I wonder how many of the people killed in Mariopol got a proper burial.

The guys attacking their neighbors? If they got eaten by fish or pigs... proper burial enough for me.

They'll add all kinds of tripping hazards like dirt and grass, and just keep playing until they 🤷 well, they get turned into Vatnik soup.

Every once in a while, there are video shorts of Vatniks beating each other or throwing each other in pits, because that's what they like to do for fun.

I've got a new idea for a TV show: it's called "Vatnik Ninja Warrior". It's a really simple concept: they get orks on really difficult terrain, like a neighbor's country, and have them run from drones that are trying to turn them into Vatnik soup.

Lemons --> Lemonade.

Might as well dance around the fire to keep you warm. 😆

There's danger in believing that the administration is the monolithic force behind this perversion of our country. I'd argue that it's actually just one of the appendages of a much larger organization that has been pushing the world to the (alt-)right.

Regardless, if skill won't cut it, money will.

Can I humbly suggest: Send a message to your representatives in government demanding the ostracizing of the Trump regime. The US can rejoin the world stage once it has thrown off its sociopathic government.

Well, no war except against our own people.

A note about this pic: the guy being shot supposedly killed the shooter's friend and family. Now, this could be a story used to justify it after the fact. We'll never know the truth.

So here's the difference: we see clear video evidence of an extra-judicial killing with no war ongoing.

But Russian leverage increases when their 🍊🤡 is forcing everyone to pay attention to Greenland.

Now, I don't mean any offense to Greenland whatsoever, but... the world is falling apart and this clown, via slight of hand, is forcing people to pay attention to Greeeeennnnland. For Putin. 🤦

I did hear one rebuttal in favor of Trump when the TV news headline read: "Trump: I'm just asking for a place called Greenland":

It was short, succinct and dripping with the stupidity one would expect of an 🍊🤡 fluffer: "I guess we should leave it to China."

Like that's actually the dichotomy here.

I'm at the gym currently and he's on two of the four TVs in the place, vomiting forth whatever bullshit happens to be careening through the emptiness of his brain. Even the old (and statistically conservative) people here this time of day hate his guts.

This will all be over soon.

His bromance with dictators, his loathing of NATO, Greenland, Venezuela, his hatred of Obama (an erudite, accomplished black man is too big of a blow to Trump's ego, not to mention the WH Correspondents' dinner where O comically ripped 🍊🤡 a new one), every emoluments violation, etc etc ad infinitum.

I think 99% of Trump can be explained by four things:
- he has a room temperature IQ + an enormous inferiority complex,
- he is a massive bigot,
- he's a narcissistic sociopath and,
- everything on Epstein Island was video taped and he doesn't have the copies (supposition, not evidence-based)

No, if I were to translate this:

"Please. Be calm. I have a lot of money invested in the status quo. Because of this, coupled with the fact that my balls are so tiny one would need a scanning election microscope to find them, I have no control over what this 🍊🤡 man-child is doing. Think of my $."

Even as an American, as far as I'm concerned, Ukraine needs to find reliable partners in its defense. If that isn't America (because, let's be honest, the 🍊🤡 is not reliable by any means), I'm 100% down with our Baltic brothers supporting Ukraine.

I wish I had skills here to help.
