Lol we’re already there. 2019 was the most cases the US has seen since the measles were declared eradicated in the country. New York and Washington declared an official state of emergency for it. This year is barely better and we are perilously close to losing its elimination status which would (obviously) make us the only developed nation to hold that honor.

Fun fact, this year 97% of cases were found in people that were not fully vaccinated. Of course this is merely a huge coincidence and vaccines serve no other purpose than turning us and the neighboring wildlife gay but it’s worth noting.

Lol if I had a dollar for every time I’ve heard about the next CoD killer

I just checked in Android and it’s surprisingly #8. Friggin threads is #3 which is shocking cause I never hear or see anything about it. X is at #25 just behind mcdonalds lol. I’m not smart enough to know exactly what that means tho because pretty much everyone already has X/Twitter/whatever the fuck it’s called so of course that wouldn’t show up super high on there. I’ve also had multiple phones with it preloaded onto the OS.

Of course instagram and tik tok and Snapchat and Whatsapp are all pretty high up there so maybe it’s pretty solid evidence of that dumpster fire actually burning.

Oh don’t worry! That’s what the checks and balances is for. There will always be a check to the executive branch. Sure the executive branch is Republican but the Senate won’t be-… Well wait okay it is but at least the house-… Well alright they’ll have the executive branch, the house, and the Senate, but the judicial branch is still going to be able to-… Well at the very least two of them are about to retire and will be replaced with ppl hand picked by president so th-…

Well at least the ice cream machines at McDonald’s can be fixed independently now… That’s something right?

I’m also legitimately convinced that the average American person is just an asshole and likes other assholes. Trump is the most conceited, whiney, cry baby, know it all, jagoff and everybody knows it. He wears it like a medal. And people love it man. They just eat it up.

It’s just like Carlin said. The politicians come from us. Because they are us.

I am so happy they’re putting up new videos. The election stuff is fantastic.

After a remarkably short court hearing, Elon Musk has found the presiding judge in his own case guilty of “the woke mind virus” and sentenced him to 47 years in jail. The jury watched the ruling read in Musk’s own halting and strange speech, collectively shrugged their shoulders, and went home. “Well he has all that money,” said Anne Sodding, one of the jurors on the case. “He must be right, I guess.” Mr. Musk has declined to comment and was last seen driving his Tesla Cyber Truck the wrong way down a one way street exiting the courthouse.

This was my thought. Like I find it VERY hard to believe his set wasn’t at least somewhat vetted beforehand. I cannot imagine they’d just let a comedian go up there and have absolutely no idea what he was going to talk about. That just seems like a total dumbass move so maybe it’s possible with Trump

It’s always so interesting (or heartbreakingly depressing) for me to hear this. I have seen that to some extent where I live, although very tepidly. However, when I go visit friends and family in much more red areas I feel like I’m going into bizarro world. People are doubling and tripling down. It’s like a weird arms race or something between trump and his sycophants as they desperately try to keep up with each other in terms of bigotry and just overall insanity and/or stupidity. I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that, in those areas, they ate this stuff up and asked for seconds.

It would make me incredibly happy if this was some sort of breaking point and it actually did open some eyes but having been there and seen the countless gigantic trump/Vance flags hanging from the bed of outrageously lifted pickups, I just don’t see it.

I feel like there’s a suicide something or other all over Japan and it makes me sad. Just off the top of my head I can think of this, the suicide forest, the sea wall on Mitsubishi Island, nijino bridge, that one train station in Tokyo… Shits depressing

All that matters is if that corpse has a big R next to its name.

I gotta say… I’m not necessarily a huge fan of Kamala but she is a pretty terrific speaker. Granted the bar has been buried underground for a bit now so my reference may be skewed but it is pretty nice to just see someone eloquently speak, be coherent, respectful, be decisive and concise, and actually say meaningful answers to each question. I have a feeling being in a courtroom for so long may have helped. As well as a career in law and government. Almost as if relevant experience is important or something… But I digress.

The number of times I’ve basically seen this exact same thing happen in history is crazy. It’ll be something like “Well ole Bill Jesterbong discovered the Gilded Anusbangle in August of 1827 on the island of Nebraska. Naturally, he built a hide in a tall fir tree and camped in it for 3 weeks straight shooting and killing all 1382 Gilded Anusbangles to see if their hide could be useful or if they were tasty. Turns out they were not. The Gilded Anusbangle is now extinct.”

I had the exact same experience a few years ago. A lender did some quick math within like 20 minutes of talking and was like “I think we could go ahead and lock you in at loan in the mid 600’s”

Lmao we could never in a million years dream of affording that. Idk wtf that dude was thinking but I can’t even begin to try and figure out how I’d be able to afford that mortgage unless it was like a 3,000 year 1.08% loan or something.

There are places alllllllll over California right now where you can get a burger and fries or onion rings or shit another burger for way less than $30. This includes giant chains and tiny mom and pops. Sounds like that place just sucks at finances or running a business or both lol.

He tells it like it is. You just don’t get it. But also he’s never serious. Unless I want him to be. Then he’s serious. But usually he’s joking. Unless it’s in bad taste, then it’s just not what you think it is. Or maybe you’re a snowflake. Idk the pieces are all there, one of those things should get me out of this…

From the title I thought we were looking at an age of empires Luigi crossover. I’m kinda disappointed now

Honestly he’s so rich I don’t even think that’s possible. I mean the dude could lose $1 billion per year and still be a billionaire after two centuries lol.

Few things in this world would make me happier than to be totally wrong tho

You say that but the “what about ism” I have heard from friends and family regarding pretty much any allegation of a GOP politician is absolutely bonkers. I don’t know how many times I have to say that I don’t care what jersey you wear, you should get punished for doing illegal shit. But it honestly just doesn’t matter.

We’ve reached the point where people think absolutely everything is just picking sides. If you want something bad for one side, it’s only because you are in the other’s pocket. It’s just exhausting.

The other argument I saw against him was he admitted when he made a mistake one time. I just remember it cause that struck me as so strange. Like… Yeah that’s awesome. Admitting you were wrong and trying to fix your mistake is a pretty damn good quality. It would be so annoying if he thought he knew everything about everything and never ever admitted he was wrong about anything even when he- oooooh it makes sense now.
