Israel will lose that war.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

I very much look forward to the increase in mortality rates among men. Married and otherwise.

Lots of Goodbye Earl energy flying around and I love it.

Oh I have no doubt that the Blackrocks and Birkshire Hathaway’s of the nation are absolutely throbbing at the prospect. Literally diamonds. Those dusty old corpses won’t need their hourly viagra until 2030.

Slavery is already a thing. Happens all the time. All over this country. It never ended, today it’s big billion dollar business.

Anyone thinking it won’t intensify under Chump is delusional.

I fully expect the US to balkanize eventually.

Lol. Let them.

Grafton NH 2: Electric Boogaloo.

Faro Plague. Here we go.

Americans think they have a lock on racism. But we’re noobs at it. Europe has about 1000 years on us in that arena.

Nothing more normal than screaming “I’m Normal! I’m Normal! I’m Normal!” to everyone you can possibly victimize with your shrill not un-harpy-like voice.

The only business interests Chump is concerned with are those with his name on them.

Ha.

This is the only good thing about Apple products. Yes, the only one.

I am.

Thank you Sir or Madam.

I don’t know the name of the practice. But I already do the buy for just 1 month thing when they’ve got something I really wanna watch.

Right now I’m waiting for Bleach to finish so I can get a month of Hulu so I can watch that and the new Futurama.

They don’t deserve a concurrent monthly payment. And I’m happy as hell to deny one to them.

I am not here to argue. I will not engage beyond this post no matter what is said in response because I don’t want to fight.

What matters is policy. Real hard on the ground policy that real normal people can feel and see where they live.

When some wonk gets on MSNBC with a spreadsheet hooting about how much better things are with grocery prices or housing costs, that doesn’t mean anything to someone who’s begging for extra shifts at work so they can make rent. Those are aggregates and averages. If the 200k-500k bracket is doing better while the 13k-45k bracket isnt, the numbers still went up. That looks better in the data. But the people at the bottom are still suffering just as much as ever. They don’t feel or see any improvement because there wasn’t any. Not for them.

The health and performance of the stock market only matters to those on the bottom when it crashes and suddenly they’re paying more for everything. At no other point does it impact them in the slightest. Those record profits aren’t reinvested, they’re not used to reduce the strain on consumers. Its gobbled up by a few dozen shareholders. It benefits nobody else. And if an executive or CEO has the slightest semblance of a soul and wants to help consumers they’re voted out because the only responsibility is to those few dozen shareholders.

Healthcare. The ACA was a grand achievement. They took Romneycare national. Round of applause for all involved. But its still cheaper to do some form of Universal Healthcare. That would be the easiest win in history. And everyone would feel it immediately. It would help 100,000,000 people immediately. People who have been putting off medical treatment for half their lives because of the extortionist expense would immediately seek treatment. They would seek preventative treatment and raise the overall health across the country. Obesity rates drop, drug use plummets, etc.

Marijuana. Literally every person I know and interact with in my daily life uses it. Do you know the number one reason I’ve heard from all of them? Pain management. Again, another easy win that is supported by everyone except the ghouls who were alive when it was called “The Devil’s Lettuce” and propagandized into believing its this terrible thing.

Hard Policy that people can feel and see in their daily lives. You can still court the comfortable liberals who care about the stock market and all that. They’ll be fine no matter who is in office. If they need an abortion it’s a weekend vacay to Zurich or somewhere. But you’re never going to hold any meaningful power again without hard policy. Because for decades now the republicans have cornered the market on grievance politics and reaction. To break through that you need something real. No more vibes based nonsense. It will not work.

I love that we have data to back that up now.

Unfortunate.

Not insane. They’re illiterate. Literarily, economically, emotionally, etc. Fed a steady diet of reactionary pavlovian conditioning since at least the mid-90s.

Kamala ran to the right. Which has looooong been a losing prospect. Over and over again that strat has cost them and they never learn.

Most lethal military, build the wall, enabling a genocide. There were many many chances to not eat that curb. Nevertheless, they dove teeth first into it with gusto.
