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.

I'm always like "go ask one of your precious Euro-left parties how they feel about the Roma!" (Or, god forbid, you-know-who.)

Right, yeah. They're like the center-left parties of government in Europe with a smattering of "left" mixed in, and way less racist overall lol.

He doesn't make merry himself at Christmas and he can't afford to make idle people merry!

...okay wait that sounds like Riley Greene died. He did not. Just giving me cruel cruel hope.

First Wordle Problems @fwordleproblems.bsky.social · 1h

Riley Greene, man. I was already halfway through the stages of grief you guys; now I gotta start over.

Right, and we have those too; they’re just conceptualized as factions of the Democrats because that’s what we have. Our parties just aren’t even the same THING as parliamentary-style parties. (They can’t kick you out!)

Ha yeah it's wild. Though if you've seen pics of pre-beard Lincoln, the little girl had a point.

Missiles would be cool. But for top ten I wanna be able to drive the whole submarine for a bit.

First Wordle Problems @fwordleproblems.bsky.social · 2h

Ha yeah it totally could be. Certainly that's what I would have said before. "He is entirely hollow with no beliefs at all" has always been my default. It's just kinda come up a LOT lately, this "afterlife" thing, heh. So I'm wondering! But you're right it could just be bullshit.

ABSOLUTELY unkillable meme. And everybody online who says it thinks they're one of the few people in America who are hip to this OBVIOUS fact.

Oh man it will NEVER stop lol. And I ain't EVEN getting involved. That line of discourse is guaranteed to kill one third of whatever brain cells we might have left.

Yeah I mean the world stops existing when he dies, so I don't think he's concerned about his legacy, heh. Though he does want the Nobel Peace Prize? (I think because he believes it'll help him get into heaven. Not joking.)

Maybe? But his inner circle are the ones who NEED him! He's the brand. Who's Kristi Noem, say, without Trump? Or Stephen Miller? People hate that guy!

Also I have never understood what anyone could possbily blackmail the guy with. We already know he's the worst person in America lol.

And that's fine! I'm not making any kind of normative claim or scolding or anything. Nobody's gotta know everything. I'm just saying these are normal dynamics, not some kind of sinister strategy to overwhelm news-knowers on the internet.

"The more you know about the world, the more there IS to know" is a pretty reliable principle.

First Wordle Problems @fwordleproblems.bsky.social · 3h

I've seen stuff about ALL these things today, probably? Unless there have been MORE boat attacks that are just getting by us all.

Is this true? I mean, obviously more news is more stuff to know about. But, like, that's normal. The same people are keeping up with the news who always do, and the same people who don't pay attention still don't.

This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.

Ha yeah. I'm like "is he talking about...doctors?"

First Wordle Problems @fwordleproblems.bsky.social · 3h

Could just go with Darth Guinness then.

wait

I mean I'd love that but I don't see how. He ain't gonna RESIGN. And too many people are too dug in at this point.

But I'm fascinated to see what happens, yeah. I agree that it's a HUGE MESS for them and going to get huger.
