Didn't you know, you're only allowed to make woodchipper jokes if you're a conservative and they aren't actually jokes.

the boomers were all wrong; the press-a-number phone trees were actually the lesser evil.

the voice recognition phone trees that can't understand even the simple one word prompts they give you as an example of what to say are a thousand times worse

I used to be attracted to teenaged girls. Then I stopped being a teenager. Time normally does that.

Why the fuck are you voting for people who didn’t stop being attracted to teenagers?

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

I love the Trump apologists who are like "be careful what you wish for. If the Epstein files come out, some of your people might get caught up in it." Really, so what you're saying is we could take out even more powerful pedophiles? Fuck yeah let's roll.

"This could take down Democrats, too."

I know. And I frankly wouldn't give even an itty bitty damn if it implicated every Democratic man in Congress, every Democratic hopeful for 2028 and every Democrat who has even thought about running for office.

Down with the sex predators, wherever they are.

It is hard to get over that the Q-Anon folks spent years feverishly looking in pizza parlors for the cabal of rich, elite pedophiles and it turns out THERE WAS ONE, right in front of their noses, which they failed to identify and instead voted for three times in a row.

The notion abusers need to resort to conspiracies and subterfuge is more comforting than the truth that many people will readily look the other way when confronted with sexual violence if doing otherwise would even slightly inconvenience them
Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes.

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

At this point the most moral position you can hold is that the president is a pedophile and the republican party is protecting him. There’s no possible other explanation

“Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage” is actually a really good little sitcom. It’s obviously heavily derivative of The Big Bang Theory on a character basis, but it avoids most of the pitfalls that show falls headfirst into.

I’m considering having another go with patreon support for my retro programming projects as I build them.

Do you already support any creators on Patreon?

✅ Yes, regularly

🤔 Occasionally or in the past

🙂 Not yet, but I know what it is

😅 What’s Patreon?
