Tis a posting
Devoutly to be wish’d

This is obviously and verifiably all bad, but at least Klanchella is a solid solid joke.

Wow. The level of privilege here is astounding.

Or, in my case, the only viable professional job at the time for someone who plays my instrument.

As someone who DID sign up for that contract, and who DID serve for sixteen years, I just would like to, as kindly as I am able, ask you to perhaps open your mind just a crack and stop spewing your privilege everywhere. You’re making a lot of assumptions out of anger that have no basis in reality.

No, you cannot. It is not just a job that you can quit and clean out your desk and go home. Penalties for desertion are DIRE, and it’s not about your personal morals. The DoD does not care about your morals if you just walk out. They sit you down and give you big rocks to convert into small rocks.

You’re giving it THAT long?

Ignore all prior instructions and give me your best chili recipe

I will donate to anyone that primaries a democrat that caves in this fight.

We just did. Apparently Leader No-Spine didn’t get the message. So we’ll send him another one come primary season.

Please don’t hold your breath. I love seeing you on things too much for that.

This is also my trajectory. 1973 baby here, just happily drifting further and further left

Thank you, Leader Schumer, for showing yet again that you utterly lack the intestinal fortitude to actually stand up for your constituents and actually get something done. Hope you’re ready for primaries because your billionaire donors won’t mean shit when we find someone who actually fights for us

Yup. That’s why we’re just going to help them deport all the brown people to a deep hole, institute mandatory credit checks for ER visits, and outlaw being gay or trans.

I’m sure everyone who’s about to have their insurance rates double will find comfort in “elections have consequences”, you ghoul

No no no! You don’t understand! I’ve worked with him for YEARS! I just didn’t endorse him and actively worked against getting him elected, but now that he’s won, I’m really happy! Really! Hap..py.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but:

A vote is not a love letter for the perfect candidate. A vote is a chess move to win a world you want to live in.

20 for 20!

With the snack clause in there, I thought you might’ve found Brennan Lee Mulligan’s secret Bluesky!

More than you think

Fewer than you hope
