It's almost like the right's position is incoherent and indefensible, *especially* when they start trying to act like they give a single fuck about human lives. 🤔
"Recession indicator? This billionaire had to eat non-organic quinoa."
"Hard-Working billionaires finding it harder and harder to put caviar on their table in a true sign of the times."
"Price of Faberge eggs skyrockets as global diamond shortage hits most vulnerable among us."
Bondi's comment will go down in history as one of the most unhinged, delusional non sequiturs ever spoken under oath. That's like angrily asserting you bench over 300 lbs during your murder trial. I think it perfectly highlights the moral and psychological rot at the heart of Western capitalism.
I can already see the beginning of a Pixar movie that will ABSOLUTELY WRECK ME IN THE FIRST 6 MINUTES.
It needs to be said more often that the Epstein shit didn't die with him. Do the ultra-wealthy monsters who run the world get their kicks from a good book now instead? Hardly. The terrors are ongoing; they've just relocated. Justice under capitalism is mere marketing, as real as "Enjoy Coca-Cola!"
You only don't campaign from this *overwhelmingly-supported* position as a Dem unless you're complicit. At least that will be the assumption, so avoid and obfuscate at your own peril.
"In his obituary, there was an unprecedented use of the word 'ratchet.'"
because I'd like to think that Oprah and T-Swift aren't as bad as Elon, but the benefit of the doubt decreases with each new headline about seemingly-ubiquitous criminality among the ruling class.
but I think the wealth necessitates that psychological transformation in order to cope. Imagine the constant guilt you'd feel if you had any semblance of awareness and empathy left. I think the wealth necessarily murders that part of you. I think it's probably a spectrum...
It would be nice if the ultra wealthy weren't exclusively the worst people alive, but I know it's not a coincidence that that Venn diagram is a circle. Good human beings couldn't stomach such wealth hoarding while people go hungry. Maybe they didn't all start out as depraved sociopaths...
*Me, in my slut era*
"I would hold her hand in the grocery store."
*Me, in my slut era*
"I'd really like to give that person a hug."
I thought Nate was ramping up for a bit. It's actually crazy that there are people like him who speak words in public.
It's almost like they're a lawless street gang or something. 🙃
Over the past century, the Second Amendment has only meant two things:
•The right to *sell* arms
•And the right for white people to buy them
Politicians defend the right of capital accumulation and the right of chickenshit crackers to arm themselves to the teeth.
Anything else is a death sentence.
Another day started with a gang murder captured from multiple angles. Another adrenaline spike before I've checked my email. We're lab rats being drip-fed existential threats amid Temu ads. How has this become life?
I discovered Version History just recently and I've already viewed almost every episode on YT. Really great stuff.
American "conservatism" has taken such a caustic turn since the 70s that character actors, like Jennings, with his weaponized furrowed brow, are no longer cute or legitimate. He's not William F. Buckley espousing the merits of fiscal responsibility. He's carrying water for rapists & Nazis for money.
There was an elegant simplicity to the "life or level" trade-off system we used for single-player games during the 16 bit era. I don't ever remember someone telling me about it, but it seemed like every kid intrinsically knew it.
The sun doesn't seem to rise anymore. We peer through the plastic window made of rare earth and see only a dark and starless night. It's so inky black; my morning coffee. The incessant churn within the intestinal tract of Moloch is deafening and I can no longer hear my neighbor's cries for help.
Millennials have been labeled as "ungrateful" by older generations. We carry the knowledge that ours were the first parents to steal actual years of life expectancy from their own children. Either by greed, belligerence, or apathy, we've yet to be able to even begin fixing this most benevolent gift.
My toxic trait is buying the cheapest version of a thing that exists on Earth and still managing to be shocked by the shoddy construction.
RFK Jr. didn't have Bill Nye the Science Guy growing up and it shows.
Rick's a real one. 👏👏
Kinda wish everything wasn't Virtual Crystal Meth Slot Machine™️ brought to you by FanDuel and AIPAC or whatever.
No, it's because you shrank your audience down to only the most aggressively-liberal, Zionist, white, pothead Boomers without any real sense what's funny. You and Dennis Miller can run free at a farm upstate where comedians go when their material doesn't work past 1998.
