@lovelylovely I turn off James Carville immediately.
All these pundits dissecting what happened. Go on Social Media and watch these Trump voters admit 1) the trans community terrifies them 2) women aren’t strong enough to be president or 3) deport the immigrants
Telling pollsters it is the price of eggs just sounds nicer

All righty. Now we know how this is going to go with Trump. Instead of choosing agency heads and cabinet members who are experts in their fields, Trump is choosing the worst imaginable people. On purpose, obviously. A Director of National Intelligence with no experience in the field of intelligence? A child molester for attorney general? A head of the CIA with no management skills? Okay. I get the message.

These folks learned well from Mussolini, as did Hitler. Sow chaos and fill positions with incompetent loyalists so that government malfunctions. Intentionally crash the government and the people will go for fascism. Easy peasy.

@loathsomecowboy Oh really? Well they all got elected.

And they're not "clowns." They're vile, lethal, calculating participants in a longterm plan to destroy us. And it's been going on for decades. And for decades were called "clowns."

And they may be incompetent fools, but they're in power and will and can irreparably damage our country and democracy.

Trump just picked Fox host Pete Hegseth to be his Secretary of Defense. In 2019 Hegseth said on air that he has not washed his hands for 10 years because "germs are not a real thing.”😐

It’s official. We’ve all lived long enough to see Idiocracy transform from parody to documentary.

Imagine if you will, you’re sitting at the dinner table eating your favorite curry dish. Outside it’s snowing and there is nowhere to be. You finish your dinner and head to the living room to sit by the fireplace in your most comfortable chair or couch in a dimly lit room listening to shortwave radio.

Life is bliss.

Happy birthday to Marie Skłodowska-Curie (1867 – 1934, Polish-born, naturalized-French #physicist & #chemist at work in her lab. The contents of her lab glassware appropriately glow-in-the-dark!

MAGA: We condemn all censorship!

So—no anti-BDS laws?
MAGA: Except that

No more book bans?
MAGA: Or that

No firing people disloyal to Trump?
MAGA: Or that

No banning DEI & climate change?
MAGA: Or that

What censorship do you actually condemn?🤔
MAGA: Opposing white supremacy

@eyesquash I blame the American Far Left, who got together with the American Far Right, and along with a delusional portion of blacks and latinos, and fucked the country right back into the stone age.

That's who I blame.

I swear to God, these people who design web-based systems these days are f***ing idiots. Have they learned nothing in 30 years of web design?

Sorry. Just venting.

I never heard of the #4B movement until today, and now I've heard about it from several sources.

I was way ahead of my time....

Investigative reporter Miranda Green outlined how “pink slime” newspapers, which are AI generated from right-wing sites, turned voters to Trump in key swing state counties. Republican strategist Sarah Longwell, who studies focus groups, told NPR, “When I ask voters in focus groups if they think Donald Trump is an authoritarian, the #1 response by far is, ‘What is an authoritarian?’” - Heather Cox Richardson

#Introduction

Hello I just moved here and my old account was BBQ_ali. I have a messy personal life and I love to distract myself with #art and work. I like #tarot cards. #Rancid is my favorite band. I toot about #Hockey and #CFL . I've heard my voice sounds like Louise from Bobs burgers. I don't really know what else to say except I'm nice and would love to make some new friends here.

Buying a Tesla now is pretty much an ironclad statement of fascism support.

In case there was any doubt about brainwashing by Fox and the rest...

Give yourself a break if you find you have the attention span of a gnat today, and please be extra careful (or as I say 'carfull') on the roads, b/c others probably are in the same fugue state. It's probably just that your brain is having to defrag stuff and it's choking on the CPU load.
