We're definitely gonna get some unironic Liberal "I didn't agree with him but he was a class act, unlike politicians on the Right today" takes about this war criminal who was instrumental in delivering us to this state of affairs while ruining millions of live. So that will be fun.

I used to vote in every election out of a sense of civil obligation.

Now I vote in every election with the spirit of someone trying to take advantage of a novel seasonal promotion before it goes away forever.

1 million job openings?! 1 million additional available housing units?!

One million bullshits detected?!

Premiums will no doubt be reduced because no actual healthcare will be covered. Simple!

God never gives you more than you can handle unless it would be funny from God's perspective to do so

I wonder if all the normie Dems who called themselves Cuomo-sexuals in 2020 are going to do any self reflection at all?

It's called the genius of the market!

Socialism will inevitably fail on its on because it is a flawed system which is why we have to impose sanctions, orchestrate coups, stamp out leftist groups in their infancy, generate huge amounts of propaganda and make it impossible to get a foothold--to save socialists the embarrassment.

It is immoral to use power to do anything that rocks the boat for my donors actually

I think the culture of impunity among our elite is one of the great rots at the core of our society but if it's gonna be this way I'm glad George Santos got pardoned because he's such a funny lil guy

Trump speaking from a demolished East Wing in 2028 like an alcoholic dad who can't finish remodeling the living room

I bought a standing desk for my home office and then I had to buy a really tall chair.

starting to wonder if we can really trust this Trump fella

I keep thinking about the millions of Americans who don't follow politics (or at least don't follow it obsessively like me because my brain is broken) and what their perception is of what is going on. Do they sense a crisis? Do they notice differences? Does any news coverage get their attention?

Colin (Writes Things) @colinwrites.bsky.social · 12d

have we thought of getting rid of everything

I live somewhere with a lot of Mormon missionaries. I also live somewhere with a lot of Fentanyl addicts. So when I encounter missionaries, I always ask them if they carry Narcan and encourage them to do so.

Even now, with things as dire as they are, with authoritarianism on the rise and ecological devastation reaching untold levels, there is a librarian in your town who just wants to hook you the fuck up.

WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THIS

It's cool that there are like 6 companies which can have a problem and just fuck up systems for people all over the planet for hours at a time

Seeing a lot of takes like "If this was a real autocracy you wouldn't be able to protest," which I guess is why you should wait until full totalitarianism has made dissent impossible and organize then.

One good thing about the internet is that even though I’m not a kid anymore I can still get exposed to cool new music, spend months devouring a body of work, then read some articles about how the artist whose work I’m emotionally bonded to is a sex pest or some other kind of detestable monster.

Trying to fit "Bring the empire in for a gentle crash landing instead of a species-threatening violent explosive collapse" on a yard sign without cramping the words at the end
