Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 11hTearing out speed cameras. Underfunding health care. Ripping out bike lanes. All decisions that lead to a certain increase in injuries and fatalities. How do we normally describe people who not only act like this but make it the cornerstone of their “contribution” to society? 000
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 17hW and now Vance. Yale’s “poster child” department needs some work. 010
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 08/10/2026That still leaves 52 million people clearly unfit for the level of thought the rest of us consider a bare minimum for civil society. 000
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Does he have to post an official certificate of clinical insanity before the people who have the power and responsibility to take action against a manifestly unfit and increasingly dangerous mentally infirm head of state actually act to preserve peace, prosperity, stability, and sanity? 000
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I love those days, live for those days, days that make the gear-grinding ones worthwhile. 040
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Anybody got a boat, a storm, and and an (optional) island? 000
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 06/10/2026The problem here, unlike the bike lanes that aren’t an obstruction, is that Doug Ford is the obstruction. I assume he uses his months of vacation time to block the hallways of every ER in the province. What else could he possibly be doing? 071
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Come on, Philippe. It’s a minority government with 28% of the vote. We come to you for sober stats, not overheated headlines. 010
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 05/10/2026He can see the future all he wants at the edge of that cliff, we will push it forward. 000
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I’m not American, Kyle. And you’re right. The Biden administration response to Trump’s criminality was abysmally inadequate and is a reason we are all where we are. Biden’s criticism, words as you say, are unimpeachable. His past actions, or rather lack thereof, were a gross dereliction of duty. 110
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 03/10/2026While history had always indicated it was at best temporary, let’s nevertheless have a brief moment of silence for the phrase “the world’s longest undefended border”. 020
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 03/10/2026And I bet the best and only defense they’ll have to Biden’s unimpeachable criticism is to double down on their own malfeasance and say that he’s “just jealous he didn’t think about doing the same”. 140
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 03/10/2026We have reconsidered and we still consider it good. The boycott stays. Fix the country and, sure, we’ll re-reconsider, but no promises. 000
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I uncontrollably launched a dessert item at the tv when that ad aired. If Ford had appeared in it, it would have been the whole table. 010
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Good lord, Schmitt used to be Missouri’s Attorney General. 🤦♂️ 000
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Does hell have a basement and, if so, 1) does that that have a hidden dungeon and 2) are there any vacancies? 000
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Kind of the perfect ending for Don Draper, isn’t it? 010
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Dumb and dumberest, the sequel we wanted but not like this. 000
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Tits? That is elephantiasis of the ghost fried egg sack. 030
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Been there but with a whole bag. The smell that keeps on giving. I just had to move in the end. 030
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 29/09/2026And that the Missouri education system is in dire need of funding. 021
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 27/09/2026It’s like the Addam’s family, but hide the children creepy instead of family fun creepy. 000
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 27/09/2026The White House is far from a sacred place for many reasons, including its current residents, but fundamentally because it represents precisely the opposite: secular power and authority. It is literally the “Presidential Mansion”, in former times presidential, these days more mansion. 000
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Quick grammar question. Can you lose something more after you’ve already lost it, e.g. “His mind is even loster than it was before?” 030
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Ah, the smell of Leafs in the autumn, my heart’s freshly opened stale bag of salt and vinegar chips. 010
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Seems like a drop in the…what’s the word I’m looking for? 000
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Sorry state of affairs when basic mathematical reality becomes a “hot take”. 060
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 23/09/2026You should see the foreign polling on this. It ain’t pretty. They use even more creative means of removal in their sampling questions. Are catapults even a thing anymore? 010
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 23/09/2026As an Ontarian I can confirm that Doug Ford disrespects the premier of Ontario everyday by being Doug Ford. As for Jessie Waters, who? 0230
Hagnostos @chrisstait.bsky.social · 23/09/2026It was the diplomatic equivalent of him saying, "I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn't lose any voters.” Raving lunatic then, batshit crazy now, and still not a straight jacket in sight. 000
