  • I don’t want Trump to be assassinated.

    I want him to die of a heart attack on the toilet or in prison, though I doubt the second one is possible because rich asshole.

    Assassinations make martyrs. I want his base to get tired of worshipping a feeble old man and move on.

    What I DON’T want is him being elevated as the Republican mascot on t-shirts and signs as the defacto symbol of their idiocy for the rest of MY life. When this cycle is over, I really don’t want to have to see his orange clown asshole face again, let alone as the newest iteration of the confederate battle/don’t tread on me flag they wave around town to be annoying for the next century.

    Let him be forgotten and fade into obscurity. It’s what he wouldn’t want the most.










  • I agree, this is just leftover momentum.

    Reaganomics was a bullet to this nation’s brain stem. Citizens United was just the capitalists pissing on the long dead corpse for fun.

    This place is just the command center for multinational oligarchs to wage war on the rest of humanity to increase short term profit expectations.



  • I just wish there were a way to preserve these records in a format with enough longevity to survive until the next sapient species evolves after we destroy ourselves and the human habitability of the planet for a couple million years.

    They could use the warning against indulging greed and willful ignorance, and we deserve to have others laughing at our species’ expense through time. We inherited paradise just to set it on fire eyes wide open. It’s an extremely low bar, but I hope the next global apex predator chooses to do better.

    I curse with abandon in front of my kid, not at him, just in conversation. Expletives are part of language, and are just more words for the toolbox, useful in adding a little spice or emphasis to a point.

    If a teacher ever contacts me to say they used a vulgar word, my first question that will inform my response, if any, will be "how did they use it, specifically?"

    I see our, the US’s, childish aversion to curse words as part of its childish puritanical roots based in wilfill ignorance. Guns all day, but ahhhhh dirty words! Ahhhhh boobies! Our response to such things are what’s embarrassing.

    If you want me to take anyone’s censorship of anything seriously in this cesspool, start by advocating censoring glorification of “muh 2A,” and maybe I’ll take you seriously.

    To be fair, there’s a lot of GREAT shows that needed a few episodes to a season to really find themselves.

    Rick and Morty took half a season, Supernatural was a slog for over a season until it started leaning into having fun instead of just brooding, the Doctor Who Reboot’s production values are distracting for the first season, on and on.

    Honestly, the best shows seem to need to go on a bit of a vision quest early on.
