Normal non-fascist human beings do not talk about "eradicating" other human beings

worried that one of these days, i'll accidentally call hubert humphrey "humphroid" when talking to someone irl because that's exclusively how i refer to our 38th vice president in my head

"Oh."

peace, for a time

a friend of mine worked on a phenomenal campaign trail mod called, "ALL THE WAY". you play as Lyndon Johnson fighting for his political survival against the backdrop of Vietnam, civil rights, and his parties internal party divisions. easily one of the best campaigntrailshowcase.com/campaign-tra...

like clockwork once again andy byford achieved something amazing and paradigm-changing with almost no resources and was immediately undermined by the most dumbass politicians in history

Wrote a thing at how the Bukele/Trump meeting, full of absolute nonsense and bullshit in support of out-and-out fascism and despotism, is yet another dark day in America. www.techdirt.com/2025/04/14/t...

im on that kennedy revisionism where i think they were media-addled pretty boys who, through quirks of fate, had the ability to change the world in a way almost no one else could

i support any action that leads to the people in this video being put in front of an international criminal tribunal

i call my parents literally every week. it's a 20-minute conversation. i understand not wanting to talk to your parents, but, if they matter to you and you love them, how can you not bother to find the time?

been doing assisted pull-ups for a while and realized today that i really don't need the "assisted" part anymore

jesus. it looks like shapiro and his family really could have died here.

alternate history wikibox series where gorbachev tries to kiss bush during the malta summit but bush backs away kind of confused and gorbachev gets embarrassed because he clearly misread the signals and the press start asking about what the chairman was trying to do while gorbachev tries not to cry

folks, im so madly for adlai that i've been fired from the federal workforce by dwight d. eisenhower in his campaign against the dreaded homosexual menace

almost as though a lot of the energy behind trump's economic policies emerge from a crisis of masculinity, from men who feel their status threatened by and resentful of gains made by women in the workforce

my guess of what happens in a jeb! v. hilldawg 2016 race: * sets records in terms of low voter turnout * the victor's presidency is defined by apathy and malaise * RFK Jr. or someone similar rides into the COVID-infused 2020 election like a horseman of the apocalypse and hell follows after him

near-impossible for me to imagine the reality where everything went "as expected" and 2016 wound up being jeb! v. hilldawg

hey, is your friend: * wearing a mary magdalene saint pendant they got off Etsy? * carrying a collection of william blake’s poetry? * limping in blood-soaked shoes while reeking of acetone? then they might be saint maudmaxxing. make sure to check in on them this Palm Sunday, before they crash out.

i frequently find this site frustrating but those problems are not going to be rectified by seeking out the opinion of a white supremacist who contributed to project 2025

so is the idea that we're protecting big silicon valley companies while slowly flattening every small business owner that relies heavily on the de minimis exception

there's precious few, officially commissioned pieces of art depicting us presidents that i would consider "good" and unfortunately most of those are just jfk.
