I think "woke" was at least partly identified with "irritating" and the way we're rectifying that in Woke 2 is by being scary instead

We all know it’s “Master P’s Theater.” Thank u

I've built a socioeconomic system that depends on everyone to do useful work and act ethically except the people at the top, who get unimaginable rewards for being antisocial frauds and criminals. And I think it will stand the test of time

Both sides of a conflict are calling each other evil and corrupt, rendering me, a humble journalist, helpless to discern the truth. Best I can do is let you know that both sides are in fact saying those things. Hope this helps

Ohh "America First" was a hit list

It frustrates me that all of a sudden these people know how to write a harsh headline when the bosses are mad at him.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A “TRADE DEFICIT”—IT’S JUST CALLED “BUYING THINGS.” YOU DO NOT HAVE A TRADE DEFICIT WITH YOUR DENTIST JUST BECAUSE HE NEVER BUYS ANYTHING FROM YOU.

In the movie Psycho, Janet Leigh stands directly under the shower head and then turns the water on. That is why the movie is called Psycho, one assumes. I turned it off. Stupid.

The fact that there might be a conclave so close to a movie about one has really motivated me to finish my screenplay "The Tech CEO Who Died of Diarrhea So Explosive The Coroner Said He Had No Lower Back to Speak Of"

Aside from the obvious direct harm, what's so irritating is that a handful of spoiled ignorant assholes are breaking things that we all built together. They weren't content to own almost everything, they had to wreck what little they didn't own. It's vandalism on a mass scale and has to be punished

the united states needs a cryptocurrency reserve in case it needs to import massive amounts of heroin without the united states detecting it or as a hedge against the collapse of the united states

Inbox: Statement from the American Meteorological Society says that firings at NOAA and other science-related agencies are "likely to cause irreparable harm and have far-reaching consequences for public safety, economic well-being, and the United States’ global leadership."

🧵The intersection of the Musk & Putin agendas are coming into focus. Here's what I think is happening. I hope I'm wrong.

Key to understand:

1. Trump=POTUS in Name Only (PINO), while Musk runs the US day to day.

2. Musk & Putin put T in office; many of his actions now are repayment of that debt.

Social Security is a scam. To protect seniors we must invest that money in Quagmire Coin, the only currency backed by the Giggity Protocol

Curdled Talcum

democrats are really going to convince themselves that “a return to normalcy” is what people want when its really “rebuild, investigate, imprison”

If you are a liberal in deep blue territory, one thing you could try doing right now is figuring out how to replace your Democratic member of Congress next year. With very few exceptions, the typical safe seat Dem is not meeting the moment. Find someone who will and help them.

How could that Trump voter have believed electing him would make IVF free? She must've been into fringey alternative media, maybe saw it from some influencer, professional media outlets would never oh no.

The last time Andrew Tate moved to a new country it was because he knew he could escape criminal charges there thanks to the corruption

Me: everything on my computer works great. I'm very happy with my system exactly as it is.

Tech companies: But what if ... it was different

i think an undervalued part of the "what's wrong with young men?" problem is there is a deliberate effort to create a lot of little shitheads, tbh

To him, they are both toys

The question I am really struggling with right now is:

What is "law & order" and the entire American constitutional order *for* if it isn't a Go Directly to Jail card for guys like Donald Trump and Elon Musk for doing *exactly* what they're doing right now?
