Bring as many fired federal workers from your home state as possible

This just all feels like some dumb sci-fi alt-history where the Confederacy won and formed an alliance with the Soviets

sorry for 2017posting but

NOAA Cuts Leave Wind Chimes As Sole Predictor Of Approaching Hurricanes

we're going to get such a stupid recession and such a stupid war

this is so honestly psychotic. how anyone see this and think this is projecting power or strength is beyond me

You know, the right wing lost their mind about how Obama did an "apology tour" after GWB, but that's going to be nothing compared to what the next President has to do to undo the damage that these assholes have managed in less than a month and a half

President Trump’s simpering fealty to Vladimir Putin and Russia is embarrassing and dangerous. Illinois stands with Ukraine, and so should the White House.

“And I’ll have that done — I’ll have that done in 24 hours.” 30+ days in: - No deal signed - Ukrainians leaving White House in a rage - The Kremlin jerking off into the Gulf of America Excellent work Mr. President 🫡

We're going to lose Canada and Mexico and Europe very, very soon if Trump and Vance aren't careful after this Zelensky disaster. I don't expect they will be careful. We're about to be on a geopolitical island in the middle of North America.

It’s so far from the most important thing but this country re-electing a man who is clearly a petulant child is so infuriating

Watching Putin’s little stooges try to bully Zelenskyy in our goddamned White House is pretty repulsive.

When Karl Rove is correctly calling out your foreign policy, you know things are really messed up

who told this pampered asshole he has the right to speak to anyone like this?

Putin's stooge. Always was.

No one deserves a more merciless ass-kicking than JD.

this encapsulates what all of this administration is about. they aren’t “accidentally” destroying departments. they are intentionally destroying the government so they can become the government. the only issue they have with the system is they don’t profit from it or control it

They fucking suck so much

Part of the lesson here is that Trumpists, like many bullies, don’t handle it well if you stand up to them rather than caving. If Trump or Vance or their supporters had any character this petulant display and Zelenskyy’s defiance would be humiliating to them.

i would be fired for treating customers with this much contempt at any job i have ever had

If we, as Democrats, can't find someone who: a) can communicate b) is willing to throw punches, and c) is *not* a sexual predator, then our bench is too shallow and we should throw in the towel and stop being a political party.

these terminations are good evidence that this is just wanton destruction by deranged ideologues. there is no rhyme or reason other than whatever makes sense to a bunch of zoomer nazis and their bosses and enablers

"Chat shit get banged"

Enlightened is just a less sci fi Severance

this is the way

Wait, wut?!

Damn, missing a fun one at Capitol One

Me watching Severance:

Scott after Invincible

Amanda Seyfried getting a small role in Twin Peaks after being Lilly Kane is a nice touch

I texted a friend today about seeing it at our local Alamo on a date that still doesn’t even have showtimes listed yet

(guy whose business is entirely government contracts) we’re going to run the government like a business

if Dave Portnoy is in position to take the moral high ground on you, you fucked up

If Mickey 17 isn't good or is annoying in any way it's going to be a problem. I'm going to have a problem with that. It's not going to be a good situation and I'm not going to be feeling the better for it.

find a real filmmaker who loves star wars and give them a green light to make their dream trilogy and give as much time to write/plan all 3 as they need. honestly would be fine just giving rian johnson his trilogy back. what it lacks right now is creative vision uncluttered by dreams of franchise $
