The opening screen from the arcade game "Bad Dudes," altered to read:

GOD HAS BEEN
KIDNAPPED BY WOKE LEFTISTS

ARE YOU A BAD ENOUGH DUDE
TO RESCUE GOD?

EVERY GENERATION: "But what if we could, if you will, 'overclock' our 'hardware' and—"

Stop, you've once again reinvented cocaine. …Actually, no, let's give it another shot.

It's probably a bad sign that I recognize the 1,000th, 999th, and 998th biggest Bluesky accounts.

But what am I to do? Log off? Get real.

Nothing is more infuriating than this version of the Internet Tough Guy. "I can't be bothered to protest but if I could, I'd riot instead, not that I will."

Whatever happened to these guys bragging about all the terrorists they sniped as a Marine Core Soldier™? That was at least funny.

We may not want to live in a world where robot porn has access to our nuclear secrets, but it's naïve to just pretend the problem will go away.

So take that at face value. What's the most effective counter-narrative? A professorial exegesis of the rhetorical meta-strategy, the discursive/coercive turn, facts are social constructs?

Or is it saying "That's it, Grandpa's cooked, very sad, hope no one's dumb enough to follow him into madness"?

They won't do it with ICE's collusion because the dead giveaway would be ICE subduing the "attacker" professionally, meaning without spreading his brains all over the pavement.

And they won't do it without ICE's collusion because ICE would spread their brains all over the pavement.

I agree but tbf this sentence could have stopped at any number of points, including after the fourth word, and still been just as true.

This is exactly right, but I wonder if it'll really matter that much. These guys weren't pillars of their communities before, especially the ones filling the ranks now. Nobody's giving up respectability for an ICE paycheck and they aren't the type to give a shit if they're reviled anyway.

As a sicko lateral fetishist I appreciate that the token forward pass was underwhelming and behind the line of scrimmage.

More perverted filth like this, please.

I dunno, I wonder if we'll look back in six weeks or six months on Laura Loomer suddenly going scorched earth on the Trump admin (if not Trump himself) and think, "Ah, that makes sense, she knew what was coming."

Then again, she is beyond insane, so who knows?

I mean I was kind of on the fence, but now that I hear that we'll get PAID, damn, I'll work two shifts!

The sound doesn't really add much to the video and I feel like it should have been replaced with someone just making little "doin' a task" noises. Dum de dum dum dum… doot da doo… [aimless whistling]

As symbols of mass resistance go, a mob of Portland Frogs is just so vastly superior to those cringe-ass "V for Vendetta" masks.

LEFT: some schmuck
RIGHT: the righteous manifestation of the People's will

some schmuck in a black hoodie and a "V for Vendetta"/Guy Fawkes mask, who will someday be trying and failing to get laid by telling the story of his Black Bloc heroics

I don't see the resemblance, but I for one respect the horny posting for Dr. Crusher, who was fundamentally a horny character in profound ways that fuckboi Riker couldn't begin to match.
