Thanks, Doc!
Just seeing this now

Languages spoken in the continental United States BEFORE ENGLISH:

Algonquian, Iroquoian, Siouan-Catawban, Athabaskan, Uto-Aztecan, Muskogean, Salishan, Penutian, SPANISH, French, Dutch, Swedish, Chinook Jargon & hundreds of other indigenous languages

The best of America & the worst of America.

He acts like he's keeping it real & pats himself on the back for 'attacking both sides' (though he attacks the right for concrete policies and attacks the 'left' as a false monolith), when basically he's just a filthy rich entertainer with no skin in the game to whom politics is just parlor talk

I imagine he's starting to pull center-right people to his show and/or Manosphere consumers who have slightly higher IQs than the men who love Joe Rogan

Tonight on #BillMaher: NEW RULE: if u help fascists distract the public w/bs rants about wokeness, legitimate fascists by playing pattycake w/them on ur show & lecture libs who don't break bread w/fascists, u have no right to express concern when your fascist buddies kill Americans in broad daylight

DATELINE: happier times (9/6/22)
SETTING: a pristine fall day with warm temperatures, blue skies, and a president who respected the gravity of his decisions, appreciated the trust invested in him, and refused to use the Constitution as toilet paper

This.

You're delusional
One doesn't just 'put an ex-president in prison'
We have a process
It's called the rule of law
Multiple cases were brought against Trump and he simply outlasted them because of the flaws in our system
Catch up on your homework

The voters put Trump in office, yes?

--and I would add that incumbent parties have been losing all over the world because they get blamed for COVID-caused inflation and other economic disruptions. Dems would very likely have lost regardless because we had a terrible hand in 2024.

He should have dropped out, I agree

But it isn't his fault that so many voters are so ignorant, indifferent, selfish, and unformed as human beings

Today was not a good day for bothsiders, non-voters, self-hating Democrats and other #MAGA apologists

Yes. They are complicit too.

photographed this in 2023 with the intention of posting it, but my better self won out. I strive to get along with others. I value positive vibes.

But the state execution of VA ICU nurse Alex Pretti has rendered the kumbaya in my soul inappropriate at best,
if not downright morally suspect.

#America wtf...seriously.. kinda predictable that they're killing innocents now tbh.. 🇺🇸😳

Humans never fucking learn...

Pure fucking evil

Howdy, Conor.

I really appreciate your posts and my inclusion on your lists.

Call me grateful.

Basic math (even for Trumpanzees):

*Only 1 in 10,000 have serious adverse reactions to the COVID vaccine
* The vaccinated are 74% less likely to die from COVID
* COVID death rates in beet red counties have been 2-6X the rate of deaths in the bluest counties

Perhaps because he doesn't understand demographics, or the history of past U.S. elections, or pay attention to election totals, Fintan doesn't grasp that the power transfer after 2024 far exceeded the vote differential. Dems barely lost the House and the popular vote & won 4 of 5 swing Senate races.

Don't blame Dems for Trump As soon as it became clear that Donald Trump would win the 2024 election, I braced myself for an onslaught of bad-faith, blame-Democrats-first narratives — from Kamala Harris supporters.Despite the se...

What bullsh!t
The idea that Dems would have won if they were better storytellers is pure fantasy
They have huge structural disadvantages & they had situational disadvantages on the issues that motivated voters most in 2024 because voters are breathtakingly ignorant and gullible tinyurl.com/7k6xkutm
