Mmmm tastes like nose candy.

I assume it’s in a baggie. But he’s got enough money maybe he’s just stuffing handfuls in his pockets every morning.

Dude thinks he’s just so smooth casually doing cocaine in public.

Just casually doing a little bit of cocaine at a SpaceX launch.

Jesus fucking Christ. This reminds me of “Whites Only” bathrooms and water fountains. It’s nothing more than trying to dehumanize people by attacking their basic needs.

And that goes for all the sniveling little pissants hiding behind their hurt feelings as the reason they’re still voting for Republicans: Fuck off. Every last one of you is a fucking liar.

You’re trash. You’ve always been trash. When liberals were polite, you were trash. When liberals got a little rude, you were still trash. Now that we’re tired of your shit and treating you like the trash you are, you’re mortally offended and blaming us for being trash? Get the fuck out of here.

I love this point about trash people being trash no matter how you treat them. When people say that being rude to Nazis only makes them Nazi even harder, I say fuck it. They’re gonna be Nazis no matter what.

We live in a world where we’re looking for Mitch McConnell to do the right thing? Oh yeah, we’re absolutely fucked.

Sunk cost fallacy hits people hard.

It’s true. I never deleted my reddit posts and comments because I spent like 13 years with that account. A part of my brain says “don’t delete those, you might need them later.” It’s like a natural hording instinct.

It’s always Projection, isn’t it?

Lol yeah, except the Apple guy’s name is actually Tim Cook. But then Trump called him Tim Apple and it became a meme.

His build up to the announcement cracked me up:

Lol all of that just makes Rubio seem sane. It’s crazy that it takes a leak from Iran to see things like “Trump shouldn’t be trusted with the nuclear codes” and “MAGA crazies are preventing Congress from passing meaningful legislation.”

I know! I hate myself for it but I can’t unsee it. I think it’s the chin that does it for me. That and the sleaziness…

On a random note, not sure how many Monkey Island fans there are around here, but I can’t see Matt Gaetz without seeing Stan the used boat salesman.

Shouldn’t this dude be in prison for sex trafficking?

I dunno about the parasite aspect, but I know COVID has been linked to brain damage. So if you think about it, a large percentage of the population being brain damaged is actually a good explanation for what happened with the election.

Looking at that COVID tracker, I was surprised to learn that earlier this year, we were at 10% of the peak deaths per week. It didn’t even make the news. There hasn’t been any major visible effort to increase vaccines. My family and I have got our update shots, but when I mentioned getting boosters to my coworkers they all shrugged off.

Seems like there’s a baseline level of death that people are just kind of ok with.

Related to what you said, but not necessarily this post: I was so damn frustrated with my neighborhood community the other day. We had a vote on whether or not to repurpose a huge grass field that takes up a ton of water and sees very little use. We’re wasting a ton of money (and water) watering this pristine empty field.

The main argument for keeping the field was “we waste water in other areas of the community as well. The common-area sprinklers were on when it rained the other day. We need to address all waste before making a decision about this empty field.”

There are a lot of people that don’t realize you can make incremental progress towards a goal.

Seriously great question at this point. In 2016 it was commonly accepted knowledge that if Putin released a video of Trump getting pissed on by a woman in a Moscow hotel, that would be the end of his political career.

Since then, he’s been found to be a rapist in court, has attempted to overthrow the government, and has been found guilty of about 3 dozen felonies with more charges pending - which doesn’t matter any way since Trump’s judges have granted him legal immunity to anything he wants to do. And he was just convincingly reelected with his party winning both the House and Senate.

At the point, Putin could put out a video of him personally pegging Trump, and it would make no difference.

Trump used to have sex with his “friend’s” wives. So this actually seems something he’d be used to.
