When the original Nintendo Wii came out in 2006 and got so popular with Seniors I was working in a store and had an older guy in shopping for his rest home. He asked what "Call of Duty" was, we said "It's an army game, you fight the Nazis." He goes "Eh, I already did that enough." 😅

You ever think about how there were dudes that probably saw loads of combat in WWII and then 20-odd years later were playing henchmen on BATMAN

Why is no one talking about the absolutely fucking obvious intention behind the deployment of federalized troops to America’s cities?

They are mustering to intimidate and suppress the vote in 2026. They will be dragging brown people out of polling places, doing violence, to disrupt the Blue Wave.

IN HONOR OF FRIENDSHIP MONTH:

djt: "We have certain things in common, Jeffrey."

Epstein: "Yes we do, come to think of it."

djt: "A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday- and may every day be another wonderful secret."

And by "wonderful secret", he means raping children.

To all my friends who live in California, early voting has started for the upcoming special election.

Vote YES on Proposition 50. If Republicans want to steal elections, it’s time we fight fire with fire.

I dunno who needs to hear this, but you're not actually angry at "Democrats giving illegals free health care" (which they aren't). You're angry at this stupid fucking country NOT giving YOU free health care.

I keep saying this.

There's not a single adult age Disney fan who actually likes the heads of the company. They like the artists and creators.

But A SHIT TON of adult Potter fans STILL LOOK UP TO JOANNE ROWLING and that makes a gigantic difference.

One of the most commonly-misunderstood things about "Disney Adults" is our feelings towards Disney executives.

I have yet to encounter a "Disney Adult" who doesn't absolutely LOATHE Disney executives with every last fiber of their being. That's what happens when you do the research.

I’m watching the 2002 Scooby Doo movie.

Scrappy Doo is the Jar Jar Binks of Scooby Doo.

In fact, the 2002 movie was like if George Lucas committed to Jar Jar being a Sith Lord.

I mean, I was momentarily pissed off about the whole "slaves and 9/11" thing, but I didn't know they had a CHILI'S! Boy do I feel stupid.

Shut it down.

None of the public relations stuff has gone the GQP way in months. Even the "Feel bad for Charlie Kirk!" news cycle IMMEDIATELY morphed into the "Bring back Jimmy Kimmel!" news cycle instead and now BOTH things are basically out of the main headlines.
They'll TACO a shutdown, too.
