That's why I support nuking the whales.
Or we could increase our yearly billionaire sacrifice to the ocean god.

Thanks Microsoft. I am going to have to upgrade my computer now. However, Windows isn't being upgraded to 11 when it it comes to this.
We're literally watching the Democrat party continue to push right.

Wait. I get paid $47 to refer a friend to sign a petition to get bombarded with MAGA bullshit? Good thing. I am capable of making "real" good friends in swing states. I imagine they won't be bothered with getting spam emails.
Well yeah, it's called trickle down economics. The top 5% are all job creators, they invest in companies. It's not true that the 5% just let their wealth sit there and accumulate on an imaginary score board to beat the next richest person.
It's not like the richest people in the world are hurtling human civilization into a extinction level events to hoard more wealth.
It's not like the rich are looting this country to pad their bank accounts.
The rich are going to use all that money to benefit everyone./s

Frank is a busy man. Denying medical treatments, sitting on death panels. Is there nothing Frank can do?
Oh yeah, Frank can't approve medical treatment.
Ketamine doesn't allow you to jump like. That's unbridled love for fascism right there.
Don't worry, Republicans are making that a reality.
But in the past two years, child labor laws have entered the crosshairs of some lawmakers. At least 10 states have introduced or passed legislation loosening child labor protections, including New Hampshire. Now, Granite State children as young as 14 can work around alcohol and 16-year-olds can work an almost 40-hour week.
Freedom has only gotten me into a capitalism dystopian hellhole where the rich control everything.
So Satan it is.
Musk is a lot like Ben Shapiro in the sense that they are both a stupid person's idea of a smart person.
There is only one way to find out.
Damnatio memoriae
Yes, very much so.
Fun fact, Doom was running back when Margaret Thatcher was in politics.
I will give credit to Republicans on this. They spent decades playing thre ong game with the judiciary. Now, that Republicans achieve their goal. They are now engineering facts to get cases to SCOTUS. The only way to play, is don't appeal cases. Leave the cases at the trial level or first level appeal.
Fix the judiciary, then start taking these fucks all the to top.
I thought Monopoly ended when someone decides to flip the board and start a revolution.
Visiting Rome this week, Keir Starmer might have been expected to signal political differences with Giorgia Meloni. Instead he endorsed her approach to repressing migration, showing how much liberals have swallowed the far right’s agenda.
>This week, the prime minister is in Italy breaking bread with Giorgia Meloni, a leader who came to power at the head of a party built in the aftermath of World War II to maintain the legacy of Benito Mussolini and Italian fascism. Starmer says he wants to learn from and cooperate with Meloni’s approach to migration.
>It gets worse. Starmer and his foreign secretary, David Lammy, have also signaled that they will look to European arrangements with Libya and Syria for inspiration.
>The promise of social democrats and liberals was that they would restore decency to politics, not take policy tips from far-right governments. Rather than repeating the previous government’s strategy of migrant-baiting and brutality — which was a factor in mobs attempting to burn down people seeking asylum only weeks ago — Starmer should use his majority to chart a different course: one that meets our obligations to protect, rather than harm, people seeking safety and does not attempt to divide us by where we were born.

A photograph of Ernie smiling quite happily. Ernie is holding a plant.
Text underneath says I like to use my victims as fertilizer to grow small plants, which I then send to the victim's family as a condolence present. Most people neglect potted plants they receive as gifts. So, in a way, it's like they're letting their children die all over again.
