Mmmmm, barium bromide.
The hypocrisy is unreal. I have been successfully holding onto my final shred of hope in the goodness of humankind, but this tips the scale. I give up. Now I only have despair in the badness of humunkind. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to drown my sorrow by bingeing on Napster, Scour, BitTorrent, newsgroups, and Gnutella.
Maybe there’s a discount if they sign a loyalty oath or barter with the scalps of ‘dangerous unhinged Marxist lefstists’?
I’ve seen Rapture. Would not recommend.
As an aside, why can’t any of his stupid I-fucking-hate-this-future ideas be something that’s actually kinda cool, if not also just as dangerous? Like a space elevator or a hole to access a near-infinite supply of magma to generate power, or dropping a nuke into the eye of a hurric- wait, scratch that last one. He already suggested it, but, like always, failed to follow through.
Chicken shit on chicken meat definitely does add some zing to the flavor profile. Maybe the USDA is just feeling out its more epicurian tendencies?
Sounds like a ticking time bomb 😬
COUGH-Applebee’s-COUGH
I feel like eclipsing the rule of law by declaring martial law will just beget more violence. But I guess they want that, too, as the apocalypse accelerationists they are. Boy will they be embarrassed when everyone’s either dead, dying, or covered in blood and the rapture still doesn’t happen.
Someday in the medium-far future, after all the nurembergish trials and hangalangs feel like a distant memory, some producer and streaming service will reboot the West Wing, only it’ll be the Trump West Wing and those future people will get to watch the unbridled escapades and think that’s kinda just the normal way politics happened for us primitive morons.
Ha! Who am I kidding? Rampant accelerated climate change will ensure nothing of the sort ever happens. “Future people,” what a concept!
So I’ve been scratching my head so long as I ponder how an unofficial digital currency officially named after and endorsed by the sitting president, an elected official officially bound to ethical legal standards, is somehow a thing that’s still happening out in the open, unchallenged, that I’ve finally reached the arachnoid mater and am on the cusp of accessing my grey matter within the month.
Because they love Jesus as much, maybe more, than I do! And they told me Jesus loves them, and me, too! And they said other things that confirmed my biases and it made me feel good about my anger! And then they said abortion is evil and that’s what my church man said Jesus said and then Jesus looked at me! I hate immigrants!
Perhaps broadly classifying people as terrorists will embolden them to live up to the label accordingly.
I mean, if they can expect to be treated like a terrorist, they might as well act like it if the repercussions for not acting like it are the same.
How far down the ‘thou art a terrorist’ slippery slope are people who peaceably protest Tesla and Trump, endorse non-conservative candidates, choose not to go to church or go to the ‘wrong’ church, or post counter-conservative content online?
“They’re paid for”
Bro, if people hate you and your company enough to employ and pay others to protest, then you and your company must be an all new level of shitty. I’m not quite sure the claim/excuse you’re making is the defensive shield you think it is. It sounds much more like an admission of total failure…
And yet the board still thinks it’s a good idea to retain you? I guess it’s heartwarming they’re more loyal to you than they are to the company.
Now that right there is some Buddahriffic wisdom. As someone who has destroyed a keyboard in frustrated anguish, I can say the satisfaction was dismally ephemeral and every time I found a loose key for months afterward, I felt ashamed of my impulsive and violent behavior.
Although, in the exact moment in which the keyboard exploded into shrapnel, the satisfaction was intense, although I think the novelty of the situation and the personal distraction it caused were the real source of the delight. When I turned back to my sorely inadequate and poorly behaved workstation, the feelings of frustration quickly flooded back, only worse now that I needed to find a new keyboard…and waste time cleaning up the old one.
I saw this movie! Are those damn immigrants, teachers, poors, and that one guy who served time for causing the Global Financial Crisis back at their old tricks?
I hope tathtub Margot will be in the sequel, too!
I could go for another PWA, WPA, and CCC. I’d love to join the CCC in two years when I become free again.
Maybe you’ll even get a chance to help hold hogs accountable for their actions!
