America has had its share of crooks (Warren G. Harding, Richard Nixon), bigots (Andrew Jackson, James Buchanan), and incompetents (Andrew Johnson, George W. Bush). But never before Donald Trump did we have a president who combined all these nefarious qualities.

How would Republicans restrict who gets to vote with a national ID? Maybe the criteria would shift back to outward characteristics again...

I can't even get AI to correctly create a formula for Excel 85% of the time. Introduce subjective creativity into a hallucinatory soup of plagiarized data and you're about as close to some literature as I am to God (I'm an atheist).

This meme always comes to mind when states make claims like this regarding war crimes, or during internal police investigations after they murder someone.

The Kalven report will always be used to mask UChicago's ambivalence to this regime's attacks. Until it impacts the bottom line. But even then, I'm sure we'd follow Columbia in acquiescing before resisting.

Currently exploring repainting my old 40K guys. Left is experimenting with layering (slightly sloppy). Right is dry brushing. Leaning towards dry brushing, but I prefer fantasy minis 🀷

Current WIP! Learning a bit about layering to create depth and shadow on cloaks.

At least they are saying the quiet part out loud. Not that these episodes are necessarily politically useful. But at least it rids them of the veneer of semantic gaslighting (in some cases) that has been so well weaponized against progressive politics and arguments.

Dear those identified above: the world doesn't revolve around your refusal to read. And please respect those behind the counter.

In case you were wondering, these are people that annoy me:

- Those who enter an establishment and exclaim, "you don't have Apple pay?!" and have no credit card.

- Those who refuse to read the "cashless establishment" sign (or visa-versa) and berate the person working the register.

Pros of a lobotomy: I get a grippy sock vacation forever.

Cons of a lobotomy: I can't think of any...

Mary mother of Jesus Christ... His holy self has indeed risen like a fucking grasshopper hopped up on methamphetamine. The cock canonical. The holy handful. Jesus's long loin of lean meat. Fucking hell, I think I'm born again!

Repainted this little guy from at least 16 years ago. Still working on saving enough to buy basing materials. But Army Painter paints are incredible. I fucking LOVE dwarves.

Type in a hashtag, add some nonsense like "political" and then a space after, then add more hashtags. You can then respond to your original message and type out longer form content :)

This. His claim today was rooted in the belief that no one other than a white man is qualified. #politics #trump #america #fuckfascists #dogwhistle

By the way, this account is unapologetically queer, anti-fascist and supports human rights. My art comes with an agenda.
