I swear, at this point, as soon as is possible the assets of this entire regime, and any billionaires bankrolling all this BS, as well as those of any companies, organizations, entities, etc they control. $10B being diverted to the “Board of Peace” without any oversight is just corruption.

I swear, the fact the Dow dropped under 50k just over 24 hours after Bondi made her asinine statement and have stayed there is like the US markets stopped and said “um, no, I am not the topic at hand, and will not be dragged into your BS takes, you lying asshat.”

GOP = Grifters Or Pedophiles I think that about sums up the current GOP.

The DOW is under 50k. Can we impeach this motherfucker and all this lackeys now?

Do members of the GOP realize they are leading their party down the path of being labeled a terrorist org for the damage being done to the country and world at large? Things will NOT go back to ”the way they were”, and there will be an accounting for those responsible and their supporters.

How quickly the US went from “a shining city on a hill” to a cautionary tale for the world to pay attention to lest they repeat our mistakes. The true irony is the Rs were in charge for Reagan’s statement and for trump cosplaying Nero.

Dear leaders of all nations launching investigations into Epstein: Please release all the material with ONLY victim info redacted. Thank you. Sincerely, All Americans wanting every non-victim full investigated and, where the evidence supports, charged, & prosecuted, regardless of who they are.

So maybe, just maybe, one of the qualifiers for holding any federal elected position should be passing a test on the US Constitution. You know, the one they all swear to defend. Seems being knowledgeable about it would be required to, you know, defend it.

So if the US invades Greenland, does that mean the US populace should “invade” our own country to defend an ally who we are duty bound to defend that the current regime is threatening because of <waves hands in the air> bat shit crazy leader and sycophantic followers reasons?

Happy “they should have leveraged the 25th by now” Day. Hard to imagine we’ve celebrated this day 365 days over the last year.

The Liquid Glass display in the new apple OS update is complete shit.

The GOP is a domestic terrorist organization.

On the good news front: the feral orange tabby that showed up a while ago (and keeps coming back because we feed her) finally allowed me to scratch her head and back this morning. 🙂

I would honestly welcome UN election monitors too make sure the next US election is legit.

I will henceforth be referring to any person affiliated with ICE as an ICEhole. You may now return to your scrolling already in progress.

If Lincoln was alive today he would slap the fuck out of the GOP, while telling them to keep his name out of their mouths. Party of Lincoln, my ass. Party of Lies is more fitting.

Can we start referring to the current admin as a Domestic Terrorist Organization?They’re the ones inflicting terror on the US populace, so it seems only fitting.

So speaking as US citizen, I have a question for folks outside the US. I am regularly seeing posts saying the American people need to do more. We’ve never been in this position before, so folks from nations that have dealt with fascism in power, what would your suggestions be to stop this madness?

So is it now the policy of the US to attack and kidnap the leaders of nations trump has issue with? And yes, this is a serious question. This is a war by fiat. There has been no authorization from Congress.

Crazy thought: once the current debacle of an admin is ousted, all presidential pardons need to be reviewed and any instances of pay or favor for a pardon should nullify those pardons and those individuals returned to jail, with additional bribery charges.

Claiming standing against Netanyahu and Israel’s occupation and genocide in Palestine is anti-Semitic has the same exact energy as claiming standing against trump and his administration’s violence and gross legal/Constitutional violations is unAmerican. Both claims are bullshit.

Dear MAGA, If trump is honest when he says the tariffs have brought in “$18 trillion” of dollars, why has the national debt increased by almost $2T dollars since January (with most coming in from July on) rather than go down? Hint: it’s because he’s lying to you.

Maybe the problem with all these right wing pseudo-Christian maga type is that they are God fearing. If, per Christianity, God is love, then God fearing Christians fear love. Which would explain a lot of their behavior. At the same time, fuck them. Their baggage should not be dumped on us all.

It is now six days that Odie has been missing and it’s killing me. He broke out of an improperly secured carrier when I picked him up from the vet. No luck with the live trap (two opossums and a different cat). Please keep your fingers crossed that he makes it home (the vet is a 6 mile rural drive).

Serious question: are folks interested in new Pathfinder 1e content? #TTRPG #PF1e #RPG

GenAI is that guy who floats really crazy fucking fever dream type ideas at every meeting but can’t get fired because he’s the owner’s nephew. Or it’s the guy doing massive amounts of drugs, hallucinating and claiming to be a tech god who … aw fuck, Musk is the human incarnation of GenAI.

