A deep dish pie
Joints are sore
Blood pressure high
Pudding, flan
And crème brûlée
None are safe

That would be a great reason. But wouldn’t it be bone cancer at that point? I just meant that if it were only in his prostate, just ditch the thing before it spreads.

I cannot stress this enough - the people in the US government who are calling anti-fascists "terrorists" and "the enemy" are

FASCISTS!

Wake TF up.

I was diagnosed with prostate cancer at age 52. By 53 it was determined to be growing at a more rapid pace. I am not going to have any more kids in my 50s and beyond. I had the entire prostate removed, job done, no more cancer. Why suffer through radiation treatments in your 80s for a prostate?

Again, who calls anti-fascists "the enemy"?

Take all the time you need.

same-same but different 🙂

They're only interested in kids they can abuse. Johnson has no empathy to appeal to.

When you're not a billionaire, and you want billionaire money, you need to legislate in a way that pleases billionaires. Fuck constituents, we're done with elections anyway.

Because grifting and conflict of interest have replaced innovation and leadership as core American traits. How the mighty have fallen.

Salty_old_sailor @dirkfitch.bsky.social · 4d

How many people don't understand who exactly calls the anti-fascists their enemy? It is literally self-explanatory. Gravity, anti-gravity. Septic, anti-septic. Fascists, antifa.

Fucking DUH!

If there is an election in 2026, you'd damn well better vote. If there were ever a time to vote against fascism, it is now. Whatever you don't like about Dems, flipping the house and senate is the first step in unfucking this worsening mess. At least it buys time to get things right.

More because trump laundered money for the Russians, Mossad wanted to know for who and how exactly, it turns out the rich and powerful all share pedophilia as a hobby and Putin (and Mossad) thought getting that on film could be profitable. Trump raping kids is the tip of the iceberg.

Wouldn't it be great if more congress and senate representatives took their jobs seriously?

In addition to the world's largest for-profit prison system, bear in mind that the detention centers are also privately owned, government funded and will become in international source of slave labour and sex trafficking. All to make rich old white dudes richer, on the taxpayer dime.
