In his words ….

“Well, they did sign up for it actually, and this is what I campaigned on.”

For all the people leaving maga saying, “we didn’t know it would be this bad, he deceived us.”

No he didn’t, he was pretty clear.

You just didn’t care until it affected you.

The museums are being shutdown.
Are we great yet?
Everyone’s being fired.
Are we great yet?
Food is rotting in our fields.
Are we great yet?
The market’s crashing greatly.
Diseases are now running rampant.
At what point aren’t we great?
Our military’s in line at food banks.
So super great.

You are a far better man than I, effendi— I’m blocking this stupid ofay peckerwood out of hand. 😉

My stepson produced a *magnificent* smoked brisket that’s resting on my counter as I type… and I think I’ve hit on a perfect dredge for thinly sliced onions for the deep fryer… 🤤

Silverman on Security @silvermansecurity.bsky.social · 8h

If someone who wasn’t insulated, as Thiel is, by his inordinate wealth, defense, Intel, & homeland security/law enforcement contract, regularly said these things they’d be under a 72 hour evaluatory hold for a suspected break with reality. His wealth gets him access, his delusions make him a danger.

What Thiel is saying about tax havens = what Altman is saying about copyright:

"I can't be rich unless you let me steal from you."

This is how Broligarchs differ from oligarchs of yore: the latter tried to hide their thievery; the Broligarchs trumpet their entitlement to steal as a natural right.

Hell, they want EVERYONE who is not a straight white Christian erased from public life.

in 2011, the president of antifa hired me to give fashion consultancy to the organization. i recommended everyone wear navy suits with tan shoes, dress sneakers, and golf polos with slim chinos. if you arrested everyone today wearing these things, you'd destroy antifa

Frederick Douglass said something about how one’s rights were contained by three boxes— the ballot box, the jury box, and the cartridge box.

Yes.

I’ve gotten to 77 days out and knowing how it came out… makes me straight up nauseous.

I want them both back.

The campaign against “antifa” is about establishing a beachhead for further attacks on speech and assembly rights. We see that today in the effort to preemptively label No Kings protesters as “terrorists.”

YOU ‘N’ ME BOTH! 😂

But I hang on to this (literal) Wyatt Earp quote:

“Fast is fine, but accuracy is final.” ✊🏾

Professor Bigfoot @professorbigfoot.bsky.social · 1d

I have a FB friend who is an instructor and a competitor (he swears by dry fire practice and I’m working on that part at home) but I swear in his videos, that brother is just *standing there,* and SUDDENLY😳 there’s a pistol in his hand.

Like got-DAYUM.😏

I’ll never be that quick, but…✊🏾

One thing that helps me deal with it is visiting my local gun range.

Focusing on the fundamentals of shooting accurately tends to be ultimately *relaxing.*

And of course, there’s the serendipitous: Bubba and Cletus, in the lanes next to me, get to see a Black man shoot better than them. 😉

It also pissed me off again, thinking about what the world could have had…

aw, who am I kidding? I have been pissed off since November 4 and will probably still be pissed off about it when I shuffle off this mortal coil and join the choir eternal…
