friend, this is Marcus Junius Brutus
CAESAR has declared himself DICTATOR FOR LIFE and MUST BE STOPPED
can you rush a donation of ten denarii today to show that you STAND WITH THE REPUBLIC?
it says a lot about us, none of it good, that we chose a leader with not a single redeeming quality: stupid? yup. corrupt? absolutely. dishonest? to his core. violent? maybe the most violent ever. any ability to empathize with people? none. baseline level of regard for human life? not even a skosh.
Tired: white-washing fascism
Inspired: sequin-washing fascism
Gotta keep that insane completion percentage up somehow!
Great question. I wish I knew. It’s one of the struggles of a political climate that favors unchecked capitalism and shareholder profits over any responsibility to society as a whole.
I think that most, if not all, Ace hardwares are independently owned, so I guess it depends on where you live. Not sure about the overall corporation though.
Lowe’s isn’t really any better, just less media coverage around the anti-DEI and ICE raids at their stores. They also donated more to Trumps campaign than Home Depot

It feels like racism for liberals is seen like an edgy / unfortunate opinion. Especially when it comes to the media and literary world. It might have been Malcolm Harris who said that bigotry is disqualifying on a foundational level, which I agreed with. I can’t take the person seriously after.
They don’t actually give a shit about the American people any more than the GOP, they just hide it better most of the time.
We need to keep voting every one of these spineless fucks out every chance we get.
Whining about crime is super effective for right wing politicians because there's never going to be zero crime, so it's a good way to constantly sell total bullshit to the two dumbest groups of people in the world: republican voters and the entire media
But what was the movie called?!
As end-of-empire scenarios go it is so much more dignified to get your capital city sacked by the Visigoths than to have a bunch of illiterate rich people in their 70s doing it through a series of incomprehensible tantrums because their brains were defeated by their phones.
Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.
dude this party is such an echo chamber. it's just friends hanging out and chilling and having a good time. you need to invite some people over who want to kill you with hammers
Imagine spending your whole life cos-playing and fantasizing about fighting the federal government sending troops in against its own citizens only to root for the government when the moment finally arrives
I’d 100% rather live near a nuclear plant than a coal or natural gas plant. The worst part is the water demands for cooling, but thorium/molten salt reactors reduce that, as well as significantly reducing the amount of danger from spent fuel or a plant failure.
In my 47 years on this planet I have never been scolded for being a man.
If you could be driven to Rogan, Peterson, or Tate it is a safe bet that you are not being scolded for being a man, you are being scolded for being an asshole.
"It’s disgusting and, frankly, counterproductive to point out that I voted for this. To imply that I had personal free will and agency when I walked into a voting booth and picked Mayor Bomberman is insulting."
Apologies to the fine people of Philadelphia. You were keeping us safe and we mocked you.
He knows what you said about American hero Sully Sullenberger
Oh no, @latrointhemist.bsky.social, Tom Hanks is onto you.
the failure to drive these freaks from political and really all social life in this country is a failure so profound it should be the only line in the obituary of everyone even remotely responsible, including but not limited to dem leaders. instead they remain unanimous picks to lead their caucuses
