I am like Mrs Dalloway but after she said she would get the flowers herself she just was on the computer all day and never got the flowers at all, i will not be elaborating.

They gave it to Obama just to troll Bush and Americans who liked him. They would absolutely just give it to Obama AGAIN rather than give it to Trump. Honestly I hope they do that.

Yeah that’s what’s so funny. He doesn’t understand that there’s NO universe where he gets the fucking Nobel Peace Prize. Even if he personally ended every active conflict on earth. Every person on that committee would set themself on fire before they’d give it to him. He’s Donald Trump ffs!

I’m really happy about getting this “like” several weeks later. It means something.

Haven't seen a good one of these in a while. I was afraid we were losing our traditions!

Oh yes. This is the internet. If you say the c-word (not THAT one, the male-related one) they will flock around to dicksplain to you no matter the day or the hour. It's a whole-ass thing and I do NOT not know how people get super into it. But they do.

It works so well because even if that had NEVER HAPPENED, the existence of Nick Castellanos would still be funny. He is America's dumbasss older brother.

(Is this a hack bit now? I am still SO not tired of it. I am what I am.)

anyway not sure when i'll be picking up this keyboard again as there's a drive to left by Castellanos and that'll make it 1-0

The American Civil War stuff is at least better than the "Nazi" stuff, which carries a whiff of the obscene that makes me queasy every time. That just isn't stuff to play with in your online hypotheticals without sober thought.

I always tell people "we don't have the twentieth century's problems; we have our own. Those are more than enough. We need to be humble and get over ourselves and deal with what's in front of us."

Even in the tiny world of BlueSky where it's not real life, spreading distorted ideas and irrational fear makes people LESS effective for our side than they could be. Fear can be a motivator but it can also make people shut down. Fear sucks!

And (and this is the case for this being IMPORTANT, rather than just people like you or I taking an excuse to be pedantic and scold people) misunderstanding the scale and nature of what we're facing makes us less ABLE to face it properly.

Isn't that just "Christine"? (Not that that's a BAD thing!)

I actually briefly saw the promo clip of that Gein show and was like “oh how classy, nice” but I didn’t know it was Murphy. Of course it is.

These are weekend soldiers! Salesman and bookkeepers! Not riot cops or crack infantry. They don’t want to shoot anybody lol.

Do we think at any point any of them will have live ammunition in their weapons? I wouldn’t particularly bet on it. If I were a commander that would be the LAST thing I’d want.

But you will never live in the nineteenth century or god forbid in the twentieth and you should thank your gods every day. Hopefully your internet service doesn’t even go out at any point before 2029.

It’s crazy. People just have NO sense of what real violence is. And they accuse ME of not taking it seriously. I’m telling you it’s VERY BAD and you do not want it and speculating about it should not be fun!!
