Smartass. Veteran. Sci-fi addict. Raised eyebrow that somehow achieved sentience and walks around eating too many snacks & quoting "Andor," "LotR," and "The Expanse."
The Venn diagram of guys who are super into the whole gorilla vs 100 men thing and guys who definitely need another adult in their life with power of attorney over them is one tiny circle that smells a lot like inadequacy.

People tryin to blame Trump and Musk for this absolute trainwreck of a timeline, and I'm embracing my inner Kenobi

Not entirely meaningless; the taxpayer money required for even the most basic shit to make this work (new road signs, for example), will be an excellent source of funds for the administration to embezzle.

There's a lot going on that's downright awful, so here's Jean-Claude Van Damme as R2-D2.

I'm sorry or you're welcome.

Musk is just that pathetic.

The "they'll-be-sorry" rhetoric from the left is just wild to me.

Like tens of millions of Americans--who, btw, are already getting screwed over and still voted for Trump (TWICE)--are gonna look at their grocery bills one random day & magically gain a shred of self-awareness.

Come on. Really?

Finally watching Severance, and...this is like if "Office Space" was written by Franz Kafka. While he was high. On bad weed. Like BAD weed. Something with a street name like "gorilla panic" or "how long has that van been there."

I'm all for "this is what Joe Strummer trained you for," but approaching it without at least an iota of realism is no longer an option.

By all means keep hope alive but don't get so lost in your optimism that you become blind to how badly you're getting fucked.

“For my next attention seeking trick, I will have you concentrate on Greenland, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Panama Canal—instead of my absurdly unqualified cabinet picks or that I have no real plans to fix the border or bring down food prices. Look, America, a rabbit!”

"Skeleton Crew" is the Goonies in space with a little extra Treasure Island and Peter Pan thrown in. It's a weird stew, but it kinda works.

Reductive lunacy that my brain cooked up: "the puritan cycle." (1) people find start feeling good about something, (2) a miserable, self-righteous gaggle of ass comes along and decides that no; we can't have that, because reasons, & (3) everyone gets sick of their shit and gives em the stanky boot.

It's almost like they know he's guilty and are stalling until he can be confirmed.

Almost.

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. Each year, the trans community loses too many lives, especially trans women of color, to hate and violence.

More than ever, we must stand by our trans family and support them, hold space for them, and insist the scapegoating and targeting stop.

Now.

Looking forward, one of the more darkly hilarious things about all of this is how many of my brethren were so willing to sell their country down the river to save $1 on eggs are the same ones who will lose their homes once the new "efficient" VA starts slashing disability. Sincerely, a vet.
