for their pearlsif they saw this picture thinking it was taken recently. They would call it wokeness, and attribute it to the deep state.

It’s even worse than that

If you were chatting with them and you used the proper name “Affordable Care Act” or ACA to describe Obamacare they would immediately think it is a dog whistle for communism and that it was just a way for liberals to rebrand Obamacare. Their entire universe is backwards, inside out, and upside down.

…and he only got that job because of how hard up for cash he was after somehow managing to lose money on a casino.

In the world of business Donald Trump is boldly pioneering the frontier of incompetence.

Lots of people are saying it. Everyday someone comes to me to say Donald Trump is an amazing loser of money. Big strong men come to me in tears saying No one can lose money quite as confidently as Trump, (with the possible exceptions of Cathie Woods and Elon Musk).

You don’t give him enough credit.

He didn’t just lose it all, until the presidential graft, he had lost a couple orders of magnitude more money than the substantial fortune he inherited.

They don’t see it that way. This is another “black helicopter” thing where they just assume it’s part of the CommieLib-MkUltra-Deepstate and that every piece of evidence that runs contrary to that narrative is so obviously manufactured by Nancy Pelosi using a 3D printed, Jewish-space-neuralizer organized by AOC to delete her feet pictures off the internet.

It’s clearly just aconspiracy to ruin the lives of the UberMerican loud minority of manly lifted truck driving estranged fathers wearing Izod Sport jackets with iron-on bald eagles and American flags.

If he were a real Republican® Christian© American™, he wouldn’t have done a violence, but if he had, his aim would have been true, and and he would have gotten away.

Stupid is a stupid does, and smart is just the ability to efficiently accomplish your objectives with the resources available to you.

I would argue that Trump is smart in that he has managed to, with limited intellectual, strategic, or character resources pull off one of the largest con jobs in American history.

He doesn’t want to do good for America, he wants to do good for himself and has achieved heretofore not possible levels of graft and extortion and all of this without facing any real consequences himself.

He’s not a good man, He’s not an intelligent man, but he is a smart monster. He not an imbecile, he’s not witless, but he is a stupid business man.

Trump proves that you can be stupid and smart at the same time because they can apply to different qualities of a person.

He is undeniably a bad American.

Good riddance

I thought this was a post mocking Tate’s tuck job ‘mankini’ picture at first.

You are awesome.

Lemmy is better for you being here. Thanks for the reading material!

I’m just going to assume those 4 dollar words are real and you aren’t just misspelling normal words to fuck with us.

Non surjective free magma? What about the doblastic amortized basalt?

We are lucky we got Tim Walz instead of Newsom. Tim really cares about outcomes but Gavin is all about appearances.
