I've got a bad feeling about this, Charlie Brown.

A man's gotta know his limitations, Charlie Brown.

This is what they're gonna spend tax money doing. This is the priority for these dickheads.
Swell.

What day is it- would you please tell me?
What day is it- I'm confused you see!

I know it's a regional thing on the other side of the country but if a dude defends a Nazi tat then that speaks to both his judgment when he got it and his emotional maturity and priorities right now.
OK, you were a teenage edgelord. Did you grow the fuck up?
Not enough to own it and get rid of it.

The Gummies Of Navarone

I was also thinking of Twelve Hungry Men but that's food at one remove, not quite the same.

It's not as though it's some kind of state secret.
The guy admitted it FFS!

Yup. Same.

Ooooh. I'm glad I have a copy of this and if I didn't I would be very well advised to purchase one soonest.

YES.

It's delightful right up until it's horrifying. And yet it still manages to be very human.

Yeah, my long-distance friends are why I've stayed. Some of 'em go back to obscure platforms like OKCupid and Google+; FB is far from the best but it's where we all still go these days.

I'm sure you made some lobsters very, very happy.

I noticed (with some gratitude) the blocklist of Fed agencies that just set up here.
Just went through a similar thing over on FB. The Admin is making a social-media putsch, to salvage some relevance I guess.
Time for blocking.

Right??
I'm so terribly sorry your embrace of full-on genocidal Nazism has gotten some mild pushback, Mr. Fears, but then again fuck right off with that.

Oh, LA whiter than Houston, absolutely. Philly is a bit of a surprise though.

NOBODY has a good definition of communism, clearly. πŸ™„

It's like, "Bad Government Thingie", I can even hear Lyle Hutz saying it. Gods.

I mean, yes, Steve Bannon claims to be a Leninist (although Stalinist is probably closer.) Cheeto has no damn clue about any of it. Harris should know better.

Nahh, he's taken and betrayed multiple oaths, and he has to have finished medical school so he knows a thing or two. He knew Junior was slinging woo, he just knuckled under to El Queso Grande. Fuck that guy.

Every stage of MAGA involves anger in some load-bearing way.

The term "news" has apparently lost any remaining semiotic content. Now it just means "what somebody said, we think. Maybe."

Assuming it was out of shame or embarrassment probably gives too much benefit of the doubt.

There are ... a few... really awful assumptions in there. And some frankly horrific implications, too. 🀬

That does seem like a good time to emulate the wily opossum- or the clever hognose snake.

There's always an excuse. These things have happened (or, well, NOT-happened) pretty frequently before.
Some of the Devout fall away from the flock, some dig their heels in and remain POSITIVE that ANY DAY NOW... and some find different grifters to follow. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Oh man, it's that Star Trek bathroom graffiti joke all over, isn't it? πŸ˜‚

"Cartoonishly stupid" is on brand, that's for sure.

I guess it's the memetic equivalent of rolling tiny handfuls of snow down hillsides and seeing what happens.

Not that I would KNOW but is there not a (concern? Worry?Gleeful anticipation?) that one of your fellow authors is gonna have this kind of thing pop up in a story at some point and have to answer Awkward Questions in an interview?
