Greetings everyone! A brief introduction as one of my first posts: I’m Eric and 18 months ago I had the foresight of the US democracy collapsing and expatriated to Costa Rica 🇨🇷 the best decision ever. Follow me for tips on how to escape fascism—it’s easier and not as expensive as you think!

"A future president, even dumber than you, will allow Qatar, the country that harbored Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the architect of the plane attacks in NY, PA, and DC today, and whose royal family will help him escape capture by the US, to build a military base on US soil to train Qataris to fly jets."

You could be right, but her supporting extrajudicial killing whether Democratically elected or not is not ok. We have our own democratically elected fascist to contend with.

Eric @crexpat.bsky.social · 1d

Yes she’s a fascist

Her birth name is Mayerhoff but it doesn’t make her less of a lunatic

Did anyone notice that Shitler didn’t know the name of the Nobel prize winner and just referred to her as “the person who won the award”, he said he’s been talking to her, then why doesn’t he know her name?? Because it’s dementia!!

So sad to hear the Nobel Peace Prize a RWNJ Shitler lover who supports the extrajudicial killing of Venezuelans by the US and is also a Netanyahu supporter.

No unless they’re pushing 80—and I’m old so I get to be ageist.

The other candidate, his name escaped me, who will run against her in the primary is a much better option

Yeah let’s add another septuagenarian to the already bloated Senate gerontocracy 🙄 why not just retire with dignity??

Thank you Norway for giving Shitler a big L on his precious Nobel Peace Prize 🏆

The actual article here, by the way, which is more weird than bad, is accurately represented by the dek (🎁):

Essay | It’s Finally Time to Give Johnny Cash His Due

Compared to Dylan and Springsteen, the country-music legend can seem deeply uncool. It took years for me to appreciate his profound, plainspoken strength.

This brain-worm-addled idiot is going to kill us all. Early Circumcision causes autism 🙄

Acyn @acyn.bsky.social · 3d

RFK JR: There are many other confirmations -- there are two studies that show children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism. It’s highly likely because they are given Tylenol

Anna Paulina Mayerhoff you mean?

I had to unlike this because I saw Steely Dan at Coachella 10 years ago and they were really a group unless it was a mirage or the drugs 😂

With all the shit going on in the world, I’m so happy I have happy, friendly cats and dogs to keep me sane. Here’s Ramon Fiona and Greyson chilling together

I’m not sure if Thune is just a corrupt liar or stupid—maybe both

The Speaker of the House has firm views that Bad Bunny is a terrible pick for singing at the Super Bowl, but hasn't had time to watch the President's speech to our military leadership or form an opinion whether furloughed federal workers should be paid or Illinois' governor should be thrown in jail.

I think it’s a strong possibility. I don’t think Swalwell would post something untrue. But the cowardice of the GOP could keep the lid on.

This is probably why the Squeaker is stalling confirming Rep Grijalva, but that’s akin to the little Dutch boy sticking his finger in the dike to stem the flood.
