Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 14/10/2026These are people who chose to go to a Trump Rally. Are you sure they would boo her? 020
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 14/10/2026So what she's saying that if the US Department of Defense won't provide them snuffporn, MAGA will use Grok to make their own and therefore the DOD should just do it? 000
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Trump will disappear her first for being bad on TV. 030
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 14/10/2026I've heard my whole life that the sentences we set for crimes are punitive enough to make potential criminals consider not criming, to avoid them. But not for one second has Miller considered not doing crimes and cruelty to potentially avoid that prison time. 000
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 14/10/2026"But it will all work out. Now, it may not work out how you think it will or how you hope it does, but believe me, it will all work out. Exactly as it's supposed to. Our job is to have zero expectations and just let go." Probably fine from a fake soccer coach. Not fine from a President. 000
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 14/10/2026It's also that a domestic manufacturer looks at the increased list price of their foreign-made competition and just raises their prices to match. 010
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 14/10/2026The Fed waited too late to start hiking rates in 2022 and they have waited too late this time too, bullied by Trump. 000
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 14/10/2026They know they're enrolled, but they hope they never have to make a claim because it means something disastrous happened to them. 110

Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 13/10/2026Voters are almost never given the ballot option of "raise taxes or lower taxes" though. Just look at the current one-time referendum wealth tax California is considering. It will affect around 250 people, but those individuals are spending billions to turn public opinion away from it. 020
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 13/10/2026Poor survey format. If you ask anyone a simple question like "do you want to pay more taxes", everyone will say no. If you ask a more nuanced question like, "do you think the US should raise revenue to avoid adding $15k debt per household per year to the national debt", you would get other results. 120
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 13/10/2026Weird for a guy who searched for the couch with the deepest crevices... 000
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 13/10/2026At minimum, restrict their use to Declared Wars or natural disasters. Not picking up trash or doing domestic law enforcement on the whims of a despot. 000
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 13/10/2026And the National Guard needs to be completely separated from DOD. Too many folks volunteered thinking they'd be helping their states and communities, but instead are sent to fight in overseas wars. 100
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 13/10/2026We don't need DHS. We don't need ICE. CBP is rotten from the core & needs to be fundamentally undone. TSA is security theatre. USCG back to DOD. USSS back to Treasury. FEMA is incredibly important in our era of climate change & shouldn't be politicized as it is now -- make it an Independent Agency. 121
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 13/10/2026I wouldn't be surprised if Goliath is closed thru Spring 2027 as seatbelts are added. There will be lawsuits against the park and its maintenance (and even the ride operators themselves), as well as possible secondary suits against the manufacturer if it is not proven to be obvious neglect by SFOG. 010
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 13/10/2026...and at least one system has electronic sensors to ensure that every seat is secure before a train would be able to launch. We will learn more in the days to come, and I predict all these similar models will face high scrutiny to ensure safety that the parks strive to provide. 110
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 13/10/2026ThunderStriker, formerly Intimidator (2010) at Carowinds has the same seats and lapbar, but also has a seatbelt which must be seperately fastened before the lapbar is lowered. Both restraints are checked before a train is dispatched... 110
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 13/10/2026Other coasters like Blue Hawk, Dare Devil Dive, and Superman have only single function restraints. Some states require redundant safety systems on the seats, and some manufacturers choose to include them or not include them based on state/operator requirements. 110
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 13/10/2026That rider died and 3-4 others injured. (The other train on the track was stopped as it had started up the lift hill behind the first, and those guests were safely evacuated. This was the footage the local news was running while trying to report with little information available yet.) 110
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 13/10/2026Incredibly sad and tragic news from Six Flags over Georgia today. Based on current reporting, the restraints on one of the trains of Goliath, the 2006 large steel roller coaster, and the park's premier attraction, failed and at least one rider was ejected as it approached the final brake run. 110
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 12/10/2026It costs them nothing politically nor personally to do it -- why would they stop? 010
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 10/10/2026I wasn't aware it was the job of the Ukrainian President to make Donald Trump's life easier. 0111

Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Yes. They are now trapped by current interest rates and inflated home values for the downsizers they would normally be going into. It stops new homebuyers from buying their starter homes existing from moving to larger houses, that the empty-nesters will now be renting out. 1100
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 10/10/2026You mean how the IDf treated civilians and prisoners of war? www.bbc.com/news/article...bbc.comGazan detainees tell BBC of torture by IDF and Israel Prison ServiceInterviews with five men held in the months after the Hamas attacks reveal allegations of violence and abuse, adding to reports of misconduct by military and prison staff. 020
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 10/10/2026You don't get credit for stopping wars Netanyahu started unless you also stop him from just doing it again. Just like you don't get credit for 'obliterating' Iran last year when they clearly weren't. The only thing he actually stopped was Obama 's JCPOA which was actually preventing Iran nukes. 020
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 10/10/2026He claims to deserve the peace prize after, amongst other things that he personally didn't do, getting allies to increase war spending? Make it make sense. 010
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 09/10/2026We get out of it what we put in it. There's nothing wrong with watching TV if it engages your brain -- pick the right TV. Pick the right books, or music, or whatever. 010
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 09/10/2026I mean, all celestial bodies all act on all other celestial bodies, based on their respective masses and distances between them 020
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Hillary and Joe Biden already had plenty of name recognition. When political consultants tell candidates to say 'my opponent', it's all about managing airtime.ossoff says Mike Collins now because he follows it up with strong declaratory statements and will use those clips later in ads. 040
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Their casserole is fine, but it's not pizza. They also have pizza which is fine. But if that was an actual issue, Trump would have sent the military to Altoona PA long ago. 000
Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 09/10/2026No. Just like all the supposed jobs created -- there may be a couple hundred construction jobs in the first nine months, but that goes to a couple dozen tecnicians once it starts running. 000

Tallboy_the23rd @23tallboy.bsky.social · 08/10/2026And despite their incredible claims about how AI will replace all human jobs, I bet most have been personally unwilling to relinquish, say, their full personal finances to their own products yet. 100
