I...feel like adolescent me would have noticed and remembered if this arc had made it through the BBC-PBS filter around that time.

Ya think maybe the problem might be bigger than just schools and houses of worship, though?

We're mad about the fact it was launched and why. The treason and stupidity in the execution necessarily followed from that. And one must acknowledge that his real mission objective, the obliteration of America's entire moral and strategic position in the world, is well-served by the incompetence.

Trump is a fucking narcissist, and has put us all in danger.

The very personification of my lifelong loathing of redneck dumbfuck gym teachers.

I wonder how many of them go to work every day suspecting eventually they will be the initial witnesses to the breakout AI xenocidal apocalypse.

But hey, at least someone's watching and surely a free-market solution to early warning and brakes will emerge. We should ask the AI's to work on that.

Because when you have a cartoonishly extreme case of Narcissistic Personality Disorder, you emotionally experience even the slightest correction the way normal people experience the discovery of infidelity.

My recommendation is that your fire whoever suggested you end this post with a lazy mediocre Democratic comms consultant Pokkitbook and Kitchen Tablz platitude.

Because yeah, people on Bluesky really need to have it reduced to "How Does This Affect Me?" to care about this.

Generation tl;dr.

if i were running dem party comms, all our people would today be talking about the president having a dance party while our soldiers are being shot at while gas prices go through the roof

I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment.

Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that don’t fit because they’re scared to take them off.

The 25th is never happening.

Remember that time the the lefties were backfilling their refusal to vote for Hillary by going nuts over the Trans-Pacific Partnership Treaty?

And FFS, can't Steyer just be satisfied with buying politicians like the rest of them do.

Okay, Pritzker, but that's a whole different situation.

Yeah, take it to New England, morons. See how your fascist shit goes over in the cradle of the Revolution, you Klan trash fucks.

My periodic reminder that America has a number of perfectly serviceable active volcanoes on federal land.

Man, you can just feel the carefree exuberance and thrilled anticipation of the audience right through the screen.

at least once every night when I am done with work and everyone is fed and I start to dig into the news, I lean back in my chair and look at the ceiling and sigh and close my eyes and think "I simply can not wait until this motherfucker dies."

I have no reason to believe either of them has ever read an entire book.

With the possible exception of the ghostwritten Trump bio, of course.

Who could possibly have foreseen that oligarchists lurvs them some war and murder? If only we'd have some way of knowing.

When you're launching a war to feed the twisted needs of a physically and mentally declining malignant narcissist whose psyche is unravelling under rising domestic legal and political threat, I think the lives of the "enemy" civilians being killed merit a mention, both morally and politically.

I think that is highly likely. But I also think attributing meaning and intentionality to the noises that emanate from the plumbing vent stack he uses as a mouth is a fool's errand which we should just go ahead and describe with the denominal verb "to politico."

You used the adjectives "objectively," "quantifiably" and "definitively" to describe personal opinions and subjective impressions. You don't seem to understand why that's a problem nor know how to address it. I might as well be talking to someone mocking me for not believing in witches. Goodbye.

Objectively. Quantifiably. Definitively. I see.

Do you have any citations to share with us? A data set to explore? A measure of right-wingness that exists independent from subjective impression or arbitrary operationalization?

Or do you just think those words mean "muh feels?"

I’m sure you think that’s what you’re doing.

With all these options remaining, why does the fate of thousands of criminal prosecutions in this District potentially rest on the legitimacy of an unprecedented and byzantine leadership structure? The Government tells us: the President doesn’t like that he cannot simply appoint whomever he wants. Notwithstanding the chaos that pervades criminal prosecutions in this District, and without regard to the possibility that scores of dangerous criminals could have their cases dismissed or convictions eventually reversed, “the [E]xecutive branch, at least right now, is not prepared to . . . use [the legal] options.” U.S. v. Naviwala, Memorandum Opinion, Case 2:24-CR-00099-MWB, (D.N.J. March 9, 2025). Holy crap, my Bluebook skills are atrophying.

You have no idea how ridiculous saying she ran a "right wing campaign" makes you sound to the vast majority of the public who aren't on your competitive leftist platitude team, do you?

Everyone knew there was no way to get rid of him until 2028 when they voted for him. Ditto those who voted third party or no-voted.

Who could possibly have foreseen it?

This warmongering little pervert must be going through lube and Kleenex by the pallet now.