Post a non political stance that you believe to be true. I’ll start: The day you stop playing is the day you start to die.

At this point, any time I see someone post up a suggestion to ignore part of the Constitution (most recent, only counting “citizens” instead of “persons”, as stated in the Constitution, for the census), I’m just going to ask them how long they’ve been a traitor.

So maybe, hear me out here, maybe the Heritage Foundation should be declared a terrorist organization for writing the document responsible and actively working for the enactment of all the current bullshit.

If the swastika is now consider “potentially divisive” rather than a glaring red flag to bar the person from serving in the Coast Guard, should the CG now be classified as an antisemitic group and treated as such? Colleges were threatened with the loss of fed $$, wonder how the CG will fund itself?

Would trump’s posts calling for the execution of congresspeople be a violation of 18 U.S. Code § 115 (a1B)? Honest question because we have never been into this particular craptacular situation previously. This timeline sucks more every day.

Seems a fitting day to bring back a classic xkcd comic: imgs.xkcd.com/comics/depen...

No clue why companies are leaning so hard into to GenAI. If a human were hired and experienced “hallucinations” which resulted in the creation of completely fictitious content with bogus citations, they were be fired in a heartbeat, not heavily invested in.

Harvested my first mushrooms from the shitake logs I inoculated early last spring. About 3/4 of a pound so far, which almost covers the cost of the plugs for the logs.

So when I wake up a couple hours before work starts, I jump into some old tv series. Started on The Newsroom (2012). Up to episode 3 and the call out of Mike Lee; solid show and surprisingly relevant.

Morning thought. Since the distraction of the East Wong has literally zero to do with “presidential duties”, can trump and his estate (along with the company who demoed it without congressional approval) be responsible for covering the cost of the rebuild along historical structure guidelines?

Mornings like this make me seriously wonder why we opted for a two party solution. Both parties need to be dropped. We need a coalition of voices, not an arguing couple. We need to make life better FOR THE PEOPLE, not just the wealthy. The current course will lead us to disaster.

Odd morning thought: if enough folks drop out of a social media platform that leans in heavily in on AI generated content and AI posts, how soon before the whole things reiterates into some weird crazed AI site geared solely to AI “interests” rather than people.

The GOP went from Reagan railing on breadlines in the Soviet Union to trump creating them in the US. At this point, for folks who throw the word “great” around so much, I don’t think they have any fucking clue what it actually means.

Why does the GOP keep telling itself to hold its own beer when it comes to truly horrendous behavior?

You know, if I stopped showing up at work, but would call in every few days to say basically I was not aware of the major issues of the day, l’m sure I would have been fired after a few days. Yet almost a month and a half later, the House is STILL on recess during this shutdown of their own making.

But hey, those Confederate statues can’t be touched because <waves hands> “heritage”, right? This timeline sucks more and more every day.

So if you “accidentally” get a tattoo of a well known Nazi symbol and when you find out what the tattoo actually is, if your first response is not to say you had no idea and will be getting it removed/covered IMMEDIATELY and apologize for your error, then chances are you actually are a Nazi.

Best Spotify alternative?

I will say this: trump leaning into AI to create propaganda (albeit bad propaganda) is perhaps the biggest argument to regulate the absolute FUCK out of AI tech, including putting harsh anti-deep fake laws on the books (this has always been one of my biggest concern for unregulated AI).

Only in the US would the nation’s leader turn to AI to create a confirmation that, yes, he is in fact shitting all over the people of the nation.

For all the folks who posted up “bUt AmErIcA dOeSn’T hAvE a KiNg” nonsense in advance of yesterday’s rallies: trump is increasingly leaning into ruling by fiat. A president does not rule by fiat, a wannabe king does. Hope that helps clarify things a bit.

Trump this morning: “what do you mean it wasn’t a riot? There were people all over the place like when I had folks storm the Capitol! There had to be riots!!!” Trump’s lackeys trying being the one to tell him people think he sucks so much the protests were pretty much anti-trump parties, not riots.

It’s Of the People By the People and For the People, not Tyrants.

Whoever said that Truth is stranger than fiction Way too accurate
