Sorry, we're already infested with these guys. Applications are closed to weird reactionary losers with weird hair.

For some reason, I thought that wouldn't be a literal quote but I failed to bury my expectations from the NYT far enough into hell.

How many hours until the inevitable happens and some incel hires armed goons to stand outside some woman's house to intimidate her? Also, how long until one of these goons gets shot by the cops?

Those are five pages that might as well be blank. Calling this a "framework" is laughable. Just admit that you're party is scared to lose the last crumbs of power that it had and send another email asking for "$15 to fight [insert vague threat]!"

He's a very terrible person and should be tormented more. Everyone else was just incredibly wrong.

Oh no, I went to bed thinking I'd get to read the whole thing in the morning and instead got a cliffhanger! Cruel. Good story though.

The former. Ugh, exactly what we need is to import more aggrieved racist twits.

They aren't "embroiled in controversy" this was obviously going to be the case because they're fucking proud to be nazis.

"Government should be small enough to drown in a bathtub," has been their mantra for decades. This is nothing new but now they finally have people who aren't politicians in power who will smash everything.

I can't remember what we were discussing but my therapist just casually asked, "are you comfortable with your masculinity," and time dilated as I struggled to say yes in a convincing way. It still took a couple years for it to click though.
I did try out gender fluid first but it didn't fit.

They are the most lesson-averse bunch of losers.

Great, thanks for nothing here.

You lost to the world's dumbest and cruelest people because your party couldn't even fake an ounce of sympathy for the people actually under threat or actively being murdered. Take your giant check for being a massive loser and fuck off.

Then stop ushering this farce along? Seems like you could do that rather than keep the appointments flowing, you dork.

They could act like they understand the urgency and gravity of the situation and not drag their feet. Defend those of us currently being stripped of civil rights. Make every appointment a painful process to complete and not vote for appointees. Curb the defeatist rhetoric of the worst of their base.

Gosh, I hope you can find someone with some kind of ability to do something.

A better question would be why did the Dems continue to aid and abet a genocide rather than doing literally anything to stop it?

There's a dozen comedy writers trying to drink themselves to death after reading this.

Yeah, I don't think they'd intentionally blast a city. It's the resumption of tests when the effects from the previous era are still being studied. Like with the train explosion in E. Palestine a few years ago, the uptake of chemicals into the air stream spread them wide.

I don't even know what to say or do except to offer a hug. These people just want as much death and pain as they can load up on.

Turning a massive valve that says "ocean" on it and constantly looking back at the fires for approval like a contestant on the price is right.

That opened a number of confusing doors that I quickly shut and tried to forget about. I tried being as masc as I could but I never quite recognized the person in the mirror. It wasn't until a therapist off-handedly asked if I was comfortable in my masculinity that pieces began falling into place.

It really isn't boneheaded. Some people just seem to know. That wasn't me. When I was a kid I remember feeling horror around my body that faded somewhat as I got older into just a general revulsion. I didn't really make a connection to my gender being off until I tried cross dressing.

Sure. Can you tell me how long we should continue to grant them the benefit of the doubt? How high do you want the bodies stacked before we can finally say, "you know, I think those guys might be nazis." Just a ballpark number.

Fuck bipartisanship. You're going to bipartsanly kill a whole lot of us and make the planet a living hell for the survivors. Stop being a fucking stooge.
