My brain got cooked by classical antiquity instead of modern politics in college, so I have a thing or two to say about oligarchy and petty-princes. I've worked in public utilities for over 20 years.

Look up “martial bisexuality in classical Greece”. This all makes sense in that context.

I’m still made the writers dropped the Phoenician thing from the first episode. That had legs…and oars!

At first, I thought had to be the imprint of some kind of ballistic vest, but it is starting to look like some kind of assisted walking device. If it has Bluetooth then games could be had.

It's not mainstream media. It's mass-market media and the consumer is a shit bird.

Arguably, that is using AI to edit. To write is human, but to edit is divine. What have you done?

You think MAGA is still a worthwhile voting bloc? No, no. Vance will appeal to ‘indeterminate centrists’ that always seem to fuck over America.

If Trump kicked the bucket this week it would give JD time to reverse all the tariff shit, recall the military, and maybe save the midterms and make himself look smart to low info voters. That’s my nightmare scenario.

In the western lexicon, the lion has been associated with kingship. Trump identifies with the lions in the video. He wishes to do overwhelming violence on whoever he wants. Fat ass must be mad at somebody and wants to feel good about himself.

People forget that Zelensky started out as a comedian. I hope he gets a Netflix special when this all over. The man did a skit about playing the piano with his balls, so he's good for hosting SNL.

Anybody else remember the FEMA camp conspiracy theories? They were always projecting what they wanted to do. Should a journalist be checking if Trump's FEMA is stockpiling grave liners?

The worst thing that could happen is Trump dies before the mid-term and JD Vance takes all of Rick's advice: end the war in Iraq, stop the tariffs, and put and end to the vanity projects. He would look like a hero to the average low information voter.

From the very beginning of Trump 2 I have astounded that Putin didn’t command Trump to trade him grain for pennies on the dollar. Armies are hungry. He’s trying to take Ukraine for their agricultural cultural capacity in the first places.

I can't remember the source, but I was listening to a commentator who was raised in the same kind of Christian environment as Harp and said the surest way to break her from Trump is too put a marriageable man in front of her.

Curtis Yarvin’s “Patchworks” city crap is just Stephenson’s ‘Snow Crash’ stretch taut over a SparkNotes version of Plato’s ‘The Republic’ like a waifu pillowcase. The entire concept probably started life as Yarvin’s high school homebrew Shadowrun campaign.
