Yup. This is exactly it. All of it as a way to set up a situation to declare Martial Law and then shut down the mid-terms from happening.

Wasn’t aware of that, but now that you mention it, my own RTX 3060 is an MSI Ventus… (why did I not latch onto this one? Geez, sometimes I’m dim.)

The pennies, they be dropping…

TIL, thanks!

Ultimate fucking evil, those things are.

Hmmm.

Teen heart throb Jensen Ackles or the mature stud Jensen Ackles?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Ehhh, yeah. No Jensen. Get back to me with that once your stock is 10 bucks a share and I’ll believe that nvidia is suffering for anti AI sentiment.

How about, you focus on GPUs that don’t cost 3 months income? Better yet, pivot to making memory as well as graphics chips. FFS.

Kill lists solve a political problem, but leave an economic one. If Steven Miller really does want 100 million non-white people out of the US, it’s going to torpedo a lot of profit margins.

Naah, my wager is not violence from a firearm, but let’s see how people fare once their financial lives are destroyed.

Can’t make wage slaves out of dead people.

Contextually, I’d say the word in that sentence was “would”?

Hmmm. I think I won’t be reinstaling the Epic Games Store app on my gaming PC any time soon. (My old drive failed December of '23…) I’m only playing two games anyhow - Horizon Zero Dawn and No Man’s Sky and both I got through GOG.

NGL, I only tried the Epic Store to get Bioshock on one of their free giveaways… and it turned out to be a bit much.

Really not into body horror games… Or people that make excuses for maintaining platforms that enable the creation, and distribution, of CSAM.

See ya later, Tim.

Damn this in some essence reminds me of the 1998 Todd Solondz movie, Happiness. Which is ANYTHING but happy. (The actor Dylan Baker is a monster powerhouse in it, and has one of the hardest storylines to portray I’ve ever watched in a film.)

Putting on the happy face, but jet black on the inside.

Well done.

Oh, Columbus.

Rats!

I was hoping it was some cool hithero unknown historical fact regarding the English Civil War you knew of.

Well yeah. That.

LOL!

Indeed.

That’s a typical conservative, religious viewpoint that sees women and children as property to be used by men.

It’s a man’s prerogatvie, after all to put his dick wherever he wants. Whenever he wants. It’s a potent heady power trip for men that are single and lonely and feel powerless.

Vile nonetheless, lest you think I make excuses for it.

Suspending elections? Yep. That is EXACTLY the agenda, which is why cooler heads on the street need to be the rule and really, REALLY folks instead need lean into a Democratic wave at every level of government come the mid-terms.

The biggest rebuke will be undermining his authority by removing those who are appeasing his increasingly erratic EO’s. Businesses are pulling back from investing in US factories because EO’s aren’t LAW so much as any given President’s whims, and they can be swept away by the next adminsitration. This is something business understands with crystalline clarity. And they’re not wrong about it. Shit’s slowing down in the economy and all the gaslighting coming from the government won’t stop it.

I mean already the govermnet is looking at temporarily reinstating the ACA subsidies (likely for a year or two - just long enough to keep the GOP in power through the mid-terms) because not having them… well it’s in the process of fucking over meemaw and pawpaw and the kids as we speak…

FFS, even that gorgon, Marjorie Taylor Greene saw the writing on the wall once her kids lost their affordable coverage. Maybe she can give them money from the millions she already has? It’s not like she can’t swing their insurance costs.

But she doesn’t want to, I’ll bet.

Fun times ahead.

1642?

Charles the First Attacked Parliament?

No one except law enforcement would know Trump’s name outside of New York if Mark Burnett hadn’t put him on TV.

I blame that prick.

There was a real reason that Trump picked his skirts up and left for California to get on TV after he lost the Resorts Internation Hotel and Casino to Merv Griffin in the late 80’s. The Trump Taj left a ton of people holding the bag and he had to leave. Got himself TV famous so as to make sure no one - least of all the gangsters of the Philly mob he stiffed - could touch him.

(he owed Nicky Scarfo a lot of money…)

As LBJ famously stated back in the 60’s to his then-press secretary Bill Moyers: “If you can convince the lowest white man, that he’s better than the best black man, he won’t notice that your picking his pocket. Hell, give him someone to look down on and he’ll open his pocket for you…”

This is exactly the classism couched in racism that took our erstwile Mr. Rural for a ride. All them “blacks” on welfare taking their tax dollars… (because the unspoken bit is, ONLY blacks and minorities and uppity unwed women that breed like rabbits - the welfare “queens” don’tcha know… are on welfare…)

Every goddamn decade these poorly educated idiots fall for it.

My bet is that Trump will throw the biggest fascist - Steven Miller - under the bus at the point another suburban soccer mom gets killed, or some ICE agent with a hardon to be John Wayne loses it like the Minneapolis jackass did and shoots into a car with small children in the back seat and kills one or two.

Trump cares only about Trump (fuck America, the US is filled with rubes and marks perfect for his con-man ass to scam) and whoever he can use to make himself even bigger, he will.

The dude is massively insecure but knows how to sell and market his “brand”. And he did and the weak minds in the conservitve, poorly educated corners of the country bought the slick sales pitch.

The rest of us are fucked, but at least seeing the pricks in Washington DC for what they honestly are.

Oh, the shit the country’s got to endure because a child fucker is willing to burn the nation to the ground so as to stay out of jail.

honestly, what I hear when these nitwits say this is “I spent all my time being told what to think by people on TV (famous celebrities! Ooooo!) in the media that I was easily impressed by…”

It’s the full flower of the Southern Strategy that Lee Atwater leveraged in 1980 to help Reagan take the election. The early 80’s was also when Paul Manafort, Roger Stone and Lee Atwater - broke into politics in the biggest way and cemented lying and couched racism as right wing political tools…

It’s been all downhill for the US since then.

Oh yeah. Corporate and international sports? Of course they are.

Boycott all professional sports.

I was thinking at 13 seconds in, the little dance-hop it makes then wags it’s tail… the body movement… That rhino kinda was giving off “let’s play!” vibes.

Oh. My. word… that is adorable.

What do you wanna bet they are actually friends and playing?

Thank you for sharing this gem!
