... is it bad that a deep, primal part of me *really* wants to squeeze that thing.

Why would they? They love him.

If *either* country had a functional legal system, both would be jailed for life.

"Go be quiet and rich" isn't a punishment, for god's sake.

Okay, for the uninitiated- what are they doing?

Don't use AI art.

Where the hell do you think "local" gets their materials, magic pixies?

We don't really make fabrics, plastics or parts here any more.

I mean, yeah? He's a Trump Nominee.

Is. Is this supposed to be a surprise?

We all know those paychecks aren't where they make their monwy anyway.

Mute or block and move on, mate. It doesn't really do to argue with these types- they're not arguing in good faith.

"All you have to do is look at all the polling" is not a citation.

A citation would be, say, posting the polls you're talking about.

Donald Trump?

And yet, we're I to write a story in which a corrupt president destroys the White House as he destroys the country, I'd be called heavy handed and too obvious.

"Airboats?"

The rat has realized the ship is sinking.

Tassyr @tassyr.bsky.social · 1d

Asi said elsewhere. If in one of my stories I wrote a president destroying the White House as an analogy as he destroys the US, I'd be called "unrealistically heavy handed."

AND YET.

Could it be... money?

Tassyr @tassyr.bsky.social · 2d

Customers and coworkers, yeah. I gotta get out of retail/hardware.

Tassyr @tassyr.bsky.social · 2d

Yanno if I wrote a president destroying the Whitehouse as an analogy for destroying the country into something, I'd be called "too heavy handed."

And fucking yet...

I think that estimate is low.

One of the worst parts of this for me has been how many family and friends I've had to cut because of how horrid they revealed themselves to be.

I seriously ended a 18 year friendship over this shit. And that one still burns to this day.

You have no idea how jealous I am of you right now.

I have no cat, and it's bright and too warm here right now. (And my bedroom window has a view of the apartment parking lot. XD)
