Oh great, now some US states are gonna get jealous.

But Mug root beer isn’t even good. I’d rather just drink Pepto Bismol.

Musk’s said his new department can find 2 trillion dollars to cut… presumably so they can funnel it all into private hands instead.

And then wait for the next right-wing psychopath to buy up that one? You can’t jump off Twitter to another privately held platform and not expect the same to happen there sooner or later.

They don’t have to take away your power if you stop yourself from using it first. Don’t willingly give up your voice.

“Significant other”. It’s a stand-in for any partner (boy/girlfriend, husband/wife, commonlaw, fuckbuddy, etc)

If someone tells you of the power they will take, believe them.

If you’re honestly asking that, you haven’t been paying attention.

Trump has openly said he would be a dictator on day one of his presidency. He told American Christians that they won’t have to worry about voting again, and that he’d take care of all that. Republicans control the house, the senate, the presidency, and the supreme court. There is no one to appeal to when he tries (and he WILL try) to take complete control. And legal challenges will be brought before the SCOTUS, who will rule in his favour.

Freedom will not win by following the old rules. Those rules are gone. They were killed by Trump and his MAGA mob.

People aren’t paying attention. This is the last legitimate election the US will have. They control all three branches of government. The words in the constitution are meaningless if no one is there to uphold them.

We are experiencing history.

Sept 9, 1776 - Jan 20th, 2025.

They will control everything. Americans handed the fascists complete control over the legal system as well as the judicial system. Democracy is finished. There will be no free elections going forward. They made their choice.

Even once I had a great doctor who knew what I had, it still took nearly two years to find a medication that worked for me with side-effects that I could tolerate. It’s a long frustrating journey.

Not only wouldn’t he see a punishment, but he’d be elected a second time to do it again!

I read it as a jail thing. His body in jail because of their (jury) choice.

But now I realize it was probably rape.

Don’t worry, soon the entire country will get dragged down to their level!

Memento. Great movie.

Do they plan to go down the line and just keep choosing groups to demonize?

Yes, absolutely. Fascism requires an “out group” to demonize and scapegoat, and an “in group” that sticks together to hold their power. It’s an us-vs-them thing that only works if you’ve got a them to be the enemy. They’ll go down the list of minorities persecuting them as they go. Today it’s immigrants, trans, and pregnant women. Once they’re taken care of they can move into the rest, like Muslims (from Trump’s first presidency), gay people, and likely atheists, intellectuals/academics, the disabled, etc.

The Nazis in Germany did exactly the same thing the American Nazis are about to do.

A 20 year old car can be perfectly functional.

Not if the car manufacturers get their wish. They’d love to force you to buy a new car every few years. Having tech installed that becomes obsolete fast would help make you upgrade.

North is W
West is A
South is S
East is D

… unless you hit Q or E and rotated the camera, in which case you’re fucked.

Don’t worry, that can be sourced locally. Trump produces enough bullshit to supply the country.

They won’t, but they bought me a brand new shiny copy of Linux Mint.
