Thanks! Penny Silpusher would have been a Numbers Fuckstein ten years ago, and is just really out of touch with the modern political reality.

After being inspired by the recent collaboration between @jj-mccullough.bsky.social and @ryangeddie.bsky.social, I decided to make my own American political archetypes meme inspired by the art of @beanytuesday.bsky.social. I'm not the best artist, but I like the personality I put into these.

Given the disgusting amount of silencing that corporate America has been throwing around at anyone daring to say the truth about how horrible Charlie Kirk was in life, it makes one wonder how far they will bend over backwards to sanitize the legacy of the bastard at the top when he finally bites it.

Charlie Kirk died in a fire that he spent the better portion of his life continuously dumping gasoline on.

In 2028, some Democrat will have to run for president on a single issue "Pack the Court" platform, even if they have no intention on winning the primary, just for the sake of normalizing the demand for it. No progressive reforms will be safe so long as this supermajority is allowed to continue.

I found this in the lending library in my neighborhood. I exchanged for it with a copy of 1984.

In late Feb I found a katydid in a box of kale at the store I work at. It was too cold to release him then, so I took him in until it would be warm enough. I named him Baker, and have been taking care of him for the last 3 months. Today, I finally let him go. His adventures will be beyond our scope.

Star Trek handling politics in cringy ways... noooo... Star Trek has NEVER in its entire run made political takes that could age in ways that might seem cringy in retrospect. PERISH the THOUGHT. 🙄 lol

When he probably realized that all the money in the world didn't make him any happier, he decided that it wasn't enough for him to be rich. Everyone else must be made even poorer now.

Watch anything but the inauguration today. Just set your cable box to something stupid if you still have one. He's gonna be paying attention to his ratings.
