They’re trying to trick you…

Hey, let's let a bunch of unaccountable strangers re-write our constitution at the behest of a shadowy cabal. What can go wrong there? www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzQD...

No, and the battery is *very* poorly shielded. Apropos of nothing, there's a big obvious motor lockout button on the back of the main body that turns it into a very expensive paperweight.

To be fair, 70% of Americans opposed rule by white supremacists and religious nuts but it turns out that didn't matter.

**WHY** do you want to throw garbage into our perfectly good sun?

Right?! I was led to believe that quicksand would be a MUCH bigger problem when I grew up!

In the United States, local politicians are relatively inexpensive and very shortsighted. Guess what happens next? I USA er lokale politikere relativt billige og kortsynede. Gæt hvad der sker?

For those of you playing the home game, an American aircraft carrier only puts out about 200 MW. For jer, der spiller hjemmekampen, så udsender et amerikansk hangarskib kun omkring 200 MW.

The way things work here, I wasn't sure this was satire! Sådan som tingene går, var jeg ikke sikker på, at det var satire!

I can't get used to Little People being so big and detailed. This is better and they're amazing, it's just...different?

The 14th amendment - in its entirety, but I'm looking at you Section 3 - was never properly enforced after the first rebellion, and that's what's enabled where we are right now.

000

You can get a hunting license for the most weirdly specific things nowadays.

I'm actually surprised. Petty revenge seems to be one of the regime's top priorities - I'd have expected them to kick in his door and arrest him WAY sooner.

I never realized before hearing the last three justices during their nominations that just straight-up lying was an option during a job interview.

He's never faced any consequences in his entire life, what makes you think he even *conceives* of being vulnerable now, when he's so important to the agenda of so many powerful men?

000

Some systems are actively hostile to user programming or tinkering. RedCAP is a good example. Tinker too far outside its box and it has the digital equivalent of a hysterical fit.

How does that go? "Truth is the first casualty, and the last wound to heal"?

I cannot *wait* to see the Food and Wine Festival drunks try to operate these after starting from the wrong end of World Showcase. Also: Solar panels on top...do they realize as a result of Project Stardust people use those things as dining tables, diaper changing stations, &c.?

On-brand for the boy king though. All it needs now is a few Cybertrucks up on blocks in the front lawn. How long do you think we have before he just drops all pretense and names it "Mar-a-lago North"?

"Ah don't worry. I'm sure Smithfield can do a fine job regulating themselves. Private industry always has the best interests of the public at heart!"

Respectfully, sir, what in his behavior up to this point leads you to believe that the rule of law will slow him down *this time*?

Wow. 'Cars 4' is going to be way different than I thought.

000

Preventable, but hey, we saved 0.49% of the federal budget by executing USAID.

My money is on agitators trying to spark violence somewhere to discourage nervous demographics from showing up, and/or ICE or "citizen's militias" prowling around. Less worried about that second one where I vote because the nearest McDonald's is too far away.

000

Oh absolutely. But TO work it requires a selection mechanism different than the one we have. And since the ones who only stay in power because the system is rigged the way it is control whether or not it can be changed.....

because she either didn't talk about Palestine or eggs enough. It's stupid, but the whole greased-pig wrestling match for the power to control peoples' lives seems to *make* people stupid.

cleave to in Republican rhetoric. Democratic, Undecided, or Independents tend to be laser focused on that one thing and if the candidate doesn't talk about it they're dead to them. That's how Kamala lost - voters strapped on horse blinders and either refused to vote or wasted capital elsewhere

That mess of a platform calls to MAGA voters because hate is intersectional; you will almost never find a single-issue bigot. Get a homophobe talking and sooner or later he's going to spear off into brown people, the lazy poor, generation Z or AA or 9 volt or whatever. They always find something to

100

Worst of all? The bad guys here will always have the advantage because their platform casts a wide net. Really look at the plans Heritage has for us, and you see hate for an ironically diverse number of people, places and things burning on and on like a tire fire out of control.

Another of course is that a lot of them don't really have a problem with the policies of the current regime. A third party isn't a solution because the current power structure *knows* it would break the duopoly, and so do everything in their power to block threats like Ranked Choice voting.

I think part of the problem is that they are all owned by the same people, so they profit from the status quo of inching the Overton Window towards whoever's ideology will privatize public works and deregulate industries.

He's safe until the the act he's the front man for decides he's outlived his usefulness.

Oh, except that they went to a great deal of trouble to ensure that the onus of proof is on YOU to convince the court something was outside the scope of his duties. And all the documentation you could possibly use to do that have been declared privileged.

There's a joke in here somewhere about "average vs. mean" but I think I'll just back away slowly.

"Honey, have you seen my keys?"

000

I swear to God if I have to hear "I'M NOT VOTING THE DEMOCRATS NEED TO LEARN A LESSON" from certain people for another 2 years I'm going to...anyone else smell toast?

Nice to see Reb Brown getting work.

I'm 100% sure the Chinese government will not use this as a reason to be unpleasant. At all.

000

CBS's Tony Dokoupil sort of didn't actually have a Chinese visa when he was sent to report on the meeting in Beijing between 47 and Xi. So they set up shop and did their coverage from Taipei, because that's as close as he could get. Yes. He's in Taiwan. Formosa if you're nasty.

CBS is burned as an organ of the regime now, proudly taking their storied newsroom and journalistic tradition behind the barn and putting two in the back of its head. David Ellison can't even find people to run a *competent* quasi-pravda! Case in point....
