Only filling this in so that others don't think I'm a bot. I mean, would a bot say that? Probably. Anyways, I'm an open book not a cassette tape (yes I'm that old) if you want to know, ask.

This, too, shall pass. I'd be preaching to the choir if I said that it's rough out there. Take whatever little victories and respites you can get and hang in there. It may get worse but it will get better.

Now I have two sads. I miss Michael Clarke Duncan and decency.

You should always be careful how you treat your enemies. If you treat them well they may not reciprocate. If you treat them poorly they'll almost certainly reciprocate.

The leopards? It was a simple matter of outsmarting them. You see, leopards have a pre-set consumption limit. Knowing their weakness, I sent wave after wave of my own MAGAts at them until they reached their limit and passed out.

The truth is dangerous to those who seek to suppress it.

They believe it to be a zero sum game. If someone else gets it then they won't get it. On top of that they've been taught to hate others as a way of controlling them. The same reason they went after black people then is the same reason they're going after immigrants now. It's the boogieman.

Happens to all of us.
Also, hard agree that most MAGAts would rather burn in the fire they set than see people of color get out.

Who would have thought that the person who doesn't care about protocol wouldn't follow protocol? (The rest of us refer to it as the law.)

For like 99% of them (I'm being generous) it has nothing to do with the fetus or baby and everything to do with the woman. They don't care whether the kid lives or dies because they don't care about the kid at all - it's an afterthought. They only care about exerting control. It's all about control.

In my heart, I hope to see the day. In my head, I don't believe I ever will. Nothing short of a cultural uprising à la France will ever see justice really brought to bear.

To be glib for a moment. It's so simple. They just need to work harder and pull themselves up by their bootstraps.
For real though it amazes me that any first world country has a homelessness problem - especially the US.

That's a podcast to stop listening to if that's how they feel. Also, I would bet dollars to doughnuts the person who said that isn't on Medicaid.
It's sad how easily people can be persuaded to act against their own self interest. Some of us are all too eager to give away liberty for "security".

Wait...that's not the case? Man, my body count just dropped drastically. It went from 3 down to 0.

The same thing that happens to movies that were never put on VHS, or whose reels weren't kept, or a ton of videogames. You get the gist. They're effectively gone forever. It's sad but ultimately the same fate will befall all media.

Be careful what you wish for - that'll be ICE's new attire. On the upside, it'll be the first honest thing this administration would do.

I've thought about having super powers extensively and have come to the conclusion that I shouldn't have them. I would love to think that I'd use them to help others. Unfortunately, I'd mostly use it for petty revenge. I'd be the Z list villain the heroes would look at and just wonder why.

Of all the cabinet I think he's probably the only one who would know that. He just believes we (but mostly just MAGAts) are too stupid to realize it, imo.

You've got my vote. Assuming we still have elections by then.

Such a beautifully sad series finale. Easily one of my top 3 shows of all time.

It's absolutely brilliant but I'm afraid of the potential ramifications it could bring.

It really feels like they're trying to run down the clock hoping people forget and then they can quietly ignore the whole thing and pretend it didn't happen. We can't let them. We need to keep up on the story. Thank you for sticking with it!

It seems as if by design. You'd think he'd fail backwards into one competent pick eventually but not a single one yet.

Real or not, it's believable and that right there is a problem. The RFK thing, obviously, not the germ thing. Anyone who people could legitimately see doubting germ theory, without any evidence to rebut, probably isn't the best choice. Unless you want to kill people. He's doing so well at that.

I want so desperately to make a joke about DJT getting a Fanta Orange soda but I just can't seem to do that. My craving for Fanta Orange soda is too strong. First world, soon to be third world, problems; am I right?

That's the straw? That one? Of all the things he and his cronies have done, that's the line? The people's incompetence wasn't enough on its own. The fact that the ones that already are confirmed are acting against the Constitution wasn't enough. But that's the line. Better late than never I guess.

For 'normal' people if reality doesn't match the narrative then the narrative has to change. For MAGAts if reality doesn't fit the narrative then reality has to change.

It's not suicide if you murder them. Actually, nevermind. We win either way. Carry on.

My thoughts exactly. What does that say about the opposition if China is our best choice.

Right now, basically yes. They're essentially the gestapo. It's more or less a "it's only illegal if you get caught" type of situation. They aren't being held accountable and so this shit continues and escalates.

There are shitty people on both sides but, yeah, I could totally see there being less shitty atheists than shitty 'Christians'.

It's said that man is not saved by works alone but that right there is the main reason I'm a Deist and not a Christian. I can't believe that someone who may not believe but still acts godly would be turned away while someone who does 'believe' and acts like they do will get in. Doesn't compute.

That God fellow is so gullible. All I have to do is say sorry and, boom, all is forgiven. I don't even have to mean it! What a rube! Ok, let's go beat up some kids and say we're sorry afterwards.

So sad and so terribly true. I know it's implied but you forgot that women are disposable too (as they see them as property). Honestly, it's just a matter of time before lower class men are viewed as property as well - if they don't already.
