I predicted this during Trump I. 1: Make it harder to get HIV medication. 2: When people get sick, claim that "gays are dangerous" and start quarantining gay men

Dollars to donuts, I bet Putin's got dirt on Trump and Trump will do anything to keep us from finding out what that is

True... even in S1 I was thinking, what would a creepy messianic corporation do with this brain technology? Of course, there's no other option: use it to legitimize abuse

It says something that even Betty Bowers has dropped the schtick (and those years ago, it was a marvelous schtick) and is now just going directly to the heart of it. Fuck the prosperity gospel

The regret rate for gender affirming surgery is something like 0.5%. What's the regret rate for Trump voting? Don't have an exact figure but it's gotta be much higher than that

Rank and file right-wingers continue to obsess over USAID (0.3% of the budget) so naturally they completely miss this, where the real action is

How long before Trump gets fed up with Musk calling himself "unofficial President" and gives him the boot?

A longtime friend over on That Other Platform speculates that on-again-off-again tariffs could be basically an insider trading scheme. It's as plausible as anything else

This is *not* just a trans-rights issue. Give it a few years and I bet they'll check your social media to see if you're "loyal" or not
