My Facebook memories brought me this SNL sketch from 2019, all about the adorable outfits you're supposed to cram your children into for the cute family holiday portrait. Once again it made me laugh till I cried.

Since the Gestapo will presumably soon be demanding to see people's social media posts as a loyalty test, I would like to make it clear that I am extremely loyal to the US, which is why I hope our pathetic wannabe dictator -- that is, Donald J Trump, the 45th and 47 POTUS -- dies in prison.

We just HAD TO murder everyone on board those boats. There was no other choice! No other CONCEIVABLE WAY to stop them! Sure, the Coast Guard USED TO interdict suspected drug boats, but that's TOTALLY IMPOSSIBLE in this day and age.

Those folks from Minnesota sure are friendly! Solid advice for unwary ICE agents.
Hey, I want to offer some helpful tips for coping with the cold for ICE folks who might have come from warmer places.
1. Wear cotton socks! Cotton is nice and soft next to your skin and will absorb your sweat so your feet stay warm. Cotton everything but ESPECIALLY socks!

Good morning to fuckers in our neighborhood kidnapping our neighbors! Can you see the city skyline? No? You’re wondering if Minneapolis burned down again overnight? Oh no, sweetie. That’s ice crystals in the air . It looks like it will get to around -8F without windchill! Please enjoy your stay!

I don't personally care much about the White House, or the East Wing, but I get why people do, so I'm fine being mad on their behalf about our pathetic wannabe dictator burning it to the ground out of spite.

@isomorphism.net, along the lines of what you've been saying about Platner.
Believe me, no one wants to be past l'affaire Platner more than I do, but I think it's worth a brief discussion about how electoral politics work in America.
There is a common perception in this country - perhaps you have noticed! - that politicians are not public servants, but celebrities.

Charlie Kir was a disgusting vile racist homophobic sexist bigot, who encouraged violence against people he didn't like.
I'm not glad he was murdered, but I'm appalled that anyone is celebrating and honoring this asshole.

I am not a member of antifa.
... because antifa is not an organization, and does not have members.
Labeling "antifa" as a domestic terror organization just lets Republican fascists claim that anyone is an antifa member and send them to the slave camps, since it's completely impossible to disprove.

Judge for yourself: Here's Jimmy Kimmel, viciously celebrating political violence.
I for one am VERY GLAD that our pathetic Pretender King had the FCC get Kimmel fired.

I'm on the fence about whether we should be punching Nazis in the face, but I definitely don't think we should be assassinating them.
But, they're still Nazis, so, you know, fuck those guys.
