Donald Trump is so hated across the globe that he has managed to influence elections away from people like him in: 1. Mexico; 2. Canada; 3. Australia; and 4 The Vatican. Donny, you're doing a heck of a job!

May thy 9th chip and shatter

May thy Ninth chip and shatter!!! 🗡️🗡️🗡️

I love living in the era of the business idiot. Multiple 3 trillion market cap companies forcing software down people's throats that they hate that has grown a near-cultural level of ridicule about its propensity for errors, all because they forgot how to do anything but chase quarterly growth

"Any socialist with money is a grifter and you shouldn't listen to them" was honestly a great move by the anti-socialists. Some real Tom Sawyer shit right there

people will make fun of ancient civilization for consulting oracles and cutting up livers to tell the future and then type “what is the meaning of life?” into ChatGPT

I feel the need to remind everyone that socialism is not a vow of poverty, but the exact opposite: it's looking at soft-handed owners and saying "where's the rest of my money, bitch"

“Evil is not committed by people who feel uncertain about their righteousness, who question their own motives, who worry about betraying themselves. The evil in this world is committed by…the self-righteous who…are unwilling to suffer the discomfort of significant self-examination.” ~ M. Scott Peck

OMG! Kanye incest post actually trended higher than the Pope

Will always bother me that Christianity took a holiday celebrating joyous sex and common fecundity and made it into a holiday about a torturous death and esoteric metaphysics. An interesting and creative conversion but a loss in many ways too.

you can tell my genetic line stands to inherit the Throne of Humanity by how I have to pay people to breed with me

Science does not work like this. The only way you can set a timeline is if you have rigged the results in advance.

People will always say they’re your friend and they support you no matter what but then they’ll say some toxic shit to you like “you have to let go of the cursed amulet, it’s changing who you are” and “don’t let its power corrupt you” all because they want the amulet for themselves

I have a theory that the reason cats and humans get along so well is that each of us is the only creature on Earth sufficiently defined by its *own* hubris to really understand the depths of the other's

I blame George W. Bush. He softened America up to the idea that we could have someone stupid in the White House and things would still function.

😂😂😂😂

If you’re new here, welcome. Our Antarctica Nudist Colony Government was formed after Seal hunters left our land around 1920. We occasionally allow scientists to study our 29 mammals, multiple seabirds, and limited flora, but have no permanent human settlement. Australia partially protects us 1/2

We’ve done this mass tariff thing 3 times in American history. 1828, 1930, 2025. All spaced about 100 years apart because everyone who remembers the last one needs to be dead for the next one to happen. The last two caused a depression. I hope this one makes us rich tho.

"We need to dramatically reduce shipping and international commerce to combat climate change and avoid things getting completely out of hand!" (monkey's paw curls)

inherited wealth breeds stupid, entitled people. there is no motive to work, to learn, to get an education, they pay their way into Ivy League schools and do nothing, get passed, and graduate with a degree they know nothing about; I could name examples but I don't have to. poison to the rest of us.

Corrupt judges let a criminal get away with treason and run for president. Propagandists masquerading as journalists lied to enough people that the criminal won. Then the criminal sold a half share in the presidency to the world's richest man, whom no one voted for. That's what happened, folks.

The funniest part of this era is that they’re disappearing people and plenty of folks are like “this is almost the end of democracy” like you need to collect all the McDonalds Monopoly pieces for it to count.

You see that these white men are full of resentment. They feel they should've been raised higher, that they were prevented from attaining their deserved status by women and nonwhite and disabled people. Now they're in these roles, you see why they never got there. Entitlement doesn't make you work.

I just want Americans to understand that the whole world is reading about Hegseth’s Signal chat disaster, and looking at your President’s incompetent response, and *laughing*. Everyone. Every corner of the world. The howls are ringing in the air. Your power & influence collapsed in a few emojis.

The reason the Trump administration has so many incompetent opportunists who make bad choices is because the only criterion for getting any of these jobs is that you've shown loyalty to Donald Trump—and that's a huge sign that you are an incompetent person who makes bad choices.

Text STOP to stop receiving classified military operations.

It is such a weird coincidence that I was put in the body and mind of the only person with an entirely correct worldview on planet earth

We should talk more about how the dominant approach of capitalist economists to controlling inflation is to periodically throw hundreds of thousands of people out of work and into misery. This is what passes for "economic stability" and it is madness.

#Billionaires are NOT " #job creators". #Workers are "billionaire creators"!

Technology is more like sleight of hand than magic. It *looks* like magic and can make people ooh and ahh, but with enough explanation anyone can understand how it works. But when people try to explain art they're mostly flailing. Art is alchemy. It is infusing the inert with the stuff of life.
