When the establishment is demonstrably shit, chancers who offer change will always have the opportunity to make gains.
No matter how awful said chancers are, they're a change, and some people will vote for that change.
Them being fascist scum who will make everything worse is not the point.
A system in which making credible (or, indeed, proven!) accusations of lying is somehow more offensive than act of lying itself is a failed system.
I am strongly of the opinion that, if you're going to go into a job where you're expected to tie a tie every day, the least you can do is learn how to get a pratt knot or something down.
The Infowars news is funny, yes. But more importantly, it is an outright rebuke of Alex Jones' evil.
It's testament to the strength and resilience of the Sandy Hook families who survived this bullshit for more than a decade as well as the Onion, which didn't give up on this for the last 18 months.
I'm not sure if it's just having done chemistry instead of history or politics, but I honestly can't remember ever having encountered anything shocking and/or offensive? At least not as part of the coursework.
Now the number of bloody Tories I met while I was at St. Andrews, THAT was shocking.
No transphobe has ever been a good person. No transphobe is ever fit to serve in a caretaking, medical, or teaching role.
Pete Hegseth doesn't want dominion by Christians. He wants dominion by the right (and white) sort of Christians.
Trump's trial and imprisonment is the last chance at redemption for the United States.
Venus Bluegenes, at a guess?
They move them around every time someone finds one.
(I'm not sure if it's just the one still, or if they rotate them out.)

Do not consult Jhiaxus for your HRT. It will not go well.
Frankly, I suspect the FBI is spending more time providing cover for the rapist in the White House and hunting down protesters than it is tearing apart these kind of networks at the moment.
It's EXTREMELY gross, and I doubt there's the stomach for the kind of purge that it requires.
Should be noted that it's 62 million hits, not 62 million people (as that they're mostly from the US, that would be about one in six of the US population), but it's bloody grim - and very reminiscent of the Dominique Pelicot case in France.

I am at a loss on how this accursed website decided I give a solitary damn about foot-the-ball.
As far as I am aware, I have never liked or commented anything about the undertaking, but now I am forced to know things about how Arsenal have been doing?
Every so often I am reminded that taking the red pill was invented by a pair who both turned out trans women, and that the original concept of being involuntarily celibate is from a non-binary person.
Hell of a thing to base a misogyny cult on.
I, for one, am very happy to see the US military faceplant in this instance.
This debacle may drag the world into a recession, but it's probably saved a couple of nations from being invaded.
Personally, I'm of the opinion that it's best for the fascist party's chosen law enforcement and counterintelligence chief to be a drunken incompetent. It minimises the damage he can cause.
Important to bear in mind that it was rebuilt early in production so that the villains were cackling megalomaniacs in order to avoid little Timmy thinking "but my dad works for Exxon-Mobil, does that make my dad bad?"
"Don't litter" is easier to sell to advertisers than "prosecute oil executives".
GURPS is weird.
I've gotten so many sourcebooks over the years - PDF or dead tree - and never more than glanced at the corebook.
They seem to run on the idea that it's easier to track the cars which are NOT on the road, so they get tracked when they are registered, when they change hands (the easiest place for the system to falter), when they are scrapped, and when they're taken off the road for an extended period.
In the UK, there's something called a Statutory Off-Road Notification, which signifies that it is not going to be on public roads (including being parked) for the duration, and means that you don't require road tax or insurance.
Five Warhammer 40k miniatures. From left to right: Guain, Launciel, Zabriel, Kuziel, and Borz. Palette is black, red, silver and bone
Family photo of all of my Risen so far. It's a really fun project and the Red Corsairs are perfect for it #wepaintminis #nerdlings #40k #warhammer #painting40k
The weird (and pretty much canon) polycule that is Kirk / Enterprise / Scotty.
I'm shocked - Shocked! - to find racism in the racist party.
I don't think it's even "can't be bothered". They planned NONE of this.
The US doesn't even have an identifiable goal for this clusterfuck. They expected Iran to give up, and then something something freedom.
(Or something something exploitative contracts and a golf course, in this case.)
A big part of it is that the US is used to fighting as coalition - it has bases all over the world, and this makes it possible to ACT all over the world.
But if the host nations think you've started a pointless war that's harming them for no gain, it means you need to ship supplies from home.
