So many "green" things feel like sacrifices. Dishwashers are not one of them.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.
The month the Cybertruck was released I immediately saw two of them in my part of the city, always driven by the same two guys. I was shocked. "People are actually buying this thing!"
Almost two years later, I have never seen a third.
Itβs fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what heβs doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.

Why the fuck are Democrats trying to make Marjorie Taylor Greene a Democrat?
Maybe they should spend a bit more time accepting that Zohran Mamdani is in their party before going off about welcoming nazis.
